I have been looking through the Tacview recording of my dogfighting practice runs in my F16 vs various Russian jets (AI-controlled) as I came across this strange incident where a SU-33 seems to be  shooting its gun at me at what looks like a 15-20 degree angle off its nose, i.e. it hit me without having to point its nose into my flight path. Am I missing something here or is there indeed something wrong with the physics of this shot?

 

I have attached the full Tacview file with the incident at 19:03 (apologies, I am not sure if it possible to produce a excerpt of a Tacview).

If there's a bug/issue it's with tacview, not the Su-33.   Also, if this is an online recording, the desync can easy cause things to appear like this.   The bandit's tacview would show the nose pointed correctly.
