GUNS TRACKING SHOT
Defn: A gun attack achieved by maneuvering to the rear quarter of a bogey.
Advantages: More certain kill once a tracking solution is achieved.
Disadvantages: Longer time required More predictable flight path....dangerous in a multi-bogey environment

MANOEUVRE TO THE BOGEY'S REAR QUARTER
POINT YOUR NOSE AHEAD OF THE TARGET
MATCH THE BOGEY'S BANK
MATCH THE BOGEY'S TURN RATE BY KEEPING THE BOGEY AT A CONSTANT POSITION IN YOUR HUD

At this stage you are "In the saddle".
PULL UP UNTIL THE PIPPER IS OVER THE TARGET
FIRE SHORT BURSTS
