With a stealthy fighter you could make an attack on another aircraft
without alerting them, except for the IR signature of the missile's
rocket or ramjet engine.

Is anybody planning a stealth AAM that uses a turbojet?

Rocket motors also have a UV signature.Some missile warning systems use
both bands to reduce false warnings.
