[Hi RUN
The Cobra maneuver can be used to make an opponent to overshoot and to disappear from the radar screen due to Doppler effect. Am I right?
Do you think you can find another use for The Cobra maneuver ?
How you compare in terms of maneuvrability Su-27 and F-16?

Look cool at airshows.

The flanker would only disappear from the radar for a short while and most modern radars would be able to pick it up again.
If the Flanker uses the cobra maneuver in a dogfight it would be a sitting duck afterwards until it gains speed, so maybe not so smart a move. I don't know if they would use it.

Flanker vs F-16 speeks for itself.
