Okay hehe... I ran the attached scen in the debugger, with SS-N-19s fired in BOL mode.
This is NOT an error in the radar model. In fact you can try non-datalinked SS-N-2c (non-HOJ) and SS-N-2d (HOJ) and you will see. Rather, it is a by-design edge-case for re-targeting of datalinked weapons. Since the shooting unit is in active control of the weapon, it will only attempt to re-direct them onto targets that are in the ship's target list. This is to avoid wasting ammo on stuff that is of no interest to the shooter. I.e. only mission relevant or manually targeted contacts.
To see how this works, do this:
Got to Map Settings -> Targeting Vectors -> Show All. The targeting vectors are now shown, and there aren't any from the firing ships to the intended target.
Now try one of two things:
1) Order an automatic attack by the shooter onto the target. The target will be added to the target list, getting a green or yellow dotted line, depending on WRA settings. After a few seconds the missiles will be retargeted onto the target, granted it is within +/- 20 degrees of the missile.
2) Delete the Kirovs. The missiles immediately sense they are cut off, and go autonomous. They aquire the targets with their onboard seekers, and hit them.
I've made some very minor tweaks in v1.11 so things work slightly better in this particular edge-case, e.g. the missiles will not give up the retargeting cyclus after 4 failed attempts etc.
Thanks again guys for looking into stuff and asking questions
