in a future conflict with india will pakistans lack of Naval assests cost it defeat?

Your comments shows that you have not seen documentary on TV about those engagements and why Harriers won and it was also said that it will never happen again as all air forces will take note from those.

Clearly you have seen a documentary, perhaps you can give us an expert opinion on why it can not happen again?

The whole philosophy of having a carrier Battle group is to have capability to operate from safe distance and never to come close to your enemy. IN could hit PN from safe distance by using Mig's and Harriers from it's Aircraft carriers.
We could station them close to Yemen and still blockade Pakistan.

Nope, you can't blockade us from their but can create big problems.

What is the range of a Harrier?? How far it can go from its carrier for strike mission??

I can see the army and air force holding the indian army and IAF off for a few months but the lack of proper navy will be something that will defeat us in the end. the navy doesn't have the right equipment to keep Indian navy at bay. The ships in current service seem like sitting ducks and the submarines we currently operate are outdated.

PN has and will maintain an effective multi layered sea denial capabity.

Pakistan navy is steadily modernizing its surface and submerged fleet as well as MPAs and MAAs are slated for a complete transformation.

Special ops Units and Marines are also being trained for offensive operations.

Electronic warfare and monitoring capabilities are being boosted further by HAWKER 800XP and ZDK3 AE&WCA.

Coastal defense capabilities have been transformed with the induction of C-602A batteries.

Pakistan Navy is slated for Nuclearisation.

Pakistan Navy is now building two huge naval stations from Karachi, Ormara and Gwadar, which will streach its fighting potential.

Strong indications of a DF-21 Carrier killing kin under development.

Rest assured, PN is fully capable of defending Pakistan's maritime borders.

Do you really even want an answer for that question?
Coastal batteries with bare minimum SAM cover - you can take a guess how long they survive.

Yes I do. Considering that Iraqi scuds survived for a very long time without ANY air cover.
