Not sure what the deal was on that. The Patriot doesn't broadcast that it's targeting a plane, the F16 shouldn't have seen anything more than "there's a radar out there looking" before the pilot shot. No one indicated that the Patriot battery was actually targeting the F16 for a kill.
My understanding is that from those three incidents they changed the SOP for target engagement as well as offering advanced schooling for the senior individuals.
