BVR Tactics

There are a number of DCS modules either available or in development for fighter aircraft that were designed with Beyond Visual Range (BVR) combat in mind. This essentially offers a whole new area of the simulation that will need attention and the development of tactics and procedures. Rather than wait for the modules to be released, I would like to start reading myself into BVR tactics and terminology.

Having hunted around, I have found the following documentation all of which includes some BVR-related content:

Basic Fighter Maneuvering (BFM) and All Weather Intercept (AWI)
NAVAL Air Training Command CNATRA P-825 (07-14) Flight Training Instruction Advanced UMFO T-45C/VMTS

Air Combat Maneuvering
NAVAL Air Training Command CNATRA P-1289 (08-09) Flight Training Instruction T-45 Strike and IUT

Fighter Combat - The Art and Science of Air-to-Air Combat
Robert L Shaw

My question to the community, does anyone have additional source material on BVR that they could make available?

EDIT - Ah, found it.

If you get warnings about untrusted certificates, just continue. (As with most governmental/military sites)
