Reference map of Chawinda tank battle, '65 war

The solid line represents the Indo Pak border. Red arrows represent incoming indian tanks. Light blue arrows represent the countering Pakistan army.

The battle lasted 9 days, (sept 10-18) and brought out the biggest tank battle to be fought after the second world war. The offensive of the indian artillery was adequately repulsed, causing them heavy casualties and loss of tanks.
