FIM-92 locking on but not guiding on ground targets

Searched the forum for this one but came up empty. Also not sure if this is a bug or even if this is the right place to post it, the implementation of weapons being an ED responsibility afaik.

It occured to me, that the Stingers on the Kiowa are capable of locking on ground targets (by tone and boxing them in the PDU) but do not guide after launch but overshoot them (mostly big time). But then again it could be pilot error by launching them too close. As this is obviously not the intended use of this WS, I wondered if somebody here knows more about this behavior.
