The article discusses the mobility and detection range provided by the Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) system. Military growth has been attained by India as the country acquires AEW&C assets to realize its aim of having a strategic reach from the Persian Gulf to the Malacca Straits. The Swedish Erieye AEW system has been fitted with four Saab 2000 aircraft destined for the Pakistan Air Force (PAF). Several countries which opted for the AEW&C system based on the Boeing 737 aircraft include Australia, Turkey, and South Korea.
