Background
There are sophisticated techniques and tricks that can be applied in BVR to improve chances success, listed below. However before trying to apply these tricks, make sure your have learned the basics of BVR flying - managing energy and situational awareness, taking good shots, cranking and defending.
Advanced BVR Techniques
Preventive defense during pre-launch phase
While it's tempting to fly head-on before shooting at a bandit in BVR, it is disadvantageous to do so. If the bandit has similar range and capability, you expose yourself to long-range TWS launches. It is advisable to approach a bandit with cranks. Generally, this only needs to be done within 60 NM from the bandit.
Adding S-turns in the vertical to a maneuver
Many BVR maneuvers can have a defensive characteristic added to them by performing S-turns in the vertical. For example, you can perform soft S-turns vertically while cranking after shooting. This further reduces closure speed, and works as a defense against incoming missiles.
Constant/non-constant angle of missile warning in RWR
If a missile warning in your RWR is changing angle "downwards" while you maintain constant heading, the missile is defeated. If the angle of the missile warning is constant, the missile still has an intercept solution on you.
Locking targets at gimbal limit before turning in for shot
Before turning in completely for a shot, place the bandit at the edge of your radar screen. Lock the target in this phase, then turn in for an immediate shot. This saves precious seconds in the dangerous head-on phase when taking the shot.
Shooting Fox 3 off-boresight during crank
Sometimes it can be helpful to make an off-boresight shot during the crank, about 5-10 seconds after taking the proper shot. This puts additional pressure on the bandit. The shot will probably not have high probability of kill, but will be dangerous enough to force the bandit to maneuver defensively. When taking this shot you do not turn in significantly. Shoot off-boresight during the crank.
