Jäger greifen an!would be "Fighters attacking" translated word-by-word... "Fighters incoming" would be more like it though

Die Aufnahmen zeigen Angriffe auf Kampfflugzeuge sowie (just guessing on the last word) Luftkämpfe zwischen Jägern. Die eingeklammerten Zahlen geben die von den einzelnen (guessing again) Flugzeugführern geschätzten Entfernungen anThe movie shows attacks on Bombers (can't think of a better translation for "Kampfflugzeuge) as well as dogfights between fighter planes. The numbers in brackets show the distance to the target estimated by the pilot.

I don't know exactly what could be meant by "Abgang"... probably the distance between the planes when the attacker turned or dived away.
