(C+M or SW) mode seems to inhibit R530IR seeker, even after deselection of C+M or SW mode

Hi, 

I noticed there seems to be an issue with the (C+M or SW) mode affecting/inhibiting the R530IR seeker head after deselection.

In the following track I set a up an E-3 as target 2NM ahead at co-speed and co-alt. So a big, perfect IR target straight ahead.
Loadout is two sidewinders on the wingtips and 2 R530 IR on the wing stations.

Selecting the two R530IRs and going master arm off the R530IR  immediately pick up the E-3 and give their aquisition tone.

Now I select the (C+M or SW) mode. So far so good. But after deselecting the (C+M or SW) mode again , the R530 IR seekers no longer seem to be able to find the target, despite unchanged position and despite the missile ready triangles appearing in the HUD.
It looks like even after going out of the (C+M or SW) mode , the R530IR seems to be inhibited somehow.

I understand that C+M or SW mode is only for using guns and Siderwinders/Magic, but this is not the point, the point is after going out of the C M SW mode, the R530IR seekers seems to no longer work, despite the HUD showing the missile ready triangles and despite the armament selections panel still showing the R530 wing stations as selected.


Track and mission file attached.
