BROTHER THERE IS NO OFFICIAL SOURCE BUT I HAVE A WORD WITH INNER SOURCE FEW MONTHS AGO HE SAID THERE ARE TRIALS GOING ON IN THINK FROM THIS YEAR JANUARY BECAUSE PAK ARMY'S TOW ANTI TANK MISSILES ARE GETTING OLD SO TECH GETTING CHANGE AT FAST PACE
BRO TAKE MY WORD AND HAVE FAITH ON ME HJ 12 EXIST IN PA INVENTORY
God what an idiot. Won’t even bother to read what I said. When did I say being from the 80s makes something automatically obsolete? I specifically talk a about the case of tank ammo, where 80s means obsolete, and I already told you why. PA had BM42 in the 90s and has moved on from it thrice over with better ammo. IA is getting it in 2019 And even then half the fleet may not be able to use it.
This “leaked” information was basically already known beforehand by simple analysis, it just didn’t exist in clear cut text. i don’t see why he was making a big deal out of it is all, or why he was using it as a comparison to show that BM42 or Indian ammo isn’t outdated, especially through a Reddit post.
Don't spread rumors if you haven't strong backup this is a strict rule on this forum
You're just spreading rumours brother without any strong backup we don't believe only on your words brother
India's ATGM stocks are larger than Pakistan, mainly comprising of Konkurs, Milan ( both made in india) as well as smaller quantities Of Spike( frontline units) and Kornet. India also has 25,000 Invar Anti tank cannon launched missiles for T90 tanks, this missile has been made in india since 2013 . I don't think Pakistan has similar missile for it's tanks , even if it does the quantity may not be large enough.
Indian ATGM stocks are definitely larger and more advanced than Pakistani ones. However the size ratio (number of ATGMs per troops) is unknown to me, that would be the actual indicator because the Indian army is just substantially larger in general.
Thank you for pointing this out. But it conveys my point that the quantity of the stock isn't as large as the indian one. But you may be right about the troop to ATGM ratio because from what I know Pakistan army has HAT and LAT battalions at corps and division level respectively whereas IA dosen't have any such unit other than a few brigade of the guards battalions which have now been converted exclusively to mechanised infantry
Both the Indian and Pakistani forces don’t really have that much emphasis on tank launched ATGMs as a part of doctrine. Pakistan seems to have skipped them altogether with the VT-4, having not bought the GP-5 ATGM. So I assume Indian ATGM stocks are larger anyways, even with the several thousand Pakistan may have.
Let's not forget their many R&S units, both wheeled and tracked, which are fully equivalent to our LAT and HAT units. And then they have their separate Guards units.
What are this R and S units and what’s their equipment and mission ?
Reconnaissance and support, providing mobile anti tank support over very large frontage, platforms wheeled and tracked both.
R&S units are exclusive to RAPID and armoured divisions and not every fighting formation whereas in the case of PA , LAT units are held by every division. Guards units Have been operating as mechanised infantry for quite some time from what I know and not as dedicated anti tank units, I may be wrong.
