I dont know is it new,  but when try use laser bombs with pave spike targeting pod i realize, pilots TV screen is reversed after passed point where is  target.  Its show view not from plane position, but like after passed target point, plane reverse direction and we see wiev from this mirrored plane.
It means, when we dont change direction, and have target 10nm aft we see same as was 10nm before target.

I think you dont read carefully what i said. This is not about reversing screen. This is about what you see on the screen.  You see a screen from Pave spike launched as missile with doubled speed of aircrafft. Ar you sure this is launched not stay with plane?
Of course its some minus in equation.

Dear, false alarm. You are right and im not.
im trying to make pic and realise im just victim of optical illusion 😄
Beacase it is really right, that view at 20deg to ground for example is (exactly) same as -20deg , when view is so zoomed, you can see geometrical perspective.
This illusion is similar when you look at  cube sketches in 3d and mind organise diffrent way . It is just normal, so when you sure you are before, you can be after target and vice versa. This illusion is probably due diffrent way of view than F-18 and f-16 tgps.
