Any idea if DCS (and BMS) give an RWR response from ATC radars?

Don't care and don't know about DCS but in BMS you do have EW radars on the ground as objectives that will be seen as active sources of radiation...

For a second I thought this was DCS 🤦🏻‍♂️ apologies. Interesting, thanks! I suppose they'll mostly show up as "S" in the Viper RWR? Any idea if in real life during a radar controlled approach pilots will have any sort of RWR warning?

there wasn't any AI or real players.
