The ZERO Family / War Thunder

- In 1937 the brand new A5M fighter was just entering service... but the top brass of the Japanese Navy was already in search for the aircraft that was going to come after the A5M. They wanted a fighter, equipped with cannons, capable of reaching the speed of 500 kph at 4,000 metres… and with all the maneuverability of the previous model. In order to meet those goals, Mitsubishi engineers went out of their way to make their new plane as light as possible, using a top-secret aluminium alloy to build it - and giving up on armor, any armor in fact. The first pre-production aircraft took to the skies on the 1st of April, 1939. That was the start of the story of the A6M... also known as “Zero”.

“Have you ever flown a Zero yourself?”
I took that too seriously
Me: why you asking
Him: you came back
Hello. I am a 116 year old Japanese pilot that flew many A6M aeroplanes during the war. I mostly flew in arcade and have survived many kamikaze runs despite my aircraft exploding. I also flew over Britain and bombed 20 anti-air vehicles in one flight, with my magically reappearing bomb. Having flown a Zero myself, I find it to be the best plane ever. I have never flown a different plane.
But you can only fly once

Tis a good movie
I’m glad to hear you like it, I for one just because I have to face it 90 percent of the time at Soviet 5.0 absolutely abhor it and it’s ki 84 brethren and a7m brethren, because whenever the fight starts there’s three of them on my tail instantly and they climb as if they were angels rising above after succeeding in their deeds.

Ah yes
zero came from type 0 naval carrier fighter, the actual designation for the A6M series.
It's just a joke
The wind rising.
@@pljotrpotr9382 well then how about another one? Ever wonder why it goes from mod 11 -> mod 21 -> mod 32 -> mod 22 etc? Because mod 11 isn't mod eleven. It stands for mod 1-1. The first number stands for the airframe revision and the second stands for the engine revision.
So for the mod 32 zero, its the 3rd version of the airframe (1st ver. Was standard zero, 2nd ver. Added folding wingtips, bigger tanks and droptanks upping the range to a ludicous 1000nm - almost P-51D levels of range. 3rd ver. was wing mods, clipped, bigger ammo bays, less fuel etc.), and 2nd iteration of the engine (new sakae 21 over the old sakae 12).

Maneuverable, agile, king of the dog fight. It's one of my favorite plane ever. If you really wanna become an ace, this bad boy will definitely provide it for you.
Got too many kills with the A6M2 - I agree it's ace-worthy
Someone: flicks pebble at zero
Zero: burst into flames
More like getting sniped with just a bullet I got Sniped than being burst into flames or have my wings fall of.
The very same aluminum alloy that made the Zero (and a number of other Japanese planes) so light yet relatively sturdy in construction is also what makes it so difficult to preserve their planes, as they're highly susceptible to corrosion, or at least that's what I've been told by a guy I know who'd worked on restoring an A6M5.
As for the Zero in the game, I think I'm especially partial to the A6M3 Model 32 (the clipped-wing variant). That was my go-to fighter for golden battle wagers for a long time.
I don’t think aluminum can corrode?
0:03 pilot: im out of here lol
The zero is by far my favorite aircraft to fly in war thunder
Ok weeb
Definitely a nice plane to fly, I really like it
I really do like agile plane turning the plane that have low turning speed is a pain in the arse.
The zero Chan u mean
Japan wanting to go faster: hmmm. lets make it lighter.
USA wanting to go faster: MoAr PoWeR!!
Making an aircraft lighter doesn't make it faster, although it improves acceleration since it has less inertia. Reducing drag and increasing engine power and the way to go to improve top speed. The Japanese wanted planes that could keep speed over opponents in a dogfight whilst the Americans countered this by making planes that stayed much faster out of a dogfight.
Making something lighter definitely make it faster because its mean increasing power to weight ratio
loL,totally right
@@anonymousstout4759 Wrong. Power to weight ratio itself has no effect on top speed. Decreasing weight only marginally increases top speed because of the lowered lift-induced drag. But this effect is really insignificant compared to the effect of increasing power and decreasing parasitic drag (and it's only really applicable to low indicated airspeeds, such as high altitude or if your plane is really slow to begin with). Weight itself has very little effect on straight-line top speed for most combat scenarios.
The only way in which being lighter helps the speed of an aircraft is with Newton's first law of motion, that being inertia, it will gain speed more quickly. An aircraft's top speed is reached when drag forces equal the propelling forces produced by the engine, to increase the top speed you must either reduce the aerodynamic profile(reduce drag) and/or increase the power of the engine(s). So the weight of an aircraft has no impact on top speed.
Making an aircraft more lightweight can also hurt it's speed performance in that it will decelerate faster as well. Heavy aircraft like the P-47 Thunderbolt have high inertia meaning that they lose speed less quickly when above their top speed(for the angle of climb/dive). But zeroes lose speed much faster after a dive which makes it unviable for them to dive in and make a getaway in a straight line or zoom climb.
The A6M2-N is pretty good for its BR when u just rip the floaties off
i recall some dude in my match said "why are those plane dragging their balls on the airfield"
That is a strategy I guess
It’s just become the 3.3 version of the A6M2 just no landing gear
Yeah but I’m pretty sure the fuel is stored in the floats lol
@@basementdustproductions1069 It’s like an extra fuel tank stored in the floats so you just drop down to whatever would be stored in the wings

