Rolling Scissors Description: -You are the defender. -Doing the rolling scissor you will try switch positions. You should become the attacker after finishing it. -The maneuver is accomplished pitching up and and yawing for the side you want go. Maybe a little cut in the thrust will be needed to allow the Attacker pass you. -You will start making a "screw" that will have a path longer that your enemy has, making him pass you because he is in a path shorter than yours. -Use you high altitude to find the right angle to dive into your enemy. -Pay attention to the radar, only stop doing the rolling scissor after you have visual contact with the enemy or you see it in your front in the radar. Note: Not sure if this maneuver is effective with "space jets" that are capable of "hovering". Video:
This does lose a lot of it's effectiveness in PS2. Vtol allows you to come to a stop and still lock/target corkscrew aircraft no matter their speed.
