pointing the nose of the aircraft in a different direction than the
direction of flight, without changing the actual flight vector.  So,
the aircraft can point it's nose, say, 15 deg vertically and 5 deg to
the port, to get a better firing position for missiles or guns, but not
change the actual direction travelled.

	I believe it's called "Super Cobra", but I could well be wrong.
