	Try turning off expansion memory (if possible).  For me (1000
with Insider's memory truned off) the brackets are only visible in
the Combined Attack.

	I think the extra range means it will track the target for a longer
distance.  I find that the AIM-9s are more succeptable to a Mig's deke --
dive and climb sharply.  This rarely happens to the AIM-7s;  perhaps it's
because of its longer tracking range.

	What I'd like to know is how these people "easily" dodge the Migs'
missiles and what success rate translates to "easy."

Flip side,
