Iraqi Army receives Talha APCs.

Last posted:

The Multi-National Security Transition Command-Iraq (MNSTC-I) recently finalised the distribution to the Iraqi Army of Pakistan's Heavy Industry Taxila (HIT)-manufactured Talha tracked armoured personnel carriers (APCs).

HIT signed a contract with the Iraqi Ministry of Defence in November 2004 for delivery of 44 Talhas, 60 Al Mohafiz Security Vehicles and 300 Aahan Armoured Guard Posts.

The total value of the contract is about USD31 million.

Following initial deliveries in March 2005, the Iraqi Army distributed 14 Talhas to its 3rd Division, which is responsible for security in north-western Iraq, while the remaining 30 vehicles have been issued to 9th Mechanised Division based in Taji near Baghdad.
Iraq is the first export confirmed customer for the amphibious Talha. Equipped with mounts for 7.62 mm or 12.7 mm machine guns, the Talha APC was developed by HIT based on the BAE Systems Ground Systems Division (formerly United Defense) M113 APC manufactured in Pakistan on licence.

HIT said it has introduced about 90 design changes to increase the vehicle's capabilities. Reports from Pakistan suggest that the Pakistani Army placed a contract in 2002 for 250 Talhas that were to be delivered in 2005 and 2006. Until recently no confirmation of the Talha APC's production had been available.

In the interim, an undisclosed unit of the 1st Division, Iraqi Intervention Force (IIF) has become the first confirmed foreign user of the Mohafiz 4 x 4 armoured cars, also developed and manufactured by HIT.

Although the first example of the Mohafiz was based on a Toyota Land Cruiser chassis, the vehicles for the IIF were built on a Land Rover 110 chassis.

The overall shape of the hull also differs slightly from that of the Toyota Land Cruiser chassis. The Mohafiz can carry eight people and is equipped with up to 10 firing ports in its welded aluminium hull. The vehicle has a bulletproof windscreen and run flat tyres. A manually operated one-person turret armed with a 7.62 mm PK machine gun and a two-part roof hatch are mounted on the forward part of the roof.

Iraqi Army divisions have also received some 100 Aahan Armoured Guard Posts, while the remaining 200 will be distributed over the course of the next couple months, MNSTC-I sources said.

some detailed info on the Talha order to Iraq

apparantly the iraqis were not happy with the Al-Muhafiz security vehicles and the order was cancelled after 30 were delivered.

STOCKHOLM - Pakistan spent $735 million on import of arms in 2015, making it the tenth largest arms importer in the world.

According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) report, Pakistan slipped one place on the list of global arms importers as imports fell from $752million in 2014 to $735million last year.
However, the imports were significant enough to earn Pakistan a spot on the list of top global arms importer.

China and US remain the largest exporters of arms to Pakistan.
While the country imported arms worth $565m from China in 2015, showing a year-on-year increase of approximately 70 per cent from $394million in 2014, US exports to Pakistan declined sharply in 2015 from $189m in 2014 to $66m last year.

Pakistan remained the largest market for Chinese military goods as it accounted for 35 per cent of total China arms sales, followed by Bangladesh and Myanmar.

Despite losing its spot as the top global arms importer to Saudi Arabia, Pakistan’s next door neighbour India remained one of the largest arms importers with imports of arms worth $3.078 Billion.

Thank you very much honorable sir fatman17 and Mr. Quasar .
You have done a great, comprehensive, job for putting a lot of time, research,study,struggle in finding ,making a full,large size List of all weapons that Pakistan Army got in the past.
May I request to research,make and upload a list of weapons that Pakistan Army got in recent years like from 2001 until 2019.Which may include jet fighters, missiles, aircrafts,helicopters,gunships,radars,tank,canons, ships,frigates, etc.I am a non-militiar patriotic Pakistani since last 27 years in north america.I always pray for a clean,safe, justified Pakistan, as a super power, in the world today.
There are data on wikipedia about weapons by Pakistan Army but Wikipedia data is incorrect, incomplete,wrong and outdated. Wikipedia loaded more data for India than Pakistan.

Will try
 
That looks a raelly handy thing for point defense....

Another thing, on page 21, there is mention of conversion of 105mm T-59 turrets to 100mm for FC. Any idea why change the caliber?

Tons of ammo still available and fc or in mountains it’s not tank on tank battle but tanks use as quick on demand artillery so just use 100 mm which go upto 2-3km as penetrator against hardened target and twice against soft
 
Wow Amazing ....wonderful information dear ....Thanks lot
 
Now it's time to update the list again, as many years are passed now.
