Suspended armament

Describe the aircraft's suspended armament: additional cannons under the wings, bombs, rockets and torpedoes. This section is especially important for bombers and attackers. If there is no suspended weaponry remove this subsection.

Default weapon presets
  • 1 x 30 mm DEFA 553 cannon (150 rpg) + 2 x 310 l drop tanks
  • 1 x 30 mm DEFA 553 cannon + 6 x 500 lb LDGP Mk 82 bombs (3,000 lb total)
  • 1 x 30 mm DEFA 553 cannon + 6 x 500 lb Mk 82 Snakeye bombs (3,000 lb total)
  • 1 x 30 mm DEFA 553 cannon + 6 x 250 kg SAMP Type 25 bombs (1,500 kg total)
  • 1 x 30 mm DEFA 553 cannon + 6 x 250 kg SAMP Type 25 200 bombs (1,500 kg total)
  • 1 x 30 mm DEFA 553 cannon + 4 x M116A2 incendiary bombs
  • 1 x 30 mm DEFA 553 cannon + 72 x SNEB type 23 rockets
  • 1 x 30 mm DEFA 553 cannon + 144 x SNEB type 23 rockets
  • 3 x 30 mm DEFA 553 cannons (170 rpg = 510 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

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:

  • Has CCIP, which is rare for this battle rate
  • It has rare features for SB at his BR, such as SAS and a modern HUD with Sight customization

Cons:

  • Does not have access to countermeasures

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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

Devblog

By 1969, both Germany and France had a need for a new generation of jet trainer aircraft to replace their existing inventory of T-33 and Fouga Magister aircraft. It was decided that a collaboration between Dornier and Dassault-Breguet, with the latter first being two separate companies who later merged, had the best potential for a joint TA (Trainer Attack) aircraft over other competing manufacturers and won out the contest with the TA501.

This aircraft was to satisfy the Luftwaffe’s need to also replace their G.91 aircraft in the attack role, while the Armée de l'Air’s needs were mostly on the training gap that the Anglo-French Jaguar was initially intended to cover, but ended up being a more advanced supersonic conversion / strike aircraft. As such, two distinct versions of what would be the Alpha Jet were formed. The A - Appui / Attack and the E - Ecole / Trainer versions. These would be produced in sub assemblies in Germany, France and also Belgium.

The first prototype would take to the skies in October 1973 and after many more years of testing and trials, the Alpha Jet would enter French and German service in 1979, going on to be a success story of collaboration between nations. While it still serves to this day with France, the aircraft has also been a huge export success, with multiple nations from Belgium, Portugal and Thailand operating the type, as well as it also being popular with private company operators who use them as aggressor training aircraft in the UK, America and Canada.

Media

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