what americans see: god dammit it's kamikazes... it's okinawa all over again!!

“Top secret aluminum alloy”

Lmao but for real?
Huh I just finished a 5-hour long documentary on the zero and now this pops up. Another 5 minutes won't hurt I guess.
thank you for the continuation of the Legends series... really some awesome work you did there
Ps. Zero would be a very fitting Plane for a Legends video
@@Oberst_Jager they did one a week ago
I just flew the A6M5 Ko variant of the zero a few days ago and oh lord I loved it, the fire power, the maneuverability I immediately watched the other video you guys made on how to use the zero and I got into an head on with it then I drew a square in my sights then all the bullets flew past then while still inside of the head on I started to use my rudder to spin circles around the P-38 and then I went into a vertical left turn then he made a right turn and it put him right into my sights. I fired and bam he was a fire ball. So fun, if you haven't I recommend the zero to someone that can master it.
Zero is one of my favorite airplanes of all time, what a wonderful machine
I absolutely love the Zero. Perfect plane it ain't but such a pleasure to fly.
I love this plane, it`s by far one of the best in the game, the only 2 problems that I can see with it are the weak high altitude engine and the repair cost.... I really hope you will make a Legends video on it
When you accidentally fight zero: damm i misse... whoah that was quick *and back in hangar*
the numeric designation model (11, 21, 22, 32, 52, 53, 63) was read as two separate numbers because it meant "airframe and engine combination".
model 11 ("model one one") meant airframe 1, sakae 12 engine (engine 1). this was the variant that flew in china, and fun fact its prototype flew with a two bladed propeller.
model two one was a model one one with folding wingtips.
model three two had the folding tips removed and had a new sakae 21 motor.
model two two is a three two with folding wingtips. this is the A6M3 mod. 32 and is one of the most beautiful aircraft ever made.
the five twos are the late war models. five two introduced the directed exhaust stacks on the motor, belt fed 20s, armor and self sealing fuel tanks, extra 13mm machine guns, and bomb racks.
model six two and six three were fighter-bombers.
and the last one is the model six four, with a mitsubishi kinsei motor.
First time I flew a zero I felt like an acrobat, like I could dance and ended up taking first place while stock in both rb and ab. Words cannot describe how I could contort my zero around in a mere seconds.
One of my Fav fighters. I love the A6M3 version more. Hope we see more zero variants maybe even A6M8?
I started this tech tree today so it's funny the video came out today. I love them. Could never do well with boom and zoom, and I much prefer the turn fighting.
have been waiting for this video ngl
The zero is underrated if you use it right it’s extremely good
Hey, what do you do when the entire enemy team huddles into a ball of aerodynamic death ? Like, I can't even get into a proper dogfight or light chase without getting beamed and turned into a burning paper plane. I just got my line up of A6M3's and I wanna go nuts on the enemy but before I can even get a chance I look behind me or above and realize there's 2 to 4 different fighters heading towards me. And if they're P-40+ its GG cuz those dudes will snipe yo ass if you ain't looking...
Well~~Zero is the first plane that I ever fall in love to. It’s agile, fast and deadly for its Battle Rate, it’s so awesome that I couldn’t but to fully master it. But before that, I ran into the Bf-109 to try some different types of techniques. But after that, I was very unadaptable to the brain new type of play style. Than when I decided to comeback to Zero, it was just like a sweet home for me. Until now, Zero is still my favorite plane. Both game and reality.
'been waiting for this, very nice
Loved his giggle after he said the zero gave up all of its armor for all its agileness lol
always loved the zero, proves that speed is not always everything when used correctly, and armor or no armor, planes will always go down if it gets enough hits
I was wating for a Zero legend video
you forgot that multiple variants of the zero get unguided air to air rockets

