Use your radar if you're in a plane with one. Press 'R' to lock onto the nearest target as long as they're in range. Happy hunting!
You can't really 'lock on' like in some games, but keeping your reticle on the enemy and using the lead indicator helps!
Just aim well and don't crash. Practice makes perfect, y'know?
