Very interesting site in Quetta. -Many reinforced + underground storage bunkers -Next to Some Scout unit which is unlikely to use them & -One airbase hosting JF-17s and F-7s - ~12 km north-west to a large POL, general storage depot, XII Corps cant & another smaller airbase 40/n





JF-17s are under 36 Tactical Attack Wing. 3 Mirage squadrons with nuclear capable in Masroor are under 32 TAW. Seems like a bit of stretch, but this could be be another nuclear storage site, perhaps for Ra'ad ALCM + ballistic missiles. Also has a rail line, seems important

Any opinions?

China Begins Deliveries Of Z-10ME Helicopters To Pakistan
According to reports, China has begun delivering Z-10ME attack helicopters to Pakistan, a significant step forward in the two countries military ties. Pakistan could not obtain Turkish-made T129 ATAK attack helicopters due to a lack of approval from Washington, as American engines power the T129 ATAK helicopters.

Initially, Pakistan tested the Z-10ME helicopters and deemed them inferior to the T129 ATAK helicopters. As a result, Pakistan first opted for the T129 ATAK over the Chinese offering. However, due to the American unwillingness to deliver engines for the T129 ATAK and the ageing fleet of Bell AH-1 Cobra attack helicopters, Pakistan was forced to reevaluate its choice and finally put an order for the Chinese attack helicopters.

Z-10ME Helicopter
The Z-10ME is the most recent version of China’s Z-10 chopper. Its origins can be traced back to the 1990s when China attempted to construct its own attack helicopter. While the specifics of its development are unknown, some sources claim collaboration with the Russian Kamov helicopter design bureau, while others mention collaboration with Eurocopter and Agusta.

The Z-10ME improves on its predecessors in various ways. Notably, it has a lower infrared signature due to the engine exhaust nozzle being raised upwards. The helicopter has a more powerful WZ-9G engine, which improves performance. Improved inlet filtering, higher ammunition capacity, graphene armour panels, infrared jamming capabilities, and a new top-mounted fire control radar for IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) interrogation are among the other enhancements.

Pakistan May join Turkey's KAAN Fighter Jet Project
Pakistan may join Turkey’s KAAN fighter jet project with the latter stating it will open talks for the same with Islamabad.

The Pakistan Aeronautics Complex, Kamra (PAC-K) may partner with Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) for the purpose.

TAI announced during last week’s IDEF 2023 that Azerbaijan had joined the KAAN project without specifying the extent of its involvement. If Pakistan joins, it will be the second foreign partner.

“In this month we will be discussing with our Pakistani counterparts to officially include Pakistan in our National Fighter Jet Program,” Dr. Celal Sami TÜFEKCİ, Turkey’s Deputy Minister of National Defense, was quoted as saying by reports.

Pakistan already has experience in aircraft building with participation having successfully executed the JF-17 project along with China.

Pakistan has close relationship with Turkey in terms of defense technology. The JF-17 is kitted with a targeting pod from Turkish firm, Aselsan. Islamabad is reported to have purchased Turkish drones besides participating in warship building.

As per reports, Islamabad will be tasked with manufacturing multiple subsystems for the KAAN fighter.

All Pakistani Army, Nuclear and Air Force assets geo-located on Google Maps. Other units which haven't been geo-located yet available on http://jjamwal.in/yayavar/pakistani-armed-forces-order-of-battle-orbat/.

Coordinates of some units are displayed incorrectly after automated conversion from degree minutes into decimal. The degree minutes LAT LONG in details are correct in those cases.

The god of maps returns.

According to the global firepower index Pak's military is now 7th in the world, slowly rising from 2020. Why is this the case? Where has all the additional funding come from if they are on the FATF black list? China? Or is it just that other countries have been cutting down?

It is Fake. How did Pak Army's rank increased so rapidly without induction of any new system?
