Every sighting has a story to tell, and sometimes the most remarkable moments are those we least anticipate. seeing this Sepecat Jaguar fighter jet sat in a field today had me in awe!

Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird – The Plane Designed to Leak
The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is a revolutionary piece of aviation engineering, designed to push the boundaries of flight. The Blackbird was a long-range, advanced, strategic reconnaissance aircraft. It was flown at speeds up to Mach 3, or three times the speed of sound, and it remains the fastest manned air-breathing aircraft to ever fly. But the Blackbird had an interesting feature that made it unique - it was designed to leak. What this did was release pressure as the aircraft flew at high speeds and altitudes, allowing it to fly faster, farther, and remain in flight longer. The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is a remarkable aircraft, and a true testament to the power of human ingenuity.

SEPECAT Jaguar Anglo-French supersonic jet attack aircraft originally used by the British Royal Air Force and the French Air Force carried IR missiles on TOP of the wings, when all the under-wing hardpoints were full.
Tumblr media
Looks awkward, but it worked. You do what you gotta do I suppose.
Of course, the RAF did something similar with ferry tanks on the English Electric Lightning...
Tumblr media
... and that looks even MORE awkward.
The Lightning in Royal Air Force service had no under-wing hard points at all. With control surfaces and the long landing gear there was little space under the narrow wings. Missiles were mounted on the fuselage and the guns were internal.
The Mk.53 export version of the F.6 Lightning (used Saudi Arabia and Kuwait) did manage to squeeze one pylon under each wing, used to carry one 1000-pound bomb or rocket pods for ground attack missions.

The over-wing fuel tanks could also have rocket tubes in the front of the tank. High-explosive solid-fuel rockets fired from the front of a fuel tank! What could possibly go wrong?

SEPECAT Jaguar vs Mikoyan MiG-27
Their massive landing gears show their focus on operations from rough, unprepared airfields.

I want more niche playable aircrafts in Ace Combat. Give me British Aerospace P.1214, De Havilland Sea Vixen, SEPECAT Jaguar, anything.
PA had the right direction by adding Mitsubishi F-1 in Ace Combat Zero and Lockheed F-104 in Ace Combat 7. Give me more variety.

Fairey Fulmar, SEPECAT Jaguar, Polikarpov I-15, Rockwell B-1B Lancer?
Tumblr media
babygirl i know you're a reconnaissance plane but why do you look like that. pass.
Tumblr media
I honestly do like the jag, its smaller wings mounted further back combined with the angular intakes just appeal to me. smash.
Tumblr media
the I-15 is honestly kind of ugly to me. I know being small probably had its benefits but girl you are too stumpy. get larger. pass
Tumblr media
the lancer is beautiful I love her smash absolutely
