On: AI simulates hypersonic air battle, offering tactic for winning Mach 11 dogfight

im a little sad they did not include some cool graph explaining whatever this is supposed to mean:

> But the pilot, guided by AI the team developed, flew to an unexpected position far ahead of the enemy aircraft and fired a missile “over the shoulder”, tossing it backwards towards the foe.

does this mean the ai crossed the slower foes' course, practically leaving the missile like an aerial mine for the foe to fly into?

looks like the mach11 fighter would do better with a different style of weapons than slow missiles
