After roughly three weeks of intense but inconclusive fighting, the war ended in stalemate under pressure from the United Nations Security Council, formalized by the Soviet Union-mediated Tashkent Declaration of January 1966, in which both sides agreed to withdraw to their pre-war positions.FactsIndo-Pakistani War of 1965ConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsStart YearWell-attested1965 2End YearWell-attested1965 2CombatantsWell-attestedPakistan against India 2OutcomeWell-attestedInconclusive 2ClassificationDeath Toll MinWell-attestedfrom 7061 1Conflict TypeWell-attestedInterstate War 2Indo-Pakistani War of 1965Filter Results12 entriesWeapon FamilyAllHeavy Machine Guns (1)Infantry Fighting Vehicles and Armored Personnel Carriers (1)Rifles and Carbines (2)Semi-Automatic and Battle Rifles (2)Surface-to-Air and Air Defense Missiles (1)Tanks (6)Weapon Type or ClassAllArmored personnel carrier (1)Field gun / gun-howitzer (1)High-altitude surface-to-air missile system (1)Light tank (2)Main battle tank (1)Main battle tank (Centurion) (1)Medium tank (2)Recoilless rifle (1)Semi-automatic rifle (1)towed quad anti-aircraft machine gun mount (1)CaliberAll.50 BMG (2).50 caliber (1)105mm (6)106 x 607 mm R (1)37mm (1)7.62x51mm NATO (1)75mm (2)76.2mm (1)84mm (1)87.6mm (1)90mm (2)Introduced EraAll1940 (1)1941 (1)1942 (1)1944 (1)1945 (1)1946 (1)1952 (2)1953 (2)1954 (1)1955 (1)1957 (1)1960 (1)1961 (1)1965 (1)Service StatusAllIn Service (9)Retired (2)OperatorAllArgentine Armed Forces (1)Australian Army (1)Australian Defence Force (2)Brazilian Army (1)British Army (2)Canadian Armed Forces (2)Canadian Army (1)Egyptian Armed Forces (2)French Armed Forces (2)Indian Army (1)Israeli Defense Forces (2)Mexican Armed Forces (1)Red Army (1)Royal Air Force (1)Turkish Armed Forces (1)United States Armed Forces (1)United States Army (2)United States Marine Corps (1)Vietnam People's Army (1)ManufacturerAllAmerican Car and Foundry Company (1)American Locomotive Company (2)BAE Systems (1)Baldwin Locomotive Works (1)Cadillac (1)Firestone Tire and Rubber Company (1)Fisher Body (1)FMC Corporation (1)Ford Motor Company (1)General Motors (2)Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company (1)Issy-les-Moulineaux Construction Workshops (1)Kaiser Aluminum (1)Leyland Motors (1)Lima Locomotive Works (1)Massey Ferguson (1)Pressed Steel Car Company (1)Royal Ordnance (1)Royal Ordnance Factory (1)Royal Small Arms Factory (1)Stellantis North America (1)Vickers (1)Vickers plc (1)Watervliet Arsenal (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 1225-Pounder GunIndo-Pakistani War of 1965AMX-13Indo-Pakistani War of 1965Centurion TankIndo-Pakistani War of 1965L1A1 Self-Loading RifleIndo-Pakistani War of 1965M113 armored personnel carrierIndo-Pakistani War of 1965M3 StuartIndo-Pakistani War of 1965M4 Sherman TankIndo-Pakistani War of 1965M40 recoilless rifleIndo-Pakistani War of 1965M45 quad mountIndo-Pakistani War of 1965M48 PattonIndo-Pakistani War of 1965S-75 DvinaIndo-Pakistani War of 1965Vickers MBTIndo-Pakistani War of 1965ConnectionsCommanders and ForcesIndian Army, Armed Forces and Units Well-attested The Indian Army fought the second Indo-Pakistani War in 1965, including major tank battles at Asal UttarIndian Navy, Armed Forces and Units Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Indian Navytier 4Uses25-Pounder Gun, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Ordnance QF 25-pounderAMX-13, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: AMX-13Centurion Tank, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Centurion (Tank)tier 4L1A1 Self-Loading Rifle, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: L1A1 Self-Loading RifleM113 armored personnel carrier, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: M113 armored personnel carrierM3 Stuart, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: M3 Stuarttier 4M4 Sherman Tank, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: M4 Shermantier 4M40 recoilless rifle, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: M40 recoilless rifleM45 quad mount, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: M45 quad mountM48 Patton, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: M48 PattonS-75 Dvina, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: S-75 DvinaVickers MBT, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Vickers MBTSources1.
