F-4 Phantom AIM-7M has no missile warning

[BreaKKer]

The title is pretty self explanatory. The AI F-4 Phantom in DCS is able to "TWS" launch AIM-7s.

Hi BreaKKer. Are you aware of the Hom on Jam (HoJ) capability of AIM-7? I've learned about it very recently in this forum. If you keep your jammer on at a short distance, the AIM-7 will run straight at you, unannounced, even if the bandit has been destroyed shortly after launch.

I’m aware. I do believe the AIM-7MH is the only sparrow with his capability. Not the AIM-7M

I have no idea.

The question was raised by Shadow KT in this recent thread.

Uhm, no, the M is definitely capable of this as well and I'm pretty sure the same is true for the F.

All sparrows but the E HOJ in DCS

To be sure, I've just tested an F-4E with AIM-7M missile firing at my Su-25T, and I could hear the missile warning tone.
