They do. Its called EODAS [0] and fitted to F-35 fighters (and not F-16s) It provides near 360 degree spherical coverage. The 6 imaging sensors are relatively cheap, but the system integration is expensive. It would still cost at least $250k-1m to install a similar system in GA and business jets.

The imaging sensors are available for limited civilian use.
