Padlock mode is rather unique - it moves the point of reference from your targeting recticle to the ship in your CMD. In laymans terms, this mode keeps your view focused on target, even if the ship is behind you. Its a great mode for targeting ships, but has a steep learning curve.
I highly recommend the use of Simple HUD for replaying missions. By freeing up the screen space, you get a much more authentic Star Wars experience, and the various cruisers feel all the more bigger. While in Simple HUD, targeted craft have a rectangular cross-hair around them - clockwise from the top left, the stats are hull, systems, cargo, and shields.
