These systems have to be awesome. Five times the range of the 50-year old TISEO (Target Identification System, Electro-Optical) I dealt with on F-4Es would make possible AIM-120 max-range shots without emitting any radar signal to alert a target of your presence. Their first warning would be when the missile went active with its own seeker for terminal guidance to your plane. Next Generation Air Dominance indeed.+
