This triggers the present-day soy boy.

3rd for the glassing of Moscow when?

>Good luck killing more than one person before you get strafed by a 190 or 335
how bad do you have to be

when ?
never

What is the best tank of tier III, and why is it the Australian Cruiser Tank MK IV Thunderbolt (Sentinel)

what is flatpanzer

sixth for animefags genocide when?

>be jap pilot
>strafe parachuting pilot
>get killed by m1911
less weight totally worth it

Can the apcr round on stug III g (170 mm penetration) go through Jumbo turret?

If you hit the side or maybe rear, you've got a chance, but I wouldn't trust APCR against a flat surface 10 meters away
You're better off just flanking)))))) or, if they're angled at all, going for a shot at the armor behind the tracks

I'd rather aim for the MG port with APHE.

>your shell completely disappears
>enemy notices the sound of your gun, turns and instantly nukes you

try roof with aphe, game mechanics are shit as fuck

>63mm at 60 degrees slope
how about no

shoot the MG port with APHE if he is close and dead on

try the cupola

try the tracks (drive wheel) if he is angled

>shoots the right side of your transmission, killing your driver, gunner and commander with the firefly's gun
Heh, nothing personnel cunt

Achtually it's closer to 130mm Effective Thickness.

I already know the 2 major weak spots of Jumbo. Since stug is casemate it's not easy to go to the side and meme Jumbo, as well as I prefer to keep distance, I want to explore other options.
Apparently apcr is a no-go, thanks for the reply

Trap shot it with your APCR/AP shells.

Bottom corners of the turret mantlet

>He says this as he struggles to kill stugs and Hetzers in his jumbo.

>playing the jumbo
>not just spraying down panzers with 50s from the sky

Tier 6 doesn't necessarily have to be supersonic jets. It could just be transonic jets armed with missiles, like the Hunter F6 in pic related.

>flank is6 with my tiger two
>stop to get in position and get the perfect side shot
>in a fraction of a second he turns like if he was some kind of light tank looking at me
>he shoots me and kills me
>he kills a panther afterwards that was flankling him as well
Total fair and balanced tank

>premium expires
>have to get like 5 kills and 2 assists every game to avoid losing SL
I forgot this feel

It makes me glad a I bought a Space Fire years ago to go grind lions in.

whos the fag ?
stock plane so i cant catch the hobbit and teamkill it

>fire APDS at IS-6
>hit the shot trap and instantly blow him up

One in a fucking million, I bet he chimped out at his PC as well.

>bullying JG

pls don't they are now a protected species

Unfair and unbalanced tovaricsh!

>MiG-21 with Slav eyeball
pretty sure they were using the eyeball 2.0 by that point

Note the nose, though. And the burger is an amerimutt and the slav is a mongol rapebaby.
The more memes change, the more they stay the same.
And whatever else I might think of the corny racism of war propaganda, I can't deny that some really skilled artists were involved. The sheer amount of more or less subtle stereotyping going on just in this small image is kind of impressive.

>in bagelpanzer
>loader gets killed while shooting
>reload entire belt
))))
if they dont fix that bug before french tanks then french are gonna be fucked

I'm sure if they don't do it before, they'll get right on it after they're released, because a fuckton of goyim whining about it will get them off their asses pretty fast so they don't fuck up and lose the flow of shekels when word gets out their totally balanced 40$ premium is bad in any way

F-100 and MiG-19 when?

>Flying a FW that close to the ground/restricting it's maneuverability even more with a torp
Might as well J out after you drop the thing

mig 21 used a some kind of radar tho

So do you actually bother with rangefinders and all that garbage, or do you just use the chad binocs to aim?

looks like shit photoshop

Usually I only actually fiddle with the sight distance and rangefinder when I can't be assed to find the magic line after every shot, or I just want to sit waiting at a certain range and be sure of things
Otherwise I just guesstimate and fire, usually works well enough

>playing tank rb
>see MiG-9L chasing down a J7W
>J7W does one of those retarded flips
>MiG zooms right past
>shoot the J7W down before chasing after the MiG
>it respawns in a kikka

So the Bearcat is pretty fun.

>even thinking of using virgin rangefinder
>not snapshoting everything kilometers away
lmao

used a lot on brummbar or any other memecannon

New historical campaign videos

>300mm on pen
>can't go through an IS 6
nice

is-6 has 600 armor from every angle

just flank bro

Is the whole point of the M48 to just die right as you're about to accomplish something?

>M48
>doing something
lol

Dunkirk is out on bluray

thanks user

self christmas gift

premium avenger when so they finally have to fix that fucking gunsight

Amerimutt is a recent meme, Americans have been considered white.

Jesus, jet combat really is cancer huh? Playing the p80 and fucking G91 decloaks behind you every match

fun

>he spawns on uptiers

>playing jets
???

I'm sure they'll fix it after I spade it.

>400mm on pen
>can't go through an IS 6
nice

>pounding shit in french helldiver
>kraut dives from space to deck to kill me
>catches me off guard but rear gunner lands 1 hit on him
>he proceeds to dive into underworld
>counts as kill
why do they always do that ?

WHEN????

>last Hellcat on our team decides he wants to turnfight a C.205
Can being a massive shitter be a bannable action?

if it was a fw190, those things cant pull up thx to ))))

Take 45 min of fuel and they can.

but the hellcat can easily turn with a C.205

...

is 45min better than 20?

Try it. It does help alot. You will be heavier but it's the price to pull up from dives.

When)))

ded

Only after this)))

Name the plane that is terrible but you have good luck in, or you think is undervalued

>undervalued
b7a2, helldiver
Both can outturn most fighters they face and good cannons with uni. belts

P51D5
it might not have the acceleration of the D30, but it still has the climb rate and speed
it was a bitch to spade, but it got really fun after engine injection

>uni belts on type 99mk2's
Why? Tracer is the way to go.

idk, somebody once recommended them and ever since i've nuked planes. feels like being handheld

...

DELETE THIS!

P-47M. I've literally never seen anyone else use it but me. I shit all over spitniggers in it after I figured out how to properly use it

Easy to do when the tanks don't have crew.And then he was killed by canadians with 75mm shermans.

I repeat,your "super elite" tank ace was eradicated by a fucking leaf!

How badly unfair is ULQ?
Post some screenshots

...

user,i think your graphics card is dying.

>youve never seen anyone use the P47M
how new are you?

...

What about Ardenes?

>P-47M
>terrible
you're the worst shitter on this fucking game

>christopher nolan

>"People" will defend this

>IS6
>bushes

try and stop me

>reading comprehension

if the wiki gun tables can be trusted then HEF has more than double the HE damage rating than HEF-T, and also considerably higher fire rating
