What's the purpose? What's the aircraft? What are the weapons? What is the scenario? Are we talking about comparative performance or fully integrated modern combat scenarios? Typically the latest tactics manuals for a given weapon system are going to be "better" than generic discussions of the subject. Check behind the "green door".

So, there is no such thing as "best"? You are asking if there is a single "universal truth". No, I'm asking if there's a better resource (available) regarding the OP's quest for "a book about modern fighter dogfighting, modern air combat manoeuvering" What's the purpose? What's the aircraft? What are the weapons? What is the scenario? Are we talking about comparative performance or fully integrated modern combat scenarios? Just BCM. I think they call it BCM because it pretty much applies across the board, kinda like "Stick & Rudder". Typically the latest tactics manuals for a given weapon system are going to be "better" than generic discussions of the subject. I imagine so. I also imagine those manuals aren't generally made available to the public... AFAIK, and that's about from here | to | there, it's more or less "look down, shoot down", way outside visual range these days. Check behind the "green door".
