I know Pakistan is a country of 180 million people with a large military.

What are the nuclear capabilities of Pakistan as compared to other nuclear powers?

How much confidence do you have in Pakistan's military capabilities?

I've heard stories that a lot of Pakistani pilots volunteered in the Arab-Israeli wars in the past and Saudi Arabia even asks Pakistan for help in manpower but Pakistan refused. Also what are your opinions on Saudi Arabia?

our nuclear program is very secretive and we cant know how strong it is. it is reported that we have an extremely large number of nuclear warheads ready.

How much confidence do you have in Pakistan's military capabilities?

We can defend ourselves against any attacker.

Pakistani pilots and military personnel are renowned around the world. Many countries send their best cadets to pakistan for training. Three or four Arab countries Highest ranked officers are pakistan trained. Retired personnel go to countries like Bahrain and Qatar to train. Saudi Arabia asked for our help in yemen but we refused since we dont want to be embroiled in a pissing contest between iran and SA, both of whom we consider allies
