APC-Talha is an armoured personnel carrier designed and manufactured by the Pakistani Heavy Industries Taxila (HIT) using Ukrainian made engines. The vehicle is a modernised American M113-A2-Mk1.

There are several provisions for firing ports and periscopes. The army of Pakistan plans to deploy 2,000 of these by year 2010.

The Talha APC had been seen in the IDEA 2002 exhibition in Karachi in 2002 after it was produced.^[2]

In November 2004 an Iraqi defence delegation paid a visit to Pakistan and showed interest in the vehicle and ordered 44 of them.^[3]
