Why is it Pakistani special Forces rarely wear gloves or modern helmets worn by other elite units? Is it due to cost?
They will eventually upgrade the helmets. Keep in mind that the military procurement moves at its own pace. They are not looking at the looks of things. If the existing helmets serve their purpose, they will go through the routine lifecycle. As new helmets are ordered, you will see changes.

On the gloves, it is not because of cost. In Pakistan, local industry can actually deliver on the military requirement for gloves. I think the issue is that gloves are not worn because the training is usually done without them. It is a matter of getting used to things.
