incoming lock from enemy aircraft

Recommended Posts

Is there an alarm or light on like the f-15, f-16, or f-18 notifying you of incoming missiles from enemy aircraft. If so I dont see it.

Yes, quite a few models are equipped with radar-warning receivers, including the ones you just mentioned. You should hear a warning tone when you're illuminated by most missile guidance radars, and you should see a flashing icon on the TEWS-equipped bird giving you bearing and threat-type.

isn't the RWR, be it vector or the other type, the instrument to judge the threat direction and action?

Sorry, Fubar was quicker
