Gaijin has added another funky German prototype tank to War Thunder with the Zerstorer 45. It is somewhat similar to the Kugelblitz, being based on the Panzer 4, but has no armor and four 30mm cannons instead of two. It's great at shredding both CAS and tanks, so it was a lot of fun for me.

What is the strike master?

@aiedenoldstien9751 Ай бұрын

@shulkfyre6449 It was a previous battlepass vehicle. Its a jet at 6.7 that can get like 100 rockets and handles half decently for a jet. Which something Gajin could do, but they would never do. Though it would be to make a new BR range for ground.

It’s just degenerate when people rush caps just to spawn a plane. They only do it to make up for their skill issue in tanks.

To comment on the squeaking at 1:44. "the squeaking noise comes from the long-barreled Panzer IV's tendency to overload it's front end while steering. I've also noticed this exact thing in IL-2 Tank Crew. The Finnish even noted that the Panzer IV Js they got tended to make their brake drums glow hot red in summer on road marches just from this strain alone" Credit to @yashkasheriff9325 who orgininally commented that on the Panzer 4 G video

It's simple: Whatever Gaijin says or does, it bears no meaning 2-3 years later. Not gonna add XYZ? Gets added 3 years later anyway. Make some changes to a vehicle? Add another years later that doesn't follow the rules. My favourite: They make T-34 driver hatch a weakspot, then 4 years later they change it back based on some bug report.

Cromwells and Comets are underrated gems. They're medium tanks that play a lot like light tanks because they're fast, have decent armor pen, and practically no armor. I do wish they properly fixed the Comet's APDS because historically, it's powerful enough to punch through the UFP of a Panther.

@Gary_The_Metro Ай бұрын

Dude you don't even need scouting to get this kind of bullshit done. A single assist is often enough to spawn in a plane with bombs, especially in uptiers. You don't need to use a light tank or have scouting. You could do it in a heavy tank. As it is right now, planes are beyond easy to spawn in.

They should make ground tanks only (other than the nuke), then make a combined arms game, where all three types of vehicles can play. Like there could be an air battle with planes trying to destroy bases and provide ground support for tanks, naval tries to also provide ground support and eliminate the enemy ships, and tanks going around doing their thing. There’d have to be maps made for this but I think it would be awesome.

Fun fact about the AU-1, it almost doubles as a fighter so the SP can be relatively low, HOWEVER, the average SP for that is 422 I think. Despite this, the best load out is a custom load out with 2 1000kgs and 1 2000kg and the rest rockets for open tops. Any AU-1 player with common sense would at the very minimum try to get 640 or so to get 3 bombs or the bomb and rocket load out at 690. Single 2000kg is about 50 sp so 490, so it’s painfully easy to get, not worth it though as it’s a one trick pony and only used if you REALLY want to spawn in an AU-1 today.
