Frankly we don't need a navy. All we need is a coastguard and few token ships with subs to carry the "flag".AS you said the nuclear deterance almost insulates us against any attack. If India tried ( it could easily ) strangle Pakistan seaports in desperation Pakistan would fall back on nuclerar forces to force open the sea lanes. This would have far more effect than any number of ships we can afford.
I have said this before. Al the money saved should instead be spent on A-class internal security force along the lines of the Chinese Interior security forces. It should be equipped with heli, armoured vehicles and all the rest that is needed. This should then be used to get the country in order. This would then encourage CPEC investment and lead to multiplier effect. That is our priority.
Not buying these 'boy' toys.
Then why do you need, army and airforce for either ?
You can just have missile squadrons and a strategic forces command.
If India army attacks across the border, you can fall back on your nuclear option or if IAF bombs your cities, you can start firing nuclear missiles??
After all 50 nuclear bombs is a lot more deterence than an army of five hundred thousand.
But I wonder why Nations with thousands of nuclear bombs, continue to hace such massive armies, airforce and navy's?
