The United States Air Force uses a tactic called <u>The Grinder</u>, a technique that involves a flight of fighters maneuvering to launch a salvo of long range missiles against a superior opposing force, then rapidly spiralling to a lower altitude and either escaping or regrouping for another attack.

This technique maximizes their chance of success, reduces the risk of losses and can be repeated over and over until all the opposing force is destroyed.

Your CAP is being approached rapidly by a much superior force of fighters tasked with destroying your <u>AWACS</u>. Your best chance of success is by using The Grinder to destroy the enemy or at least even the odds.
