Globalsecurity.com. से युद्ध हार चुका था और उनका मानना था कि भारत उस समय युद्ध करने की स्थिति में नहीं था। इसके अलावा भुट्टो और उनके विचार से सहमत अन्य जनरलो याह्या खान और टिक्का खान का यह भी मानना था कि कश्मीर की जनता भारत से आजाद होकर पाकिस्तान से विलय की इच्छुक है और सैनिको को घुसपैठियों के वेश में भेजने पर उनके समर्थन में विद्रोह कर देगी। आखिर जनरल अयूब खान दबाव में आ गये और उन्होने गुप्त सैनिक अभियान ऑपरेशन जिब्राल्टरDefence Journal. September 2000 का आदेश दे दिया। इस अभियान का मुख्य उद्देश्य कश्मीर की जनता में विद्रोह भड़काना और भारतीय संचारतंत्र एवं परिवहन व्यवस्था को नुकसान पहुचाना था। पाकिस्तान के घुसपैठियों को जल्दी ही पहचान लिया गया और विद्रोह करने के बजाय जनता ने उनकी सूचना भारतीय सैनिकों को दे दी और यह अभियान पूर्णतः विफल हो गया था। यु्द्ध ५ अगस्त १९६५ को २६००० से ३०००० के बीच पाकिस्तानी सैनिकों ने कश्मीर की स्थानीय आबादी की वेषभूषा में नियंत्रण रेखा को पार कर भारतीय कश्मीर में प्रवेश कर लिया। भारतीय सेना ने स्थानीय आबादी से इसकी सूचना पाकर १५ अगस्त को नियंत्रण रेखा को पार किया।। thumb|left|सेनाध्यक्ष पाकिस्तान, जनरल मुहम्मद मूसा खान कब्जे मे लिये गये भारतीय क्षेत्र खेमकरण के रेल भवन मे भारत|कड़ी=Special:FilePath/Pakistani_troops_Kemkaran_1.jpg शुरुआत में भारतीय सेना को अच्छी सफलता मिली। उसने तोपखाने की मदद से तीन महत्वपूर्ण पहाड़ी ठिकानो पर कब्जा जमा लिया। पाकिस्तान ने टिथवाल, उरी और पुंछ क्षेत्रों में महत्वपूर्ण बढत कर ली पर १८ अगस्त को पाकिस्तानी अभियान की ताकत में काफी कमी आ गयी थी। भारतीय अतिरिक्त टुकड़िया लाने में सफल हो गये और भारत ने पाकिस्तान के कब्जे वाले कश्मीर में ८ किलोमीटर अंदर घुस कर हाजी पीर पर कब्जा कर लिया। इस कब्जे से पाकिस्तान सकते में आ गया। अभियान जिब्राल्टर के घुसपैठिये सनिकों का रास्ता भारतीयों के कब्जे में आ गया था और अभियान विफल हो गया। यही नहीं, पाकिस्तान की कमान को लगने लगा कि पाकिस्तानी कश्मीर का महत्वपूर्ण शहर मुजफ्फराबाद अब भारतीयो के कब्जे में जाने ही वाला है। मुजफ्फराबाद पर दबाव कम करने के लिये पाकिस्तान ने एक नया अभियान ऑपरेशन ग्रैंड स्लैम शुरू किया। १ सितम्बर १९६५ को पाकिस्तान ने ग्रैंड स्लैम नामक एक अभियान के तहत सामरिक द्रुष्टी से महत्वपूर्ण शहर अखनूर जम्मू और कश्मीरपर कब्जे के लिये आक्रमण कर दिया। इस अभियान का उद्देश्य कश्मीर घाटी का शेष भारत से संपर्क तोड था ताकि उसकी रसद और संचार वय्वस्था भंग कर दी जाय। पाकिस्तान के इस आक्रमण के लिये भारत तैयार नहीं था और पाकिस्तान को भारी संख्या में सैनिको और बेहतर किस्म के टैंको का लाभ मिल रहा था। शुरूवात में भारत को भारी क्षती उठानी पड़ी इस पर भारतीय सेना ने हवाई हमले का उपयोग किया इसके जवाब में पाकिस्तान ने पंजाब और श्रीनगर के हवाई ठिकानो पर हमला कर दिया। युद्ध के इस चरण में पाकिस्तान अत्यधिक बेहतर स्थिती में था और इस अप्रत्याशित हमले से भारतीय खेमे में घबराहट फैल गयी थी। अखनूर के पाकिस्तानी सेना के हाथ में जाने से भारत के लिये कश्मीर घाटी मे हार का खतरा पैदा हो सकता था। ग्रैंड स्लैम के विफल होने की दो वजहे थी सबसे पहली और बड़ी वजह यह थी कि पाकिस्तान की सैनिक कमान ने जीत के मुहाने में पर अपने सैनिक कमांडर को बदल दिया ऐसे में पाकिस्तानी सेना को आगे बढने में एक दिन की देरी हो गयी और उन २४ घंटो में भारत को अखनूर की रक्षा के लिये अतिरिक्त सैनिक और सामान लाने का मौका मिल गया खुद भारर्तीय सेना के स्थानीय कमांडर भौचक्के थे कि पाकिस्तान इतनी आसान जीत क्यों छोड़ रहा है। एक दिन की देरी के बावजूद भारत के पश्चिमी कमान के सेना प्रमुख यह जानते थे कि पाकिस्तान बहुत बेहतर स्थिती में है और उसको रोकने के लिये उन्होने यह प्रस्ताव तत्कालीन सेनाध्यक्ष जनरल चौधरी को दिया कि पंजाब सीमा में एक नया मोर्चा खोल कर लाहौर पर हमला कर दिया जाय। जनरल चौधरी इस बात से सहमत नहीं थे लेकिन तत्कालीन प्रधानमंत्री लाल बहादुर शाष्त्री ने उनकी बात अनसुनी कर इस हमले का आदेश दे दिया। इच्छोगिल नहर का युद्धभारत ने ६ सितम्बर को अंतर्राष्ट्रीय सीमा रेखा को पार कर पश्चिमी मोर्चे पर हमला कर युद्ध की आधिकारिक शुरूवात कर दी"The Lahore Offensive" https://web.archive.org/web/20050526134616/http://www.storyofpakistan.com/articletext.asp?artid=A068&Pg=5 26 मई 2005 .

