Low speed manoeuvrability worse than earlier jets.All round aircraft (good at AB, RB, and SB).Better acceleration than most jets at its BR, accelerating more than any other Sabre in game.Turn rate is very good (not better than F-86A-5/F-40 Sabre).High velocity heavy machine gun armament.
Flying tail elevator provides insane manoeuvrability at higher speeds.It is linked with a gyro gunsight and can help with aiming at close range. It will automatically detect other planes within the scanning area and display the range to the closest target. The CL-13A Mk 5 is equipped with an AN/APG-30 rangefinding radar, located in the nose of the aircraft. 5's high speed manoeuvrability falls off very quickly and can leave you as the sitting duck instead. This should not come at the cost of losing one's own speed, however, as the Mk. 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. 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. 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. However, the high velocity and large ammo count makes accuracy a secondary concern. Snapshots will often result in a few hits and an enemy still very much in the fight. Often, sustained fire is the only way to down an enemy short of a pilot snipe. The Mk.5's main pitfall is its lacklustre armament of six M3 machine guns. 5's acceleration and roll rate to pull away if possible, then re-engage in an advantageous position. Engagements should always occur on your terms, if you are in a bad situation make use of the Mk. The CL-13's energy fighting capabilities outperform most if not all enemies of the same BR. Destroy them before they pose any threat to you. 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. Watch out for planes like F-86F-2 Sabres and Hunters. Reach around 1,000 km/h and then 10 to 20 degree climb then level out before dropping below 750 km/h IAS. The CL-13A Mk 5 (Germany) can be outfitted with the following ordnance:
