Depends on the locking technology. Present day if lasers are hitting your aircraft and they are equipped to detect laser systems, then you will get a warning. But in the future, its an arms race between weapons and defense just like now. Currently we can detect many types locks ons, but that doesn't mean some other form of lock on technology can come about that we can't detect.

Summary: Its the future and technology is changing, sometimes weapons advance faster than defenses, sometimes its the other way around.

Your argument is flawed..Im numbed by your circular logic.......I have "shields"on my dropship.Im working on the assumption that if they can create artificial gravity,faster than light warp drives,and combat clones.....then maybe putting a warning tone in the cockpit wouldnt be to hard for menial minds to figure out...these scientist of the future.

Its not the warning bell that is hard to make, its detecting subspace waves and the complex shape recognition that the missiles are using for guidance that don't send out a signal at all. They just receive the light waves and run a program to find out what type of object it is and what the change from second to second is to find the range. If they aren't sending out a traceable signal, there is nothing to warn the pilot of an incoming missile. But once it is launched, the ships sensors pick up all the tell tell signs of a missile coming and does its own calculations to determine trajectory. Its at that point a warning is triggered and teh alarm goes off.

Im not talking bout the bell either DUDE.Ok and stealth composites do what?SO how are they not available as countermeasure......if we were really at war and my army took on your army I would seize your "Swarm Launcher"by any means necessary and reverse engineer it and run test on it with my scientist to determine how its guidance system works....trust me by the time a weapon is exposed to the battlefield for a simple soldier to carry it it is no longer top secret.....

And my army would know that your army seized my "Swarm Launcher" and updated and changed the type of lock on system so that your lock on detection system was outdated. And then we also put a countermeasure for the new "Swarm Launcher" that causes it to self destruct if the handler is killed to prevent future reverse engineering. So now do you see how your argument is invalid? We can go back and forth all day with this trying to out god mod each other. At the end of the day it is up to CCP to decide what the level of each armies technology is at, and if they say there is no lock on detection for the swarmer than there is no lock on detection.
