This is one case where the video game "sim" world is very different from real life. Pilots in the real world almost never reduce power while in combat. Instead, they convert kinetic energy into potential energy by pulling into a climb and converting speed into altitude. The trick is to do this while keeping your opponent in sight, something that is very difficult given the limited field of view with a video game.
