Army is looking for a system for early warning of aircraft and land units, stand-off surveillance and intelligence gathering. AEW units will give the Army a valuable tactical battlefield asset, currently missing in its flying inventory. Smaller heliborne early warning units, like the Navy's Russian-built Ka-31 helicopters, will provide huge flexibility for precise applications. It is understood that the Army would prefer an indigenous solution, and has already begun discussions with companies including Bharat Electronics Ltd.

Dhruv AEW will be good for tank formations. It can move with tanks and give them early warning about the tanks or enemy ahead.
