mar-1 brazilian anti radar missile . how it works . how pilot decides when to launch missle . is their any targetting system in jf-17?
There are different ways to fire such missiles.
The US AGM-88 HARM have some kind of pods, which detect the signals from a radar and then the location of the radar is provided to the missile before its launched.
Similarly, aircraft's RWR and ECM or ESMs can be used in detecting the radiation of the radar waves, and let loose the missile towards the intended target.
Other senior members with more knowledge can further input.
