Indian armed forces outnumber their Pakistani counterparts by more than a factor of two and they have advanced warfare systems in their inventory. The Indian military superiority has a considerable effect on Pakistani military doctrine and strategy.

As part of the Riposte strategy, Pakistani strike corps are expected to play a pivotal role in the offensive and defensive operations. Of the nine-army corps, six are permanently stationed in proximity to the “Line of Control” with India. The primary mission assigned to these army corps is to counter Indian armed forces; however, Pakistan has periodically dispatched and redeployed these units to carry out counterinsurgency operations in tribal regions. Pakistani Army I and II Corps are essentially armored strike corps specifically equipped to punch a hole in Indian defenses and penetrate deep within the Indian Territory as part of Riposte’s strategy.
