Antiradiation missiles ignore whatever definitions they have for restricting their ability to see and lock on targets.
Both antiradiation missiles present in vanilla inherit from this:
class ammo_Missile_AntiRadiationBase: MissileBase
{
model = "\A3\weapons_f\empty";
proxyShape = "\A3\weapons_f\empty";
cost = 1500;
aiAmmoUsageFlags = "128 + 512";
hit = 2100;
indirectHit = 85;
indirectHitRange = 8;
warheadName = "HE";
airLock = 0;
missileLockCone = 120;
missileKeepLockedCone = 120;
missileLockMaxDistance = 16000;
missileLockMinDistance = 1000;
missileLockMaxSpeed = 55;
weaponLockSystem = 16;
cmImmunity = 0.5;
manualControl = 0;
maxControlRange = 16000;
autoSeekTarget = 1;
lockSeekRadius = 0;
flightProfiles[] = {"LoalDistance"};
class LoalDistance
{
lockSeekDistanceFromParent = 1000;
};
class Components: Components
{
class SensorsManagerComponent
{
class Components
{
class AntiRadiationSensorComponent: SensorTemplateAntiRadiation
{
class AirTarget
{
minRange = 16000;
maxRange = 16000;
objectDistanceLimitCoef = -1;
viewDistanceLimitCoef = -1;
};
class GroundTarget
{
minRange = 16000;
maxRange = 16000;
objectDistanceLimitCoef = -1;
viewDistanceLimitCoef = -1;
};
maxTrackableATL = 100;
maxTrackableSpeed = 60;
angleRangeHorizontal = 60;
angleRangeVertical = 180;
};
};
};
};
[etc etc]According to these values the missile should be capable of detecting targets on 60° horizontal cone and 180° vertical cone (angleRangeHorizontal/Vertical), however in practice it is capable of detecting and attacking radar targets which sit way past what its definitions allow.
I tested this in VR with diag exe and no mods loaded.
Placed in map are just an IFV6 AA radar unit and a Black Wasp with a single HARM missile.
When i fire the HARM, once it reaches the SEEKING phase it does a 180° turn and attacks the radar battery that should be outside of detection range.
