writes AIM 9s at recips?? I doubt if you would ever get a tone. Certainly would. Even the original seeker (uncooled lead sulphide, really basic) would track a flashlight or a lit cigarette, and the exhausts and propellers of 900hp recips are *hot*. By the time you're up to AIM-9L or thereabouts, you should be able to get a workable acquisition on a reciprocating engine unless the background clutter's hateful (and this would be over ocean, in good weather, with the attacker choosing altitude and aspect at leisure) -- He thinks too much: such men are dangerous.
