When I do it I end up upside down and stalling can someone help me Im trying to make a movie.:helpsmilie: Easy when you know how ;) In the MiG-29, Su-27, or Su-33 . . . At less than 450km/h, press the K key and pull the stick all the way back. The way the aircraft reacts to this in the game is scripted rather than calculated, but it's accurate enough and produces a very nice-looking maneuvre . . . . Just don't try it in combat, it makes for a very big target! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/britgliderpilot/BS2Britgliderpilot-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

centermass Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Just don't try it in combat, it makes for a very big target! Very true, only time this worked with me: a bandit I was following was low and slow and he pulled the cobra. I thought he was going to crash and disengaged. Next thing I know he was locking me up I think he shot me down. That 27 has crazy AoA ability. After that though the cobra has never worked against me.

mcnab Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Just don't try it in combat, it makes for a very big target! Yeah, Cobra manouvere is as effective as the Top Gun's "He's on my 6', I'm gonna hit the brakes and make him fly in front of me" stunt. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VMFA117_Poko Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Yeah, Cobra manouvere is as effective as the Top Gun's "He's on my 6', I'm gonna hit the brakes and make him fly in front of me" stunt. :D"Great balls of fire!":D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any maneuvre that starts with the phrase "first, place your enemy directly behind you" . . . . . http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/britgliderpilot/BS2Britgliderpilot-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGTharos Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 That was me ;) (well, not really, but it easily could have been) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avimimus Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Now the real question: Is it possible to fire the R-73 while floating at the top of the cobra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGTharos Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Of course it is - people use a cobra/hook like that now and then, in LOMAC. Now if the Cobra actually slowed you down to the 90kph it's supposed to though, you wouldn't be surviving the attempt all that well.

nscode Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 90 kph? Whaaaa? Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugatu Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Yes you'd be a very juicy target for the next gen short range missiles pulling a 180 degree reverse turn cued via the HMSD or data links, I think Thrust Vectoring will be relegated to airshows and STOL.

GGTharos Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 You don't need next-gen missiles. An AIM-9 or guns will do the job nicely.
