Since the last patch there are yellow flashing lines around the track on your FCR after launch. Those yellow lines are not supposed to be there. The yellow lines in the real life F-16 manuals are there to indicate that whatever they're pointing towards should be flashing in a still photo. You can see the same yellow lines stretch beyond the MFD display in many other illustrations in those same manuals.

 

So in this case when all the yellow lines are pointing to the rear of the track, rather than surround the track completely, that means that the little tail at the rear of the track should be flashing. Or if it's after the predicted impact time, both the tail and the cross should be flashing. As a matter of fact, if you scroll one page down beyond where the image you got those yellow lines from is located in the real life manual, it is described in no uncertain terms exactly what should be flashing, at which hertz, under which conditions, etc. and it is described in words rather than illustrations.

 

Here's an in-game video of the yellow lines in action for reference:
