Below Radar presents an effective counter to [[Passive Radar]] missiles, as they will be unable to continue tracking once the aircraft is low enough. However, [[Heat Seekers]] and [[Active Radar]] missiles will continue tracking if they have already been fired after a lock is achieved. Active Radar missiles are a more peculiar case, as they cannot automatically obtain lock-on to vehicles below radar, but will still automatically guide themselves towards the target once the target vehicle flies above radar, and will continue tracking past that point.

Like its predecessor, Below Radar does not protect against shoulder-fired Anti-Aircraft and Vehicle missiles, like the [[FIM-92 Stinger]], [[SA-18 Igla|SA-18 IGLA ]]and [[HVM-II]]. Low-flying aircraft are, however, more vulnerable to ground fire, including unguided or wire guided rockets, as well as fire from armored vehicles. Because of this, pilots of aircraft are encouraged to avoid open, heavy-traffic areas when going below radar to avoid ground fire.
