How to fight an F-18C (Falcon 4)

Short video on how to fight an F-18C Hornet in Falcon 4 Allied Force. I'm not trying to show all the buttons and switches you need to press since there's already dozens of videos that do that. I'm just trying to show how you can take advantage of an aircraft's excess thrust against a more maneuverable opponent. This applies to pretty much all other planes as well; unless you are in identical aircraft, one is going to have more thrust than another.

Music is "On Line" from the Ace Combat 6 soundtrack.

It's a great tactic if you are using only guns!

@shadowblade145 Again the idea is to show the difference between aircraft performance, not missiles. If we were using say an AIM-9L you probably would never even make it to the merge. Missiles require different tactics.

@cas343 =) Great way to show off the F-16, but I'll always be a Navy guy...

@shadowblade145 lol well I'm sure the F-18 has its own set of tricks.
