View attachment 739721

Plz read below

Nasirabad District of Baluchistan is almost 115 KM from Gawadar Port, 86 km from Pak-Iran border crossing at Krumb, almost 35-36 km from Turbat Airport

but following part of this news article is more interesting.

Marked place seems to be Nazarabad not naseerabad / Nasirabad. Nuttal is north of DMJ on Highway N 65
 
during a survey in Sargodha, i found an abandoned air strip at opposite end of city from the airbase.

Salam.
There are actually three airfields around Sargodhs which are used as decoys. During war time old airframes can be parked there to give the impression of an active airbase.

Now the question is

PAF is planning to shift F-16 blk-52+ to this new base in Nasirababd, Baluchistan ..... ???
This airbase can monitor and block India oil and gas import if necessary. I am not saying PAF gonna do this, but at least it's capable during war time.
It's good bargaining chip, when India keep threatening to block Pakistan on maritime route.

How about Chinese acquired assets (rumored J10) placed closer to Gwadar ?

Gwadar is Pakistan territory, China only have commercial interest there FOR NOW.

Pakistan has acquired subs, 054A as well as JF-17, good enough to protect and block India oil and gas import.

India energy safety is in Pakistan's hand. That's nice.
 
To me it seems this might be a drone base to make it easier to keep security in Balochistan. Rather than have a drone take off from far away and be reported by terrorist observers giving plenty of time for escape. Having drones based closer to the area of ops will make a huge difference. Both tactical as well as logistical.

Google showing this place as Nasirabad

Nazarabad is 28 km west at the opposite bank of River Kech from Nasirabad

but in any case it seems this Nasirabad and Nazarabad is not place where PAF is interested to develop its air base .... Nasirabad in Dera Murad Jamali, Baluchistan which is near Jacobabad, Sindh is the place wehre PAF is interested ....

@Imran Khan and other are right here ....