The bulk of India's tank fleet were older M4 Sherman tanks; some were up-gunned with the French high velocity CN 75 50 guns and could hold their own, whilst some older models were still equipped with the inferior 75 mm M3 L/40 gun. Besides the M4 tanks, भारत fielded the British-made Centurion Tank Mk 7, with the 105 mm Royal Ordnance L7 gun, and the AMX-13, PT-76, and M3 Stuart light tanks. Pakistan fielded a greater number and more modern artillery; its guns out-ranged those of the Indian artillery, according to Pakistan's Major General T.H.

Amin, December 30, 2001 Orbat At the outbreak of war in 1965, Pakistan had about 15 armoured cavalry regiments, each with about 45 tanks in three squadrons. Besides the Pattons, there were about 200 M4 Shermans re-armed with 76 mm guns, 150 M24 Chaffee light tank and a few independent squadrons of M36B1 tank destroyers. Most of these regiments served in Pakistan's two armoured divisions, the 1st and 6th Armoured divisions – the latter being in the process of formation. The Indian Army of the time possessed 17 cavalry regiments, and in the 1950s had begun modernizing them by the acquisition of 164 AMX-13 light tanks and 188 Centurions. The remainder of the cavalry units were equipped with M4 Shermans and a small number of M3A3 Stuart light tanks. India had only a single armoured division, the 1st 'Black Elephant' Armoured Division, also called 'Fakhr-i-Hind' ('Pride of India'), which consisted of the 17th Cavalry (The Poona Horse), the 4th Hodson's Horse, the 16th 'Black Elephant' Cavalry, the 7th Light Cavalry, the 2nd Lancers, the 18th Cavalry and the 62nd Cavalry, the two first named being equipped with Centurions. There was also the 2nd Independent Armoured Brigade, one of whose three regiments, the 3rd Cavalry, was also equipped with Centurions.

