They should use Hamza ...I don't understand . We make Hamza, but we don't use it. They need drone aerial surveillance before entering the zone.But still don't give MRAP to our boys

HiLux is cardboard box ... we lost so many soldiers.Any estimate of how much the Hamza costs. If it is under $500,000 fully loaded it will be one of the most competitive MRAPs available.
Considering the terrain and the threats, Pakistan needs these in the thousands, to replace those Toyota Hylix pickups. Our troops deserve decent protection. An initial batch of a 1000 deployed to the highest risk areas will be a huge show of force to the enemy and a morale boost to our troops.
Alternatively, if the US has any spare MRAPs they are removing from Afghanistan, Pakistan should make an attempt to procure as many of them as possible, under the excess defense articles clause, similar to how the UAE bought over 4500 for only $556 Million
If a similar number and price can be acquired, even if Pakistan has to pay for them, it will be worth it. It would be even better if it could be paid for by CSF, but that might be hard to do under this presidency, despite Pakistan’s efforts in building regional stability.

This banana state cannot protect their soldiers and keeps sending them to their deaths in a Toyota Hilux without any backup support.Reports are coming of 6 more FC JAWANs have been martyred in an IED attack. They were taking some oil company staff on a visit.

UPDATE: Unfortunate news coming from Balochistan. My sources are now confirming the IED + gun attack claimed by UBA Monday evening in Bolan area. 6 FC soldiers have reportedly lost their lives and 4 wounded as per sources. Still officially unconfirmed though. #Pakistan

This was one of the images released by UBA purporting to show what was left of the Toyota open top vehicle that was targeted. Note the attack has been confirmed by local media sources but not by security sources yet. So I'll wait for that confirmation too. #Bolan #Pakistan

In other countries even death of a single soldier is properly investigated and cause and responsibility is fixed by the army internally as well as by civilian government. So the same does not happen again. But it seems there is no concept of accountability in Pakistan. This army of amateurs with short memory just make the same mistakes again and again year after year. Pakistani Generals are living in air conditioned palace with all luxury but can not provide basic gears to soldiers at war and dying mercilessly. If these dastard incident happened in other countries, the superior of those braved soldiered along with in-charge of FC Balochistan would have been court martialed for incompetency and criminal negligence. But in Pakistan we will hear bravado and chest thumping by generals and their fan clubs....
