    This thing was famous for an incedent where one broke the sound barrier flying low in a shallow dive over london and broke a load of windows. Try that in WT and your wings will drop off, but then many of the British aircraft fall apart too early in WT due to Britain's over cautious maximum speed in the pilot handbooks which gaijin take as an absolute maximum.

      @@WadsworthGaming It's been ages since I watched the documentary about it so I'm afraid it'll be light on the details. Basically when finalising testing one created a low level sonic boom over London at midnight, damaging people's property and causing outcry, especially in the press.
      Gloster officially apologized, but it was widely believed that they did it on purpose to prove it could go supersonic, as the project had had a shakey start, with a test pilot being killed, and claims (including from an ex employee who had quit and joined a news paper as an editor) that it couldn't.
      Edit: I can't post links on RUclips, but the pilot was Robert Jeffries if that helps you look up more info.

    Every nation in Update Supersonic: Gets a supersonic aircraft with missiles and unique stats with decent performance
    Gaijin to Britain in Update Supersonic: Yeah, you get a huge fragile brick with 2 afterburners, however, you wont be able to go even transsonic because we said so. Also your energy retention is horrible, and you're bleeding speed in turns like a MiG - 21. Oh, by the way, did I mention that your brand new "supersonic" plane has a 12k repair cost? yeah, take it or leave it.

    The Red Tops do that too! In a typical British fashion they fail where even a R-3S would hit, or they simply self-destruct few sec after launch. The good news is that this plane is rank 6.
    Ill try to use it on this event do to its rank/BR, but based on that in one game i only got 1700 scores for 3 player-kills (with guns) in a rank 6 jet i'm not sure if its wort the effort! Should I try just bombing?

    Having just spaded this, some advice for anyone brave enough to try. Take 2 missiles and 4 guns, as seen on this video the missiles will often pull harder to avoid hitting a target than they do to down one. Better to take 4 cannons to shotgun planes than risk relying on missiles with a kill rate lower than aim9b

    and this Gem is the MiG-21 F-13
    yes low ammo and bad missiles but you get better , lighter Airframe and this plane has so much potential to overRun an F-104A and i did shoot down an F-104A using it and i don't see it in the match very often not even DEFYN made a review on it
    yes Ik J-7II is there but these 2 are a hidden Gem in USSR and China

    • @jojomaster7675
      @jojomaster7675 Год назад

      I don't have the F-13, but I do have the PFM which is fairly similar (it's got a slightly better engine, but is heavier with more drag, the 30mm is replaced by a GSh23 and it gets better radar, but no way to really use it), and it's not that good. Sure, it can work, as long as you keep your speed and some altitude, and go after distracted pilots, but you are very reliant on your team not disentigrating. Because if you're left to fight with no teammates to occupy the enemies, you're kinda screwed. You have no firepower or range in a headon, you're very voulnrable to missiles, and if you turn you're dead. So basically, if an enemy is dedicated enough to killing you, he will do so and there's basically nothing you can do about it.
      And on top of all that, you're flareless at 9.3. So you fall into the black hole which is 10.0/10.3. Meaning that every match you face planes which can kill you by clicking 2 buttons. The worst of those being harriers, which will actually catch you if you fall below mach for even a little bit.

      The early mig-21s are usable, but I wouldn't call them very good, simply because of their reliance on their team and very lackluster armament, which runs out very quickly.

      If you've never played the Javelin then you couldn't possibly understand. Taking even minor cover damage has a very high probability of causing so much drag you literally cannot gain speed. The most egregious case I have seen was after a head-on with a SAAB I had an orange inner wing and a yellow wing tip, in a full nose down dive with after burner on I couldn't get past 250 km/h. I slow fell from 5000m completely unable to do anything because of what could generously be called cosmetic damage.
