Ace Combat 8 Database
EA-36 Barricader 
An EW aircraft based on the FA-36 Game. It features a specialized radar in the nose radome and additional EW equipment in its rear fuselage. Although this modification reduces the amount of various types of ammunition that can be carried and results in a restricted turning ability compared to the base model, it maintains an excellent level of maneuverability nonetheless. This new generation EW aircraft not only supports allied aircraft with its various electronic systems, but also actively engages in offensive operations that go beyond mere self-defense. Its nickname is "Barricader."

Flight model
The raw flight data from the game files (campaign version). Speeds are in km/h. The other numbers use the game's own units. The values keep the game's field names, because what most of them do is still unknown. Under Stability and Defense are the fields that match those in-game bars best. Mobility matches the rotation rates. How the game calculates the bars is unknown.
The game's curve points for this aircraft are out of order (a lower speed follows a higher one); they are drawn as stored.
