i am in desperate need of situational awareness

QUESTION

Any tips on how to improve my situational awareness?

I'm absolutely terrible at it. Right now I fly the F-16, F-14, and the MiG-29, and I just get shot out of the sky like I'm a fly, especially in the MiG-29. On the other jets I at least get a warning if a missile has launched or if an enemy is locking me, but in the MiG I only get a warning a second before impact.

As for visual awareness, it's even worse. I can't even see the enemy on my screen until they're right up in my face.

I've already turned spotting dots up to max, and that has kind of helped, but then I can't identify whether they're friend or foe. I have to wait until I either get a lock and look at them with the TGP or get close enough to tell what plane it is.
