Active Radar



Active radar homing is a missile guidance method in which a guided missile contains a radar transceiver and the electronics necessary for it to find and track its target autonomously. The tracking can be much accurate and also have better resistance to ECM compared to passive radar guidance. Active radar homing missiles have some of the best kill probabilities, along with missiles employing track-via-missile guidance.

Battlefield 4
"Once fired, these missiles will locate and track toward the nearest airborne target and explode within close proximity."
