Armaments

Offensive armament

Main article: Akan m/55 (30 mm)

The J35A is armed with:

  • 2 x 30 mm Akan m/55 cannons, wing-mounted (100 rpg = 200 total)

Suspended armament

Main articles: RB24, m/56D

The J35A can be outfitted with the following ordnance:

  • Without load
  • 12 x m/56D rockets
  • 4 x RB24 missiles
  • 2 x RB24 missiles + 12 x m/56D rockets

Usage in battles

.Downtier: In a downtier the J35A Draken is one of the best planes in the match. With superior speed, acceleration and manoeuvrability the J35A is almost unstoppable. Start off by climbing to around 20,000ft and then levelling off to pass supersonic speeds, here you will have every advantage over your enemies, fire a missile or get close with your high top speed and take them down with your guns.

Uptier: In an uptier there will be alot more vehicles who can match your performance with speeds (T-2, MiG-19, f104, f105, lightning) so it will be much harder to get close and fire an unexpected missile. These higher performing planes also make it much harder to get away with a 1v1 turn fight, as seeing a slow Draken will attract almost anyone's attention and you'll find yourself with a missile coming you way, so always try to keep up higher speeds but you do have good acceleration to regain speed lost if you need to turn.

1v1 situation: In a 1v1 turn fight the Draken is the best in the game, it's superior turning ability makes it very easy to out turn and enemy and send a couple 30mm round their way. Enemies to bewear of in a 1v1 are F-5C ( very good at turning also and keep energy a little bit better than the J35A, in a prolonged dogfight the F-5C can come ontop if you get too slow) and MiG-19s/PT (The best rate fighter in the game, if you can drag him into a 1 or 2 circle fight he will be very easy to kill, but if the energy/rate fight begins, you may find yourself in a sticky situation)

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Superior manoeuvrability at all speeds
  • Good energy retention at higher speeds (above 850 km/h)
  • High top speed at low altitudes
  • Good climb performance
  • Low stall speed
  • Deadly 30 mm cannons
  • Can Cobra

Cons:

  • Bleeds energy quickly at lower speeds (below 750 km/h)
  • Relatively low maximum fuel load - Thirsty afterburner
  • Wings will rip with roll and elevator input at transonic speeds
  • Wide gun placement
  • Only has unguided rockets for CAS
  • Lacks countermeasures: no flares or RWR
  • Missiles are easily avoidable by enemies

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).

Media

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

Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:

  • reference to the series of the aircraft;
  • links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.
