That's bigger than the American army.
In terms of what? manpower?
Manpower is an outdated definition, today's power in measured in equipment AND sophistication.
By that definition, not only are US enlistees better trained and equivalent in understanding of combat to a Pakistani NCO; they are also much much better equipped.

Being close observer of field PA forces since childhood though theoretically your comments look to be mor or less correct up to a decade ago but now even PA soldiers are at least matriculate. As many include having BA/BSC degrees and Masters. Now the professional soldier of PA is better trained and equipped more or less near to any modern force. Even Indian soldiers look not to be well equipped. The army soldiers have upgraded communications, protection and ammo. PA officers especially Engineers and Tech related personnel graduate from NUST. The medium to high level officers are getting higher qualifications from NDU.

However at macro level PA lacks hi tech equipment like Tanks, APCS, IFVs, limited number of drones and use of Satellite techs.

Considering Ive seen both less than a year ago; I certainly hope 1 year did miracles for the PA 'jawan'.

I observe them daily even after leaving cantonment and having business contact with them. You can check educational level by any pro.

I guess instead of increasing the number of soldiers we should go for quality, equip them with the best arms and the most moderm systems and also raise their salaries and support facilities. To cater for numbers we should revive the national guard program to train young men in the age group of 18 - 26 for one year or so.

600 of them have been converted to Al-zarrar standard and rest Type 69s are in the process of upgradation..
Those 1000+ Are those which are not upgraded to AZ standard.
We have 600 AZ and we are not going for further up gradation.

As per rest, they are given minor upgrades to make them capable enough to be used in Military operation as well as in FC.
