About Defence & Armed Forces MCQs
This Pakistan Studies topic focuses on the country's armed forces and defence institutions. Sample questions ask about the first Pakistani Muslim Commander-in-Chief of the army, the highest rank in the Pakistan Army, the range and type of missiles such as the Hatf series and the Baktar Shikan anti-tank system, and the full forms of defence organisations such as HIT (Heavy Industries Taxila) and KRL (Khan Research Laboratories). These items are popular in ISSB, Army, Navy and PAF initial tests and in Pakistan Affairs papers, because they reward accurate recall of names and abbreviations.
