If you are interested, I did a little digging through some books ive got on the Sea Harrier FA2 and found some passages regarding modern radar’s ability to locate and engage low flying targets
Harrier 809: Operation Deny Flight
Sea Harrier over the Falklands: ASM interception
Note this book is a bit old
This second passage is the main one to note here, the Sea Harrier FA2 + AMRAAM combination had a core design requirement to be able to locate, and destroy sea-skimming anti-ship missiles like the Exocet that proved to be such a major threat during the Falklands. As far as I am aware, it met this requirement, which meant the Sea Harrier using AMRAAM could locate, engage and destroy a missile flying at around Mach 0.9 at an alt of around 10m.
The first video both the enemy radar and their missiles are on your RWR blindspot
BUT
The other videos present real issues that I also noticed in my matches latelly. (you rolled and the rafale still wasn’t pinging your RWR despite being tracking you at that moment while he wasn’t in your blind spot)
RWRs now seem to fail to show enemy radars very often, I used to tone the RWR sensitivity down but now even at 100% the RWR sometimes doesnt show radar pings unless someone has its radar pointed right at me.
What I mean is that now, the RWR seems to be inconsistent in picking up side/rear signal lobes (sometimes even frontal at range) from the enemy radars, this seems to happen in every jet I played.
The missiles themselves still show up like normal, at least the vast majority of the time.
u are right, thank u very much, i watched the replay again, and right before that recording there was short ping of rafaele, only once, position of him and myself was the same… so i think ur right. .thx for answer!
