Corps: A Corp in the Pakistani Army usually consists of two or more Divisions
and is commanded by a lieutenant general. Currently the Pakistani Army has 9
Corps.
Division: Each division is commanded by a major general, and usually holds three
Brigades including infantry, artillery, engineers and communications units in
addition to logistics (supply and service) support to sustain independent
action. It, however, does not include any armoured units. Those are attached
once the need arises. The most major of all ground force combat formations is
the infantry division. Such a division would primarily hold three infantry
brigades. There are 19 Infantry divisions, 2 Armored Divisions and 1 Artillery
Division in the Pakistani Army.
Brigade: A Brigade is under the command of a brigadier and comprises of three or
more Regiments of different units depending on its functionality. An independent
brigade would be one that primarily consists of an artillery unit, an infantry
unit, an armour unit and logistics to support its actions. Such a brigade is not
part of any division and is under direct command of a corps.
Regiment: Each regiment is commanded by a lieutenant colonel (in some cases a
colonel) and has roughly 600 to 900 soldiers under his command. This number
varies depending on the functionality of the regiment. A regiment comprises of
either four batteries (in case of artillery and air defence regiments -
generally named Papa, Quebec, Romeo, and Sierra) or four companies (in case of
infantry regiments - generally named Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, and Delta - and
other arms excluding armored units that are organized into squadrons) each under
the command of a major and comprising of individual subunits called sections
(which are further divisible into platoons and squads).
