Battle of Asal Uttar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pakistan's invading force, consisting of the 1st Armoured Division and 11th Infantry Division, crossed the International Border and captured the Indian town of Khem Karan. After the seizure, the Indian Army regrouped and launched a counter attack. Indian troops flooded the area, which slowed the advance of the Pakistani tanks down and successfully brought them inside a horse-shoe formation, a trap where the advancing Pakistani troops were ambushed and repelled. 97 Pakistani tanks were either destroyed or captured while the Indians, by their account, lost only 12 tanks during this offensive.
Tanks were Centurions, Pattons, and AMX-13s.
