Bug? Stealth chopper getting locked in stealth mode

I've been flying the stealth heli for a bit and noticed that since the last update, I've been locked on by jets even though I was in stealth mode.

This has happened even after I just spawned in and turned on stealth mode, and being far away from any enemies, I am pretty sure there aren't any tracer darts on me.

Is this some new bug?

    Was your stealth mode broken by damage perhaps? If you take enough damage the stealth mode breaks down.

    Were you getting locked by IR missiles or Radar?

    @Shibiwan I’ve noticed that the last two days as well. Also getting locked on below radar by wildcats. Seems sus as heck since 4.2.

    @rainkloudNope. Spawned in, turn on stealth mode and fly out, just to get locked on by a jet 10 seconds later, followed by a radar missile that hits me which then disables stealth.

    @TTZ_Dipsy Thanks for bringing it up. I recorded some video clips of it today and can string it all together to upload to YouTube if it helps.

    @ATFGunr Definitely sus. I changed my standard load out to carry flares (instead of repair kit) as a result.

    Nope, full health. So from all I can tell it happened with the last update but nothing is mentioned in the patch/update notes

    I can confirm after testing in portal on PC that:

    • Jet Radar missiles are not performing as expected. They are locking on 100% of the time against heli's in stealth mode. 
    • Jet IR missiles are performing as expected against the Stealth Helicopter. They do not lock while heli is in stealth mode.

    I don't have a video yet but seeing as this is 100% reproduceable devs should be able to easily replicate it. Have you done a bug report? I checked and didn't see one, but maybe I just suck at search.
