General information

The J29F was the final variant of the J29 "Tunnan" family, used from 1955-1976, and it was the only version of the J29 able to use the RB24 AAMs, which were mostly used in case of intercepting and combat missions. The most notable change on the J29F was the new RM 2B engine and the ability to be able to use air-to-air missiles, and it would continue its service until being replaced by the J32B.

The J29F was introduced in Update 1.95 "Northern Wind". The final variant of the J29 "Tunnan" in the tech tree, combining excellent engine performance, and manoeuvrability for a well-rounded fighter. It is the only J29 able to be outfitted with the Rb24 air-to-air missiles. One more noticeable change is the new engine compared to the previous J29s; the J29F gets the same RM 2B engine as the test-bed J29D, giving it greater speed and ability, as well as an afterburner giving the ability to regain speed compared to the J29A. The J29F is still slow compared to other jets, which is why it's most useful in a support role or diving on unaware enemies, though it could also use the RB24 to force the enemy to turn which can give the J29F the chance to get in closer for gun engagement. The J29F is good at turning at high speed, which makes it an versatile jet for both dogfighting to a certain degree and hit and run passes.
