Well if you believe SIPRI then we received 50 Walker Bulldog tanks in 1954-55.

Where is the no.16 based? Peshawar?

What exactly are the Improvised TOW Vehicles mentioned?

Even tho it isn't technically Cold War, that's a T29 heavy tank. And yes I play World of Tanks :lol:

That's a leopard 2 took me some though because I couldn't see the fume extractor Leopard 1

That's a T92, it was intended as a light tank for the US army but was never fielded. As for the second one I can't identify that cause I don't have a good view of the turret.

No I accidentally entered my DoB a month older so I am 16

uhhh yeah sorry about that. That's wrong I'm 16.

Nerdy 16 year old with an obsession for tanks, aircraft and animals. Currently studying O levels in Peshawar. Stumbled upon PakistanDefence while searching for pictures of Type 85 II AP tanks in Pakistani service.I'll never miss a chance of a good discussion. And I plan on becoming a pilot in...

Number 26 sqdn's (Peshawar AB) A-5 are currently in active reserves and are maintained in a flying condition. You can see them lined up against the taxiway if you have a flight to or from Peshawar airport. What improvement in capabilities does the block 2 thunder offer over the block 1?

sorry my bad. Btw what variant of the M48 do we have?

I wouldn't agree with you there. Iraq had a very large number of out-dated AFV's in the gulf war but they suffered immense losses; >6000 armored vehicles destroyed when facing coalition tanks.

A certain source also states 282 modernised T-55 sold to PA by Serbia, can anyone confirm this. What capabilities can obsolete cold-war era offer.

According to Wikipedia PA has M48's and T-55's in reserve. We can convert them to APC's and IFV's similar to what Israel has done to captured T-54/55's resulting in the Achzarit APC.

Does anyone have any info about Soviet-era BTR APC's in Pakistani service? So far I've only seen one BTR probably a 60 or 70 in photos, not sure if it's army or police.

According to Army Recognition: "New tracked armoured vehicle launched at IDEAS 2008 by the Pakistani company Heavy Industries Taxila. This company has developed a brand new Multi Purpose Tracked Vehicle (MPTV) called RAAD. The main purpose of this vehicle is reconnaissance, surveillance, and...

The JAS-39 is a good choice and according to at least one source the air force did consider procuring some before opting for the Block-52 viper. Anyone knows why they didn't take it ? Personally I'd like to see the Rafale being inducted into the air force, it's about time we receive new French...

Can anyone confirm the usage of BTR-80's in the PA

To anyone who's interested; I'm compiling a list of all British era and non-Muslim constructions in Peshawar, should be out in about a month. by the way I'm new here:wave:
