For point 3 which view are you using, because each view has a different way it's indicated visually.
I switch between cockpit and HUD only, hardly ever use the external view.
On a side note, I managed to get Face Track running acceptably and it transforms PW, can't wait for proper Track-IR integration!
@darkhelix when using the minimalist cockpit mode the missile reloads are indicated by the sound of a gun cocking back. its very faint at times and can get drowned out with other noises.
