NACHO81 seems to have landed here half an hour ago. Milspotters says "support ANG F-15s" but isn't NACHO the callsign for the bi-weekly NATO AWACS AAR deployment?

No it isn't
NACHO81 (Mildenhall) NACHO71 (Geilenkirchen) can be used for other AAR as well.
ESSO's are NATO AWACS

Main difference between those 2 that ESSO is operating as a ANG unit and are not allowed to perform any other AAR than NATO E-3
NACHO, although ANG, are on operational status and are allowed to perform AAR with other receivers as well.
