Using harms against two or more sam sites

[pete_auau]

Was wondering on the  Harm  page  where  you  got  the  s  symbols  etc,  how  do you  know  which  one  is  targeting  you.  Since  was  watching  a  utube  and thought  i  saw  a  line  above   the  s  symbol  which  he  than  selected  to  fire  against  first. If  so  how  do  you  get  the  line to appear etc

 

NM   found  on  how to do it  in sp  mode  just need  to  select  the  target  in  ew   page   and  in  too mode    when the  target locks  you up it  puts  a line above   its  symbol

An "S" represents a search radar, you will never get locked up and engaged by a search radar, in most cases you're looking for a number.

In TOO you can set your filter to Priority threats ("PRI," in the lower right) and the screen will only show you threats that are tracking you. If you're going Wild Weasel this is a good way to quickly engage a SAM site that's trying to kill you.

You should be able to identify with help of your RWR and  TOO screen which one is targeting you but as a trick you may use SP mode which engages highest priority threat

Pete,

To add to what Bunny and Zodiacc said, on your RWR display, the symbol for a radar that's locked onto you will have a "rocker" (a half circle) at the bottom. In the latest edition of Chuck's Guide for the FA-18, you'll find a screen shot of that on page 602.
