Airborne Warning and Control System
Play on your turn. From now on, any missile-based interceptor you fire has a 01-50 on d100 chance of shooting down a missile or bomber it normally could not.
(But it must be able to shoot down some bomber to be have a chance to shoot down any bomber; likewise missiles.)

Can be attacked like Atomic Cannon.
Additional Notes and Information:

AWACS (pronouced ay-wax) technology is one reason the United States generally enjoys overwhelming air superiority. It can't really shoot down ICBMs but then again, nothing can. The idea here is that a deployed AWACS would help coordinate and augment your nation's air defences.

There's nobody who has seriously proposed adding a radome on top of a B52, but I am limited in the number of distinct aircraft fuselages I can draw.
