> The strength of the radar is plotted as distance from the center — the closer to the center, the stronger the detected radar signal, and therefore possibly the closer the transmitting aircraft. I believe this is wrong, the computer actually determines what are most pertinent threats and puts it on the inner circle and puts the rest on the outer circle. . The inner band (critical) is generally missiles in flight . The middle band (lethal) is for radars actively tracking you . The outer band is classified as non-lethal since these are radars searching for you, not actively tracking you. > RWR also has an audio component. Each time a new radar signal is detected, it is converted into an audio wave and played for the pilot. Because different radars "sound" different, pilots learn to recognize different airborne or surface threats by their distinctive tones. Pretty sure this is wrong too, they all emit the same tones for tracking and another tone for searching tone... watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOLk_Je0NKg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOLk_Je0NKg
