Armaments
Offensive armament
The Meteor NF.13 (Israel) is armed with:
- 4 x 20 mm Hispano Mk.V cannons, wing-mounted (195 rpg = 780 total)
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:
- Wing-mounted cannons require less precision in order to hit opponents' vehicles than the nose-mounted cannons on the Meteor F.8.
- The cannons are especially powerful considering the Meteor NF.13's high chance of fighting slower propeller aircraft.
- It turns well and has a moderate roll rate, this combined with the wing cannons makes shot placement easier.
- High thrust-to-weight ratio allows for very good climb rate, acceleration and top speed.
- It has a night-fighting radar, useful for detecting opponents' planes through clouds and at night.
Cons:
- It loses a lot of its flight performance at higher altitudes.
- Wing-mounted cannons are ineffective in head-on attacks at over 2km distance.
- High rate of fire of the cannons can drain ammunition quickly if fired in prolonged bursts.
- Some opponents such as the F-series sabre can easily out-speed it both in a straight line and a dive.
- Its jet engines make for poor instruments for sustained turn fights with propeller-driven opponents - use speed to outrun them instead of manoeuvring with them.
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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.
