short comparison of the
land, air and Naval
forces of Pakistan VS India
O
n the occasion of Defence Day of Pakistan, we’ve
decided to do a short comparison of the Air, Land
and Naval forces of Pakistan against those of our
rival, India. From failed tank designs, laughable missile
‘capability’ to dud nuclear devices, it turns out Pakistan
has done well for itself despite arms embargoes and
sanctions from countries that have been lining up to offer
their equipment to India. Its never wise to underestimate
your foe – however this is intended to be a reality check
for the hawks accross the border who wondered why
India didn’t attack Pakistan in the aftermath of Mumbai.
At the same time, we intend to let those Pakistanis know
who wonder if we’ll be able to survive a conventional war
with India, that ALLAH is our protector.Pakistan and India have met on the battlefield many times in the last six
decades. On paper, it would seem to be no contest, but
reality paints a different picture. India may be five times
bigger and have more than twice as many soldiers and
weapons, but it has always been unable to overpower
Pakistan. Seeing Pakistan as a major obstacle to its
vain plans for regional hegemony, India wants nothing
more than to subjugate it. The fake ‘peace and friendship’ rhetoric is merely a cynical ploy.Bringing Pakistan
to heel is India’s most ardent wish, just like it has done
with most of its bordering neighbours.This is a fact that
has been proven beyond any doubt by the covert re-
bellions that India is actively stirring and sponsoring in
Baluchistan and the NWFP. Also, the staged incidents
and terrorist acts that resulted in India reflexively pointing a finger at Pakistan, only for the world to later realise
that it was an Indian hatched enterprise. The Mumbai
drama and the attack on the Indian parliament are cases in point. India looks for any excuse, no matter how
spurious, to destabilise, demoralise the Pakistani nation
and to stoke tensions and turn global opinion against
Pakistan. It is only Pakistan’s brave armed forces that
provide the necessary deterrence to prevent Indian adventurism. Highly capable, professional, well-equipped
and world-renowned, Pakistan’s armed forces strike
fear into the heart of the Indian generals who haven’t
fallen for their own bollywood propaganda. Throughout
the six decades of Pakistan’s existence, they have gone
from strength to strength, fighting, flying and sailing fearlessly to war in defence of the homeland. In comparison,
the Indian armed forces are bloated, arrogant and inefficient, a mere reflection of the national predilection for
pen-pushing, bullying and boasting. The atrocities committed by the vaunted Indian Army in its own country are
well documented. Their inhuman treatment of their own
people from the Assamese and Tamils to the Sikhs and
Marathis is a matter of record. The brutalisation of Kashmir is clear for the world to see. Only an invading force
