Helmet mode indication bug when locking via R73

[SkyFire11]

When starting mission in air, I try to lock target with helmet mode without IRST and here no sound and proper indication on monocle, but on HUD I see what R73 is locked on and I can fire. I guess this is a bug, because before update indication was fine. 

 

And here few more bugs:

1. I cant fire R73 (rockets seeker has lock) until I got IRST lock, after that I can fire it. 

 

Fire without IRST lock

2. When I spawned in air, R73 starts cooling process what takes 1 min. Weapon not ready and I cant fire, after 1 min I can.

One more thing about boresighting R73 with helmet. In FC3 Mig29A I get "ПР" signal If I lock target within ±45° off-boresight sector, but I can override this by pressing allow launch button and fire missile on ±60° angle. In FF Mig I can only lock and fire R73 in ±45° sector. Auto\manual switch dont allow me to lock 45°+

You do not have R-73 link in your first picture. If you did, you would have a flashing “ LA” symbol

What is link? I want to shoot missile without IRST (КОЛС), only by heat seeker and I should see correct helm indication. null

Yes that is correct symbology for when R-73 has lock without IRST
