On a serious note, I'm positive he's got an vz.58, the AK but betterguy was hardcore militant.

Ok I miss understood urban warfare is most difficult for any tank even Abrams T 80 have no answerUrban warfare for Pakistan he's talking about is Pakistani army dealing with its citizens and Taliban in Pakistani cities when they secretly shoot from buildings (what India has been facing in Kashmir) and not about an Indo Pakistan war which needs strategic and tactical battlefield capabilities, not urban warfare.
Do you have any records of operations?I have a photo of a turkish terrorist who was killed while trying to free nasrullah mansoor langriyal in 1995 from Kot Balwal Jail. Im trying to find it.
I believe the Israelis were modifying Merkava Mk 4 for urban warfare, don't know how successful they were. The Trophy APS was a part of that upgrade, and that was successful because the US Army bought it too.Ok I miss understood urban warfare is most difficult for any tank even Abrams T 80 have no answer
Yes but trophy cannot stop 4 consecutive in coming ATGM at same time or differ of 0.5 secI believe the Israelis were modifying Merkava Mk 4 for urban warfare, don't know how successful they were. The Trophy APS was a part of that upgrade, and that was successful because the US Army bought it too.
Yeah but in real combat stuff like that never happens. ATGMS are not a strategic weapon, they are not coordinated between users to fire salvos.Yes but trophy cannot stop 4 consecutive in coming ATGM at same time or differ of 0.5 sec
the greatest nightmare for any armoured formation is to enter a city and engage in urban warfare. You saw what happened with Lt col Alek's unit in Grozny. 1000 men went in with tanks and BMPs, a fraction of them came back in one pieceOk I miss understood urban warfare is most difficult for any tank even Abrams T 80 have no answer
The Battle of Baghdad was a one time event that would not be repeated elsewhere. The Thunder run does not work in other urban settings. There was no proper defense works prepared like in Ukraine. I imagine that in Pakistan it would be worse.the greatest nightmare for any armoured formation is to enter a city and engage in urban warfare.

May be army is preparing for a surprise attack,The endless series of muscle flexing on western front.
Saddam hussein attacked ahvaz on southern frontYes but trophy cannot stop 4 consecutive in coming ATGM at same time or differ of 0.5 sec
The endless series of muscle flexing on western front... This time the most bulky strike corps.... 35 yrs ago under sundarji doctrine it was mandated to cut Pakistan into two.
IMO these are to validate the newly-raised IBGs in the western sector. Eastern and Northern sector IBG concepts are already finalised and verified earlier this year.May be army is preparing for a surprise attack,
do exercises for months and suddenly you are doing exercises in Lahore and no one realizes it.
That's why the aim of armies is to fight as far away from urban areas as possible. It makes more sense to encircle a city and starve the defendersThe Battle of Baghdad was a one time event that would not be repeated elsewhere. The Thunder run does not work in other urban settings. There was no proper defense works prepared like in Ukraine. I imagine that in Pakistan it would be worse.
Yes a big lesson for tanks in Grozny learnedthe greatest nightmare for any armoured formation is to enter a city and engage in urban warfare. You saw what happened with Lt col Alek's unit in Grozny. 1000 men went in with tanks and BMPs, a fraction of them came back in one piece
