Do it can carry any torpedos too

Do it can carry any torpedos too

The P-3 can carry several light weight torpedoes in its internal weapons bay:

The commonly used MK46 light weight, aerial capable torpedo is in service with the Pakistan Navy as well.

Torpedoes are carried internally, but externally mines or missile may be carried, such as this Harpoon:

And MK62 Quick strike Mine:

The internal bay can also accommodate non-munition equipment, such as this air-launched rescue kit - Note: this aircraft is a P-3 derivative called ARIES:

The P-3 was designed as a sub-hunter and they are very well equipped to deal with a submarine threat, and surface ships for good measure, some even for land attack when armed with SLAM-ER:

@Oscar @Bilal Khan 777 , I would appreciate if you could lose some words, or even write a articel @Bilal Khan (Quwa) for this blast from the past,key points could be failures and countermeasures for the future,It's always amazing to read essays and summary written by you guys, 2 P3C Orions lost one heavily damaged ! Still unbelievable.

This is why I hate indians, they try to be all knowing and arrogant. The speculate about things that they know nothing about and above that they don´t even care to do some research about anything they say.
Saying some thing like"I don´t think so" make it so that Pakistan does not have that capability. That´s what indians live by these days.
