If you want to bounce a target from directly out of the sun, place the

I know what each of these words means, but when put together in this manner I
can't make head or tail out of it.


Translation - If you're flying a fighter and wish to attack another aircraft
while keeping the sun directly behind you so he can't see you, then maneuver
your plane until that sunball hits his plane and dive straight at him.
