Ray, that site is for a out of print game called twilight 2000, it is not an authoritative source.

best I can figure is that Pakistan had the base model M48 in 1965 per Patton-mania.com, although a model kit shows a M48a3

http://im.rediff.com/news/2005/sep/05war.gif shows an M48, but the shadows hide the return rollers. But it does clearly show a lack of even a white light searchlight and the 90mm gun.


Pakistan did not have laser range finders, I have seen no evidence of IR searchlights, and they had the inferior 90mm gun.
