Proposed plans to Raise 2 new Corps in South Pakistan (Opinion)

Even better, fence all the borders, mine them, use high tech gadgets. whatever it takes to seal them completely. Stop terrorists, smugglers, and all other unwanted criminal scum from entering Pakistan.

Our defense always begins in our cities and towns and not at our borders. Nothing is changing......more security patrols (sitting ducks) in Toyota pickups, thus more canon fodder for terrorist IEDs. Somebody please wake up the neutrals to this reality. Stop meddling in politics and concentrate on your primary mission, no no not DHA plots, but something called security?
Size still matters along with adopting new tactics and new weapons
 
2 Corps needs to be raised in South Balochistan and South Sindh,

Corp HQ in Gwadar with Divisional HQ in Turbat and Panjgur.
Corp HQ in Pannu Aqil with Divisional HQ in Tharparkar and Umerkot.


Other than that FC Balochistan (specially south) needs to be more trained and more heavily armed with Advance technology.

Such plan was made during Gen. Musharaf's Era and was about to be done during Gen. Raheel Sharif's era as COAS, but instead of that Raheel Sharif went for raising a Division for CPEC Security.


one of the IMF condition is that Pakistan will not raise its army .
Guys not sure which world do u all live in. Pakistan cant raise due to western economic pressure..

But current COAS Mr. Bajwa has openly said that he will reduce size of Army to modernize it.

He is retiring in Nov , how is he going to implement such a big change in 6 months with massive political instability in the country.
 
Raise a Combat Aviation Brigade instead in Gwadar and use it in Baluchistan to fight a COIN war against BLF elements.

It can be composed of:

1 x Attack Squadron ( 24 x Z-10s split into 3 Companys of 8 each)

1 x Combat reconnaissance Squadron ( 12 x AH-1Fs split into 3 Companys of 4 each + 9 x Fennec split into 3 Companys of 3 each )

1 x Air Assault Squadron ( 24 x Mi-17s split into 3 Companys of 8 each)

1 x Special Ops Squadron ( 4 x Mi-24 + 4 x Mi-17 for SSG)

1 x Aviation Support Squadron ( 8 x Med Evac AW-139 + 4 x Mi17 with C4I C&C/EW capability)

What about Search and Patrolling Operations by the FC ??

What about being having fortified Security Check Posts by FC on the existing Highways and populated areas within the insrugency hit districts ?

See after the certain steps, KPK & Former FATA are much more peaceful than before.. We should learn from that .... Including the engagement of local population along with Infrastructure Development...
 
clear Yemen for SA.. then you can raise new corps. Plus, guard Yemen-Saudia border. Ask Saudia to bear the burden. Help them, if they want to be less dependent on the US. @MastanKhan
China is expanding. China doesn't only need Baluuchistan secured but also middle east. Convince Iran to stop supporting Houtis.

FC Modernization was actually being done during the era of Gen. Musharaf... After than Gen. Raheel Sharif did modernized FC quite a bit... But the actual modernization plan was never executed due to the "certain factors" ... FC Balochistan (South) actually needs Aviation Brigade as thoroughly mentioned by our colleague...

Pak-Iran Border fencing is under construction, but the Border Forts yet to be Guarded heavily along with the men and technology including cameras and drones... As it was done on Pak-Afghan Borde

FC was modernised during Musharraf era through US support. Raheel shareef’s operational plans had intensified use of FC especially in zarb e azab. It was in Bajwa tenure under the Ahsan Iqbal probably that FC was doubled in strength with north and south designations. 5 interior ministers have been changed since then.

. FC Balochistan (South) actually needs Aviation Brigade as thoroughly mentioned by our colleague...
FC had 9 x UH-1s which USA had asked MOI to retain but MOI sent them back and instead retained 3 x Cessna aircraft for VIP transport use.

Like I said, MOI is least bothered about FC.

Has MOI released a tender to get cameras and drones ?

Army has given FC it’s officers from major to Major Gens since FC officers lack the experience. Then Army gives training, artillery and tanks to FC.

What is MOI doing for upgrading FC ?
