PAKISTAN ?? ARMY To Replace American GPS System With CHINESE BeiDou Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) By 2020:

In a bid to end the total reliance on US-based GPS system, PAKISTAN ARMY has decided to replace the American Global Positioning System (GPS) system with the CHINESE BeiDou Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) by 2020, which is expected to join the list of credible global satellite navigation system with global coverage by the year of 2020.

It is worth mentioning that PAKISTAN’s All Weather Ally and Iron Brother CHINA ?? is expected to launch the last satellite of its indigenous BeiDou Constellation Navigation System Satellites, which will help its long-term and Strategic Ally PAKISTAN to gain benefit from it.

The CHINESE BeiDou Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is the fourth consecutive Global Satellite Based Navigation system after the US-based Global Positioning System (GPS), Russia’s GLONASS and Europe’s Galileo Satellite Navigation System.

I dont think they will "Replace." I think they will use both. It is called redundancy.

In the military "redundancy" aka backup plan, is a must, and is second nature. People do it by default.

Link 16 is a secure data link. It has nothing to do with GPS.
