I'm pretty sure it's mainly resolution and YT compression that loses a lot of details. Though even sitting next to Phly I'd have a hard time spotting and identifying the enemy planes.
My great uncle was an RAF heavy repairs engineer on Vulcans and then worked for the Saudi airforce on those lightnings. Spent most of his time home brewing ‘Jeddah gin’ with his mates. No doubt it significantly improved Anglo-Saudi relations!
Day 219: Phly, you should play the Hawk III Chinese fighter; 900lbs of bombs in a biplane at 1.0 that you can dogfight in after dropping. Totally balanced.
When it gets fixed, select SNEB as secondary, Select ripple quantity to 8 or 16. It will fire a shotgun spread from each of the launchers at once. Good effect on target
I grew up in Binbrook, where the last Lightning squadron was based. They used to do the thing where they'd take off and go vertical to 70,000ft; it's one of only two aircraft (the other being Concorde) that literally makes the ground shake. You could reach down and feel the ground vibrating.
I grew up in South Africa where the last flying examples are kept, not sure how airworthy they are anymore, I was driving by cape town international the other day and watched a lightning take off and go vertical, truly a beautiful aircraft and I hope I get to see them flying again, it really makes me sad knowing they’re just sitting there unattended.
Teabagging a helicopter makes me think of the roadkill I got in Air Superiority on Battlefield 4. Apparently if you bounce a Chinese version of the Su-57 off the canopy of a F-35 transitioning to hover mode you crush the F-35 pilot.
Oh man, there’s so much weird physics and collisions with the F-35 in that game. Even now as it’s reached its final form, using VTOL in the F-35 could cause unknown Eldridge horrors.
I love how this is one of those planes that LOOKS like you edited a bunch of weapons onto, but in reality is the actual configuration of the aircraft, lol.
The Saudis already bought Lightnings. They thought "why not use them for ground attack instead of buying dedicated strike aircraft" This is the result.
That Lightning is chunky looking already with the over/under engines, but I'm seeing an even chunkier 4 engine tail in my head. I think I might break out the 3D programs.
I knew the lightning could have external fuel tanks on the topside of the wing. But never heard of rockets being added to it, the Saudis being chad as usual
Engineers: so how many rocket pods do you want to hang under your jet RAF PILOT:YES Royal Saudi Air Force : Under? Do you realize that the plane has two sides? Yes to over as well?
Whenever Phy takes CAS: Flies uninterrupted for DAYS right over the whole map including the enemy base. When I take CAS: Hug the deck, high speed, countermeasures, fly perpendicular to AA positions .... BOOM shot down.
English electric lightning....got upto a U2 cruising height....caught Concorde...one of the fastest accelerating planes of the cold war...theres a youtube video of it taking off, going into a vertical climb from the end of the runway.
@@swordsman1137 he literally says it's difficult though bruh... And yeah speed can help determine, but if it's hard it's hard anyways even if you do know your speed.
To me personally it's the single ugliest plane to ever exist, the only acceptable-looking part of it is its rudder Probably just a personal taste difference though, since I'm not into Number 2 either (a good pick but just not my type, I prefer Number 4).
But it's an amazing aircraft. Not just it's look. But also the engineering. A man owns one near where I live. He let me sit in it (Two Seater Varient).
After watching your videos I always want to play war thunder again. I start the game, get obliterated by the sweatiest tryhards in the entire universe and close the game until the next video is uploaded 😂😂😂
Heya Phly, phor my phipht vehicle request, I ask that you take out the Phrench AMX-50 Surbaissé, but there is a catch! You must *only* use HE. It should be an easy challenge, seeing as there is a 6 second reload, and the HE penetrates 39 Millimeters of Armour. Good luck, and have Phun! (Day 3)
Hello phly i lived my childhood in an airbase in saudi arabia (prince sultan airbase) and there was a model of this aircraft everytime i ask my dad about it he says son thats the pain in the ass right there for maintenance, so moral of the story is that this aircraft is not effective in the saudi desert and heat so they stopped using them and the F-5’s and got replaced with F-15 strike eagle i was waiting for warthunder when i started to play the game and they added the lightning i was just waiting for them to add this model in specific because indeed it was real, it was too much wait until i am surprised that they added it finally lol Love your vids man keep up the good work love from saudi 💚💚
As a Saudi myself. You are very welcome for how we spent our money : ) This is my favorite Jet of all time now, I knew it was gonna get added the moment I saw it IRL in Riyadh. I am really glad we got our country in warthunder. And seeing you play it made me love it more!
Aw man, gotta say it again. So extremely happy you are back again. I discovered you while you where in an hiatus and Im so happy to see new content rn! EDIT: ...after binging the content already uploaded :D
IM IN THE VIDEO!!, this was from last night. I had a feeling some something being a bit too familiar when I saw the Tunisia game, and the camo you where using on the Rooikat. I was Cryofrost playing the Italian tanks on the Enemy team.
I still remember the first time I saw this plane in a magazine when I was a kid and I asked my dad why this plane so weird and my dad said just “pregnant”🤣

