The Italian AS 42 is an armored car that is a menace in War Thunder's lower tiers. It's pretty good as a tank destroyer and an anti-air vehicle, though it has absolutely no survivability.

This Car Shreds Tanks
I know the comment says AS 42/47, I made a slight reading error :(
ples play T-72B3 i begs u
Wawa
Bushed up Sturmtiger, please Spookston.
You can always play the one with the big iron :DDDDDD
shame on you, actually disliked and unsubbed because of that
The M2A2 is another vehicle similar to this one. It's a .50 cal on a much faster Stuart and it's really fun.
M8 LAC have .50 cal on 1.0
@@azbestowa7819op
@@azbestowa7819he made a video on that already
M2A2 really is something, alot more fun to play on than M2 atleast
@@azbestowa7819If the LAC is god tier, I'd say the M2A2 is high tier. People sleep on it. You can do well as long as you don't rush in.
I absolutely adore this gremlin mobile. It fits so well with the other 20mms in the lowtier line up, making it feel like you have different flavors of the same vehicle. Giuseppe the gunner has eaten so much shrapnel and cannon shells, it feels like he's four crewmen in one and any solid shots will just go throw one door and out the other. By far one of my fav vehicles and as an Italian main, if I need some stress relief from high tier, the AS and the rest of the lineup gives me what I crave.
Trying to survive this in arcade is so hard it’s hilariously fun when you don’t die immediately
You should also try the TPK 6.41
Basically the same but it comes in a bigger size and a whole French family in it
It's just the bigger French cousin of the R3-T20-FA-HS.
@@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933 but with an entire family
@@philfree286the French family part very important feature
@@FluufyPvPTM are the Jews hidden under the floorboards stock, or is that a modification?
Hey Spook, I'd like to see you play the Stug III A. It's a really overlooked low tier TD that can work as a brawler with decent armor, good mobility and a quick-reloading point-and click heat dispenser.
I can attest to this. It's very strong vs low caliber weapons when angled, and uses a HEAT shell that can take out a 105 sherman from the front!
I always liked the silly Italian low teirs. Video 42 of asking spookston to play the AML-90
Yea, I enjoyed grinding most of them, they were all pretty good vehicles
I've recently been itching to play low tier after playing a couple hundred games using 6.7 Germany, so I went to use the M4A3 105, M22 and M5A1. Very fun combo in my humble opinion.
I think you should try the leopard 1a5. It has thermals at 9.3 and a laser rangefinder, also the reverse speed is outstanding and the APFSDS it gets is quite good.
oh yeah it is!
Isn't it a pain in the ass at that BR? I would imagine dealing with soviets in that bracket is not fun due to the turms spam
@@webig1805 Its not too bad since DM23 and DM33 takes care of it nicely. Just remember to aim lower plate or driver's port. If all else fails, gun barrel and breech are always there.
@@webig1805 I don't even see turms anymore, from 5 battles there are around 1
@@cyanaquamarinedm23 can pen the UFP at decent angles, aiming for the lower front usually ends up in a fuel tank eating everything so there is no point
The amount of times ive gotten 12 kills in one run with the as-42 is insane, i love this italian shoot and scoot mobile, its mad powerful
You know Spookston is having a good time when he makes the little gnome laugh
Your editing, and gameplay skill is significantly better vs three months ago, just watched the Germany captured tanks video, and you do significantly better recently. Keep improving, and good afternoon.
The Italians are the peak of this trope...their Autocannoni are literally _nothing_ but Trucks with Guns. They are the best at it; almost a dozen different models; everything from 20mm chatterboxes to a literal *4.1 inch Naval Gun.* I'm just glad to see them starting to appear in WT.
will love to see spookston play the Chi Ha Kai, it is a very fun little tank
Watching this right after your Smurfing video truly is the pinnacle of comedy
Laughs in French low tier armor
I find it amusing that it gives you a Crew Replacement... For a 2-man vehicle. Ah, yes. Lemme just replace my crewmate! Oh wait! I lose one, and I insta-die!
