Maybe a small run on Object 906? I bet I'll be fun a bit. Or on T18E2 in arcade?

It's good that CAS is becoming hard to use. Hopefully they continue to add very capable spaas to other nations to cut down on the heli spam thats plaguing the game atm.

I felt that Hunter. Russia is busted.

@@YeetThyBaby no we are going to get ECM and AESA this year so mudsuckers can keep malding like the gluttons they are

@@YeetThyBaby HARMs please.

not only fast, but it also has pretty small smoke trail, makes pilots even harder to detect the apporaching missile.

I was just lucky man, there is no gameplay against Pantsir .. only luck, so I'm going to wish good and huge luck for you, if you didn't spot it in 2 seconds I advise you to pull off and try again.

@@Hunter_i86 so patience is the key, as always. I'll wait for more F-16 videos. Thank you!

@@Hunter_i86 btw can you do similar thing with f4e or f16 is simply better for this?

@Dipro Sla F4+F5E will be infinitely better for dodging sams as they turn wayyyyy better above 400 mph. . . Though F16s will get better tech unfortunately in the future rather than the F4E :P

Clean save

Hello my friend, all good .. thanks :)

Wow

Thanks :)

9:06 flares

Awesome! Thank you so much brother .. stay well

@@Hunter_i86 you too. Do you ever go LIVE?

Hello, I feel Walleye is better at gliding ..

Maverick is the worst missile in the game, I would use Bullpup over Maverick any day.

Haha congrats my friend

They should have variable zoom by now lmaooo

@@LewisB3217they do you just have to bind it

Thanks a lot!

Yeah I was just playing FlaRakRad so wasn't very effective on the ground, Justin did a great job be we still lost ..

Gaijin recently increased the render distance in GBU gun sight

Spotting the target is like 70% of the job when flying F-16, it is not easy at all.

@@Hunter_i86 true I only see the AAA when it starts shooting missles at me you get a small window to release your bombs at that point

I hate Maverick, it is slow and explodes in air if a wooden fence or a tent rope got in the way!

@@Hunter_i86 it used to be good but now its dumb down a lot

@@blank141 pretty much all TV guided ordnance is shit. The only usable A-10 is the tech tree variant with IR mavericks but its also missing all the fun stuff. The premium has the fun stuff but it has the shitty (and incorrectly modeled) TV guided mavericks. Theyre both literally the same plane, they should be the same BR, have the same armament options, and be able to carry the same amount (4x Aim-9Ls), and both are shit compared to the SU-25s and A-6E. They need to remove the artificial limits and stop artificially limiting aircraft armaments unless it is absolutely necessary, which it isnt in the case of the A-10 (and never was). If they want to justify the A-10 premium just name it after someone or give it a special unique skin and stop with the bullshit.

That's the one man, what a coward! I will show it in a video to immortalize his cheapness, also when you nuked them I said: "Thank you so much for nuking them Alex"

@@Hunter_i86 this is just a new low I thought we would never reach… but then again this is War Thunder we are talking about

Same here, moving to other games. I had big hopes for japan to get something but boy was i wrong, it was Russia that needed AA badly... Equally broken game as it was when KA-50 came.

Same as you think I decided to move to anothers game for the time beign its like theyre just laughing at everyone and try to shove it (if you want a "decent" experience) A premium vehicle its a shame the course this game has been taking for a good time and it seems they dont want to change any of that

war thunder... you know WAR in its title. During war you adapt and its never balanced) As a heli main (25 days in helis or 9k+ matches) I see a lot of unbalanced BS everywhere from spawn points, render limitations, invulnerable revenge spaas for 20 sec, proxyfuses and 100 brownings on every vehicle, ecm-proof stingers. List of complains goes on and on. Half of these difficulties were added in last 2 years. And you know what? I got better. I didn't quit.

@@fomnik9276 And what helicopter would that be ?

did the same as well, now I m trying new builds at elden ring and ciuv ciuv at the hogwards :D

These bombs were more fun, but Gaijin love to arcade things more and more, adding the CCIP reticle that still ON in all times was bullshit in my opinion. Yeah in the time of the video it was just estimating with the right flying parameters.

