The only Pak sub that should give us sleepless nights is an attack sub…a Shang class SSN perhaps, on a 10-yr lease to PN.
There is an intnl precedent to this which could be cited by Beijing.
A PN Shang class operating in the BoB will draw IN assets away fm the W coast and reduce the threat to the Pak coastline. (That’s what SSNs do, tie down surface navy assets).
A 21st C PNS Ghazi (on unlimited power).
Only, my scenario might be too far fetched- the PLAN will not trust the PN with it- (USN could get access). Still, it must not be ruled out entirely - for as the astute RAdm Shrikhande says, all contingencies excluding an alien invasion 👽, must be anticipated and war gamed.

Unless they’ve got basing rights in Oman/Saudi Arabia/Iran… all these subs will be highly endangered in their home ports.

Vitamin D does more than support bones.
Traditionally known for its role in calcium balance and bone health, vitamin D also plays a significant role in skeletal muscle function. Emerging research shows it influences muscle structure, performance, and recovery through both genomic and non-genomic pathways.
Skeletal muscle responds to vitamin D via vitamin D receptor (VDR) signaling. These pathways help regulate:
• muscle protein synthesis
• cellular differentiation
• mitochondrial function
• neuromuscular coordination
Together, they support muscle strength and functional capacity across the lifespan.
One key clinical insight is vitamin D’s selective impact on type II (fast-twitch) muscle fibers, which are responsible for:
• rapid force generation
• balance and posture correction
• fall prevention
In deficiency states, these fibers show atrophy and reduced size, while type I fibers remain relatively preserved. This may explain the higher risk of falls seen in individuals with low vitamin D levels.
Vitamin D insufficiency is also linked to:
• reduced muscle strength
• poorer lower-limb performance
• slower physical function
• increased frailty, especially with aging
This becomes more relevant in older adults due to reduced VDR expression and natural loss of fast-twitch fibers, amplifying muscle decline over time.
While supplementation results vary, the greatest benefit is seen in those who are deficient, positioning vitamin D more as a corrective nutrient than a universal performance enhancer.
Recommended Intake
Most healthy adults need ~600 IU (15 mcg) daily to:
• support bone health
• maintain muscle function
• reduce deficiency risk
Requirements may increase with age.
High-risk groups include:
• older adults
• people with limited sun exposure
• individuals with darker skin
• obesity or malabsorption conditions
• post-bariatric surgery patients
Although sunlight is a key source, modern lifestyles, skin type, geography, and sunscreen use often limit adequate synthesis. This makes diet increasingly important.
Vitamin D3 (from animal sources) is more effective than D2 (plant-based/fortified sources) at maintaining blood levels.
So the real question is: Did you take your vitamin D today?
