PNs does not need to get close since it will be hiding as in 1965 and 1971 inside a naval base and JF-17s some long range anti ship missile will be on hunt for it. Barak8-12 nothing will stop a hypersonic anti ship missile.I doubt they could get anywhere close to it. In a war PNS will stay put in Karachi for fear of getting sunk.
Also:
During the first scheduled refit in 2017, the carrier will be armed with theBarak 8 long-range air-defence system (LR-SAM), which is currently being tested. It is launched from vertical launch cells, and has a strike range of 6–70 km. The carrier will carry up to 48 missiles
