Can anyone give enlightment on the current status of the "Assault Breaker"
program? It was supposed to mount a sideways looking radar on a Boeing 707
and look down into the battlefield for 100+ kilometers. I think that 
maybe 1 or 2 planes are in engineering test at the moment in Europe, or were
going to be put on engineering test. 

I'm wondering how much trouble it would be to fly one of these off to the
Middle East to call targets for F-15/16/18s.
