Pakistan Army Future Infantry?

[Nadi]

With the world entering the 21st century, great strides have been made in technology, from civilian to military tech. Modern tanks, fighter jets, naval vessels all make the news from time to time but what remains somewhat secretive is the modern technology embedded with today's infantry. Below is an excerpt of all the work that has gone on around the world to bring about a hi-tech revolution to the way land war is fought by the infantry. One wonders if Pakistan Army is paying any attention to what is going around in this sphere.

The High-Tech Soldiers of the Future Are Here

fancy guns will never give you victory in any war ... its the courage and training of the soldier who holds the gun and step in battlefield .. our armed forces are well trained ...they are working on replacing their primary weapon ..

What if the "other side" is in possession of unmanned infantry fighting vehicles, drones and near invisible ghillie suits, where will bravery go then? our armed forces are lagging behind (not w.r.t India but the whole world).
A very simple solution would be to industrialize/privatize our defence industries, give them contracts and involve the educational universities in RandD...

at the moment the army is struggling to mechanize its infantry units esp. of the strike corps. individual future soldier concepts are a distant future in the army's scheme of things.....having said that, the special forces (SSG) do deserve to be considered for such.

It depends on the specific units. Yes, I highly doubt every infantry unit in the Army will make the transition, but those involved in counter-insurgency, maybe some on the eastern front and special forces? I'd say around 50 to 70,000 soldiers could make it, and that'd be the average number relative to most countries making the transition.
