hi. You should study the strategy of fourth generation fighters, terminology, and some history of aerial engagements. My advice is that if you are new to fighting and flying, learn how to fight in a biplane, then a prop plane, then a turbo prop, then a jet, then LO. BFM, which is basic fighter training and survival will teach you names of aerobatic skills and what others have done to have success but the skill of fighting and killing and winning takes time to develop. practice 1 v 1 head to head, from below and behind, from above and behind, from in front and below, from in front and above. practice 2 v 1, both offensive and defensive, practice beam counters, reversals, and learn what all of this terminology means.
There are great books, varying schools of thought and philosophy on engagement, many houses of warfare.
Do real fighter pilots learn to dogfight in WW1 era planes?
