Back in Enigma's Cold War Server and back in the F1 just in time for the F-4 Phantoms to be released and spread over every server. Red were so heavily outnumbered that I had to jump on and face down my first Phantoms. Joined by Hez on SRS and Evil on Discord.

That first fight... *Misses Phantom with both fox 2s* *Misses Phantom with guns* *Flies up to the Phantom and uses the 30mm cannon rounds as melee weapons* You, calmly and coolly: "Splash Phantom." 😎

Haha, yup. It made a good thumbnail but it was such a messy kill. Need to learn the nato brevity code for "I won despite severe skill issues"

Looks like phantom can hold it's own versus F1. Especially in slow fight. Good video.

dude what an awesome thumbnail

@Dr_Jebus Ай бұрын

Thank you! So happy with how it came out

23:30 you tried to bully the smoking F4, he brought his buddy 😂

@rutrose2000 Ай бұрын

12:35 Now that is a proper Furball.

Fucking phenomenal thumbnail Jebus! Wow

Thank you! Was really happy with how it came out

The Mirage F1 radar seems a bit too good to be true.

@Dr_Jebus Ай бұрын

Oh, it definitely is. They really need to work on that and get better ground scattering

@nazradu Ай бұрын

It's a pitty, that you can't use radar on ECW in F-4 or your FPS melt into single digits. Hotfix incomming with next patch

@RoamingAdhocrat Ай бұрын

it's not a hotfix if it's part of a scheduled update. hotfixes by definition are unscheduled, urgent

@aztec0112 Ай бұрын

I doubt if a Phantom can last a fight with a Christen Eagle or a Rata! It is objectively awfully after wheels up

@mikeck4609 Ай бұрын

lol…was prettt clear to everyone that blue for was going to be heavy for the next few weeks. I guess they can’t put the F-4 on both sides huh? Out of the 36 blue, how many were F-4s? 33?

@Dr_Jebus Ай бұрын

Yeah, pretty much. The odd F5 or A10 but it was pretty much F4s Vs those few reds

@NuclearFalcon146 Ай бұрын

F-4E can technically be a "red" jet because of Iran (Same applies to Mirage F1 but because of Iraq) but then you run into IFF issues if it is on both sides. Wait, that could potentially make for a decent plane set for an Iran-Iraq war map.

@Eleolius Ай бұрын

Enigma needs to allow 2x S530EM not just 1... giving blue F4E with 4x Sparrow 4x AIM9 and all the rest is too much.

@Dr_Jebus Ай бұрын

Yeah I think it's going to take a few balance passes before everything settles

F-4 "not a fighter"....so true...great fighter-Bomber and Interceptor for high flying bombers...also, I have no idea how experienced the blue force F-4 pilots are, but they are not fighting the F-4 properly. Down low they should be using aim-9's, sparrows are pretty useless in the ground clutter, and they aren't using their power to climb out and drain the energy of the F-1's and then re-engage. Getting into a one circle with the F-1 is a recipe for a nice flight in a parachute.

@NuclearFalcon146 Ай бұрын

I heard there is a big issue with that thinking in War Thunder. F-4 players have a habit of bombing bases rather than helping their team win air superiority and team fights only to then get surrounded because they did not help their team.

@@NuclearFalcon146 The F-4 can be an effective in air-air when dealing with aircraft like the F1, Mig-21, and F-5...if the F-4 is working as a flight with proper teamwork. In a flight of two, I would have called a tactical spread and direct attack and cover. Even with modern BVR capable aircraft like the 16, we employ team tactics in engagement. Sole attempts generally lead to sight seeing from the silk ride.
