Artillery Divisions of Pakistan Army

.
YES, Panter! The M109's form the back bone of our artillery/howitzer force sir.

We have one Panter sitting at School of Artillery-Nowshera. Not part of the course anymore and not being used anywhere. We initially planned to buy 72 of those and a trial order of 12 guns was also placed, 60 were to be made by HIT. I am not sure if any more were even delivered but i am sure that no other Panter is part of any unit. Just the one gun at Nowshera.

Also, now this don't make much sense but in case of Pakistan which have no extra cash to thrown around, the experience with Panter have been the main hindrance in Pakistan exploring any more Turkish artillery options like the Turkish version of Korean K-9, the T-155 Firtina.
Did PA loose any money in the Panter deal? Or its just that it did not meet our requirements at all?

Does Pakistan require further procurement of towed artillery to adopt an aggresive posture along the LOC and WB?

There are 3 x Armd Divs, 5-6 x RAPIDs, 7-8 x Indep Armd/Mech Bdes and 3 x Arty Divs.
How may K-9s are required to support all these forces minus induction in Arty Divs for now.
Yes but it's just an initial batch. If the follow up order is larger then it should worry us for this system outmatches everyo of our capability on paper. But only if inducted in larger numbers
