just the basic idea of the symbol would do nicely anyways.  the idea that we hope to have them rendered to a texture on the cockpit panel would make it look even better to the player.  of course the point is to just know where everything is, its not supposed to actually be informative

you know.. this would really be cool, I was thinking about it today...

What'd really be useful is something that indicates which intersection of those rings, whether it's this 3D model or what's in the SCP now, is at the front of your fighter. Another indicator for the top of your fighter and it'd really be peachy.

On this 3D model, a longish spike for the front and a smaller one for the top might work.

You know, a color change might convey front/back pretty well... even a light/dark gradient.

How about different sized dots for distance ranges?
