The DCS AMRAAM doesn't quite work like this yet, as they haven't modelled the IMU yet. If the radar loses the target, then the missile flies to the last known position and then turns on. This position is constantly updated by the launching platform and passed to the radar throughout time of flight. When launched the radar passes a predicted intercept position to the missile for it to fly to before going active.
For the AMRAAM, the missile has an understanding of where it is in relation to the target courtesy of the IMU. This is BS for one reason and that is if you shoot PDSTT and loose lock (can happen just second after launch), missile would go active and track whatever it would be in its FOV
