User on discord reported some strange behavior for HARMs when the emitter shuts down. Upon testing it looks like the HARM doesn't have an INS or at least doesn't remember where the target was in general and just keeps flying in the direction it was already heading in the moment it lost track, if it was turning at that moment I've seen the control surfaces lock up and it keep flying at a gradual turn. Another thing of note is a notice that HARMs wiggle a little  now when it seems to have locked onto the emitter. The test was done on a hornet against a P-19, the HARM was launched in PB mode from about 60Nm away. Track attached below.

There are several reports on this issue - the problem has existed for a long time but has become much more noticeable with the new Sam capabilities
