I find air radar not all that necessary at all. I frequently switch to the external view of the jet to find my targets, though, then switch back to cockpit view to destroy them once I have them in front of me. ECM Jammer basically will take the place of flares and works more effectively against opponents using beam scanning or SOFLAM lock-on.

I do the same thing, but my problem isn't spotting people it's knowing when people are tracking behind me about to blow me up. Usually by the time I notice they're on me I'm already having to use my fire extinguisher, and nine times out of 10 when they hit me first I'm done.
