I'm with you guys. This would be (from my non dev point of view) such a simple and low effort feature, but it would add very much to the immersion. Especially if it's not only visible for the pilot, but also for his wingmen....for screenshots etc.
let alone the animation from pilot view. Only the same the mig 21 has.
Just like an-in-the-meantime-to-keep-you-guys-happy-during-the-long-wait-feature.
