Welcome to our new content. As the Weapon Detective, we are investigating modern weapon systems of the Second Cold War. The Weapon Legends is about the older weapon systems. We tell their epic stories, which made them a legend. The Weapon Legends investigates these stories, reads between the lines, analyse, and tells the untold. You can find technical information, historical backgrounds, what happened during the development processes, combat experience and political projection. Let the wisdom of history show us what the future might be. Let’s investigate the veteran weapons of the past together.

Despite it being extremely underpowered, it was actully very fast at low level and difficult to catch, it just couldn't turn very well without bleeding energy. Pilots have also descibed the cockpit as "an ergonomic slum". It's also been said that when fully loaded, it only got off the ground due to the curvature of the Earth. Despite all this, pilots absolutely loved it, and almost eveyone who flew it said it was their favourite aircraft that they ever flew.

Jaguars are beautiful aircrafts. My father served alongside Jaguar squadrons and one of my friend's father was a Jaguar pilot (IAF). I was at that time in high school, have a lot of fond memories of this aircraft. They have incredibly loud roar, it was nuance for our teachers to teach us while they were flying; I had a chance of seeing inside the cockpit of Jaguar, some describe it messy but I liked it, was better looking than the Soviet Migs. I have also seen them during bombing exercises both with practice and live bombs and a lot of other good memories. For me, it will always be a nostalgic reminder of my good high school days😌.

The jaguar and the Concorde are good proof that when the English and the French forget their old quarrels they are capable of making very beautiful and talented planes. If the United Kingdom had not voted for Brexit, it is with them that we would have had to make the 6th generation aircraft rather than with the Germans. Another great missed opportunity, too bad.

IMHO this has nothing to do with Brexit. The Brits are pursuing their 6th gen fighter plans in cooperation with Italy and France with Germany. It's probably for the same reason why the idea of building a shared British-French aircraft carrier had been scrapped, or why the French left the Eurofighter program to build their own Rafale: France and Britain have different operational doctrines and different needs, what works for one isn't necessarily a good solution for the other.

@olivierpuyou3621 9 ай бұрын

@@jacobzimmermann59 Yet the English and the French have more needs in common, both have distant islands to defend and therefore we will need aircraft carriers, because we are not going to lie to each other the F-35s are flying shit and are not only a transitional solution (even the USAF has reduced its number of F-35s to buy more F-15 NGs, it's still a sign that doesn't lie).

@jacobzimmermann59 9 ай бұрын

@@olivierpuyou3621 That the F-35 is shit is an Internet meme which like all Internet meme couldn't be further from the truth. It's almost certainly the most accomplished 5th gen fighter, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's the best for every role or mission. It's not a very good interceptor, for that you really want a F-15 or a Typhoon, and it doesn't have the versatility of the Rafale. And one of its main issues are extremely high operating costs. But again, France and UK may have different expectations for their 6G fighters. France will almost certainly want another multirole/omnirole aircraft that can perform A2A, A2G, recon, air support and air superiority missions, and that can operate both in an air force context and a navy context (i.e. from aircraft carriers). Whereas the UK may want to complement the F-35 with a Typhoon successor optimised for air superiority (speed, climb rate), and that doesn't necessarily have a naval variant or nuclear strike capabilities. I think the difference between their two respective approaches was best illustrated in the 1980s. France operated two CATOBAR carriers with a fleet of Super Etendard each, whereas the UK chose not to pursue a catapult-fitted carrier program at all and instead relied on VTOL with its Harriers. Both ultimately proved to be highly effective though.

The first sea trials were carried out from July 8 to 13, 1970, on the aircraft carrier Clemenceau. In January 1973, the Navy decided to abandon the Jaguar M05 program.

I vividly remember spotting these deep down in Norway's longest valley back in the mid-1980s while having a summer job as a surveillance assistant. First came a 4-ship of Norwegian still spanking new F-16 (probably flying air cover), then came 2 tree-skimming Tornado ground attack machines (first time I saw them IRL) followed by a 4-ship of Jaguars (potentially flying even lower than the Tornados) hauling a$$ up the Norwegian "valley of valleys" presumably heading up to the live fire bombing and artillery range at Dovrefjell. For a fan-boy aged 16, who had spent a full week at the new F-16 332 squadron during the work-training week away from school the year before (yes I totally beat the system on that one) I was as giddy as giddy can be. For obvious reasons, the young and light F-16A will always be the prettiest girl in the sky. The Jaguar is not far behind though- especially when doing what she was made for - tree-hugging like the most lethal eco-warrior imaginable. I also have a soft spot for the Swedish SAAB Viggen in its ground attack version (also because it was rare to see as I grew up in NATO and the Swedes were neutral. Back in the 80s when "my valley" was used for NATO low and high flying exercises, I got to see F-15, F-111, F-4, Alpha Jet, Sea Hawks, Harriers, French Dassault Mirage and lots of German and British Tornados plus course the F-16, since every Northern European nation too small to build own fighter jets banded together and acquired the F-16 during the 1970s. And of course the joy of watching Norwegian C-130s or British, Danish, German, American, Dutch, and Belgian versions showing their love for trees and the Norwegian mountainous landscape up close (this still happens). It always makes me smile as I know SOF colleagues from around NATO are getting a scenic flight to hang out with their Norwegian brothers. I have to say though - doing fieldwork for my doctorate on the highest mountains in Northern Europe, the rarest bird I ever looked DOWN on was a B-1 bomber hiding its substantial girth while skimming Norwegian national parks. F-111 and Tornados are not small aircraft when tucked into Norwegian alpine valley, but to look down on a B-1 Lancer - now that is just uncanny to observe (with a soundtrack to prove it). The C-130 is positively tiny (and slow) by comparison. Now we fly the F-35 here in Norway (affectionately dubbed "Fat Amy"). I must confess that Gen 3 and 4 bodies were prettier to look at. But then I remind myself what they are designed to do when applied with anger, and the F-35 suddenly looks attractive again. Still - watching a B-1 not even tree-hugging, it was moss hugging the terrain well above the treeline around 1300 meters above sea level (4000 and some feet), from my vantage point (ca 2000 meters above sea level; ca. 6000 ft). Something bigger than a civilian 737 is screaming along around 2,000 ft below you. I am more environmentally conscious than most (though not an idiot) as I spent 30 years as a climate scientist (alongside being trained for a couple of years to be angry myself and serving that job in case it was needed as a reservist for 25 years) - there is beauty to behold in watching a machine being guided by humans to do the job it was designed to do.

