SaiK it helps target to be noticed from a distance before entering WVR. This way the enemy fighter is better positioned to take/plan a counter attack on the plane. Visual identification is key in WVR. With smoke trail you can realize the location of aircraft before even you can see it clearly.

Rakall, the issue is what's being considered for internal SPJ ... for a Bison, say, it's sufficient to have I band (8-12Ghz) fore and aft coverage - because that's the frequency most offensive airborne radars will operate.
