    The Pakistan Army Air Defence Corps, (ﺁرمى ایئر ڈیفینس كور), abbreviated as ADC), is an military administrative formation of the Pakistan Army, tasked with preparing its constituent units for anti-aircraft warfare against foreign threats. The Corps should not be confused with the Army Air Defence Command, which is a deployment formation that includes some of the regiments of the Corps.

    The Corps was formed in 1989 following military exercises where Pakistan's military learned of its weakness in providing air cover over a moving battlefield. It consists of twelve regiments together with the School of Army Air Defence (SAAD).
