When you do find yourself in the CAP, or over the target, what is available to do the deed? As in any depiction of a combat aircraft belonging to Uncle Sam, one has a multitude of radar modes and/or weapons to match the answer to the problem. The APG-73 radar in the Air to Air mode, give us all the usual suspects.... Also a nice job with the Non-Cooperative Target Recognition(NCTR) mode is used.