One true winner to emerge was India's Centurion battle tank, with its 105 mm gun and heavy armour, which proved superior to the overly complex Pattons and their exaggerated reputations. However, in the Sialkot sector outnumbered Pattons performed exceedingly well in the hands of the 25th Cavalry and other regiments of the 6th Armoured Division, which exacted a disproportionately heavy toll of Centurions from the Poona Horse and Hodson's Horse. The Indian Army has made much of the fact that some of its Centurions survived repeated hits; yet have failed to point out that the majority of tanks in the Sialkot sector were Shermans whose guns were inadequate even in 1944. Neither the Indian nor Pakistani Army showed any great facility in the use of armoured formations in offensive operations, whether the Pakistani 1st Armoured Division at Asal Uttar or the Indian 1st Armoured Division at Chawinda. In contrast, both proved adept with smaller forces in a defensive role such a the 2nd Armoured Brigade at Asal Uttar and the 25th Cavalry at Chawinda, where they defeated their better equipped but clumsier foes नौसैनिक युद्ध The navies of India and Pakistan did not play a prominent role in the war of 1965, although Pakistani accounts dispute this.<ref name="Navy">South Asia's Nuclear Security Dilemma: India, Pakistan, and China By Lowell Dittmer, pp 77 </ref> On September 7, a flotilla of the Pakistani Navy carried out a small scale bombardment of the Indian coastal town and radar station of Dwarka, which was 200 miles (300 km) south of the Pakistani port of Karachi. Codenamed Operation Dwarka, it did not fulfill its primary objective of disabling the radar station and there was no immediate retaliatory response from India. Later, some of the Indian fleet sailed from Bombay to Dwarka to patrol the area and deter further bombardment.

Losses were relatively heavy—on the Pakistani side, twenty aircraft, 200 tanks, and 3,800 troops. Pakistan's army had been able to withstand Indian pressure, but a continuation of the fighting would only have led to further losses and ultimate defeat for Pakistan. Most Pakistanis, schooled in the belief of their own martial prowess, refused to accept the possibility of their country's military defeat by "Hindu India" and were, instead, quick to blame their failure to attain their military aims on what they considered to be the ineptitude of Ayub Khan and his government.

An excerpt from Stanley Wolpert's India, India by Stanley Wolpert. Published: University of California Press, 1990 summarizing the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965 — In three weeks the second Indo-Pak War ended in what appeared to be a draw when the embargo placed by Washington on U.S. ammunition and replacements for both armies forced cessation of conflict before either side won a clear victory. India, however, was in a position to inflict grave damage to, if not capture, Pakistan's capital of the Punjab when the cease-fire was called, and controlled Kashmir's strategic Uri-Poonch bulge, much to Ayub's chagrin.

