KARACHI: Pakistan Air Force, in a landmark event in its history, inaugurated a newly established main operating base – PAF Base Bholari – earlier today (Monday).

The establishment of PAF Base Bholari would play a key role in safeguarding the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor project, said Chief of the Air Staff Air Chief Marshal Sohail Aman.

“Indeed, PAF Base Bholari is a project of strategic significance for capacity enhancement of Pakistan Air Force in operational domain both overland as well as at sea. With the establishment of the Base, PAF would be able to support the land operations of Pak Army more efficiently. More so, PAF Base Bholari would also augment and supplement the very important maritime operations carried out by Pak Navy,” Aman said while addressing the inauguration ceremony.

He further said that besides providing an aerial defence to the motherland, the base would also play a key role in socio-economic uplift of the adjoining areas by providing state of the art health services, quality education and employment to the locals.

The air base – located in North East of Karachi –is a significant milestone that will not only strengthen the defence of Karachi and coastline but also provide aerial support to the Pakistan Army and Navy for their land and maritime operations respectively.

You have nuclear bombs then why spending on conventional defences?
 
. . . . .
nuclear is last option for war against countries like US.

Also don't ever think for that in your dreams,

Did you know? One Ohio Class sub can wipe out Pakistan & surrounding areas from the MAP even while been docking in Diego Garcia.

It's more than 2.5 hours away so not very close to Karachi
How much in KMs?

Indians having to threaten us by saying the US will attack us just shows how much times have changed. India can no longer threaten us directly, so has to resort to roundabout methods.

The US people have no appetite for a war with North Korea, let alone Pakistan, so Indians can keep dreaming, but we will keep existing (And beating them at Cricket)
