M-113 and its variants are going to serve with the mechanised infantry for many years to come. thats the reality of it.

But @Rashid Mahmood says that Pakistan Army will replace M-113s in coming years.

Whats the reality than?

We need to ramp up the production of domestically produced high quality APC's.....

We have enough APCs and IFVs. We need MRAP for our Soldiers.As Hilux cant Protect our Soldiers from LEDs,Mines and C4s or Claymores.

Dear fatma M113 US ARMY discommisioned why we keep using systems which 30 Years old tech and which has been discommisioned we give our soldier something new oyr army still have 90 percent of systems old from rifles to tanks we use 30 years old weapons apart from al khalid and nukes everything is old

M113 is still used by US Marines and many other NATO countries like Turkey, Italy and Greece. It is till very relevant in our context. Pakistan is not the US and is not fighting US so it does not have to (in fact it cannot) match with advanced countries. Please do some research and understand the context before making broad and immature statements.

Israeli namer APC/IFV was also tested and was one of the contenders for US land forces APC/IFV but still did not fulfill completely all requirements. I don't think the following APC/IFV are barred for exports to country like Pakistan.

i have my serious doubts because we keep buying/building more and more M113's

Pakistan's primary focus is India and most all of our border is desert. Tracked vehicals like M113 or Talha are best for such environment. We must work to increase their capabilities.
Our requirement for wheeled vehicals are temperory. Our fight on terror is not going to last long. Best option is to get some free stuff from US for war on terror. While we invest our funds in something that will benefit us for longer time.

 

[Super Falcon]

Free stuff is out of order one hit from standat anti tank missile will destroy it no matter how much u upgade it it cannot be 21st century dear M 113 is not last tracked systems in the world and we need to keep balance in systems all of our border is not with india on desert so think also 8x8 whelled system they are faster than tracked we need both systems and of hi tech systems dont forget out soldiers are sitting inside those M 113 dont provide protection in futeristic wars it developed acordingly needs of 20 years ago requirements
Requirments has been changed now so dont always think of beggimg from usa free pieces of junk

 

[imranyounus]

M113 is old and outdated agreed need something better yes no questions.
But we are also not a rich country need to use our limited resources carefully for best output of mony.
where did you get your stuff like F 16, were those fully paid out of our pocket???? so must take reality as it is.
Getting few free stuff for war on terror will benefit us as it will release our resources for other equipments.

No matter what Funds is the only problem! otherwise throw in money to the best product developers European/US they'll provide with almost anything. Pakistan's economy is already destroyed by these two political parties for the last so many years.

Ye bhi skukar karo jo kuch hai yaar.

1,050 EDA M-113A2 were offered but only 69 were accepted as they were in poor condition. a further 550 EDA from the German army were offered but the delivery is uncertain....PK prefers to induct its HIT built M-113A5's.
