The British FV721 Fox is an armored car designed for reconnaissance, and Gaijin added it to War Thunder in the most recent update. It is only armed with the RARDEN autocannon, but it is so fast it can dictate any engagement. The APDS is also surprisingly good. It might just be the epitome of a rat tank.

The Fox Is Incredibly Balanced 
Игры
Happy Friday :)
I think the Fox would be good at 7.3, 7.0 just seems a little too low
Admittedly not as hilarious as the STRF9040B being at 8.3 when it released :)
Attempt #49: Avenge from CAS and play the Shturm-S as a SAM
You should try playing the M42 Duster as an Anti-Tank platform, maybe you can get revenge on CAS as well
It's going up to 8.0, knowing Gaijins hardon for British BR shafting
Happy Friday to you too Spookston :)
The British have been saving up all those reverse gears and used them all in the Fox.
Alvis must of stole them all.
of course its Alvis lol, Alvis carry hard when it comes to british ground vehicles that are fast@@davidty2006
@@davidty2006*must have
Centurion has -14, and it's pretty alright
Obvs only played low tier Britain, other tier has some of the best reverse
Gotta love how 30mm Sabot is more damaging than 120mm Sabot (cough cough Conqueror)
I mostly agree the conqueror does decent enough but 105mm pure pain
Just the fact the 30mm on that at current is better than most British sabot rounds hurts me a lil. All that suffering of constant shell shatters. Aaaa
@@holmanjagLeo 1 upper plate shatters all GB apds for some reason
on the bright side, return of the 🅱ESH
@@keech100 the conqueror has less post pen than the L7. A lot less.
Conqueror: uses a 6kg+ slug and deals no damage
Fox: haha 300g APDS annihilates entire turret crew with 1 shot
For some reason APHE or any frag ammo do disproportionate damage
See the comparison between the 40mm swedish bofors *AA* gun and the 2pdr *dedicated AT gun*
For some reason the bofors behaves like a 50mm APHE even if it fires incendiary frags
@@svidentkyrponos7530 swedish bofors SAP has 1.8x the filler of the british 40mm APHE, and also has 1.3x the filler of the german 50mm.
if you want to really see weirdly behaving APHE, just play with any italian 47mm gun tanks. despite the APHE only being 47mm with only 30g, it does more damage than the US 75mm APHE
@@o-hogameplay185
WTF 🫠
>Loads some APHE because they are strong
>Didn't use it once
absolutely, rarden apse is so fun and stealthy, always my go to round cos rather fire a non-tracer round to swap to apds than fire a apds-t one to swap to stealthy bois.
so much fun to side snipe leos and chinese/russian cancer mobiles at 8.0-10.0 while others cant even see where your rounds came from.

gaijin failing at making a balanced vehicle for the 1421th time:
They don't want to balance them at first. People will spend eagle's to unlock them so they can abuse them before they get fixed.
Britain finally has one strong ground vehicle, for now
1421st
My response: 50cal is a thing
@MaliciousGrim05 feels like it's more then one
AML 90: You have taken everything from me!
Fox: I don't even know you
All hail the RAT king Spookston!
You can bring one of your own AND the fox in a a lineup
The Wolf?
Spookston can you play the Swedish Bandkanon because it s realy good at anti cas and anti tank please.
He's not a rat king judging from the furry porn he commisioned on his deleted fur affinity account he's a dog
@@kilianschoenauer1184he already did. Like almost a year ago
Damn this thing can probably launch up some real ratty position.

Where are the videos robert
10:02 “Meet the Sniper” moment
Lol I quote this every time I play WT
It’s very situational, like against howitzers hiding, also learning how to use it against aircraft because it has no tracer, but when you have that situation it’s good to have it.
@@Puffin_777 it one shot panthers
@@Jason-jb1vs Yes, and it one shots leopards, and it one shots other vehicles too, but its first strike utility is less compared to the APDS, and it can be finicky on slopes, for example I struggled against the Wiesel despite being a light vehicle because of its 60 degree sloped front armour, which APDS cares much less about.
@@Puffin_777 well it can basically instantly change round types, it’s just all around a great vehicle
@@Jason-jb1vs Yes, it is, I just won’t because as Spookston demonstrates it’s good enough for two shooting things and the APHE’s unreliability is not worth it unless you’re sure it will go through and you have the time to decide that.
"i think his mate saw me" *round flies by* "yes yes he did" 10:00

