I fucking hope we get swing-wings in the future

Basic guide on Flying the MC.202EC?

>that door on the back
what the hell

Like a 109. The entire Italian fighter line flies like 109s

>32
how ?

I'm hyped for APHE finally maybe kinda behaving like IRL.

>"oi Ahmed, how come your momma lets you have FOUR cannons?"

Playing War Thunder is literally, LITERALLY, all that guy does.

> In Chad they even used the aft station for a "bombardier" and his "special stores" – empty beer bottles – as these were considered as non-lethal weapons, thus not breaking the government-imposed rules of engagement, during operations against Libyan-supported rebels in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

remember when the dev server for 1.71 had new machine gun impacts that weren't gigantic fucking smoke clouds? it was such a good change that they didn't fucking add it to the game

???
They did..

Patch next thursday.

>comment about the RU 251 players in the in-game chat
>guy on my team immediately comes to their defense and spergs out at me
really makes you think

being able to remove shells from the breech fucking when
No, they didn't

>crying in chat

>he doesn't shitpost in the in-game chat and make others angry

>not being good at the game instead
>implying i didn't fuck your mom

>view port absorbs any shell you throw at it
Maybe the world should just start developing tanks covered in viewports, because no shot would ever penetrate them

>play realistic with 229
>shoot down 2 F84 shitters
>land to refuel and change belts
>get killed by a drunk russian with a A1/U4 who was just doing """"aerobatics"""" around our airfield the whole fucking time

)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

>implying being like any sane person and thing RU 251 players are all niggers who should be gassed has anything to do with skill
>implying I didn't fuck your dad

Yesterday i shot a Panther in the viewport and the crew cam showed that it redirected all the shrapnel inside the tank

Please do not lie on the internet

yes they did

>implying there's anything wrong with the Ru251 other than the fact that it's undertiered cold war trash
>implying my dad doesn't have progeria

Which jap T3 premium do I get? I assume with all the airstarting japs get 190 would be really good, but i never played the turney planes so A7M1 looks pretty interesting and i assume the Ki-96 is shit just like 90% of all interceptors.

>>implying there's anything wrong with the Ru251
>implying you have an IQ higher than that of a drunken amoeba

I wouldn't lie to you friend

>it's another ULQ Object 906 sees you 1km away through three layers of trees and bushes episode

I don't know why I play this game anymore

>fast as fuck jet bomber with massive ordnance and quad 30 mm cannons in 8.0
>inferior Mystere variant is 9.0
Why is Gaijin so stupid?

AD-4 added to American tree when?

>shell disappears when I try to shoot through hole I can obviously shoot through
>guy i wanted to shoot at shoots right through it afterward
I swear to fucking god these drunk fucking monkeys need to do a complete rework on hitboxes and collision for ground objects

>gives opinion on every plane's appearance
also
>alllllllllll of those options for payload on the AD4

>Luck the fuck out get an 80k Lions reward this money
>oooh shit I can finally get my M6A1 or Jumbo

>Forget the -50 was for a day only

Whelp.

A7M, or throw in some more coins and get J2M

delay should be no longer than with F-84G

get the a7m1, even with it's engine being weaker than that of the a7m2 it's still disgustingly strong, and you won't go bankrupt for flying it either

Motherfucking B17s are immune to anything that isn't a 50MM HE. They give zero fucks about twin 30MM paired with twin 20MM.

Make sure your firing something with HEF or hell just HEI

SLAP/HVAP/AP will just punch right through.

Where do I unsubscribe?

It doesn't matter what you shoot. I had 20MM load with HEI and 30MM with AP. I landed about 90 shots into one of the wings, fuckers engines didn't even smoke.

I keep forgetting the MiG-25 is fuckin huge.

probably too much HE. Aganist big targets you want some AP that won't explode on surface doing jackshit to what's deeper inside, unless you attack from above/bellow. I'd recommend 30 mm full HE, and 20 mm mixed HE/AP.

So you went for tiny targets and miss everything

>shoot IL-2 with 88 flak
>"""hit"""
I bet it bounced off that fucking windshield

>These are the types of players complaining about Americans.

FRENCH TANKS WHEN
mostly so I can shit fire all over people with the AD4 and vantour

>what is fuze limit

>Can clearly see HE going off and small bits flying off the wing
>Miss everything.
Fuck off nigger, this happens every time, B17s just doesn't give a fuck no matter how much you shoot. It even survived a 50MM HE to the wing now that i took out 410B-2 for a spin.

I hit a F6F-5N with a 57mm last night and oinly got a crit

I should have bought a six pack of bushes when they were available.

Is it just me or do French jets seem a bit disappointing, besides the SO.4050 2A it all just seems "eh"

I just killed B-17 with D-13. Sprayed his wing with 20 mm twice, and bugged off to watch him die to airspeed.

>not loading ap and sniping the pilot from behind through the tail

Alright, the Ta154 for SL or the bong Hellcat for research?

>decide to use APHE instead of HEAT-FS in my M46
>shit all over RU 251 and slav players

>join the tournament when i only have one vehicle so my team has no chance of winning

Why didn't the Germans develop stabilisation in their tanks? Fucking tanks are cancer to drive since the gun wobbles as if on sea.

>it's another "fuck this match a goner, might as well fuck around" match
>actually fucking bully this guy to death
didn't think lil 37mm APCR could even pen any of the tanks I was against

nice blog

>t.assblasted faggot

>put at least 10-14 30mm rounds (MK103)
>B17 still flying
>kills me with a pilot snipe

just fucking kill me

37 mm can pen things in every tier

How are tiny tims compared to HVARs?

they're big

>french bombers get Hispano turrents a 2.0

lmao

>turrents

Sorry.

What exactly does this mean?

It's the shell order. One HVAP followed by two IT then one API.

Someone posted it last thread saying the ho229 is usable now, desu I don't see anything different about it

High velocity armor piercing tracer / Incendiary tracer / Armor piercing incendiary

Wouldn't it be unusable? I thought the old belt was just straight HVAP, which would make this one a downgrade for killing ground targets.

>ostwind hits me ONCE (1) (one) (uno) (δΈ€) in my M41A1
>crew knocked out

Mk 103 is being nerfed aganist tanks, now only 50% of shells can pierce any armor. I suppose it's just another step of nefing air to appease tankers whining

>costs a million dull kitties to expert crew a premium
you'd think it'd be less because premium

>37mm can kill a tank with no armor and interior space
wew

>defending spaa niggers
sorry i don't talk to apes

When does the sale end?

Why does Gaijin constantly flip flop between le historical accuracy and balancing for the sake of balance?

Because they're literal drunk chimps smacking on a keyboard
see: the recent nerf to the Shillelagh on the M551 and M60A2

4U

>the MiG-25 is only 2 feet longer than the F-14
Its not that big of a plane, its just bigger than the tiny single seat craft the Russians kept making.

>accidentally push teammate and he dies
>spergs out in chat and starts going on about report me for griefing and a niggeru 251 for spawn rushing
why are people so fucking autistic

did the waffle earn the title of best rank 3 kraut AFV or that still goes to the flatpanzer

Nice blog!

>heavier projectile that has to be loaded in a very specific way has a longer reload speed than the regular round
WOOOOW DUDE

holy shit this is way more original planes than i though
gaijin put real work into this

2.6sec reload for FV4005 FUCKING WHEN

...

>posting some retard's chat log
not an argument

How long did they spend on this tree again? a year?

Somewhat related War Thunder? What's that?, I was surprised to realise how derphueg the SR-71 is. Always thought of it as smaller than a fighter.

Shut the fuck up fag.

Type 5 APHE never EVER
