That's actually ingenious Manu - tagging dots instead of icons being automatically enabled for an enemy. Only problem is that you'd still face the issue when you didn't have time to do anything about it, i.e. if you were already in combat and you spotted a dot arriving with no time/ability to tag it due to manoeuvering, you'd still lose them in the invisible ring area around your aircraft. Easy to solve issues of unfairness just by making sure that if the dot leaves the pilot's view for more than 3-5 secs it is untagged so no tagging people and turning away to check another area of sky for several seconds and then turning back and spotting them again easily. Basically, Manu's idea is great but the LOD issue still needs to be solved.
