Defense Industry of Pakistan has the capability to produce 50 main battle tanks per year.

[Zarvan]

The Al-Khalid is a modern main battle tank developed and manufactured in Pakistan by the local company Heavy Industries Taxila for the Pakistan Army.
The heads of Pakistan Aeronautical Complex Kamra, Pakistan Ordnance Factories (POF) Wah Cantonment, heavy Industries Taxila (HIT) and Karachi Shipyard on Tuesday appeared before the Senate’s Standing Committee on Defence Production to give briefings on Pakistan’s defence production capability.

The officials said that over 100 armed vehicles or personnel carriers had been manufactured at HIT whereas manufacturing of Al Khalid main battle tanks in significant number was also under way. The officials cited funds scarcity as a relevant factor in this regard, saying at least Rs 80 million were required for the manufacturing of JF-17 Thunder.

Different agreements with other states for the production and subsequent exports of pistols, guns, sniper rifles and even battle tanks were under the negotiation stages with other states, the officials said adding that an agreement for the export of 110 Al Khalid Main Battle Tanks was signed with China.

The defence production officials argued that if the federal government provided continuous funding and support to the defence production sector, Pakistan’s defence exports could improve manifolds and the indigenous requirements could be fully met as well. The Senate panel’s session was chaired by Senator Saeeda, the committee’s chairperson.

We need to continue to develop both Al-Khalid and Al-Zarrar platforms into more advanced tanks and use them to build small support industries which produce components, software and electronics. This is what we need to do with the JF-17 as well.

Sir I don't know but I have a strong feeling that its Al-Khalid II is either MBT 3000 or another Tanks which China is building right now

and we also need Al-Khalid II fast

 

[A.Rafay]

We need to focus on Al-khalid II, expand our defense industry.

So does HIT producing AK-Is and heard some years ago that PA has about 600+ of them. I think they should have produced about 700+ of AK-Is. Also they should market AK-IIs if ready to Muslim countries especially IRAQ, LIBYA, ALGERIA, TUNISIA, YEMEN, OMAN, JORDAN and other GCC countries or even welcome them to join in the project.

Troubles in Ukraine can trouble Al-Khalid II progress......be aware .

What problems in Ukraine??? Explain in details.

Also HMC is fully capable of making engines just need a JV with German MTU or any other company and surely we will be able to make Engines for TANKS, APCs, TRUCKs, SHIPs and for other purposes and can start up over own industry. INSHA ALLAH.
