JASDF F-4EJ , J/APR-2 RWR Display and control panels

[+ravenclaw_007 8,016]

i have some question about the J/APR-2 RWR Display and the warning / control panels 

• what is displayed on the RWR display
• what exactly is the warning panel with the 12 small windows for , i assume it shows the front and rear sectors of the RWR display and what kind of threat
• the 3 lower display lights look like the ones used in other RWR threat warning panels but no idea what is displayed there , although i can make something up there like SEARCH ,AI , AAA , SAM , LAUNCH

if anybody has some infos or pictures showing this items working please share them with me , i realy would like to finish this cockpit

i found this 3 lights in the KAI cockpit , they are for A/G , ADI and VI  no idea what they are for but they could be the same as in the normal EJ cockpit

that is what i have now , the RWR display is just something i came up with except for the F-4 symbol in the center , same go´s for this 3 buttons / lights on the right below the threat warning panel  i just use them for Threat_AI , Threat_Search and  Missile_Launch

it is very difficult to make this cockpits without having the right info´s

the cockpit for the late F-4EJ (1985 onward) will be next and in the future there will be a cockpit for the F-4EJ KAI 

 

if anybody has an idea how to get the  threat lights working based on the sector / angel the threat coms from let me know , i´m working over a year now on that issue  for the F-4G cockpit and here with the F-4EJ i have the same problem , as long as i dont find away to get this lights working this Threat Warning Panel is just an eye candy

wow on the F-4 symbol, i honestly thought it was a sticker for the museum not that it had functional purpose.

given the later timeframe of its installment, i could see that being a thing tho (showing strobes in relation to a/c)

i found pictures from F-4EJ cockpits showing that F-4 symbol , like this one it is from a late F-4EJ 

 

what i was searching for but could not find it was a picture showing the AN/ALE-40 chaff/flare dispensers on the  F-4EJ , it seams that the F-4EJ was never updated with the AN/ALE-40  and remained  just a A/A fighter without self protection

The earliest photo I could find of an F-4EJ equipped with AN/ALE-40 is from May 1985. (All other earlier photos on the same website show them without dispensers or the wing drop tanks obscure the view.)

The pic is taken from http://nabe3saviation.web.fc2.com/aF41j.html, a great resource for JASDF aircraft.

Thank You so much  

that is very interesting because all late F-4EJ cockpit pictures show no AN/ALE-40 control panel in the front or rear cockpit , so i wonder how did they use them

i cant find this AN/ALE-40 control panel not even in the F-4EJ KAI  cockpits and this aircraft used them
