The fact that they gave the glide bomb to the AA version of the Corsair tells you that it's not meant as a tank buster but rather to take out AAs from a safe distance and provide some ground support...
Me in a plane: hehehehe this is so much fun, now I understand pilots. Me on the ground when I see a plane: literally the bane of my existence, literal hatred
8:06 they should just be called artillery. the game just calls them stationary weapons. P.s the big circle is where your aiming. the little circle is where your ordiance will actually go
That was just the Anti Air gun lmao, it was a stationery weapon, later in the video, Niccaman actually sees the AA being used and says 'oh there's an AA gunner there too!' it was the same thing
From my experience, you can one shot a tank, with the proper momentum. I use the glide bomb directly on target for a one hit, and if you hit the ground just touching the tank, I usually go for 71-83 damage. but you can one shot tanks, I think. The speed of the plane does matter, though, I have seen that a side-drifting bomb does not have as much kinetic energy, but a straight run will hit like a truck. I lreant how to aim without the reticle, now it is going to be a full-on ballistic weapon :'D

Bertrand Salaün Filling weight: 1,000 lb bomb (1,600 lb (727 kg) gross) .. I think maybe what you’re saying could be true but I believe if you have ever killed a tank in a one hit with the bomb the tank must of been already damage because you can’t kill a tank with one hit from the Stuka with its 1,000 lb bomb unless you drop your 4 small bombs first soo most of the time that tank would have to have its tracks damage and would have to have a lil bit of health taken away to be able to kill it in one go with the glide bomb trust me I’ve done this soo many times and I’ve never killed a tank in on go. They already was damage if I have done it in one hit
I still think the 8x rockets are best. They can go head to head with aa guns, can do significant damage to planes after the 6x hmg overheat. And both japanese and american fighters get them. You also dont have to estimate your targets location as much.
But you can snipe any camper with that bomb: go for a speed boost down towards the water, pitch up, and go for the ballistic trajectory. The major problem with the rockets (although I DO love them as well), is the convergence, making you effective at a specific range, but putting you in a possible hotspot as well.
@@bertrandsalaun3721 you can snipe campers with the rockets too...although lately my entire gameplay has been AA hunter and dogfighter so my teams other aircraft can bomb away unhindered. Lower kill counts but more fun
Seam to me the higher rank you are the quicker you can down the other plane , i got downed in 1 burst, so he could take out the whole air force in 3 burst . How is that fair , cant even deploys smoke or pull of a manoeuvre ??
A glide weapon is going to work based on velocity. The big circle is where the bomb would hit if you were full speed. Small one is where the bomb is going to glide to. When you’re slow or yawed they won’t line up. But notice when you’re doing high speed dives they line up.
It had a better blast radio before the patch and was powerful against tank too if well aimed, now blast feels broken, same for it´s strange ways it drifts when dropped. Also the new reticle is kind ugly to look at,
Recently I had a battle throughout the wake island against an enemy pilot with the glide bomb and me on the AA. By the end of the game the duel record was 3-3. All 3 of my deaths were from his glide bomb but at very close range.
It's a play on the Norden bombsight. One reticle was aimed at the target, the other, was the impact point of the bomb load. When the two aiming points converged. The target was going to be hit (theoretically). This is basically the same thing.
In BF2 the commander could drop an attack marker directly onto campers, and then you could aim at the marker with your cannon in a plane from the other side of the map - taking people out well beyond visual range.
For the reticles I’m fairly certain that the large circle is the main reticle but the smaller one indicates which direction and how far the bomb will drift from the big circle
The glide bomb hasn't been fixed for one shot kills on tanks, it still takes 2 hits to kill a tank and the small reticle is the bomb reticle, to get an exact hit you have to line it up, I love the new reticle system it makes it more skillful
I think the bigger gray circle is a flat aiming reticule that assumes the bomb will glide forever while the smaller white one is the actual trajectory, where the bomb will hit. When the 2 line up, it should mean that you're basically too close for the bomb to stop gliding. Remember, after a while, the bomb does not glide anymore and it just falls, like a V1. You could get a lot of range if you drop one from altitude and you will always be more accurate when the bomb hits at a sharper angle compared to a "flat, horizontal glide".
The big circle is where your aiming but your plane isn’t pointed there yet so the little circles is when your plane is pointing in the right direction for where your aiming
I'm thinking the new duel reticle is to take time to be accurate at range by obviously aligning both together. Rather then previously with the 2x500lb bombs for example could be dropped with pinpoint accuracy from very far away.
i've never played this game, yet seeing the bombs aiming circle active while going steadily vertical makes me wonder if dropping the bomb while doing so would hit the target
Nicc, some people use it like a torpedo or normal bomb not like you drop it from kilometer away and hope it hit right on target well you can use it like that but I recommend use it like normal bomb
I think you should go for a most kills with glide bomber ever, on that map, just keep sending them into the cave after you find the right spot to get it in deep into the cave
something like rolling up setting off the glide bomb which drags behind you a lil i notice giving you time to get ahead, ping enemy with a few shots flying over, he thinks hes safe cause you flew over and no bombs dropped, but then surprise! sneaky glide bomb
Well in the first video on the glide bomb that you did I think you had an idea about how it was important not to use the rudder before dropping it. Maybe the two circles has something to do with that. Anyhow the two circles should probably align before drop to make the aim accurate. Doesn't the other bombs also have two circles that align?
FYI they've needed the 2x 500 lb bombs, you can't drop them both at once any more and also aiming is much harder as the planes keep auto pitching up now.
Of course they are, I was killing tanks with it before they added the aiming circles under the plane. You can also drop 2 of them from the P 70 night fighter...
I’ve noticed they added a delay to the bomb drops especially with the pacific planes and the 500lb bombs, before I’d be able to drop both bombs on target with no delay. Now I have to climb higher and lead the first bomb then the second and even then it’s harder to hit both on target.
Nice. Ya should make a video about spotting people in the air- maybe it’s my eye sight but you seem to target the enemy wayyy sooner than when I spot em
pretty interesting. i think maybe you are supposed to send some mavhinegun fire quick to do like 10 damage, most average players arent gonna nove there tank from machine gun fire, then when they start to looktowards the shots they get to see the glide bomb hitting there face for the kill lol
They should make it so you have a first person aim similar to the bottom cannons and it has a very high zoom. Maybe the last specialization can be an even further zoom and you can bomb from above the clouds. Imagine the altitude upgrade with that.
The circle that is fixed is were your shots will got from the machine guns but the moving circle is the spot the glide bomb 💣 is gonna land when your turning
I’m getting this game because of your great videos hope you are doing well -update the game is almost done installing and I can’t wait to learn to fly on another game...
The glide bomb has a white front that holds the explosives and if it hit the side it wil be going tru the thank and if u hit it at the Top it wil kinda bonce of
big facepalm moment XD. Obviously the big circle is the position the plane is trying to achieve whilst the little one is the current position the bomb will land.
Yooo love the content, idk if you have another main job but you gotta upload more!! your vids are super entertaining! And I’ve deff become a way better pilot since watching you
Nic I just started playing War Thunder (bacause damn Dice won't let me drive my T-34 or fly my IL-2) and flying there feels so diferent and so much harder than in BFV. Could you make a War Thunder flying tips/controls video please?
19:32 we were 4 people repairing that tank at all times, sry mate
😂😂 No chance at all
He should of used his 20s to pepper the tank up then drop the bomb. I would of loved to see it go through the cave
Well that’s cheating
.
The fact that they gave the glide bomb to the AA version of the Corsair tells you that it's not meant as a tank buster but rather to take out AAs from a safe distance and provide some ground support...
I use it as both and have great success. More so with the night fighter, it has 2 glide bombs and I 1 shot aa tanks at distance if they don’t move
Nicca with bombs: 10 man kill
Me with bombs: +35 Fortification destroyed

