Planes that participate in this phase:

* {{Template:JetFighterBomber2}},{{Template:JetFighterBomber1}} Jet-type Fighter-Bombers

* {{Template:JetFighterBomber2}},{{Template:JetFighterBomber1}} "Jets" (turbojet propelled fighter-bombers)

If any carrier on either side is equipped with [[Jets]], the Jet Assault (JA) Phase will commence first of all. The JA Phase may only commence during a combat where it is allowed to perform an '''Airstrike'''. The JA follows the same rules as the Stage 3 - Airstrike phase.

The defending side is allowed to defend against the Jets following the same rules as the ones from Stage 2 - Fleet AA Defense, however Jets possess increased resistance against enemy anti-air fire specifically during the Jet Assault Phase.

The defending side is allowed to defend against the Jets following the same rules as the ones from Stage 2 - Fleet AA Defense, however, Jets possess great [[Anti-Air_Fire#Shoot_Down_Resistance|shootdown resistance]], specifically during the Jet Assault Phase.

Jets are not excluded from the Stage 3 - Airstrike phase, but in exchange they are subject to enemy Anti-Air prior the JA, and again on Stage 2 - Fleet AA Defense.
