I do not know, maybe the self destruciton also was not functional. I have never heard about longer planned launch distance than 60-70 km because of kinematics and power supply limitations.

RE: AGM88 from high alt strangeness :O
Are you sure about that? “Harpy” could loiter, but HARM….

RE: AGM88 from high alt strangeness :O
The missile which was landed in Bulgaria during AF went to ballistic because of internal power supply went out way before reached 100 km from the point of the launch.
Where you got this? I didn’t find anything like that…. If power is lost, why didn’t destruct itself?

Hey, nice! Where can see that TV show/series?
About the missile -
Not sure 200 seconds are enough to provide a > 100 km shot (especially when the missile is doing a 45 degrees climb). Does this 200 seconds limit is verified by a pilot/technician (probably not, as it is a military secret). Also what happened after TTL time expired? Self destruction? -
RE: AGM88 from high alt strangeness :O
I have found 200s to be the TTL for HARMs empirically. It’s nice to see that jive with DB values.
What’s that suppose to mean? Are you a real world “Weasel” jockey?

RE: Suggestion for database, data supply
I know when is used a certain program, only problem Falcon uses static dat file sturcture.
I see…. Sorry, I just want to help…

RE: Suggestion for database, data supply
I prefer to use program 201, even it is unreal for high altitude targets, but because of the limited engagement distance and bubble it is more suitable against low and high flying tagerst eihter in Falcon’s environment. You can see that against low flying closing target the engagement distance is much smaller.
I believe the missile engine program is dependant of expected point of impact height and missile flying time:
1. Time of flight < 52 sec or T>52 sec and height < 20 km - this which you marked “105”
2. Time of flight >52 sec and height > 20 km - program “201”…Also the flight profile is dependant from the time to impact and target height…
