Pros and cons
Pros:
- Great turn time for a jet; can give the MiG-15 a run for its money.
- 4x M3 machine guns can be deadly if aimed correctly.
- Shares some payload options with the F-86 Sabre.
Cons:
- High rate of fire means you have to be conservative with your ammo.
- Bleeds a lot of speed in a full elevator turn
- Can top it's wings off if you pull full elevator past 800kph
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/ History" (example: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 === Encyclopedia Info ===, also if applicable).
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
