Actually I think that it was a pilot that first brought up this bug/issue all the way back in December 2021.
Nightbird Unaffected by AA Missiles - Answer HQ (ea.com)
This is an issue that is affective the most the Pilot vs pilot gameplay where the one who knows how to exploit it gets to avoid the enemy IR missiles without using the flares which puts them at a tremendous advantage.
This issue generally does not affect the ground to air missiles as far as I remember

@Col_LarsenThis should not be affecting stingers. It was an issue that made Air to Air missiles loop around the small helicopters and self-destruct harmlessly.
As about why it was not fixed yet.... your guess is as good as mine

This bug isn't specific to Nightbird. In the inital release notes for the recently added "Below Radar" feature, it is NOT supposed to allow pilots to break lock by dipping below radar altitude. However, this is not how it is behaving and pilots are exploiting it to break lock.
- 3 years ago@DigitalHype Not sure where you are seeing that. The notes say that it doesn't effect missiles that have already launched. Doesn't seem to say anything about not breaking locks.
"Flying below 30 meters from the ground will now ensure that you’re immune to lock-ons from Vehicle-based weaponry.
We are also reducing the height limits for Helicopters. Previously we have seen some instances of pilots flying high and unleashing havoc with very little response as lock-on launchers were unable to reach that high. This tweak helps bring those helicopters down to the ground (literally).
This change does not currently affect Jets, or missiles that are already fired. We will continue to review your feedback in the meantime."

@Col_LarsenDude, so there's the flarespam ánd the avoid-the-missile-bug ánd the current bug making the missile go straight, ánd the new class system making ammo (more rockets) rare.
That's like a 4-layered EZ cake for the players who main airvehicles.
