This was back in 1951, responsible Person was Mr. William B. McLean :mrgreen:
Joking apart, the possibility to track friendly targets was part of former versions of the F-86J mod here and there, but it has always been buggy until now with V0.09 it's working as desired.
To be on the safe side you should make sure that there's no friendly within the 25° seeker FOV when launching the missile, since even if there's an enemy right in front of your nose and 10 other enemies around him, and just 1 friendly 24.9° off and 2km away, the AIM-9 might still select your friend if he's the only one running his engine on full power while all your enemies throttled down in time (that's kind of "offside trap of the AIM-9") :mrgreen:

Best regards - Mike
