PNS Hangor, Submarine museum ship in Karachi, Pakistan

The PNS Hangor submarine stretches 57.8 meters in length and contains multiple exhibition spaces displaying naval equipment and historical artifacts.

The submarine served in the Pakistan Navy from 1969 to 2006, becoming the first submarine since World War II to sink an enemy vessel.

The name Hangor derives from the Bengali word for shark, reflecting the maritime traditions and multilingual heritage of Pakistan's naval forces.

Located at the Pakistan Maritime Museum, visitors can explore both exterior and interior sections of the submarine through guided tours.

The vessel received multiple military decorations, including 4 Sitara-e-Jurat medals, 6 Tamgha-i-Jurat awards, and 14 Sword of Honor recognitions.
