Having already operated three B737-200 in the "Maritime Patrol" role since 1983, the TNI-AU has since 2004 added five more 737's for passenger and VIP duties. They are of different versions and are assigned to Skadron Udara 17 based at Halim. A-7305 pictured here was manufactured in September 1993 and flew with Garuda Indonesia as PK-GWL till March 2011, before being transferred to the TNI-AU. It was involved in extracting 26 Indonesian Embassy staff plus a handful of Afghan and Phillippine nationals out of Kabul on August 19, 2021.
