Ace Combat 8: High-G Turn vs Post-Stall Maneuver (PSM)



High-G turn: hold L2 and R2 (LT and RT on Xbox) while you turn. Pull up hard as a missile closes in and it flies past.
Post-stall maneuver: get your speed under 500, tap both triggers and pull back. Early jets only do a Cobra, and a missile fired mid-flip curves, so it hits big ships and often misses small ground targets.

  1. From what I found out when practicing in AC7, its easier when you swap accelerate and decelerate to the bumpers instead of the triggers. With the latter, it's hit or miss when PSM wants to activate. Or it could just be a skill issue on my part