@@Hunter_i86 i have only been playing wt since November and i know that many people dont like this system is this being treated this way because it is unrealistic? or is it not needed because bombs can be dropped your way?

Thanks a lot, I used music from Ace Combat and Aries Beats.

@@Hunter_i86 Thank you!

What did they do to the VT-1? I honestly wouldn’t know as I literally hate playing with SPAAs. I don’t find sitting there the whole match star gazing.

@@Whereismydad114 The VT1 feels very heavy now. It's unreliable at close range and is also horrible to steer at longer distances. The VT1 platforms also have a worse radar than the Pantsir which makes a huge difference. It's much harder to kill Ka50's now. So not only did Russia get the most overpowered SAM - the same patch also nerfed the best NATO missile to allow even more Russian air to absolutely dominate you. "beam-riding" missile surely got not "changed" because the Russian Helis use them, so would nerf them too.

All saclos missiles got nerfed into the ground

✌🙂

I even read in Reddit that the damn Pantsir has thermal camo, it is not showing like other targets on TGP thermal screen. Some people said it is a bug with the new thermal.

@@Hunter_i86 It was a bug that caused vehicles to appear cold in thermal view. Supposedly it was fixed in yesterday’s update.

Thanks ✌

They are not guided at this range, just precision strike.

@@Hunter_i86 that's a bummer

TV weapons are fire and forget but they are not guided at long ranges, just precision strikes.

At these ranges these are not guided bombs at all, only precision strikes .. try to start searching around enemy base then other locations.

I don't hate SPAAs at all, I like that WT is combined arms .. to achieve victory there must be some kind of teamwork between battle roles, between tanks, SPAA, helicopters and jets .. the whole update was unnecessary in my opinion .. the battle between CAS and SPAA was ok even with more advantage to 90 spawn points SPAA vehicles that don't need making any effort to be earned, jets pilots are always, always outnumbered .. because to use a jet you need to make 10 times amount of SP than SPAA requires .. and I'm still ok with that. Right now .. and in the current situation I'm still not very eager to anti radar missiles like a lot of people but I really want MAW for jets that have them in real life, like Harrier GR.7 or F-16, because right now pulling off blindly just because you got paranoid and thought there was a red one pixel is coming after you with no RWR warning, no smoke trail is not really gameplay, it is just luck.

@@Hunter_i86 I agree, I love Warthunder for the aspect that it is in fact a combined arms game. Teamwork (although gaijin time and time again has done nothing but discourage it by nerfing rewards or having 0 rewards) is also very very important to winning. While yes it is POSSIBLE for a single person to change the tide of a game and pull a win, it's rare. Especially if they do it with CAS because if the people on the ground aren't pulling their weight, the guy in CAS can kill as many people as he wants but if no one caps the point it does nothing but make the number on the leaderboard bigger. I don't hate SPAA either. I do dislike the people who complain about there being a "CAS problem" when there isn't unless you look at the KA-50 and KA-52. There is no CAS problem and there hasn't been for a long time. The only problem with CAS is when it gets spammed, which admittedly shouldn't be possible there should be a limit on how many aircraft can be up at one time per team but at the same time, if CAS is being spammed I try to let people know it is because they and their team LET it happen by not retaliating. Hunter you are a VERY good CAS pilot and pilot in general, you I'm sure can admit that when there is a COMPETENT SPAA up it makes it a lot harder for you to do your job because you have to focus on it and actively try to outsmart or out gun the SPAA. But when there isn't it is very easy to perform CAS too, especially if when someone does spawn an SPAA they don't pay attention. I'm not as good as you but I would say I'm still a pretty good CAS pilot (I still have a lot to learn when it comes to fighting other jets though) usually I only take out CAS if I think there isn't SPAA up, and when there is it's very very hard to do my job when the player knows what they're doing. When it comes to anti radiation missiles I also am not too eager about it. To me it's not needed at all, and plus I see it as just another thing Gaijin will half-ass the implementation of and implement them poorly. On top of that they are extremely easy to counter. Just shut off your radar and move a couple meters and wait for it to miss you while you continue tracking the plane with IRST. It won't be useful like people think it will. Anyway I appreciate you replying it's always nice, I love watching your videos in and out of frustrating updates! I still hope one day they decide to remove the artificial limits on both the A-10s, they're fun to use when there's no SPAA but when there is, the missing armaments really hurt. There's no reason for the nerfs anymore anyhow. I love my A-10 but I rarely use it because it's so hard to have an opportunity to use it and not be immediately killed. I think it's funny that full rack (or even half rack because they cost the same as 6) of mavericks cost more than a load of 5 Laser guided GBUs on my A-6E when the GBUs are far more reliable and can be used in all conditions. I typically use my A-6E simply because it costs less than the A-10 and yet is way more effective.

