Examine the survivability of the aircraft. Note how vulnerable the structure is and how secure the pilot is, whether the fuel tanks are armoured, etc. Describe the armour, if there is any, and also mention the vulnerability of other critical aircraft systems.

Armaments

Offensive armament

Main article: Akan m/55 (30 mm)

The J35A is armed with:

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

Suspended armament

Main articles: RB24, m/56D

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

Pros:

  • Superior manoeuvrability at all speeds
  • Good energy retention at higher speeds (above 850 km/h)
  • High top speed at low altitudes
  • Good climb performance
  • Low stall speed
  • Deadly 30 mm cannons

Cons:

  • Bleeds energy quickly at lower speeds (below 750 km/h)
  • Relatively low maximum fuel load - Thirsty afterburner
  • Wings will rip with roll and elevator input at transonic speeds
  • Wide gun placement
  • Only has dumbfire AP rockets for CAS
  • Lacks countermeasures: no flares or RWR

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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.

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.
