Another reason jets stay out of small arms range is because that's low
enough
for them to be damaged bytheir own ordanace.

There's also the possibility that small arms will become more lethal,
especially infantry heavy weapons. A real high tech infantry solution
would
see the platoon or company commander drawing a kill zone in the sky
right in
the path of the coming aircraft and teach trooper's hud lighting up the
exact
lapce to shoot. Sort of like Starfire datalink.
