What the fuck is that video

Come on man this isn't fair, the slavs cant do shit against this plane

what kind of ammo should I use in RB air battles?

nothing, its just generals birthday

>posted from my twin engine airborne holocaust delivery system

always choose the belts with the most high explosive ammo, if you have good aim then use stealth ammo

mfw finally get to use ZSU 23 4. Swatting down 3+ aircraft every game. I enjoy this more than fucking T-64. Can't wait to unlock same shit with M163 on burgers.

YES

>mfw the same thing in the B-57B in sim ec
Go bomb a base/runway, loiter at high altitude and pounce on unaware jets, this excellent.

you're just a shitter at high alt doing shit

>t. breathless nazi

unironically fucking this, that's probably the only reason why gaijin took rb ec away

3 times in a row this has happened, do they have no common courtesy?

Play arcade you literal retard. Just club shitters for 10 minutes and you get as much RP as rb. By the time you cucks get to altitude arcade shitters are almost done with their match

EC has fuckall for SL though.

When you say that they only hear "hey I'm going to be a pinata."

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand russian tanks. The strengths are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of late-war german metallurgy and terminal ballistics most of the replays will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also the russians' explosive filler, which is deftly woven into his APCBC shells- his TNT equivalent draws heavily from Lend-Lease explosives from the United States, for instance. The tankers understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the penetration of these shells, to realize that they're not just deadly- they say something deep about worldwide bolshevik revolution. As a consequence people who dislike russian tanks truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in a russian tanker's existential catchphrase "cyкa блять," which itself is a cryptic reference to Stalin’s philosophical proposition “Я - нeчeлoвeчecкaя гpyдa дepьмa.” I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Mikhail Koshkin's genius unfolds itself on their monitor screens. What fools... how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a Hammer and Sickle tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

desu it may be a meme pasta but this is probably what vodkachimps think

gajin fucked up conection, again
fucking ping 999

nice numbers
I still think it could be improved

i wanna play cold war ussr but i dont wanna grind ww2 ussr garbage

I don't have an MBT-70, but I do have an IS-3 and I get uptiered to MBT-70.

Meh, it's not that bad. For me the fun begins around yak-3/la-5

post ec

I don't care if their vehicles are good, it's a russian propaganda game so that much is obvious.

is-3 is 7.3
mbt is 8.7

doesnt add up, nigga

>IS-3 uptiering to MBT-70
Nice try, burgershit

Buy La-11 and grind up to cold war shit with it, it is a cold war prop anyways with multiple NATO planes that strayed into soviet airspace and civilian airliners confirmed.

>that UFO against laggs
is balanse))))

When did they change the focus from Realism to Balance?

When it became clear that vehicles designed by permanently drunk savage subhuman beasts were inferior to those made by civilized people.

Yeah, German tanks don't stand a chance in reality.

What BR would you place it? 5.7 right? Maybe even 6.0? nope, it (the P-51D-30) is 4.7, and amerisharts will not only defend it but will say it's hard to fly.

Now I remember why I don't play this shit mode

Please, is there any way to make the clouds in Air RB not be so unbelievably bright? I can't even see my tracers when shooting at someone because of it, and fiddling with post-fx just messes up the brightness for everything

I was actually looking for a solution to that yesterday and after a few hours of googling and fiddling with settings I fixed it by uninstalling

Probably ricocheted from the ground to your tank

Slavs have NOTHING that can fight a ki-84 evenly. Not that anyone has anything on it, except maybe the balancefire LF mk.9
Always found it funny though how in RB EC the japs get 6.3 br planes and russians bests are 5.0

I am fucking jelly, tired of all the ground strikes at 6.0 br where everyone is at 10km form one another

Sure they do. 7 or 8 planes can easily take out one ki-84,

ayyy
