Not that I've ever heard of.

Way back at the dawn of time when I was flying, the AWACS was always placed far enough away from the exercise area to be safe. There was usually a screen of air-to-air assets that could protect it if the red team made a go at it. In the exercises I took part in and the exercises I monitored when I worked at Red Flag, I never saw the red team get anywhere close to AWACS.
