Isn't the title of this thread how to defeat ace AI?

It is very easy to out-rate the JF17 and the F/A18 with this little trick.

This is me fighting a hornet:

I am noob, I know nothing about ACM except for pulling the stick as hard as I can. The only trick I used was extending the flaps. Start the fight at about 11000 feet. This works 100% for me. The energy retention is so good that the F-16 keeps accelerating even with maximum pull. I have to raise altitude to avoid over-speeding. Soon the AI got its energy drained out. It can't keep up with the speedy viper. I already froze my fuel to 100%, unlike the AI which gains more maneuverability as the fuel burns over time. I know the ace AI also has those magical aerodynamics to give it extra boost in agility. But... It is so easy. This is me fighting an ace JF-17.
