I ran a few more tests. The problem is specific to certain types of anti radar missiles. I tried out the Russian Kh-58 and Kh-25, the HARM is not affected by this. You can see the problem more clearly when you activate the targeting vectors for all units, and then switch from normal view to god view once the missiles are in the air. The missiles have targeting vectors pointing to the actual target location, where the radar emissions are coming from. But the missiles themselves don't fly towards that location, but to the location that is visible on your screen, dependent on any ambiguity zones and shifting around, depending on the accuracy of your ESM fix. In some cases, both positions match, then the missiles will hit normally. But mostly, the missiles will try to follow the ambiguity contact, ignoring their own targeting vectors, wasting energy doing so, and completely miss the target. Scenario files are attached.
