<!-- The SEPECAT Jaguar is a relatively small aircraft, with a relatively small wing surface area, yet it boasts two jet engines, each yielding nearly two tons of wet thrust. These characteristics give the Jaguar exceptional agility and responsiveness, being able to engage turnfights if necessary. On the other hand, this small frame makes the Jaguar turn into a brick when loaded with bombs, even becoming so heavy it becomes very hard to take-off. The wings are of a swept design, and the Jaguar loses energy while turning only moderately, not being a BnZ fighter, but not being as bad as a Mirage IIIC or a J35D Draken. Overall it is a quite average fighter, while not loaded. -->

<!-- The Jaguar E's only air-to-air missiles are locked as a rank 4 modification. The entirety of its opposition will be carrying both IR and semi-active radar missiles. Once these missiles are researched, the Jaguar becomes a force to be reckoned with, and it can be expected that a few kills can be made on unsuspecting enemies. The bomb/rocket load of the Jaguar A is decent, and bombing bases and key targets is definitely a good way to acquire experience. Carrying a hybrid air-to-air and air-to-ground load is a good compromise, retaining adequate ground pounding capabilities while acquiring self-defence capabilities.

It is a good tactic to let pure fighters go in front, and remain at low altitude. That way, the Jaguar will not be in the front lines, and will be able to expend its bomb load and attempt to help fighters with its missiles. The Jaguar cannot face aircraft such as a MiG-21, or a Mirage IIIC, or even a Phantom II and be expected to win. The aircraft fares better as a support aircraft.

In Combined battles, many CAS options are available. Be it the SAMP bombs, SNEB rockets, or Multi-Dart rockets, with the latter being its cutting edge weapon against ground forces. Remaining at a safe distance and avoiding incoming missiles while selecting a target, then pointing it swiftly for a top attack with one or more Multi-Dart rockets seems to be an adequate usage of these weapons. It can be decided to abandon the air-to-air missiles to carry more ordnance, that is a choice of attack paradigm each player must make. -->

Offensive armament

Main article: DEFA 553 (30 mm)

Suspended armament

Main articles: SAMP Type 25 (250 kg), SAMP Type 21 (400 kg), BGL-400 (400 kg), BGL-1000 (970 kg)
Main articles: Matra R550 Magic 1, AS-30L Nord, SNEB type 23, TBA ECC, TBA Multi-Dart 100 AB

The Jaguar E can be outfitted with the following ordnance presets:

  • Without load
  • 2 x Matra R550 Magic 1 missiles
  • 8 x 400 kg SAMP Type 21 bombs (3,200 kg total)
  • 11 x 250 kg SAMP Type 25 bombs (2,750 kg total)
  • 2 x 400 kg BGL-400 bombs (800 kg total)
  • 2 x 970 kg BGL-1000 bombs (1,940 kg total)
  • 2 x AS-30L Nord missiles
  • 16 x TBA ECC rockets
  • 16 x TBA Multi-Dart 100 AB rockets
  • 108 x SNEB type 23 rockets
  • 144 x SNEB type 23 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:

  • Good manoeuvrability once suspended armament is disposed of
  • Has two pilots, which decreases the risk of losing the aircraft if a pilot is knocked out
  • Healthy amount of countermeasures
  • Wide variety of air-to-ground loadout options, including laser-guided bombs
  • Access to very effective Matra R550 Magic 1 air-to-air missiles

Cons:

  • Top speed and acceleration are mediocre
  • Poor energy retention, bleeds quite a lot of speed in turns
  • Performance is significantly crippled while carrying big bombload
  • Has neither radar nor radar warning receiver

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).
