I think this are the 130mm M-59IIM, the firing Position looks well prepared, it shows the dicipline of the Pakistani Gunners. What I cant understand is why they ise blue sand sacks whick can bee seen from 100 of meters by the Enemy.

Pakitani military personnels man long-range guns mounted on ditches along the Pakistan and Afghanistan border near Mohmand, 27 August 2003. Guns !

A 81mm Mortar, I think it is the M3 81mm Mortar, ituth African mortar based upon the French Hotchkiss-Brandt MO-81-61 mortar, adapted for local manufacture. The M3 81mm Mortar fires a 4.4 kgbomb between 100 metres and 5000 metres at a rate of fire of up to 15 rounds-per-minute.

Pakistani 122mm Rocket launcher mounted on a chinese Truck.

The Trucks are the chinese Dongfeng EQ240/2081E and EQ245/2100E or simple the russian Ural-375D.


Type 65/74 Twin-37mm Towed Anti-Aircraft Artillery

Type 59 57mm Towed Anti-Aircraft Artillery

When used in groups, the AA weapon can provide not only intensive anti-aircraft fire power, but also violent psychological effects on Indian aviation crews to reduce their effectiveness.

The blue sandbags were probably what was available to prepare the gun emplacement. These guns are usually deployed in secure rear locations where the chances of attack are fairly low due to the security around.

@HAIDER: what are specifications of M110A2s of PA and have they upgraded them to current standards?

These 8 inch SPHs are out of service with most armies. There are no upgrades ongoing for them. We are maintaining them to the standards originally built.
