Pakistan Army Aviation Corps - Updated

The three other things I could spot were the hangars, the runway and the pictures over the city!

Still no...the PAF pens could be a sign, but they are too general.

Hint: The nishani is in a pic in which the cobra is coming back towards the hangars and is in the air and nishani will be under the cobra...a couple more guesses?
