It´s the Tomcat´s RWR supposed to give wrong position information if you bank the aircraft more than 30ºaprox? I would like to know if this is intended, related to the position of the antenas that receive these signals.

 

In this example you can se how the "18" and "M" symbols keep jumping from side to side, it´s really hard to "notch" missiles and defend against them compared the rest of RWRs.

The RWR is pretty realistic, you have 4 antennas that move when you do and recreate a view on a 2d plane... and something Gyrovague told me reguarding their realistic implementation was

 

Imperfect like a real device should be, and not a god's eye. 
   a) Some weak radars can appear late.  
   b) The directions will be inaccurate. 
   c) It will be harder to estimate the number of threats of one type when they form a group.
   d) You'll receive launch warnings not only when you are the target of the missile. For example when flying in a close formation with your buddy; if an enemy launches a weapon such as AIM-7 or SA-6 at your buddy, you may receive a launch warning from that threat as well.

 

Maneuvering only amplifies the inaccuracy of the 2d projection.
