-The Jaguar programme began in the early 1960s, in response to a British requirement (Air Staff Target 362) and a French requirement (ECAT or École de Combat et d'Appui Tactique, "Tactical Combat Support Trainer") for a cheap, dual role trainer and light attack aircraft to replace various obselete subsonic aircraft filling that role. Cross-channel negotiations led Britain and France to form SEPECAT: ''Société Européenne de Production de l'Avion d'École de Combat et d'Appui Tactique'' – the "European company for the production of a combat trainer and tactical support aircraft". Almost all parts of the aircraft were jointly built by the two countries. For example, the powerplant was a partnership between Rolls-Royce and Turbomeca to develop the ''Adour'' afterburning turbofan engine, while the fuselage and wings were a partnerhip between Breguet and BAC, using the same basic configuration and an innovative French-designed landing gear and fuselage design, the Jaguar was built incorporating major elements of design from BAC, notably the wings and various control systems. In the end, the Jaguar program grew into more than just a trainer aircraft, and saw great export sales to foreign countries as a trainer, bomber, strike aircraft, and anti-shipping attacker. The French however, were not satisfied with the performance of the Jaguar B, T2, and T4 trainers, and later set out to create their own special trainer variant. The Jaguar E variant was the two-seat training version for the French Air Force, with two prototypes and 40 production aircraft built in total.

-The '''{{Specs|name}}''', introduced during [[Update "Drone Age"]] as a reward for the 2022 [[wt:en/news/7882-event-project-overpowered-en|Project "Overpowered"]] event, is a twin-seater trainer variant of the tech tree [[Jaguar A]]. The Jaguar has high wing loading and suffers from greatly decreased manouverbility and speed when fully loaded with ordnance, however, it will often not be used in such a case ingame, instead being utilized as a support fighter in dedicated air battles to to its abundant countermeasures and [[Matra R550 Magic 1|R.550 Magic 1]] missiles combined with its nimble handling when not loaded. But mixed battles is where the Jaguar A really shines, being able to use a wide array of guided and unguided ordnance, chief of which are the powerful [[BGL-400 (400 kg)|BGL-400]]/[[BGL-1000 (970 kg)|1000]] series laser guided bombs and [[AS-30L Nord]] laser guided missiles. One should be wary of the Jaguar E's heavier airframe and {{Annotation|RTOW|Regulated Take-off Weight}}, which results in further decreased handling and performance especially when loaded.

 === Flight performance ===
 {{Specs-Avia-Flight}}
-<!-- The SEPECAT Jaguar is a relatively small aircraft, with a relatively small wing surface area, yet it boasts two jet engines, each yielding nearly two tons of wet thrust. These characteristics give the Jaguar exceptional agility and responsiveness, being able to engage turnfights if necessary. On the other hand, this small frame makes the Jaguar turn into a brick when loaded with bombs, even becoming so heavy it becomes very hard to take-off. The wings are of a swept design, and the Jaguar loses energy while turning only moderately, not being a BnZ fighter, but not being as bad as a Mirage IIIC or a J35D Draken. Overall it is a quite average fighter, while not loaded. -->

 == Usage in battles ==
-<!-- The Jaguar E's only air-to-air missiles are locked as a rank 4 modification. The entirety of its opposition will be carrying both IR and semi-active radar missiles. Once these missiles are researched, the Jaguar becomes a force to be reckoned with, and it can be expected that a few kills can be made on unsuspecting enemies. The bomb/rocket load of the Jaguar A is decent, and bombing bases and key targets is definitely a good way to acquire experience. Carrying a hybrid air-to-air and air-to-ground load is a good compromise, retaining adequate ground pounding capabilities while acquiring self-defence capabilities.

If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).'' -->
