The Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of {{UsefulNotes/Pakistan}}.

Like their rivals, the [[IndiansWithIglas Indian Army]], the Pakistani military is directly descended from the [[KiplingsFinest British Indian Army]] before it was partitioned with the rest of India. It is among the largest military forces in the world. For their equipment, they use weaponry from several countries (notably the US and France), but increasingly rely on supplies from China, particularly for their air force. They are based in the garrison city of Rawalpindi, next door to the Pakistani capital of Islamabad.

'''Paramilitary Forces''' -

While technically not part of the military (the Interior Ministry officially commands them), the various paramilitary units in Pakistan are all officered by the Army (and in the case of the Coast Guard, the Navy) and as such are considered to be auxillary forces generally used for internal order.

- ''Pakistan Rangers'': Internal security force for Punjab and Sindh provinces, they handle border duties, reinforcements for local law enforcement, and handle security for monuments and important government structures in their area of operation.

- ''Frontier Corps'': Internal security force for Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan that is heavily involved in the War on Terror and the Balochistan Insurgency, having taken the brunt of enemy attacks. Handles all the same duties as the Rangers.

- ''Coast Guard'': Handles maritime security.

- ''Gilgit-Baltistan Scouts'': Internal security force for Pakistani-held Kashmir.

- ''National Guard'': Reserve military unit charged with law and order (when the other units can't do it for some reason) and air defence. Recruited locally.
