The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a rank {{Specs|rank}} Italian jet fighter {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced in [[Update 1.69 "Regia Aeronautica"]].
 +
 +
The F-84G is a fighter-bomber. It's very capable at fighting enemy aircraft while also quite good at CAS (close air support).
 +
 +
The F-84G's acceleration is quite good for a jet at {{Battle-rating|1}}. It's also a very good climber, precisely the early jet with the best climb rate. It has got 6 x 12.7mm M3 machine guns with 1800 rounds of ammunition which is plenty. The air spawn at 610-640 kph is a huge advantage. Turn rate is poor, avoid turn fighting in it. Roll rate is average without New Boosters, good with New Boosters.
 +
 +
The F-84G-21-RE is a Boom & Zoom aircraft. It utilizes its ability to rush thanks to the air spawn, acceleration and very good climb rate in order to cause the enemies to panic.

The F-84G-21-RE should be played as an aggressive Boom & Zoom aircraft. Meaning that as soon as you spawn in it, you turn to the direction of the enemy airfield to rush and reach 850+ kph. Engage those who are climbing, there is also a chance of catching a few away-from-keyboard climbers too. After climbing to engage an enemy at altitude, do not turn back to follow them if they evade. Continue zoom climbing, do a vertical loop and maintain level flight to gain a little bit more speed. After that, the only way you're supposed to fly against enemies is by diving, engaging, zooming up, vertical loop then rinse and repeat.

Description

GarageImage F-84G-21-RE (Italy).jpg


The ▄F-84G-21-RE Thunderjet is a rank V Italian jet fighter with a battle rating of 7.7 (AB/RB) and 8.0 (SB). It was introduced in Update 1.69 "Regia Aeronautica".

The F-84G is a fighter-bomber. It's very capable at fighting enemy aircraft while also quite good at CAS (close air support).

The F-84G's acceleration is quite good for a jet at with a battle rating of 7.7 (AB/RB) and 8.0 (SB). It's also a very good climber, precisely the early jet with the best climb rate. It has got 6 x 12.7mm M3 machine guns with 1800 rounds of ammunition which is plenty. The air spawn at 610-640 kph is a huge advantage. Turn rate is poor, avoid turn fighting in it. Roll rate is average without New Boosters, good with New Boosters.

The F-84G-21-RE is a Boom & Zoom aircraft. It utilizes its ability to rush thanks to the air spawn, acceleration and very good climb rate in order to cause the enemies to panic.