Why do you do this to me Spookston. Why.
Just wish it was faster to actually be ratty
Unarmored hot dog with OP missiles... i love it.
The Rat-20 is the sad unloved stepchild of the British tree. It also lives in a weird bermuda triangle of complaints where people that fight you cry about it having ATGMs at 6.7 and British mains cry about the giant, slow school bus mobility, school bus armor, and the turret being essentially useless except for aircraft and open tops.
the ratel platform is just cancer for the user
Because ratel is complete trash
10:01 "I think his mate saw me... YES, yes he did."
"the first time i've been impressed by a British vehicle right ouf of the bat"

@buscadiamantes1232 I know you're trying to make a joke but that was a stretch. The expression is "right off the bat" not "out of."
But it can come in a bat
the damage increase against ammo racks in the new patch makes every autocannon even more deadly , good
Does it affect all rounds? One shot a Maus with 165mm hesh and was very surprised the ammo went off
@@danpurcell404 all kinetic and chemical based rounds received this change of damage , wait until a war thunder partner makes a video about it pretty soon for more details

Gaijin on their way to finally add fun vehicles to the British tree after I get to 10.3
The vickers are amazing.
Did you ever play 6.7 cents. that was fun
Just wait for the CVR(T) and CVR(W) vehicles to come and the multiple variants of the warrior and ajax
Hell i remember the mk.3 at 6.3. Great times indeed@@user-qy6yx8nt6m
Last night my team almost got flanked by a fox, puma, and a wiesel. The swarm of them will not relent. Also I think the m2a2 would be cool to see
Why? The m2a2 is just a worse m3. Same bradley but with worse armor.

