The case is of being stuck between a rock and a hard place.
To be able to shoot down the IAF, the RoE also needs to ensure that the wreckage falls INSIDE Pakistan. However, the doctrine that the IAF was hoping to achieve with standoff weapons is to be able to hit a target inside Pakistan without crossing the IB so keeping its assets safe whilst claiming a grey area of only attacking terrorist strongholds.
During the 3-4 minutes when the aircraft came in, launched maybe 1-2 poorly targeted weapons and then bugged out there was no way to ascertain that a weapon has been fired.
Was a counterattack done at that time then it would have made an impact BUT there was no indication that an attack was ever made - and now that there is the time to respond has gone by.
Oddly enough, if the weapons had hit anything - a seminary full of children or civilians - we would have had the optics to show the world; but dead trees arw nothing to show. So just like Uri, the Indian government and media can brainwash their target bloodthirsty populous a.k.a potential voters whilst allowing the narrative to flood the Internet while we really have nothing to show for it nor a reasonable stance to counterattack for which we need to get support.
No friend or ally will back us when all that was hit was trees; so the incompetence of the IAF has actually gone in their favor.
The ISPR isn’t helping its cause because I can tell they are trying to shoot a narrative under pressure without getting all the info.
Technically the tweets should have been from a PAF representative of the ISPR after gathering facts.. magar

Perhaps a narrative release is required on PDF presence elsewhere trying clearly explain the limitations and response.
Hi,
@Oscar---what a cowardly statement---. That is indeed what was expected of you---.
