Welcome to Heavy Industries Taxila

Heavy Industries Taxila was envisaged in the early seventies and its first production unit i.e. Heavy Rebuild Factory (T-Series) went into production in 1980. This was followed in the early nineties by a number of other factories and today HIT has grown into a military industrial complex which consists of Six Major Production Units, Support Facilities and Administrative Establishment.

CHAIRMAN'S VISION

Maj Gen Ali Iqbal, HI(M)

To transform Heavy Industries Taxila into a world-class, future-ready industrial powerhouse that secures Pakistan’s defence sovereignty while pioneering sustainable mobility solutions for the nation and beyond. HIT aims to stand as a centre of excellence in:
•Niche and dual-use technologies - mastering advanced materials, sensor fusion, AI-enabled fire-control systems, autonomous platforms, and modular electronics that give our forces decisive technological edges. •Discrete armouring and specialised protection vehicles - designing and producing next-generation, mission-tailored armoured solutions that offer superior ballistic, blast, and electronic protection while remaining agile, transportable, and cost-effective for diverse operational environments.
