This correlates with what we heard from the Shaheen exercises: once the Thunder bites, it does not let go.
Notching works because radars rely on the doppler effect to identify a moving object. When the object is perpendicular, the radar receives the same signal continuously and so it cannot discern it against background noise. Essentially, the aircraft is part of background noise.
How does the Thunder manage it? I have my own personal idea, but I encourage Pakistani posters not to post any ideas. If this isn't a bug in the game, then we don't want to give the game away.
