Armaments
Offensive armament
The M.D.452 IIC is armed with:
- 2 x 30 mm DEFA 541 cannons, nose-mounted (150 RPG) = 300 total)
The two cannons are arranged in the belly portion of the fuselage exiting the aircraft just before the pilot's location. Each is armed with the same amount of ammunition, which means that both guns will fire with each other until empty.
Suspended armament
The M.D.452 IIC utilize external pylons to carry various configurations of:
- None
- 2 x 500 lb AN-M64A1 bombs
- 2 x 1,000 lb AN-M65A1 Fin M129 bombs
- 38 x SNEB type 23 rockets
Usage in the battles
The M.D.452 IIC offers better ordinance than it's earlier in-game variant, the IIA. This makes it more effective in Tank RB and allows use as a fighter-bomber in Air RB. It is generally more maneuverable than most other 9.0 aircraft it faces, the only ones you would have a tough time turning with at this BR would be any of the Sabres. Since its roll is comparable to the Sabre's once the "New Boosters" modification is installed, it opens up the playing field a bit more.

Pros and cons
Pros:
- Excellent armarment of 2 x 30 mm DEFA cannons (higher muzzle velocity and RoF than the ADEN cannon)
- High roll rate, matches the Sabre's roll rate with "New boosters" modification installed
- Descent climb rate
- Effective energy retention
- Payloads can include bombs or rockets
Cons:
- Slow compared to other 9.0 aircraft
- Fragile; a few hits of enemy fire will make controlling the aircraft more difficult
- Low ammo amount; ammo trigger discipline is required
History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too big, take it to a separate article, taking a link to an article about the vehicle and adding a block "/ historical reference" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/Name-vehicles/historical reference) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to include links to sources at the end of the article.
Media
An excellent addition to the article will be video guides, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.
Read also
Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example,
- reference to the series of the aircraft;
- links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.
