Part 4/8:
When examining the equipment and weaponry employed by Pakistan, it’s evident that while some systems may be outdated, the country is continually in the process of upgrading its arsenal, particularly through collaborations with China. Ground forces predominantly utilize the G3 rifle, a legacy from an earlier era, but one that serves adequate performance in the nation’s varied terrain.
The armored units include tanks like the Alca1, developed alongside Chinese technology, and the T-80 UD. As for the air force, Pakistan has relied on the F-16 but is increasingly transitioning to the FJ-17 Thunder, which allows for greater autonomy in upgrades compared to American-designed aircraft due to restrictions on technology transfer.
