A nice mod idea for this subject, and may be what you're thinking of, would be to have friendly icons always show up blue and enemy always show up red.
For a long time, I've wished that the game had this option.

I too would like something like that. I always play blue when I fly, so it often takes a bit of changing nationalities around when setting up enemies ... and then often enough it isn't possible to get the correct voice pack working for the blue team. That' no big deal as such, but if it were possible to fly standard blue icons in all circumstances, it would be a great addition to the game ...

And by the way - flying against red doesn't have anything to do with Cold War ideology - red icons and the accompany red numbers in flight are simply much much easier to see, especially against a dark landscape ... blue tends to be less visible ...
