Commander Pakistan Fleet (COMPAK) is a formal title in the Pakistan Navy to denote the head (usually a two star or three star vice admiral) as the commander of Pakistan Fleet Command[2][3] with duties sanctioned by the navy for fleet support, progressive transition of the fleet, and ensuring effectiveness of the force. The COMPAK is also assigned with responsibilities to ensure combat and staff capabilities of the fleet such as deployment of the forces, in addition to ensure equipment capacities designed to improve "operational readiness".[4]

The COMPAK is one of the four major administrative authorities and one of the seven total commands of the navy such as Commander, Karachi (COMKAR), a major naval base, Commander, Logistics (COMLOG), Northern Command (COMNOR), Commander, Coast (COMCOAST),[5][6] Commander Central Punjab (COMCEP), Flag Officer Sea Training (FOST), and the commander fleet itself.[4] The fleet commander heads destroyer squadron, naval aviation, surface warfare, and other surface operations and anti-submarine warfare designed for multiple roles such as equipments, including watercraft, weapons, arms, and naval bases.
