Anti radiolation missiles don't just launch automatically in most scenarios, not to mention discriminate quite a lot what they lock on to avoid simple jamming.

Anti radiolation missiles don't just launch automatically in most scenarios, not to mention discriminate quite a lot what they lock on to avoid simple jamming. Not to mention the AA radars they usually target being more powerful by orders of magnitude than a handheld radar gun.
- themaninthedark 2mo agoI was in high-school when the war in Afghanistan started. The terrain in my area was mountainous so there were often low flying training flights... I always thought it would be cool to build a radar and ping one of the aircraft, especially wanted to know if it would fire countermeasures. But I didn't like the very high likelihood of an FBI investigation with possible terrorist charges.
