PIFFER Units

These are the Battalions of the Pakistan Army's Frontier Force Regiment or Piffers. Uniquely the Regiment also controls several regiments of armour and artillery, which are also know as "Piffers" and use the title "Frontier Force" after their names.

Infantry Battalions

Since formation in 1956, the battalions have been known officially by their ordinal number followed by the legend "FF". However since many of the original fifteen battalions were from prior regiments, they were raised under different names, which are indicated. In some cases the battalion may be better known by the original name or nickname. 2 FF for instance is known better as "Guides Infantry" after the fact it was drawn from the infantry component of the Corps of Guides when that unit was disbanded. Some memenbers of 15 FF, still call their battalion, "2 Pathan" which was the designation the battalion had as a unit of the Pathan Regiment.

Armour and Infantry Regiments

These regiments are also administered by the Piffers.
