Aircraft overview
J35J has a radar-missile option in the RB27. Set up the shot where you can support it without ignoring the return fire. If the enemy forces you defensive, saving the aircraft comes before holding the lock.
How to fly it
Set up the first engagement
Build speed and enter at an angle to the enemy push. Decide which target you want before beginning a hard turn.
Make the attack count
Spend the first turn on a real firing opportunity. If the enemy defeats it, relax the pull and rebuild speed instead of drawing another tight circle.
Know when to break off
Leave when more enemies arrive, the target draws you away from support, or another turn costs the speed you need to escape. A teammate nearby is more useful than a duel you cannot finish.
Common mistakes
- Forcing the original plan. Repeated maximum turns that leave the aircraft slow with no shot and no exit.
- Ignoring the next attacker. Look outside the target chase between attacks. The enemy arriving from behind is often the one who decides whether you get home.
Strengths & limitations
Strengths
Use the supported radar shot
RB27 gives you a radar-guided attack to work with. Choose a contact you can keep track of while still watching the threats coming toward you.
Make the first burst count
With 30 mm Akan m/55 cannon, line up the shot before you close. Fire a short burst as the target crosses the sight, then look outside the gunsight before deciding to follow.
Limitations
A missed shot can cost the next fight
If the first attack becomes a slow chase, another enemy gets time to line up. Check above and behind before spending more speed on the original target.
The lock competes with your defense
A semi-active radar shot needs support. Break it off if maintaining the engagement would carry you through an incoming missile or into several enemies.
Recommended Air RB loadouts
RB27
Use this semi-active radar option when you have a workable radar track and room to support the attack. Do not keep the nose committed once an incoming threat makes that unsafe.
RB24
Use the infrared option against a target with little time to react. Judge the angle, closure and countermeasures before firing; a seeker lock alone is not a good reason to launch.
Leave the strike load behind
Take the air-combat fit with the missiles you intend to use when you are hunting aircraft. Bombs and rockets add weight; carry them for a planned ground attack rather than on every sortie.
Radar & defenses
Keep a visual threat scan
Look behind and above between attacks. Do not wait for a warning sound before checking whether someone has begun an interception.
Ground attack & CAS
Keep the rocket pass brief
Line up 6 × m/56D rockets before reaching the target, fire during the pass and leave. Circling low to correct a missed attack gives anti-aircraft guns another chance at you.
Set the sight before the run
Select the fitted weapon and its supported impact or release cue before entering the target area. Make the correction on the approach; do not circle over the target trying to work out the controls.
Handling & fuel
Keep speed for the next decision
Ease off the pull when the shot is gone. Recover speed and separation before deciding to turn back; holding maximum input through every reversal leaves fewer options.
Plan the return
Check fuel after the opening fight, especially if you have spent the approach on high power. Allow for the flight back and landing rather than using the hangar endurance as an afterburner timer.
