In the recent days I noticed several occasions in which the CMWS detected missile launches, which then turned out to be from SA-15.
Only the RLWR didn't detect the SA-15 at all before.
So no "SA-15 searching", "SA-15 tracking", "SA-15, launch" alerts, only "Missile".

I am currently regularly playing on the Rotorheads server for helo gameplay. There is usually high numbers of all kind of SAM systems littered across the map there, so you get in contact with these quickly.

It could of course be a problem with the SA-15 instead, launching on targets without any prior radar use. I am not sure Tor systems have a manual launch and guidance mode though and in all these occasions did the Tor launch from 4+ NM away.
Other Apache players on the server noticed it too.

Today I had it happen right after starting up and taking off, so we can now enjoy a rather short track to review.
After around 5 minutes of cold start, you will see me rolling out of a hangar at Beirut, do a running takeoff out of this motion, then do a right turn. The missile alert happens in that right turn. Turning my head to my 5 oclock, you can see the missile coming from the far mountains in the east. After that one is defeated by terrain masking, another one gets launched. Only then the RLWR did notice there is SA-15 activity.

I hope this one can be cleared up.
