So, I thought this was actually interesting. It appears there is a bug with heat seekers not hitting their target any more since the new patch.
So to the people who use it, have you experienced this? Here is a video showing the bug.
EDIT: It also seems that not only do Jet heat seekers not hit other jets, but Attack Helicopters and Stingers also do not hit 90% of the time.
They got nerfed. If you haven't noticed, stingers and aa missiles & their range of locking on has been reduced drastically. So has the chance of hit apparently, but they buffed the damage of em. It now takes one stinger to disable an aircraft, which is pretty damn stupid imo.

Pretty stupid
Or you can turn a 180 degree angle, turn into the missile, kick in the afterburns, and the missile goes past your face.