Try the Ab43, its basically an upgraded version of this and it helped me get all the way to 4.7 before I finally decided to use a different tank. Then ofc mid tier Italy (5.0-~8.7) is op asf
So the game allows you to drop bombs in a situation like at 6:46, but on multiple occasions it didn't allow me to drop bombs in a low pass because "you cannot drop ordnance while on the ground". Very cool.
this here was the other italian one I wanted to recommend to you, i recently got 15+ kill with it, but you should do the r3 103 (the one with 2 recoiless)
Hearing you say you like trucks with guns on top. i think the 'Lancia 3ro' is also something you should try. it being the literal embodiement of a truck with a gun ontop
Silly goofy Italian truck
I know a useful way of playing this one and its sister: Only take half ammo, then only the racks on one side will be filled, slap some branches and stuff on the opposite side and then use the car's mobility to always position yourself in a way that you're almost fully concealed by bushes while also not exposing your ammo racks to spontaneous combustion
"Was that the same 140 that we killed earlier? He really wanted to seal club"
-- Spookston, after having done the exact same thing
Speaking of the Italian tech tree, surprised to see you haven't covered the AB-43 yet. Underrated ratty vehicle, nimble, APHE with 69mm of pen and enough explosive filler to more often than not one shot Shermans, Panthers, T-34s and the like from the side.
you should make a video on the mbt2000, i heard its very good for its tier. it has the dtc10-125 and has 31 km/h reverse speed, which is good for most chinese tanks
AS 42 and /47 are big fun. I had a game (granted, arcade) with the /47 and i sat in one spot just raining Arties down because i got so many kills to the point where i think i got 1 arty from cool down and the rest were all from kills and i just screened their entrance into A point. All you could hear was constant arty fire
Theres nothing as funny 'nor hilariously satisfying as playing these goofy vehicles. Man I need to play this thing
but thanks for the great videos as always Joob!
"Where did rest of him go?" gone... reduced to atoms
This thing epitomizes "0 defense, all attack"
day 97 : you should try the jagdtiger sometime. it's extremly slow, doesn't have a turret, gets uptiers all the time, and most importantly, you'll have to play with german teams. the very definition of suffering.
(i know he saw this comment, but imma keep at it until the Jagdtiger video is out)
we're almost in the triple digits
the family car is one of the best low tier joy rides you can have in WT. love to see it
It may have been the wrong as42, but I'm happy Spookston liked this one
An ad for the new Furiosa movie played before your video and I thought it was your intro
War thunder needs to model the affects of velocity on armor bc it’s ridiculous that a round from a 120mm gun can shatter on a 5mm skirt when the round had enough velocity to rip through the tank if it was tumbling sideways
I love how it has crew replenishment when I don’t think that’d even work
Fart
ever since you told me to grind italy for the 5.0 leopard this thing has been insane to play
man havent seen your videos in a while i had forgoten how good they were with the memes and comentary a fun time for sure
Spookton: I'm blind and stupid (gets 14 kills in a single match)
Me: Guess I'm also deaf and numb then.
Surprisingly deadly with that thing. Your a legend
I recognize that Fall of The Samurai trailer immediately. Nostalgia!
Me when im in a "I dont think I can pen that" competition and my opponent is spookston
Lancia Ro 100/17 would be very "fun" for you, I am sure. It has all of your favourite characteristics: it is big, it is slow, it has terrible gun traverse, it has zero armour and its shell velocity is very slow. But hey, it atleast it has big boom cannon.
If you ever feel useless, remember that this thing has crew replenishment.
12:04 chefs when they spot a nice cut of beef
the as-42 is one of my favorite italian vehicles (besides the turan iii) and i thought nobody wouldve talked about it
If this thing had 1 more crew member, it would be *perfect*.
The other Italian car with gun is my go to! The 2.0 version of this one.
I say a quick prayer to Gork & Mork and then “Speed is my armor” right into the action.
Some games 12+ kills
God dammit, Spookston. You're going to get me playing the Italians now, just like you did with the Swedish!
This is what I used to grind early italy when I first started playing the game its so good
The nickname on 7:52 implies having intimate contacts with mothers
Happy Spookston video? Wow, that's rare!
Spookston finally isn't being bullied by planes😂
12:48 For a second I thought that was a missile. It looked like ATGM velocity.
I'm so glad after years of CAS, spookston finally found Anti-Air vehicles.
The Italians be out here making the memiest military vehicles to ever exist.