@@senzubeanmedic i know. in real life AA was classified as artillery during the 40's just saying
or a stationary weapon emplacement or firing position
Nicca: jerks the controls when releasing a bomb
Also Nicca: WOT I WAS ON TARGET WTF
EVERYTIME!!!! it was frustrating me X-D
So true
The American Glide Bomber CAN kill a tank............ Provided it is below 61 health 🤷🏻♂️
Aditya Bairathi max it dose it’s 70 damage if the tank is hit from top or back top

I agree. The rockets allow for faster game play and you can really work over tanks and especially AA without getting too close.
Totally agree the 8x rockets are the way to go

It's buffed because of the reticle, but still ineffective. It needs a larger one hit kill radius or general blast radius
One hit kill for infantry at a certain radius maybe like a radius just like the 4k bomb on the mosquito.
It had a better blast radio before the patch and was powerful against tank too if well aimed, now blast feels broken, same for it´s strange ways it drifts when dropped. Also the new reticle is kind ugly to look at,
@@Península_Oculta im with ya, I think it should have its own unique reticle
That was ONE AMAZING INTRO 🔥🔥
Hope you are all safe from the virus!
I thought they added a new plane
The bolder reticule is where the bomb will drop and the lighter one is the place you are aiming
That reticle is used for all the bombs on console so I was confused that it wasn't existent on pc
Recently I had a battle throughout the wake island against an enemy pilot with the glide bomb and me on the AA. By the end of the game the duel record was 3-3. All 3 of my deaths were from his glide bomb but at very close range.

