Description
The F11F-1 Tiger is a gift rank VI American jet fighter
with a battle rating of 9.0 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced during Update "Starfighters" as a reward for the 2020 Operation S.U.M.M.E.R. event.
General info
Flight performance
This plane is basicly a lower BR-ed Starfighter: it flies fast, turns very bad and can handle it's energy fairly decently, althought be careful because this plane can lose a few hundreds of KPH when turning at medium speeds (from 700 KPH to 900 KPH)

Survivability and armour
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
The F11F-1 is armed with:
- 4 x 20 mm Browning-Colt Mk12 Mod 0 cannons, nose-mounted (125 rpg = 500 total)
Suspended armament
The F11F-1 can be outfitted with the following ordnance:
- Without load
- 4 x 500 lb LDGP Mk 82 bombs (2,000 lb total)
- 2 x 1,000 lb LDGP Mk 83 bombs (2,000 lb total)
- 28 x FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets
- 38 x FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets
- 52 x FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets
- 4 x AIM-9B Sidewinder missiles
- 2 x 500 lb LDGP Mk 82 bombs + 2 x AIM-9B Sidewinder missiles (1,000 lb total)
- 2 x 1,000 lb LDGP Mk 83 bombs + 2 x AIM-9B Sidewinder missiles (2,000 lb total)
- 2 x AIM-9B Sidewinder missiles + 14 x FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets
- 2 x AIM-9B Sidewinder missiles + 38 x FFAR Mighty Mouse 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)
As said earlier, this plane is like a lower BR-ed starfighter, so you have to fly in straight lines and keep your speed at least above 700 KpH or 800 KpH. So first after you take off, you should gain speed up to 700 kph and then pitch up to 15 degrees or 20 if you are spaded. If you are struggling to put guns on target, you can drop your afterburner for a moment or take out the airbrake and since it's like a flying boat, loading the 4 Sidewinders can make you heavier but you'll at least get a chance at engaging targets if you are too fast to effectively fire at the enemy, i recommend you to load the missiles when your plane is half spaded.
If your team has another fast plane or a plane with good energy retention, you can also make yourself a bait but be very careful if the enemy you're baiting has missiles or is faster than you, or you might die in a very embarassing way

- Decent energy retention
Cons:
- No takeoff/combat flaps, only landing flaps
- Bad turn time
- Loses a lot of speed in turns
- Needs a lot of runway to land
- Can rip wings at high speeds
- High repair cost
- Weak structural integrity
- Easily set on fire
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).
