Description

GarageImage CL-13 Mk.4.jpg


The CL-13 Sabre Mk.4 is a rank V Italian jet fighter with a battle rating of 8.0 (AB), 8.3 (RB), and 9.0 (SB). It was introduced in Update 1.91 "Night Vision".

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

  • 6.35 mm steel - in front of pilot
  • 38 mm bulletproof glass
  • 20 mm steel - pilot's headrest
  • 12.7 mm steel - pilot's seat

The plane isn't the best at survivability due to having very little armour around the cockpit, but it does have strong spots as well, such as the 38 mm bullet-proof glass which can save you from some head-ons.

The CL-13 Mk.4's armour and bullet-proof glass

Armaments

Offensive armament

Main article: M3 Browning (12.7 mm)

The CL-13 Mk.4 is armed with:

  • 6 x 12.7 mm M3 Browning machine guns, nose-mounted (300 rpg = 1,800 total)

Suspended armament

Main articles: AN-M65A1 Fin M129 (1,000 lb), HVAR

The CL-13 Mk.4 can be outfitted with the following ordnance:

  • Without load
  • 16 x HVAR rockets
  • 2 x 1,000 lb AN-M65A1 Fin M129 bombs (2,000 lb total)

Usage in battles

The CL-13 Mk.4 is rather a different Sabre to play compared to the other variants in the family, as well as more difficult, since the armament on board is not the most effective for its battle rating. Therefore, the CL-13 Mk.4 is best used in a support-fighter role, because even if you might not have the armament for head-ons, you can always count on your teammates in a good ol' fashioned bait.

IV G-suit Cover FLBC mk.1

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Decent speed for its rank
  • A magnificent roll rate

Cons:

  • General Electric J47-GE-13 engine produces less thrust than any other Sabre, including the A-5
  • Weak armament
  • Prone to exceeding its wing overload limit

History

The CL-13 Mk.4 was not the most popular CL-13 of the Canadair Sabre line, since only 438 were produced, and 428 were given to the RAF, none of which saw actual combat.

Media

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