The Yak-28B would have been useless in Air Assault, so I skipped straight to Air RB.

I think the Yak-28B used to have an air spawn (being a bomber and all) but at present it takes off from the runway. Acceleration on the runway looks pretty average here, but that might depend on whether the match is an up-tier.
Harriers have such good acceleration on the runway, you probably can't catch up in this "supersonic" jet.

1:08 I'm already getting a speed warning, so I cut off the afterburners.
(Speed is limited by airspeed, not Mach number.)

The default bomb load (and the first bomb loads you unlock) knock about half the hit points off a base. To get credit for base destruction mostly means some other teammates bombed the same base, or you take the time to land, rearm, and bomb it again.

When I was trying to land, I was surprised to find this plane doesn't have air brakes. The flaps are limited to a speed around 400mph (and if you want metric it's on the War Thunder wiki) and to slow down to flap speed you just have to go to zero throttle and coast long enough.

4:22 The next surprise was that the flaps are better air brakes than flaps. With most planes, once I lower the flaps to the landing position I can coast the rest of the way down with little to no power. With this plane, it seems to need significant power to avoid slowing down too much
I needed to maintain over 200mph to have good control of the plane.
(Also, slowing down to flap speed put me pretty far past the airfield.)

When you're about to touch down it seems to want about 40% throttle to maintain enough speed.

There was more to the match, but this plane doesn't strafe worth a damn, and I'm not Defyn so I wasn't trying to dogfight anyone with it.
Just one more sortie to a base and back.

6:41 Score screen. First upgrade unlocked, on the first mission, with less than half a ton of explosives on target.
6:55 The post-mission message shows I was credited with 3 base destructions.
"Damage to bases" and "Reward for winning" both paid more than the count of bases destroyed.