The Indian Army failed to recognize the presence of heavy Pakistani artillery and armaments in Chumb and suffered significant losses as a result. The "Official History of the 1965 War", drafted by the Ministry of Defence of India in 1992, was a long suppressed document that revealed other miscalculations. According to the document, on September 22 when the Security Council was pressing for a ceasefire, the Indian Prime Minister asked commanding Gen. Chaudhuri if India could possibly win the war, were he to delay accepting the ceasefire. The general replied that most of India's frontline ammunition had been used up and the Indian Army had suffered considerable tank losses. It was determined later that only 14% of India's frontline ammunition had been fired and India held twice the number of tanks as Pakistan. By this time, the Pakistani Army had used close to 80% of its ammunition. Air Chief Marshal (retd) P.C. Lal, who was the Vice Chief of Air Staff during the conflict, points to the lack of coordination between the IAF and the Indian army. Neither side revealed its battle plans to the other. The battle plans drafted by the Ministry of Defence and General Chaudhari, did not specify a role for the Indian Air Force in the order of battle. This attitude of Gen. Chaudhari was referred to by ACM Lal as the "Supremo Syndrome", a patronizing attitude sometimes held by the Indian army towards the other branches of the Indian Military. पाकिस्तान के गलत आकलन The Pakistani Army's failures started with the supposition that a generally discontented Kashmiri people, given the opportunity provided by the Pakistani advance, would revolt against their Indian rulers, bringing about a swift and decisive surrender of Kashmir. The Kashmiri people, however, did not revolt. Instead, the Indian Army was provided with enough information to learn of Operation Gibraltar and the fact that the Army was battling not insurgents, as they had initially supposed, but Pakistani Army regulars. thumb|left|Telegram from the Embassy of the United States in Karachi: "Continuing propaganda regarding achievements of Pak forces seems to have convinced most that only Pak forbearance saved the Indians from disaster."|कड़ी=Special:FilePath/Mcconaughy20oct1965a.jpg The Pakistani Army also failed to recognize that the Indian policy makers would order an attack on the southern sector in order to open a second theater of conflict. Pakistan was forced to dedicate troops to the southern sector to protect Sialkot and Lahore instead using them to support penetrating into Kashmir. "Operation Grand Slam", which was launched by Pakistan to capture Akhnoor, a town north-east of Jammu and a key region for communications between Kashmir and the rest of India, was also a failure. Many Pakistani commentators criticized the Ayub Khan administration for being indecisive during Operation Grand Slam. These critics claim that the operation failed because Ayub Khan knew the importance of Akhnur to India (having called it India's "jugular vein") and did not want to capture it and drive the two nations into an all-out war. Despite progress being made in Akhnur, General Ayub Khan relieved the commanding Major General Akhtar Hussain Malik and replaced him with Gen. Yahya Khan. A 24-hour lull ensued the replacement, which allowed the Indian army to regroup in Akhnur and successfully oppose a lackluster attack headed by General Yahya Khan. "The enemy came to our rescue", asserted the Indian Chief of Staff of the Western Command. Later, Akhtar Hussain Malik criticized Ayub Khan for planning Operation Gibraltar, which was doomed to fail, and for relieving him of his command at a crucial moment in the war. Malik threatened to expose the truth about the war and the army's failure, but later dropped the idea for fear of being banned.Musharraf, the ‘poor man’s Ataturk’ By Khalid Hasan September 19, 2004 Daily Times Some authors have noted that Pakistan might have been emboldened by a war game – conducted in March 1965, at the Institute of Defence Analysis, USA.

September 19, 1965 In his book "War in the modern world since 1815", noted war historian Jeremy Black said that though Pakistan "lost heavily" during the 1965 war, भारत's hasty decision to call for negotiations prevented further considerable damage to the Pakistan Armed Forces. He elaborates Black Jeremy War in the modern world since 1815 Rowman & Littlefield, 2005 0742525872, 9780742525870 — India's chief of army staff urged negotiations on the ground that they were running out ammunition and their number of tanks had become seriously depleted. In fact, the army had used less than 15% of its ammunition compared to Pakistan, which had consumed closer to 80 percent and India had double the number of serviceable tanks. As a consequence, भारत focussed on enhancing communication and coordination within and among the triservices of the Indian Armed Forces. Partly as a result of the inefficient information gathering preceding the war, भारत established the Research and Analysis Wing for external espionage and intelligence. Major improvements were also made in command and control to address various shortcomings and the positive impact of these changes was clearly visible during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971 when India achieved a decisive victory over Pakistan within two weeks. China's repeated threats to intervene in the conflict in support of Pakistan increased pressure on the government to take an immediate decision to develop nuclear weapons.
