He said "Division plus" as far as i heard him. That's around 7000-8000 combat troops, and if support arms are included then 3000-4000 troops more. It depends now if Navy follows Army structure of an Infantry Division or has a lesser headcount in each formation.By the what is meant by a Division sized Marines I mean how many soldiers ??? Also Brigade of SSGN what that means ???
Brigade of SSG (N) means 3 x Battalions or roughly 12 x Company's (just like Zarrar is one Company of SSG). This would help in introducing more teams for roles of BEL Ops, underwater Ops, AT Ops like Zarrar ATU, VBSS, NIO, CQB, Air Assault Ops, Protection etc.
Three Naval bases have major deployments in future : Karachi, Ormara, Gwadar. So it can be expected that SSG(N) could have unit sized HQ's in each of these bases thus three battalions.
