I've watched many Hornet's HUD tapes on YouTube and sometimes there is a dot in the middle of VV circle. Take a look at this:

.

Is it indication of ARM mode or something like that? I don't see it on stream videos of DCS Hornet. Is it only on the older F/A-18s?

You try to keep that dot close to the center of the circle for the most optimal firing angle so it doesn't waste a bunch of energy turning right off the rail

 

Edit sorry didn't look at your video though you ment the aim-7 ,yea that dot is letting you know the hud is the active sensor.

... And just like SOI to HUD in F-16C but in a Viper the dot is not in the middle of FPM (flight path marker / a.k.a. VV - velocity vector) but in the corner of HUD. I got it after first response - thanks. ;)
