how does it know when a missile is coming? let's say you're spiked, yes it knows that due to radar resolution, but how does it know a missile is coming 15 seconds later
I'm far from an expert, but search, tracking and missile radars have different emissions that the RWR can distinguish between. At least on the Hornet, missiles are listed as "CW", continuous-wave. That only goes for radar-guided missiles, the RWR has no warning about IR-guided missiles (AIM-9s, Stingers and such)
@@krez815 Hmmm when you're spiked, for example a hard lock and they launch a fox1 10 seconds, there must be a subtle difference in radar emissions for the warning to go off. even a fox 3 launch in hard lock can set the warning off before it goes pit bull. maybe in real life they launch a missile, turn radar off, then relock last 10 seconds if they have sufficient ranging data, you wouldn't get much of a warning then for fox 1 style missiles.
Yeah, I'm not exactly sure how the RWR picks up semi-active missiles. If you have any examples of an active radar missile triggering the RWR before pitbull, I'd like to see that - never had it happen to me as far as I'm aware.
in search mode the energy beam is sweeping across a broad area of the sky. The system sees intermittent pulses of energy (you get the "nails" tone) Once the radar is "locked" onto you, the energy beam is pointed directly at you and focused specifically on your airplane. The system now sees much higher frequency pulses of radiation and will now switch to the "spike" auditory warning. An active radar missile will never trigger a Spike tone (if used correctly) because the radar guiding it never switches to STT (the energy beam never focuses specifically on your airplane) It only updates your location to the missile up until terminal guidance when the missiles radar becomes active. (this is when the missile uses its radar to focus specifically on your airplane producing the higher frequency of energy pulses therefore triggering the spike tone) This is why active radar missile are much more likely to score a kill. This probably isn;t the best way to word it but it's the best i can do sorry. Hope it helps you understand little anyway.
@@oldfashionedwrx3574 what I heard is that when a missile is launched, the radar energy is boosted momentarily to make sure the missile sees the target it is shooting at, and that "spike" in energy is read as the launch

Why did I click on this video, I hear these sounds every day....
Nice profile pic..you like the Mig 23?
Are you in the Russian airforce?
@@evaneleven6521 He wouldnt use the disgusting NATO designation if he was
you still alive?
You breathing?
i can hear the guy panicking as the rwr indicates a launched missile
7 minutes of pure PTSD
7 minutes of F-16’s rwr warnings please.
i had headache after that video
30 Russian Ukraine war vets disliked this video.
You can see dislikes?
@@jrmuthan2481 get the extension
41 dislike
Ukraine also uses aircraft with this rwr