I swear this tank is so goofy, but loads of fun
this baby made the early Italian tree a fun grind
I want to watch a competitive match between experienced players, all using tier 1 vehicles
I think you should play the Cromwell some day. It's a very underrated medium tank imo, since it has some good foward speed, neutral steering and a decent gun.
You should play the R3 T106 FA. And keep up the good work Spookston, your content is amazing.
Total War Shogun 2 reference spotted. Much appreciated Spookston-dono! o7
our guy spook turned into a birb 3:06
2 guys a truck and a dream.
I'm also an avid "truck w/ gun" enjoyer. Although, I think the more technical term is "Chadian Toyota Technical Experience" (I'm 100% serious about that, look up the Toyota War if you don't believe me).
Are they effective? Not always, given if someone so much as sneezes in your general direction you are screwed, your gun depression is usually not great, and your reverse speed is a 50/50 chance of being fantastic or garbage. But is it fun? Hell yeah brother!
10:45 it's because of the solid shot nerf. 20mm guns have a weird thing going on. Either it does nothing even if you have the pen or it kills the tank.
Came out of RB match once with 21 assists, 7 kills, this thing is a beast, until you meet people who actually use their mg's/planes.
It’s a good day when spookston uploads
Is your fire key space bar? That’s unhinged
His AA ability has improved!
the stalker combat music at the end, noice
Everyone who went for the R3 had to go through this.
Car With Gun is my favourite tank gender
man i love the sound effects on your videos
I don't even play this game I just watch your videos because they're fun
I played this thing when the ap shell had 64 pen at 10m and it was even more low tier bully vehicle.
ELC AMX bis is a beast, you would love it
BTV amunition on AS42 can not detonate, when its hit it gets destroid and you lose it but it does not blow up (i konw this from expirience)
This “tank” is the most fun! Me and my friends go into low tier italy and they always laugh when I bring this and the howitzer tank, yet I’m always at the top so I’m always the one laughing
Would love to see some British love with the vickers mk11
Hello Spookston! Amazing video as always! But my main thing; please play a Chieftain not really for any reason I just like it. Thanks!
I hope you do read all of our comments :) I feel like your strike such a perfect balance of entertainment, but also respect for the humans in the stories. I like this genre, and always watch with full respect for those involved
Hey Spookston, you shoukd really play the Kugelbltz, it also is like the ZSU 57, it is real fun! Since it is basically a Pz. IV fighting with cold war tanks (it just has an autocannon that sends CAS to AAUGHHHN mimimi, somewhat…) so yeah! Play Kugelblitz plz
They should just add one of those troop transport trucks, and the guns are just the soldier shooting rifles, and maybe one or two with anti tank ones
Bruh, at the end there it looked like you were at a god damn shooting gallery.
No way Spooky removed the M3 is all you need dawg
Speaking of trucks with guns, play the new French SPAA at 5.3 the TPK 6.41, take an R3 T20's gun, times it by two, and put it on a highly mobile truck chassis :D
Imagine being Bradley in early ww2 ERA, that's it
idea, "spookston goes god mode on enemy team, asked to quit by gaijin" go all out in an OP vehicle and turn the enemy team to dust.
oohhh it even has a dedicated storage space for the pizza
Ah yes, the "press spacebar to Target Destroy" car
shogun 2 fall of the samurai, ah a man of high standards.
We really need a Technical tech tree, just Toyota Hiluxes with all manner of weapons mounted. From M2 Browning & Dshkas, to Recoiless Rifles, to 23mm Autocannons, hell some even mounted helicopter Rocket pods on top.
I got a Hobbit audiobook add during the Gollum bit
spookston you should definitely play the Olifant mk1a because centurions suffer and warthunder is meant to be pain thats why we love it 😂
I'd recommend the russian Zis, either the truck or the half-track. It's basically this, but with a bigger cannon.
The f6f-5 is a grate cas plane for its br. It has 3x 1000lb, 3x tiny tim rockets or 3x 500lb bombs if that is more your style. It is a bully for its br
Oh god yes, I love this thing.
Hey Spookston, you should play any Chinese vehicle with DTB-125 HE Shell. It is probably the strongest normal HE shell in the game with 5.46 Kg TNT equivalent. You are able to overpressure top tier MBTs in the right place. The lowest BR vehicle that has it is ZTZ96 at 9.3 BR (that vehicle is basically a T-72 but usually better). Day 4
This is the definition of glass cannon
