A Wingover is a sharp turn to the left or to the right that greatly lowers your chances of being hit. An aircraft performing a Wingover exits the maneuver at its maximum speed.

Wingovers are most commonly used by players and AI alike to quickly change direction and avoid enemy fire. It should be noted that because of the exit velocity of this maneuver, it is useless to attempt this maneuver to get behind an enemy.
