Mexico sent a modernized air squadron of 36 pilots in P-47 Thunderbolt planes, known as the 201st Air squadron (Spanish: Escuadron 201).

It began in the 1950's when a population explosion undermined any effort by the government to provide basic services (water, electricity, health and education) for all people. Mexican population rose from 25.8 million in 1950 to 60.2 million in 1975 to 99.96 million in 2000. Nowadays Mexico has a population of over 113 million.
Rural migration into the cities and construction of many settlements were made on an unordered fashion; many towns and villages were settled almost overnight, so basic services such as electricity, water, social and security were not available until several years later or never at all.
This lack of basic services is known as spatial inequality.
