CSKA Pamir Dushanbe () is a professional football club based in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, which plays in the Tajikistan Higher League, the country's top division. Since 1997, the club has been under the patronage of the Tajik Army, like its former rivals CSKA Dushanbe.
History Created in 1970 based on FC Energetik Dushanbe, the new Pamir Dushanbe was the only Tajik club to be promoted to the former Soviet Top League, in which the club played for the last three seasons that the league existed just prior to the dissolution of the USSR: 1989, 1990, and 1991. They made the semi-finals of the last Soviet Cup, losing to CSKA Moscow. From 1974 till 1977, the team also won all the four editions of the Afghanistan Republic Day Festival Cup held in Kabul. They also won Saur Revolution Anniversary Festival Tournament in 1979 in Afghanistan.
Due to the ongoing Tajik Civil War, the club was dissolved and its players moved to Uzbekistan. A couple of Dushanbe-based clubs were removed from the Tajik League after 1996.
Originally, at least since the World War II in Stalinabad (Soviet name for Dushanbe) existed FC Dinamo Stalinabad which in 1950 carried the name of Bolshevik. Sometime in 1956 the local football team was taken over by Tajikistani agrarian sports society of Kolhosci and later until 1969 by a sports society of power generation workers, Energetik.
The club formerly played at the Pamir Stadium, but today plays at the smaller CSKA Stadium.
CSKA Pamir Sometime in 1997 the club was recreated under aegis of the Ministry of Defense of Tajikistan and was transformed into the Tajikistani CSKA club which was coached by newly retired former Pamir footballer Damir Kamaletdinov.
In July 2016, CSKA fired manager Rahmatullo Fuzailov, replacing him with Tokhirjon Muminov.
On 5 January 2019, Rustam Khojayev was appointed as the new manager of CSKA. On 23 June 2019, Khojayev resigned as manager. On 8 July 2019, Sergey Zhitsky was appointed as CSKA's new manager.
