The Kawasaki RC-2 is an ELINT-operated aircraft that entered service in 2020.
It has a distinctly different silhouette from Kawasaki's C-2 transport aircraft and has been modified with an enlarged radome and the addition of a large radar sensor at the rear of the fuselage.
The RC-2's primary mission is said to be electronic intelligence gathering and radio frequency measurement, and it is said to have capabilities similar to those of the U.S. military's RC-135, but since these missions are usually conducted in secret, its specific operational capabilities are largely a mystery.
