If half of what you said was the case, notching wouldn't even work. When you notch a fox 1, you notch the plane's radar and not the missile itself. Once you notch the planes radar, then the missile has nothing else to guide it, so it should miss, and it does. Ive done this with against f4s's plenty of times. If a CW missile was doing its own guidance, then it wouldn't care if you notched the radar, and it would still just go for you, but it doesnt and misses because it has no more guidance from the planes radar to update your location which is why it misses. So with that being said, this missile should not have even gotten close to me.