As soon as I saw you calling the 2s6 the best spaa in game I knew everything you were gonna say was bullshit and just stopped reading 😂😂😂

Hello my friend, good luck :)

As far as I experienced, missiles like Maverick and PARS can be shot down with SPAA missiles but they are hard to spot, while bombs like Walleye and GBU-8 are easier to spot but can be shot down with guns only, it is a balance thing I guess. I use 1.0 sec fuse on all bombs, TV and laser when they ruined bombs since around 3 months.

@@Hunter_i86 Thanks for the response! Yeah, I've been facing some issues with GBU-8 only destroying optics or tracks unfortunately.

@@Wolfm4ster dont worry, Bullpups, mavericks, Laser Guided bombs, literally anything with explosive action is doing fuck all damage alot now. Even just normal dumb bombs, tiny tims, FFAR, etc.

Hmmm hello my friend, you can drop it at 1000m altitude if you are supersonic and it can reach 10km distance, also toss it a little bit before drop, always .. I mean help the bomb and the bomb will help you.

​@@Hunter_i86 why toss?

Cool! nice to meet you my friend :)

No thermal

@@Hunter_i86 Bruh

Yeah, exactly .. give us one of three things: 1- RWR warning or 2- Visible missile (Not barely visible pixel) or 3- MAW

Make sure to be supersonic before drop, good luck. 👍

@@Hunter_i86 set got it

Hello my friend, I'm glad you are ok .. thanks a lot for the kind comment, I appreciate it :)

They are not guided from that range, it is a precision strike .. but if they get no warning why they move? Also picking the right target is on pilot, like a tank in sniping position or an SPAA on the hunt. Some of the targets in video were captured by the bomb because I was close, like T-80 & T-90 in Alamein desert map for example.

@@Hunter_i86 Suppose they don't have any particular reason to move unless they see you, I've just had limited success at that sort of range.

@@Kompotamus well tbh no one really worries about the skies if a plane is 7km away especially when you trying to concentrate on the ground

Worst missile in the game, half of the times it will get bugged and explode in air and it even can't kill sometimes, I got a "hit" on a TOR M1 with maverick lol.

@@Hunter_i86 Fun. So still no viable CAS for Japan. Fuck me. Why can’t Japan get anything good?

If you are supersonic GBU-8 will do the job.

Italy, Japan and Israel still awaiting their AA's btw

VT1 is unbearable now. Your missile is likely to just smack into the ground right after firing it atm

Yes all SAM misiles perform like a truck

Doesnt change much when you fire with a lock tho

The whole update is unnecessary

They lost their mind lol 😆

Worst missile in the game lol

yes, stop playing for a week at least and see how they respond when the active player numbers falls low. also stop buying premiums at full prices. i've quit playing this game. since early last year every update has been about adding broken stuff to Russia and nerfing stuff that NATO has

@@kiranplays2688 I mean, every nation has busted stuff, hence why I am grinding the PUMA, it's still busted and Gaijin doesn't care, so screw it, I want to kill Russian tanks and be nearly immune to all damage.
