Description

GarageImage J8A.jpg


The J8A is a rank I Swedish fighter with a battle rating of 1.0 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.93 "Shark Attack" but is currently unavailable to be played in any game mode.

General info

Flight performance

Describe how the aircraft behaves in the air. Speed, manoeuvrability, acceleration and allowable loads - these are the most important characteristics of the vehicle.

Survivability and armour

The J8A does not have any armour.

Armaments

Offensive armament

Main article: Ksp m/22 (8 mm)

The J8A is armed with:

  • 2 x 8 mm Ksp m/22 machine guns, side-mounted (600 rpg = 1,200 total)
  • 2 x 8 mm Ksp m/22 machine guns, wing-mounted (400 rpg = 800 total)

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Can go up to 418 km/h
  • Its four 8mm machine guns can quickly shred other low tier planes
  • Lots of ammo
  • Very high max altitude for its rank

Cons:

  • Climb rate is slower than most other planes that rivals it
  • Higher than average required takeoff length
  • No armour protection

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: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.
