"British t-35" so the A1E1 "Independent"
Japanese non-premium dive bomber
British bomber and a premium bomber (probably the Hudson v)
another ATGM tank
Dev server soon™

>literally whos posting pics of their shitty jap plane stats
stop.

sooo then, is the RaktJpz 2 (HOT) a whole new vehicle? I hope it's just modifications for the existing one or else we're about to see a lot more new ATGMs added.

soon.....

wouldn't a Raketenjagdpanzer 2 with HOT missiles just be a Jaguar 1?

yep

>F9F-8 top speed: 710 MPH

so it will be the fastest jet currently in game

JESUS CHRIST STOP THIS SHIT YOU ARE RUINING THE GAME

>50 MPH short of mach 1
jesus

wew lad, looks like we were wrong :^)

Fastest when leveling out of a dive but it won't outaccelerate MiGs

considering the only thing really stopping the F9F-5 in game from doing anything against MiGs is speed, I think the -8 will do just fine

Oh I'm not saying it shouldn't be good, but I doubt it will be the MiG removal machine people think it will be they said the same about the Hunter, and we all know how that turned out

who on earth was saying it will be a MiG remover

people never hyped the -8 up as that, they hyped it up as at least equal to every other final tier jet

German bias is constant and sharp

when

if the Raketenjagdpanzer 2 (HOT) is a separate vehicle than the SS.11 one, I'd wager in the near future.

STOP IT NEVER

when

when

T4 prems are the best right?

when

They let you research every other tier, so obviously.

No, Talismen is the way to go, plus it's cheaper.

can't do tier 1 as efficiently.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_XB-19
when?

desu a few planes are worth it, particularly on sale.

>prem grif spitters
>D-13
>VK-107

>can't do tier 1 as efficiently.
>tier 1
Seriously, nigger?
Besides that's false. You get 100% efficiency for tiers I-V.

Isn't it +1/-1 for 100% efficiency?

Have you ever had a premium vehicle?

only planes at tier 3

>F-86s, Hunters and Cougars flying together
It's going to be beautiful lads

You'd think that with the addition of an F9F on steroids it would make sense to downtier the straight wing F9Fs, but somehow I don't think that will happen

Tier IV premiums have full efficiency at every tier.

tank grind reduced fucking when

>having trouble researching anything tiers 1-2 (H8K being the sole exception)
lmao

Slav grind should be even worse. you people are cancer ruining this game.

who are you quoting

they're too good for 8.0 but too shit to stay at 9.0

so the logical conclusion obviously is 10.0 BR for end game jets

this

move top tier 9.0s such as hunter, sabres, mig-15/17 and cougar to 10.0 and leave everything else as is

such an easy solution and gaijin flat out refuses to do anything about jets

what's the most ghetto plane in the game

all the early Russian jets definitely

TB-3. Nigga's got bicycle wheels.

Tanks should be 20 BR levels

shittington

Hurrikane MkIIb with nightfighter camo.
Lot's of dakka.

and the camouflage is entirely black

>top tier 9.0s such as hunter
Excuse me?

>sabres
desu the fiddy sabres are fine at 9. It's just the F-2 that needs to go.

>they're too good for 8.0
The F9F-2 isn't

>muh armament

It still has 9.0 performance

The La-15/174, Yak-30, and other planes can compete just fine.

then that means they can compete with F-2 sabres

armament matters far less than performance

>tfw can't fly or spade planes you like because nothing to unlock

Yes, it matters less, but it still matters, and without the very good velocity cannons, the sabre isn't that terrifying a threat.

forgot pig

>No spades

this is my autism

nice blog, I enjoyed it

>Ttfw had most of my German tank line spaded till they added that Crew Replacement module.

Should have just given it to those who already spaded.

Yak-15 is literally a Yak-3 with a stolen German turbojet shoved under the fuselage.

>Cougar Edition
My dick is out and hard

>stolen
Spoils of war. Should have won it.

in which universe do you live in that the current hunter isn't a top tier 9.0

because you'd be a special kind of dumb if you think it isn't

Just because they won doesn't mean they didn't technically steal them.

>hunter isn't top tier

This week in fantasy land, water is dry and the earth has stopped spinning.

Ships when?

No Honor in war.

I'm not here to debate philosophy with you.

Then why complain

>drop 4000lb cookie on vehicles
>only kill two of them

>slower and less maneuverable than migs

you forgot

>outclimbs MiGs in sustained at high speed
>has far superior guns
>has exceptional energy retention now

since the F2 is also 'slower' than MiG-17s, it must also not be top-tier by your logic

retard

>has far superior guns
Everyone look at this retard and laugh

>ADENs
>not superior to the absolute dogshit MiG guns

only a drooling bongshitter could be this delusional

>ADENs aren't the best guns in the game

Are you being retarded on purpose?

>a buckshot of softball velocity rounds is the best jet armament
At last I see. I am the man who sees.

>790-810 m/s
>softball velocity

What did he mean by this?

>790m/s is bad
>The absolutely ridiculous burst mass of the ADENs is bad
Nigga if you hit something it dies
Stop being worse than Helmet at least he can kill something with those godawful 23s

>What did he mean by this?

"I can't lead a target:(("

ok helmet

Helmet?

I really don't know what that is

lmao helmet damage control

edit the .blk for this, should work

live.warthunder.com/post/340342/en/

I'm not even tier 5 in tanks, tier 3 in planes, I really don't know :(

>going 9 kills and 3 assists with a single m3 stuart in games with cromwells n shit

>use 75MM sherman jumbo to bounce shells and get SP to close air support because thats what actually fun about tanks
>end up getting 4 kills and never die because tigers keep showing their sides to me
>next game get up tiered to the point that I can't pen anything even with APCR at 50m

Gaijin fix this stupid BR

when

Having to be near that as it's constantly going off, Bye bye ears.

Actually gaijin wont fix it because people will start to complain about the que times and the BR matchups right now are good

It's not like you did bad...?

A R C A D E

you would probably tunnel vision to the enemy bases and dive bomb them like the arkaden nigger you are, instead you were forced to kill enemy planes, probably meaning you ended up getting more rp
