Cycle SOI (Sensor of Interest) button

It would be nice if you added a “Cycle SOI” (Sensor of Interest) button to switch between:

“Slave TGP to Radar”
“Independent TGP and Radar”
“Slave Radar to TGP”
“Independent TGP and Radar”

This would make the radar and TGP operation more flexible.
Currently only some aircrafts allow slaving of targeting pod / optics to radar (and this is done somewhat automatically without the ability to turn it off which creates problems and limitations of its own).
And AFAIK no aircraft in the game allows slaving the radar (Or air to air missiles; See below) to TGP.

In case the future readers are confused about who this thread was addressed to:

In my post I had pinged the sensor / radar / weapon dev (k_stepanovich).

But I was told I’m not supposed to suggest ideas to devs on the forum (not sure why they are on the forum then).

And was told to instead make a thread for it in the suggestion section (which I’m not gonna do because it doesn’t fit the requirements among which is the need to be around 300 words or more).

Anyways, I instead sent it to him via the PM and hope that he will consider it.