3:24 you can do it in 1st person (i think) but the bomb wasn't reloaded and it was perfectly reloaded when you switched to the 3rd person.
In BF2 the commander could drop an attack marker directly onto campers, and then you could aim at the marker with your cannon in a plane from the other side of the map - taking people out well beyond visual range.

love the edit Nicca this 0:50 is EPIC !! Nice Job !
They don't have the tech to make it better
They don't have the tech to continue supporting a 1½ year old game either
7:18 it’s called a TV missile nic. Great video as always though! 🙂

I really wanna fly planes but I know for a fact that I'm gonna get shot down within a matter of seconds by people like Nicca lol
I think the more faded circle is where your plane is pointing, but the other circle is showing where inertia will actually take the Bomb
I really hope at some point they add the p51 mustang. You cant have ww2 air combat without that airplane.
Well well we’ll your wish has been granted
The big circle is where your aiming but your plane isn’t pointed there yet so the little circles is when your plane is pointing in the right direction for where your aiming
How did u become such a good pilot I play bf4 still and I think I'm good then I watch u and there's no chance in hell

Nic is a nice guy and does cool stuff but he really isn't an amazing pilot in any sense. In BF1 his bomber skills very pretty impressive though
"And apparently now, you need to consider using this glide bomb, which you clearly don't have underneath your plane" 😂😂😂
They should do a POV from the Bombs view like some other games have but you should be able to cancel it .
Dario Haubensak, don’t think the glide bombs had that in ww2

No
It will fucking explode from afar...

Pilots during ww2 using there glidebomb to destroy a tank : dammit only Vehicle hit 62
Thank god they added the Night Fighter which can hold two of these. On its own, it only good for infantry and light vehicles.
First bit blurred circle Shows the half time traveldistance and second smaller non blurred circle Shows the final destination Point.
When you pull up before you see it leave your plane it misses

Nicca, if you're lucky enough, you can kill two tanks with one bomb. I've done it before.
The lager circle is were your target (where it’s gonna land) is going
The circle guides have been added to all the planes with ordinance.
This is why the new US bomber has TWO of these glide bombs
The circle that is fixed is were your shots will got from the machine guns but the moving circle is the spot the glide bomb 💣 is gonna land when your turning
“This is gonna be sexy” 😂😂😂
“Thinks the enemy markers (red) are green” ironic a video game pilot is color blind
Joachim I don’t think you’re understanding... I’m not even gonna try to argue with your logic cuz ur obviously dense as a brick.
Bro the dots were legit red, you toeless fucking cabbage quit your bullshit
This glide bomb feels like mini v1.
Weaker, but more often.
The two circles dictate the angle the bomb will come in I think
I really want to send the bomb into the tunnel on Iwo Jima Star Wars Trench run style now
A few days ago I hit a Corsair with a coastal cannon and it only did 47 damage to it

They said it could not be done
They said it could not kill tanks
They said it was impossible to aim
They were wrong
Now try gliding a bomb inside the cave to get a multi-kill...
I'm pretty sure this was added back in 5.2. Maybe not, but it was added way before 6.2.
Great to see new content from you man! How have you been since the Corona outbreak?
Thanks a lot man, I've been fine. Just stuck at home but its not a big deal tbh as we have games ! Hope you're well too dude
dude the reticle's been here for ages for the pacific
The glide bomb has a white front that holds the explosives and if it hit the side it wil be going tru the thank and if u hit it at the Top it wil kinda bonce of
If one circle is lacking behind that means that is where your bomb will drop
Glide bomb:glides whoop now it goes down
Him saying that 62 was underwhelming is crazy to me as a tank player
You should get some friends and charge with boomsticks on a tank that would be funny
Try dive bombing from a near straight down dive rather than level flight. It’s so much quicker and easier
I think that frag pro shooter is going to become the new raid shadow legends
big facepalm moment XD. Obviously the big circle is the position the plane is trying to achieve whilst the little one is the current position the bomb will land.
I bomb dive with it and release it about 50 feet above the enemy. Direct hits are your best friend
