Worth searching for old topics I would say as well
TEWS from Thirdwire:
The ALR-69 RWR display can identify radar type and display different symbols. The symbols you're likely to encounter in the game are:
2 = SA-2
6 = SA-6
8 = SA-8
Z = ZSU-23-4 AAA
21 = MIG-21
23 = MIG-23
15 = F-15
F4 = F-4
F0 = F-104/F-105
M3 = Mirage III
U = Unknown
S = Search radar
V = M163 Vulcan AAA
(hopefully these are pretty self-explanatory)
Radars guiding missiles have flashing circle around them.
Priority threat (the tracking radar with highest signal) will have a diamond displayed around it.
Keep in mind that this can only identify radar type, and not the exact aircraft type. For example, MIG-23MS, which is an export model with MIG-21 radar, will show up as "21", not "23".
Most add-on planes will not be identified (show up as "U") unless additional data is added -

Also, even aircraft with older RWR "vector" display has slightly new feature. On aircraft with up front RHAW control panel, it'll light up different SAM button (LO/MID/HI band light) depending on radar frequency, so you can roughly determine the type of SAM radar tracking you.
Eary and late SA-2 (SA-2 B and SA-2 F) will indicate LO freqnecy band light
Mid-year SA-2 (SA-2 C and SA-2 E) will indicate MID freqnecy band light
SA-6 will light MID freqnecy band light while its searching/tracking, but moves to HI frequency band when guiding missile. But this missile guidance may not be detectable on some RWR (its using CW type radar for guidance).
SA-8 will light HI freqnecy band light
