GarageImage G.91 R 1.jpg


The G.91 R/1 is a Rank V Italian jet fighter with a battle rating of 8.3 (AB) and 8.7 (RB/SB). It was introduced along with the rest of the Italian aircraft tech tree in Update 1.69 "Regia Aeronautica".

General info

Survivability and armour

  • 40 mm Bulletproof glass - Armored windscreen
  • 6.5 mm Steel - Surrounding the pilot


Armaments

Offensive armament

Main ariticle: Browning M3 (12.7 mm)

The G.91 R/1 Is armed with:

  • 4 x 12.7mm M3 Browning machine guns, nose-mounted (300 rpg = 1200 total)

Suspended armament

Main article: AN-M64A1 (500 lb), FFAR Mighty Mouse

The G.91 R/1 can be outfitted with the following ordinance:

  • 2 x 500 lb AN-M64A1 bombs (1000 lb total)
  • 38 x FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in an aircraft, the features of using vehicles 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:

  • Accurate guns
  • Turn time is on par with the MiG-15

Cons:

  • Two fewer machine guns than the F-84 and F-86, less likely to down a plane with a short burst
  • Lower speed relative to the jets that it faces
  • Only two payload options
  • High rate of fire means that you can eat through your ammo belts quickly

History

The first production version of the G.91 was the G.91 R, which was intended for both close support and photo reconnaissance. The first production aircraft were finished in 1959, and the R 1 entered Italian Air Force service with 14th Gruppe in March, 1961. In total 48 of this model would be built, all serving with Italy, while the West Germans used the more powerfully armed R-3 and R-4 variants. These would be followed by another 50 R-1B combat aircraft.

Media

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