DCS: MiG-21BIS v1.2.11.34087

Infra red seeker seems to lock on center-fuselage of large aircraft, rather than their engines (primary heat source).

This makes sense for fighter aircraft as they all have engine exhausts aft center-fuselage but for large aircraft I'm not sure this makes as much sense.

Because of this, the IR missiles always hit center-fuselage (rudder/elevator).

A quick fix would be for the Devs to place transparent, active flares at the point of each engine exhaust on the game model. It'd work as a temporary fix anyway?
