It has been rumored that at least part of the Indian strike package involved Storm Shadow ALCMs being launched at standoff range from Rafales; in that case the limited-range HQ-9Ps would have had difficulty acquiring these targets given their terrain-hugging flight characteristic and the mountainous terrain between India and Pakistan.
