Any decent MiG-15 flyer should have had me cold. Good thing for me, no such person is controlling the MiG, and the AI makes enough mistakes for me to shoot it down. I'll take what I can get!

Historically, a few MiG-15 and -17 pilots made the mistake of engaging in a slow-speed turning fight with such piston-engined fighters as the Mustang, Sea Fury, and Skyraider. As was the case here, once at low speed, it's easy for a tight-turning propeller driven fighter to carve such a MiG into mincemeat.
