To counter this, hand held AA weaponry is to be developed, but would it be necessary? We already know that cockpit graphics will be forced. If we remove the ability for aircraft to see infantry on radar, you can basically remove hand held AA weaponry.

Give infantry Stingers. OSOK for planes. AND remove them from plane radar.
Then, and I know this would be horrible for pilotophiles, but like in Afghanistan in the 1980s, the pilots might have to avoid ground forces more.
Which might lead to planes facing off against planes. Which I think is a great idea.
