Adding Teamwork to Air Combat

In most games with air-to-air combat, such as the battlefield series, it inevitably degenerates into numerous individual dogfights with the only element of teamwork consisting of who has the bigger blob.
To correct this I propose that a customization option be added exclusively to the Galaxy that gives it a medium range early warning radar. Since destroying the Galaxies is already going to be the primary objective of all fighter pilots because of their strategic importance as the only mobile spawn vehicle, it makes sense to give galaxy pilots something to do besides being a flying target.
In practice, escort fighters could be vectored onto incoming enemy squadrons or used to ambush other squadrons that are operating without a supporting galaxy, tactics which closely mirror those used in RL.
