	Strafe Jumping Tutorial
		Half-Beating is a method of strafing that doesn't require you to turn the mouse at all except at higher speeds to adjust the angle.
		Strafe the opposite way you are looking and let go of forward at the same time you press strafe.
		Promode strafing is pretty much identical to the normal Q3 strafing, with the exception that you can steer in the air by just holding the strafe keys (to the direction you want to turn) and turning there.

		The next arrival was another TBF which, preceded by a strafing fighter, immediately made an attack from an unspecified altitude, sped and direction with two Mark 17-2 depth charges with the intervelometer set for 75 foot spacing and fuses set to operate at 25 feet.
		During this time two strafing runs by the second fire were carried out to clear the decks and keep the gun crews from their guns.
		With one exception noted, where strafing runs interfered with the paramount business of depth charging, strafing attacks were well made, very accurate, and effectively carried out the mission of keeping the decks cleared of gun crews and rendering anti-aircraft batteries impotent.

		You should understand completely that strafing is a must, that it should be special, and that strafing is an ordinary kind of movement in DOOM (but not in real life ;-)).
		Strafing is a little bit slower, in this case, its speed is 40 points.
		Of course, with diagonal running there are at least two ways to move in the same direction: by means of right strafing and running forward and by means of left strafing with looking to the left or to the right accordingly.

		Now smoothly strafe to where the entrance to the explosive objective is. As you begin falling, pause to select the explosives, then unpause, and turn around to face the door, move forward and open it.
		The elevator should be open for you, and while strafing, tap B to close it before you enter.
		Don't get stuck on this guard that is standing here, and then switch to right-strafe as you turn right, and fall off the little opening in the handrails, and stay as close to the wall as possible while falling, and run into the elevator to complete the mission.

		The P-38 is at best a poor strafing airplane against targets heavily defended by AA due to its inability to make anything but a "down the groove" pass because the guns are not depressed.
		Flights will strafe line abreast if the target is wide enough and in coordination of flights; during the strafing timing is all important.
		You must keep in mind the mushing tendency of the P-38 while flying close to the ground, especially while strafing when your attention may be preoccupied with the target.

		Strafing and turning around the target and fire-pouring is a very effective and very important technique for fragging a slow but shooting-back target.
		It takes time to learn to use strafing in a game as diagonal but not forward running is a little bit confusing at the beginning.
		Thus strafing around the potential frag, you should bear in mind that he can stop for a moment and kill you easily and probably it’ll be easier for him than for you to kill him.

		Strafing or side stepping is a great maneuver for dodging projectiles or looking to your right or left as you move.
		Strafing is implemented using the "NewXValue" and "NewYValue" commands to determine the X# and Z# value of the strafing position.
		To determine the values for strafing to the left, we subtract 90 degrees from the "CameraAngleY#" value.

	ST-v-SW.Net :: Warp Turning and Strafing
		In the case of targets restricted to sublight, however, warp strafing could provide a devastating advantage, in situations where it is compatible with one's goals.
		This is lost prior to the firing of the torpedo (thereby making this not a direct example of torpedo strafing), but the fact that he chose to arm them while at warp (as opposed to the phasers) is quite telling.
		In short, there is nothing to suggest that warp strafing is impossible, and the fact that we have actually seen it with both phasers and torpedoes (not to mention knowing it can occur with transporters!) is the nail in the coffin of the idea that it can't be done.

		Ground attack—"trench strafing" as it was then called—was by 1917 one of the principal activities of the Royal Flying Corps (later RAF).
		Strafing by Bristol fighters and Camels single-handedly routed and destroyed a Turkish army surprised in a defile in Palestine.
		All-out attacks by British fighters helped to slow and then isolate Ludendorff's storm troopers, contributing materially to the containment of Germany's last, great offensive of spring and summer 1918 and the subsequent Allied victory.

		Circle strafing is the skill of circling around your opponent while keeping him in your sights the entire time.
		In order to execute the circle strafe, you must be strafing in one direction while turning your mouse in the opposite direction.
		A good way to practice your circle strafing technique is to find a pillar in one of the maps and circle strafe around it.

	[No title]
		Strafing is probably the best strategy that I know of.
		If you strafe from side to side, the enemies will walk back and forth trying to catch you, and end up walking in a zig-zag pattern, therefore taking longer to reach you to try to kill you, and it will give you more time to kill them.
		When you have enemies coming straight for you from their generators, the obvious thing to do, is to kill them, before they grow too large in numbers.

	Six-Day War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Israelis employed a mixed attack strategy; bombing and strafing runs against the planes themselves, and tarmac-shredding penetration bombs dropped on the runways that rendered them unusable, leaving any undamaged planes unable to take off and therefore helpless targets for later Israeli waves.
		The attack was successful beyond its planners' wildest dreams, destroying virtually all of the Egyptian Air Force on the ground with few Israeli casualties.
		Throughout the war, Israeli aircraft continued strafing airfield runways to prevent their return to usability.

	Clash of the Titans, Warp Strafing
		Since warp strafing is a complex and hotly debated issue, let's start with a statement of what is not contested by either side in this debate:- Federation Starships can safely fly at FTL speeds up to and above 1500 times the speed of light (warp 9).
		Secondly, in the majority of cases of attacks against DS9 (a stationary target), it was clear that the enemy did not want to destroy the station, merely capture it.
		After all, if the anti warp strafing argument was correct, and no attack could be made from warp, the Enterprise would be perfectly safe at impulse speed.

	Air Force Blames Pilot in School Strafing - Newsday.com
		LITTLE EGG HARBOR, N.J. An Air National Guard pilot who accidentally fired on a New Jersey school during a nighttime training exercise was to blame for the incident, but poorly designed controls in the F-16 also played a role, the Air Force concluded Friday.
		The report, obtained by The Associated Press, also disclosed there have been three other incidents this year in which an F-16 pilot unintentionally fired during nighttime strafing missions.
		The report called the Nov. 3 incident in New Jersey an "unfortunate and unintentional mistake." It said the pilot never intended to strafe the Little Egg Harbor Township Intermediate School, and it suggested computer software changes to the aircraft control systems to prevent another incident.

		Civilians fleeing the firestorm engulfing Dresden in February 1945 were not strafed by British and American aircraft, according to new research by a German historian.
		He found that none of the pilots were flying low enough and would not have had enough time to attack civilians because of fuel limitations.
		He believes that many Dresdeners testified to the strafing through panic and the power of suggestion.

		I have been practicing on the circle strafing and have been able to hit the low 600s before.
		Starting on a right foot jump I hold down that right strafe button while continuing to jump, I begin looking to the left with my mouse and continue this until I am facing about 30 degrees to the left.
		As you do a normal strafe jump at this speed, those small arcs to your mouse direction will help to push you even faster but if not done right will slow you back down.

	Range is shut after strafing
		The pilot was flying one of two F-16 fighter jets on a practice strafing run to the target range, which is less than four miles from the school.
		Brian Webster, the commander of the 177th Fighter Wing of the New Jersey Air National Guard, told the New York Times that the pilot was in a strafing dive and fired too soon.
		But he also said at a news conference that it was possible the shots were fired while the plane was climbing, and the bullets arced before striking the school.
