The Air Weapons Complex (reporting name:AWC) is a military research and development complex for the Pakistan Air Force, headquartered in Hasan Abdal, Punjab, Pakistan.

The AWC plays a pivotal role in air–borne weapons development and integration in aerospace war-fighting technologies for the Pakistan Air Force. Direction and weapons development guidance comes directly from the air force but the complex is managed and operated as a division under the civilian contract of National Engineering & Scientific Commission (NESCOM).