I noticed that hud bug phying the Ju 87 at 6.7…..not a fun time.
Bro you commented on the Rooikat engine - they changed like every tank engine sound in the game with this update it's great
Don't force them into sports, if they want to do another hobby or career path as long as it is reasonable let them
thanks phly!
I really thought the rockets over the wing were edited
gaijin be making the clickbait thumbnails for him
Btuh....same ngl
Gaijin inspired by phly thumbnail lmao
Same
I was just going to comment this lol
Phly being out there identifying aircraft 5km away makes me realize how blind I truly am
Everytime I hear him say "enemy enemy enemy!" This is me 🤏🏽👓👴🏽
He got that 8k monitor
I'm pretty sure it's mainly resolution and YT compression that loses a lot of details.
Though even sitting next to Phly I'd have a hard time spotting and identifying the enemy planes.
My identification process is deciding if it’s a spec of dust on my tv or an airplane
Thats just the 4k 144fps G-Sync with max anti aliasing and HDR working its magic. Also some skill, of course.

Not surprising that you outclimbed the Sabre, the Lightning was the only aircraft of the time able to intercept a U-2 at altitude.
The Lightning could exceed Mach 1 in a vertical climb...

"Someone who has too much money and no idea what they're doing" - incidentally, this also describes the Gulf countries pretty well.
There is also a person who has no money and does not know what to do 🫠
Yeah, this definitely describes us.
The only way to improve that would be to put rocket pods under and over the wings that fire at the same time.
Fire them all at once and go full Itano Circus on someone
how to blow ur self up in 5 easy steps
You gotta have some kind of death wish to use an EE Lightning for a CAS platform. That plane is a pure interceptor, through and through.
The HUD bug can be fixed by verifying the game files in the launcher's options btw!
Thanks, i was wondering how it even happened
Who looked at that and was like “yeah thats cool, thats exactly what will make us win”
The Saudis already bought Lightnings. They thought "why not use them for ground attack instead of buying dedicated strike aircraft"
This is the result.

Why tho, marders are basically the same, but much faster

Phly: who would buy this?
Gaijin: oh you would be suprised
“Hey boss, we finnished building the jet and gave it some rockets. But we have some budget left, what should we do?” “More rockets”
More like: "Sir, we dont have room under the wing for more rocket pods because it overlaps with landing gear!"

At 5:20 when he says "this strategy doesnt really work at top tier" i legit thought he said "this tragedy" talking about the plane lmao
I refuse to believe this thing didn't have a ballistic computer. Just look at the number of rockets it has.
Yeah, and it’s weird that it doesn’t have RWR, seems like it should have that too
Maybe the logic was if you spam enough rockets, you don't need a computer :D

How did the Saudi's ever deal with the Lightning - easy - we just employ a load of ex RAF guys from the UK to maintain them.
Read my comment i explained a lot about your question hahahaha
I feel like with nearly 200 rockets on board the penetration shouldn't matter, just absolutely saturate an area, ones gonna hit
Always knew Banks had the makings of a varsity athlete.
I have seen the british G6 several times absolutely destroying aircraft and ruling the sky - please try using it as a AA
It’s cursed with no editing. Ladies and Gentlemen, we have reached a new realm of cursed.
"Dont get made fun at school"
My friends not knowing who tf PhlyDaily is:
Kuwait immediately tried to sell their lightings to Egypt and Egypt said naw. And Saudi Arabia got F-5Es later which did ground attack better.
bro could've gone with 4 rocket pods over the wings, 2 1000lb bombs that drop 1 at a time and 2 red top missiles and he went all rockets
Don't ever think about a climbing contest with an english electric lightning :)
Finally i see Phly use non CCIP rockets to CAS, turns out it is hard, not just me sucks ahahah
I think Phly problem is he can't see his speed
@@swordsman1137 he literally says it's difficult though bruh... And yeah speed can help determine, but if it's hard it's hard anyways even if you do know your speed.
This plane looks like something I would make in ksp with the weapons mod as a joke
Me: see's tiny black spec 3000km + away on the ground. Phly, "it didn't really look like that, it looked a little different."
I actually really love it’s design. I wish there were more aircraft with engine configurations like this
To me personally it's the single ugliest plane to ever exist, the only acceptable-looking part of it is its rudder
