[STRANGER BIRD]

good, we too have started inducting the Nag missile system, no Armour has survived a hit form Nag to date.

Indian Bakhtoo don't believe on it , because (this is indian weapons which is not reliable for fighting ) india always announce a successful test of missile like Akash, cannon Danush, tanks like Arjun, Ballistic Missile like Agni Series, Cruse Missile like Nerbay, assault Rifles, fighter jet like TEEEJUSSSSSSS etcccc, even now a imported mall is also not working in Endia like M-777 howitzer,all country using T90 tanks successfully but in india it is (TOSSS) same is SU 30 crash is higher only in india.

Pakistan-based Heavy Industries Taxila (HIT) may hand over the first batch of up to 30 Al-Khalid-I (Improved) main battle tanks (MBTs) to the Pakistan Army (PA) by the end of this year, a company spokesperson told Jane’s at the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) 2017 exhibition in London.

The MBT, which is an enhanced variant of the Al-Khalid MBT operated by the PA, entered series production in 2014-15 and is intended to gradually replace the service’s estimated 340 Al-Zarrar tanks, the spokesperson added.

According to HIT, the Al-Khalid-I features several improvements over the original tank. These include an improved muzzle reference system, an improved head mirror stabilised gunner’s sight and an improved commander’s sight that has a magnification of ×6 to ×10 and a field of view between 6° and 10° as opposed to that on the Al-Khalid, which has a magnification of ×6 and a 10° field of view.
