In a nutshell, the energy fighter pilot is awaiting the enemy to make the mistake of overextending. Thus they can take advantage of typical Boom & Zoom fighters, which cannot regain any altitude or speed advantage they had after an energy costly manoeuvre. The energy fighters typically have a good power-to-weight ratio, as shown in their excellent climb rate. These interceptors maximise the ability to execute vertical reverses to include the Immelmann (half loop flying up), Split-S (half loop flying down) and the Yo-Yo (any turn angled below or above the horizon) manoeuvres. Turn and Burn is also favoured by those aircraft which are considered energy fighters. they literally fall out of the sky after a few tight turns. Many fighters may look like favourable machines for this playstyle but lack a sustainable turn rate, i.e. All biplanes and the Zero fighter are examples for this style. The goal is to manoeuvre inside the enemy's turn and get a firing lead, either at the tail or as a deflection shot. The first thing that comes to mind when hearing the term 'dogfights.' It involves low wing-loading (big wing & light), low stall speed, high angle of attack and high control-authority/manoeuvrable aircraft. This can be further split into two categories depending on the flown aircraft. Most manoeuvres are loops of various lengths and angles ( 'turn') and involve the reduction of energy in altitude and/or speed ( 'burn'). In essence, the name already tells a lot. Turn and Burn is a method of flying commonly known as 'Turn fighting,' though said term is a rather limited description.
