• 2 x 30 mm Akan m/55 cannons, wing-mounted (100 rpg = 200 total)

Suspended armament

The J35A can be outfitted with the following ordnance:

• Without load
• 12 x m/56D rockets
• 4 x RB24 missiles
• 2 x RB24 missiles + 12 x m/56D rockets

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".

Pros:

• Superior manoeuvrability at all speeds
• Good energy retention at higher speeds (above 450kts)
• High top speed at low altitudes - can catch anything at it's BR
• Good climb performance
• Deadly 30mm cannons
• Decent acceleration
• Low stall speed

Cons:

• Bleeds energy quickly at lower speeds (below 400kts)
• Only RB24 (Aim9b) missiles
• Wide set gun placement
• Lacks countermeasures - no flares or RWR
• Relatively low (20min) maximum fuel load - Thirsty afterburner
• Wings will rip with Roll and Elevator input at transonic speeds

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
