+ | The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a Rank {{Specs|rank}} American jet fighter {{Battle-rating|2}}. It is found under the F-80 bracket, immediately after the F-80A-5. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The greatest performance upgrade from the A-5 to the C-10 is that the C-10 comes with WEP. This additional power significantly increases acceleration, allowing you to match that of the British Meteor series. It also allows for a last-resort method to escape if you happen to get jumped on. | ||
+ | With the WEP comes with fuel management. If you opt for maximum performance by selecting 9 minutes of fuel, you will run out of fuel quickly if you choose to WEP for the entire match. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Like most American props and tech P-80A, your best option to attack is Boom and Zoom. At the start of the match, fly out towards the edge of the map. Make light climbs at 2.5 degrees to 1000ft and dive down to sea level to convert it into speed. Rinse and repeat until you have reached 350kt, the zoom climb at 30 degrees. Once you have slowed down to 250kt, continue to climb at a solid 15-20 degrees. Optimally, you should have between 11000-15000ft depending on how high the highest enemy is, before turning in towards the area of conflict (continue to climb or maintain altitude). Only once you have selected a target should you dive and make your pass. Always keep your energy high, whether it be speed or altitude. Your greatest advantage is speed, as the P-80 is faster than almost every other jet at its tier. | ||
+ | Defensive flying and rolling scissors is an option with the hydraulic boosters upgrade, however, you risk losing too much energy, and your attacker may choose to break off and try again while you are struggling to maintain lift. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you are given an awkward firing angle (eg: you are directly vertical to your enemy and must pull 10G+ to line up a shot) or you fail to kill on your first pass, slowly pull your aircraft back up into a straight vertical climb to recover as much altitude as possible. If you persist on killing your target, you risk crashing into the ground from control stiffening or getting killed by another enemy because you are losing your energy in a dogfight. | ||

Description
The F-80C-10 Shooting Star is a Rank V American jet fighter
with a battle rating of 7.7 (AB/RB) and 7.3 (SB). It is found under the F-80 bracket, immediately after the F-80A-5.
The greatest performance upgrade from the A-5 to the C-10 is that the C-10 comes with WEP. This additional power significantly increases acceleration, allowing you to match that of the British Meteor series. It also allows for a last-resort method to escape if you happen to get jumped on. With the WEP comes with fuel management. If you opt for maximum performance by selecting 9 minutes of fuel, you will run out of fuel quickly if you choose to WEP for the entire match.
Like most American props and tech P-80A, your best option to attack is Boom and Zoom. At the start of the match, fly out towards the edge of the map. Make light climbs at 2.5 degrees to 1000ft and dive down to sea level to convert it into speed. Rinse and repeat until you have reached 350kt, the zoom climb at 30 degrees. Once you have slowed down to 250kt, continue to climb at a solid 15-20 degrees. Optimally, you should have between 11000-15000ft depending on how high the highest enemy is, before turning in towards the area of conflict (continue to climb or maintain altitude). Only once you have selected a target should you dive and make your pass. Always keep your energy high, whether it be speed or altitude. Your greatest advantage is speed, as the P-80 is faster than almost every other jet at its tier. Defensive flying and rolling scissors is an option with the hydraulic boosters upgrade, however, you risk losing too much energy, and your attacker may choose to break off and try again while you are struggling to maintain lift.
If you are given an awkward firing angle (eg: you are directly vertical to your enemy and must pull 10G+ to line up a shot) or you fail to kill on your first pass, slowly pull your aircraft back up into a straight vertical climb to recover as much altitude as possible. If you persist on killing your target, you risk crashing into the ground from control stiffening or getting killed by another enemy because you are losing your energy in a dogfight.

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.
