#Cl_13A_Mk_5
The CL-13A Sabre Mk 5 is a rank VI German jet fighter with a battle rating of 8.3 (AB), 9.3 (RB), and 9.0 (SB). It was introduced in Update 1.39.
Usage in battles
Speed is everything. Reach around 1000 kph and then 10 to 20 degree climb then level out before dropping below 750 km/h IAS.
Watch out for planes like F-86F-2 Sabres and Hunters. These two you'll see the most and they will see you as a big threat since you pretty much out-perform them in every aspect. Destroy them before they pose any threat to you.
The CL-13's energy fighting capabilities outperform most if not all enemies of the same BR. Engagements should always occur on your terms, if you are in a bad situation make use of the Mk. 5's acceleration and roll rate to pull away if possible, then re-engage in an advantageous position.
The Mk.5's main pitfall is its lacklustre armament of six M3 machine guns. Often, sustained fire is the only way to down an enemy short of a pilot snipe. Snapshots will often result in a few hits and an enemy still very much in the fight. However, the high velocity and large ammo count makes accuracy a secondary concern. Pilots should not hesitate to douse their enemies in a hail of machine gun fire, as even a few hits can cripple the enemy and open them up for a second, fatal pass. Engaging in head-on passes with enemies sometimes leads to success owing to the velocity of the M3s, but pilots should be careful to start firing at significant distance and peel off before the 1.0 km mark to avoid enemy fire. Whilst dogfighting, the best shot of finishing engagements lies in exploiting the CL-13's energy superiority and forcing the enemy to bleed speed to the point where they are sitting ducks for your guns. This should not come at the cost of losing one's own speed, however, as the Mk. 5's high speed manoeuvrability falls off very quickly and can leave you as the sitting duck instead.
Radars
The CL-13A Mk 5 is equipped with an AN/APG-30 rangefinding radar, located in the nose of the aircraft. It will automatically detect other planes within the scanning area and display the range to the closest target. It is linked with a gyro gunsight and can help with aiming at close range.
Pros and cons
Pros:
Excellent roll rate at all speeds
Flying tail elevator provides insane manoeuvrability at higher speeds
High velocity heavy machine gun armament
High rate of fire .50 cal M3 machine guns
Turn rate is very good (not better than F-86A-5/F-40 Sabre)
Very good climb rate against all jets
Better acceleration than most jets at its BR, accelerating more than any other Sabre in game
All round aircraft (good at AB, RB, and SB)
Cons:
Low speed manoeuvrability worse than earlier jets
Installed boosters breaks your wings if pulled over 12 G
Weak landing gear
Its excessive flight performance very often causes overconfidence, which can prove deadly