As much of a fan boy(more like old fart) of the Jaguar that I am, Australia (as mentioned as a possible buyer in the early 70s) was never going to buy the Jaaaaaaaag. We had introduced Mirage III interceptor and ground attack variants around 1968. We had also signed up for the F-111C to replace our English Electric Canberras in 1963 and the range and payload of the Jag would never have been enough. The delays in the F-111C acquisition led to the short term lease of F-4 Phantoms and it seemed possible at the time they may have been purchased instead. In the end we got our “Pigs” in 1973, and they lived a long and happy life in the mud here until 2010!

India failed to negotiate for Honeywell F-125IN engines. Indian Union government like always delayed the budget for funding the engine project under DARIN-3 upgrade programme. They lured Honeywell to invest on their F-125 engine for the Jaguar fighters. And then continued the procurement delays for more than a decade. This eventually & naturally led the Honeywell company to ask for new inflated pricetag for delayed time and Indian government rejected their pricetag & said they only want to give the Honeywell company in old pricetag. Thus failed to have this wonderful engine. After DARIN-3 UPGRADE programme few crashes were attributed to using the old RR Ardour engine which is giving lower TWR as upgrades increased more weights to the aircraft. India wants to retire this aircraft completely in 2035 with developing MWF category aircraft Tejas Mk-2. Indian Air Force is not keen to have anymore the engine upgrade 😢.

I was never a fan of the Jaguar when it was around, possibly as a result of reading the book 'Thunder and Lightnings', a novel by Jan Mark, when I was a kid. One of the main characters hated Jags, as they were replacing his beloved EE Lightning. Even as a kid I was a crusty old traditionalist! There is no doubt whatsoever that the Jaguar was an iconic Cold War era jet, and very well respected, although not all that high profile until it's intense combat use during the First Gulf War. The ability to take off from unprepared roads instead of runways would have come in very useful if the expected 'Cold War' had become hot! The more I learn about the Jaguar, the more I like it, although the Phantom will always have top place in my heart!

In my humble opinion, the simplistic and traditional warfare performance refined cold war era design, adaptive longevity and limited yet highly specializable deployment criteria makes the Jaguar platform a very promising contender among future adaptations to derive a lateral generation of combat trainers and surface engagement platform variants for low intensity mission programs serving advanced civil defense, especially in context of strategic combat aviation operators, monitoring maritime sovereignty and the assigned economic network infrastructure.

I wonder if the UK needed a low-altitude strike aircraft why not just build more Buccaneers? Did they really need Mach 1+ performance? If you wanted a joint design and production maybe spend a little development money on making a land-based version that would be lighter and longer-ranged. Of course, it wouldn't work for a trainer but then the Jag never really was used as a trainer. If cost was an issue then dumb down the avionics to reduce the cost and that would leave a lot of room for future avionics.

The airframes should have been pooled and remanufactured, as they were still useful even later than the 1990s. The RAF kept what was essentially two squadrons of them in storage and for groundcrew training for a decade, hoping for sense from politicial creatures. Like the Harrier, it was the victim of politics from start to finish.

Britain had systematically killed Indian HAL Maruat jet fighter bomber project, the first fighter aircraft from Asia, for its own Jaguar project. .. with Indian money Rolls Royce had started design of new jet engines for HAL Maruat in early 60s which was ultimately diverted to utilised in Jaguar following Britain had flatly refused to transferred same R&R jet engine technology to India meant primarily to HAL Maruat. .. irony was British government also thurst same jaguars on Indian government to got survived from its severe economy crises during mid 70s...

It was underpowered, the cockpit was an ergonomic nightmare and the NavWAS (Navigation & Weapon Aiming System) was a disaster.

It was not under-powered. It was powered enough for ground attack role.

Isn't it underpowered? I think it has a 11 degree (iirc) take off angle. Any other angle and u don't get airborne!

My uncle went from being a QRA English Electric Lightning pilot to being a Jaguar pilot. All his stories are from when he flew the Lightning.

The French used to hate the English more than vice versa. For definite. If they want to collaborate then it's fine with us like. I been to France more times than I can count. Half our language is the same. Seems dumb we always seem to be at odds if you ask me, but I can't help other people can I? I can only concentrate on my own game, at least to start with. I like to think I have an English mentality despite not being ethnically English.

The French don't really hate the English, it's more folklore than anything else, the 100 years war or the Napoleonic campaigns are very far away. And then there is a healthy rivalry during rugby games, mainly during the crunch.
