I believe it's through an infrared sensor. The sensor will show a heat source as brighter than its surroundings. The missle just homes in on that bright source.

Heat seeking missile has a sensor. It senses heat from the exhaust of the target. For eg a jet engine has hot gasses exiting the nozzle of its engine. The heat from this exhaust is sought by the heat seeking missile.

the missiles have an infra redradiation source as a result heat waves are tracked to and is followed.incase of same temp. the missile locks itself to the infrared radiations which are emitted as this has a different wavelength by itself

It probably has some form of infra-red laser guided system that targets the hottest part of the fired at object... example: the turbines churning out all those hot flames would be ideal to fire at.
