For ships,corvettes ..etc tou can place any kind of gun in the front and destroy any incoming misisle (from other ships like the destroyers who escort USS beast) ...well i am using long detachable light beacons as flares ( the longer/bigger the beacon the more light it produces) but it is just for looks :/ if your plane is fast enough 500-"whatever" or if your plane is so aerodynamic ( can pitch and roll so good and easily maneuverable) it is real fun you can pitch up and roll right to avoid any incoming missiles (if your plane is stable and good) the missile needs a good distance to change it's course back to you , if you keep pitch+rolling ...in a mere second it will miss

@Destroyer5713 Yes, exactly.
YES. When an AI plane fires a missile at you, it is impossible to dodge it. WE NEED FLARES. And Chaff?
@BlueCobraCreations yeah but for bombers and stuff
