Israel has at least two platforms similar to AWACS, although much older in origin:

IAI Phalcon 707

E-2C Hawkeye

They need a JSTARS.

"JSTARS provides ground situation information through communication via secure data links with air force command posts, army mobile ground stations and centres of military analysis far from the point of conflict. JSTARS provides a picture of the ground situation equivalent to that of the air situation provided by AWACS. JSTARS is capable of determining the direction, speed and patterns of military activity of ground vehicles and helicopters."
