Air Combat Simulator Tactics and Maneuvers

Low-Speed Disengagement

Situation:	You're in a low-speed, hard-turning fight and cannot gain an advantage after several turns. You wish to disengage and reposition.
Maneuver:	• Roll inverted (1).
	• Pull back on the stick to start a steep dive (2).
	• Keep the stick pulled back until you pull out right-side-up but heading in the opposite direction (3).

Roll upside down and put your fighter into a steep dive. You'll end up with a heading 180° from your original.
