This rewinds the time to The Battle of Asal Uttar in 1965 which was fought from September 8 to September 10, 1965 when the Pakistan's invading force, consisting of the 1st Armored Division and 11th Infantry Division, crossed the International Border and captured the Indian town of Khem Karan. After the seizure, the Indian Army regrouped and launched a counter attack. Indian troops flooded the area, which slowed the advance of the Pakistani tanks down and successfully brought them inside a horse-shoe formation, a trap where the advancing Pakistani troops were ambushed and repelled. 97 Pakistani tanks were captured.
Here is a M48 Patton Tank formerly belonging to Pakistan Army but now under Indian control.
