Transfer of Power by Lord Mountbatten took place on 14th Aug in Karachi but as per the Indian Independence Act, India and Pakistan were to be created on 15th Aug so this transfer of power was not official/implemented until midnight 15th Aug 1947 which is when the Dominions of Pakistan as well as...

And while we are on this subject, how about George V or Edward VII or Queen Victoria. Sure they are not Natives of South Asia, but so is Babur and he's on the list.

I always detest when I see "Great" and "Emperor" in the same sentence, However, I was wondering why Harsha Verdhana was not on the list.

Are there any plans to transfer the Jet Squadron (Mirages) completely to PN that currently is operated for it by the PAF?

And what the range? How will these Lasers be pointed towards targets beyond visual range? Or targets behind a natural object?

Why Indeed ?? :unsure: maybe its a typo error and they missed a C or maybe "Covertly" may be relatively costly for what some may percieve to be a Low Priority thing.

I agree. PN should develope its own Sonar Technology as well as torpedoes and mines. But It won't. It would rather Buy all this stuff

Actually Halwara AFB is very close to Pakistan. This move is clealry to streghthen air combat capabilities vis-a-vis PAF.

PPP? seriously what does that got to do with the subject at hand here. Dont be a Troll. National Interests are paramount. China is with Pakistan as long it percieves this alliance/friendhsip as beneficial to its national interests (and current militray cooperation underlines that trend) just...

Achieving a range of 140 kilometers, Atlas Elektronik’s new heavyweight torpedo, SeaHake mod4 ER (extended range), has set a new world record, the Bremen-based company announced. Now, it is waiting for its first customer. While the sea trials were done in cooperation with the Bundeswehr...

Wow. I didnt knew so many knew or cared about Her. This thread is about Karachi, yet most posts on this page are from folks not even from Pakistan.

I'm not sure what u dumbcrack mean by trolling. However, This is relevant cz firstly, the name PAKSTAN didnt include Bengal and secondly this name formed the basis of who we are as a nation, our national identity and it came from abroad (Ch. Rahmat Ali was in Oxford, I believe). Just wondering...

What, in your opinion, Pakistan would possibly be called, had Chaudhry Rahmat Ali not coined the term?
