At the moment, No.

At the moment, No.

So basically it's Karachi. The focal point. The big base. The defense of the nation's coasts. The pride of the southern lands.

Nope - there is Ormara where a lot of assets are going to be moved.. not only for strategic purposes but because Karachi waters are soo polluted and toxic it is destroying the hulls and fittings of vessels especially subs.
