      So I have noted a few inconsistencies with the final AMRAAM launched in my flights in BMS. I have firstly noted that if I launch on a jamming target, the missile of interest timer goes straight to terminal countdown, skipping through husky and pitbull timers. I assume this means the missile has switched to HOJ guidance automatically.

      I have also, with a great deal more concern, noted that when I fire the final missile on the rails, I do not get any countdown timer at all for it.

      The SMS page also looks a little strange after firing the final AMRAAM too.

      Seeing as the missile did actually guide on its target, I assume that it was receiving datalink updates from my jet - just not displaying time to go on the HUD.

      After cycling master modes, the SMS page came back to normal, mostly - although it also left a station selected on a page that (in BMS) should not be selectable.

            Known bug. Workaround is to press MSL STEP to get the symbology back.

            Fly in closer until your radar is more powerful (aka ‘burns through’) the jammer and you can bug/track the target.