"I think his mate saw me... YES YES HE DID!"
Spook, with the new update you aren't forced to J out to nuke like before, you can spawn it just like in AB, the icon is visible at 12:31
Attempt 27: requesting Spookston to play one of the "Alternate" Top Tier tanks:
M48 Super
AMX 40
The Brits make the weirdest little light tanks.
I'd love to see a video of spookston playing with a complete German 9.3 lineup
It is nice to see good old Spookston play a tank that he likes and enjoys for a change, it being a british tank is the icing on the cake too
"i think i'll just take out his gunner that'll make it easy" As Spookston calmly destroys the jagdtiger mid sentence
6:38 "Yeah I have a feeling this is probably gonna be moved up in BR" Please no, the british tech tree needs this win
It’s already at a bad br for lineups, throwing it up to 7.3 mins puts it in the 7.7 lineup and why would you use the Fox over the Eland anyway
I'd rather have a vasectomy than fire 90mm HEATFS, The eland is one of the saddest vehicles in the game, it's a crime that there's 3 variants of that trash @@ZBEASTG
@UseMePat
Literally a vasectomy.
@@ZBEASTGbecause heat
10:00 "Does he see me?" -Spookston
bro almost had a famous last words moment
10:02
"I think this mate saw me... Yes, yes he did!"
The 30mm autocannon is even worse when you remember that it uses 3-round clips.
13:17 for optimal damage, nukes explode above the surface, often by a mile for large nukes
And BECAUSE it's a FUN british vehicle it's goin to 8.3 and getting it's pen nerfed
Here we see the species of gremlin called Spookston in one of its natural habitats disguised as an armored vehicle.
14:40, I didn't know that Spookston is a fan of Mark Felton.
lol
10:02 reminds me of the TF2 meet the sniper
Why couldn't this exist when I was suffering through Britain as my first tech tree
The Gremlins with Guns are my absolute favorite class of vehicles, and the Concept 3, and the Ratel line were the brightest spots in my time with the Brits
This little monster would have been the strongest source of motivation for me to get through the 6.0 grind, the Eland 90 was too far off at 7.7 for me to feel any hope while getting trashed in the 6's
Just look at that little creature
I love it
Finally, a new British light which has gun depression and doesn't give me depression
what if warrior, but good
I really don't get all the hate for the warrior. Sure it doesnt have the fastest firing cannon, and no stabiliser (which isnt a huge issue given the guns otherwise great handling) but as shown in this vid, it hits like a truck. The upgraded armour package lets it survive most HEAT and autocannon rounds fired at it, its reasonably fast, has excellent thermals and the missiles are good with their only downside being a 2km range. Its definitely a rough tank before getting the APDS and thermals, but once spaded its an absolute monster.
8.3 Britain is probably my favourite lineup in the game, and the warrior plays a big part in that.
The warrior is fine, the only issue is the lack of stabilizer at that br
@@Minigoat_92missiles are also very slow
That story telling at 8:16 is just beautiful, a single plane flying over, the next frame, only it's wing crashing down like a leaf in the wind...
5:29 “Get out of my house!!” -Spookston 2024
Take a shot whenever Spookston says "dog" or "dawg"
You know what’s incredibly balanced?, the ct-cv 105hp
10:43 lovely hitbox rock
14:35 The collab we didn't know we needed 😂
Babe, wake up, Spookston light tank video
“An entire Lowe’s gardening section up there” bro I got these from Home Depot
10:00 - “I think this mate saw me, YES YES HE DID”
2:13 dang the halo pistol sound is so fitting
Indeed very balanced with the 10.0 ammo the M3A3 Bradley has.
>Brings APHE
>Doesn't use APHE
>that sure is spookston
ive never predicted something so accurate, the fact spookston chose this gremlin over anything else to use for the first time 🗿
I love how Gaijin’s response to bush “decorations” is to make them destructible, as if the problem wasn’t that we couldn’t see the tank in the ghillie suit in the first place.
The reason the fox is so good is it’s got the engine from a Jaaaaagg
Poweeeeeeeer
"im getting bored im gonna rush" sounds like me in any BMP and Tiger
8:35 spookston rolls a NAT 20
1:06 War Thunder: Talladega Edition
Oh by the way.
The AMX M4 is probably the best french tank at 6.7.
The 90mm gun is very good, it has surprisingly decent armor and despite appearances it's pretty fast. Turret has -10 degree gun depression and the reaload is pretty quick. It's like the french tier 4 experience but without the paper armor and without facing stabilized tanks with APFSDS.
Highly recomended
If we do ever get the Coventry or the Rhino armored cars in the game, that would be one heck of a fun time.
This is the most fun I've seen you have in a long time. I'd like to see you play this thing once every few months or so.
At 12:33 I first noticed a nuke alert on the bottom next to the replace crew member slot. So I think that is cool that u can see how much u get a nuke without checking your vehicle lineup
Oh and the engine sound is straight out of HL2 buggy
That interaction with the Maus gave me Scout from Tf2 vibes
Spookston bringing APHE and HE just to forget that he has it
Squadded with another Fox and AML90. Happened into a game with another squad of Foxes.
The entire game was just us zooming around the middle of the map likes it's Blood Gulch with the warthogs in the Halo CE days.
Damn I'm finally early to the party for once, I've been watching your content for ~6 months now and you've constantly made videos that I honestly love, you're even the one that got me into War Thunder (At 8.0 Sweden rn) and it's been quite fun. Thank you Spookston, for making these videos.
Fighting the mouse like "I'm gonna headbutt ya I'm gonna headbutt ya. Bonk!"
i am always so shocked by how passive these matches look in comparison to when i play and my team immediatly get spawn trapped
i died laughing hearing the round scream "BROKEEEEEEEEEN-" as it slammed into a family of 4
Glad to see spookston actually having fun for once
And everyone is suffer xD
You should play something with HESH again, I heard it's much better now after the last update
Love your content btw!
Your vids always make my day great and I started playing war thunder more with friends and now I understand the nightmare of CAS. Was in my M22 and had a 2k pound bomb land right next to me which lead to a funny yet perfectly cut scream. lmao
When you said that your tank was so low res I was like, I’m in a plane, everything is low res for me
@9:10, the reason you "lagged" is due to gaijin's poor terrain and object destruction mechanic. for you, there was no cobblestone wall there. for the client, there was. so the client registered it and acted like you ran through it, but for you it was invisible, already destroyed. I don't know why this happens, I'm not technical enough for that. I have this happen very often with trees.
spookston: plays the rattiest tank in the game, immobilising then killing half the enemy team
*Get's CAS'd*
Spookston: Why is CAS coming after ME???

30th attempt to ask spook to play the t34-85(d5t)
The European canadian : its unbalanced

This is my first time viewing this channel and I'm in paradise hearing MF command & conquer: generals/zero hour music.
life's been kinda rough for me lately but spookston never fails to make me laugh, so thanks man
What does the fox say?
Bam bam bam
Speeeed - Jeremy Clarkson driving this car
That opening is the best video on RUclips :))
This vehicle needs a BR increase, at least up to 7.7.
The English must stop complaining, the nation in the worst situation is Italy.
and then it would be horrible, if it get uptiered its useless, literally everyone else has better light tanks, the fox cannot do anything in a 7.7 match let alone an 8.7
The Fox is the embodiment of the TF2 scout lmao
That Lowe's joke warmed my Midwest heart.
10:48 help me step-tank I’m stuck!
Okay, I asked many times to play the warrior, but this is good enough. Thank you.
Thank you Spoopy, very cool!
You missed a chance to play the "rev up the buggatti" sound at 1:10
You bullying the maus made my entire day 😂
you play the fox so good. everyone i see play it drives straight to watever and gets clapped
The Fox has the same penetration as the Swedish APDS round.
The C&C Generals soundtrack in background is beautiful❤️
