[WAD][B 1892] Not engaging Defensive

This is related to a report of mine below about cranking behavior and illumination arcs but focusing on life and death behaviour

In a nutshell: in the attached scenario just focus on the 4 vs 3 BVR 250nm west of Iceland. The F16 knows (its radar has detected) that is being targeted by a threat that clearly within the threat max distance of the Doctrine. Despite this it continues to move straight ahead without engaging defensive or cranking thus deliberately increasing its probabilities of meeting its maker.

What's the current OODA Evasion of the aircrafts?

Edit:

If you are referring to the below it appears to be 2 secs (am I correct?). Based on the photo above evasion should be underway as first detection was 3 secs ago. But if you run one of the saves you will notice that they never enter the engage defensive stage.

Of course they don't because it is desactivated by doctrine!

This happens because CMO has so many options that you are overwhelmed easily ;)