@@snowykaze I know right!! The movie was a masterpiece. I watched it here on RUclips itself a couple of years ago. *For others reading my comment* If you're reading this and haven't watched it, I just can't recommend you enough.
I LOVE flying as the Zero.
It's satisfying having a P-51, Bf-109, Spitfire, and Yak-9 think I'm an easy target only for them not to realize that they've encountered a true Sky Samurai that can turn them into roaring balls of flame in less than 30 seconds
i swear to god, i am a regular IJNAF and USAAF enjoyer but after watching the movie ,,The wind rises” i couldn’t look at the A6M zero without overcoming emotional feelings and shedding tears
And there's another sub-variant of the A6M5 that is not in the game (that I hope will be added): the A6M5c "hei". That third sub-variant had *3* heavy machine guns installed (13.2mm caliber; one in each wing & one in fuselage, ditching the other 7.7mm)
It also had increased armored glass thickness of 55mm, thicker wing skin for increased dive speed *&* self-sealing fuel tanks.
Best reference for the ZERO is the book "ZERO" edited by Martin Caiden but authored by the man who designed it and oversaw it's production AND a High Ranking Japanese Air Staff officer who commanded ZERO squadrons in the field.
This book falls right smack in the middle of a whole genre of Histories "NOT-Written-By-The-Winners". There are a lot more of them than most people would believe.
The ZERO did become a weaker plane over time in The Pacific. But it's main downfall lay it two areas absolutely irrelevant to War Thunder.
Pilot Training, and Production.
While the narrator is quite correct that the ZERO dominated The Pacific Skies from Jan 1940 in China through 1942 and into 1943 as well in many places. The Imperial Japanese Navy never had more than 450 of them. Fewer Zeros than the RAF had fighters defending Great Britain in the summer of 1940. But Japanese production, overall, was still largely based on Feudal Japanese customs . It was a problem never overcome, thus it became impossible to create enough production to do anything more than replace losses. They could never build up larger numbers of the Zero.
There was an even larger problem than that. Pilot Training. As Early as 1939 the Imperial Japanese Navy saw the need for a Pilot Training program fare more vast than what they had. Their training in China 1937, with the advent of the A5M, type 96 Claude, was superb, but it took to train a pilot just to the level of "new guy" in the squadron. It took almost 6 months of combat to properly "season" that "new guy" into a "combat pilot".
During 1940 and 41 the IJN worked desperately to build that training program up. But they failed. Part of the failure was that the Japanese ARMY controlled the government. The Army higher ups, all the way to Gen TOJO himself viewed aviation as a mere adjunct to land forces and actually hindered the program to train pilots. There were other reasons as well, but go read that book to get the full picture.
The ZERO dominated the skies from Jan 40, through to Jan 43 at least. But those three years took a very heavy toll on This one of the biggest reasons the battles of The Coral Sea and Midway were so significant. Japan lost hundreds of well seasoned and well trained combat aviators, not just "shot down" not really many of those at all. Rather it was "search and rescue" that failed. An entire compliment of aircraft and pilots of one Aircraft Carrier were lost after their ship was sunk and they had to ditch in the sea near another one. Rescue efforts failed to recover over half of them.
This happened at Midway as well. With the three carriers sunk on the first day there was no place for those airplanes in the air, which was almost all of the ZEROs, to land. They ditched and many if not most were never recovered. Many bomber and torpedo plane aircrew were lost because they were still readying for takeoff on the decks.
More than anything else it was the lack of properly trained Combat Pilots that doomed the ZERO. A Good pilot in one could still lay waste as one did on IWO JIMA much later in the war, even against overwhelming odds against the F6F. In that fight he got two, dragged the rest into the flak over IWO. Two more were downed by the flak. He landed, and his ground crew were spooked by him.
There were no bullet holes in his airplane. This is the story of the Japanese Ace Saburo Sakai, who survived the war, including his years in CHINA pre Pearl Harbor, with 62 confirmed kills. Confirmed by his own hand, he photographed them all with a 35mm camera he kept for the purpose.
War Thunder does not include any scenarios wherein the true qualities of the ZERO are ever used. Yes it was an awesome dogfighter. But Dogfighting is a "dead man's game". What gave the ZERO dominance were it's other qualities. Better Climb. It was faster than any of it's enemies except in level flight with the Spit V and the later P-40s, but their advantage was very very small, often wiped out by really poor maintenance. But the real killer advantage was There were no fighters in the world with a 6 hour endurance in those years except the P-38, and there just were not a lot of those until late 43 and 44.
So most of the ZERO's virtues do not come into play in War Thunder at all. Have fun.
I am currently grinding the research tree to my A6M2 type 00, carrier fighter.
I played some WT last night and I got the A5M4 and I am currently researching the A6M2-N, God I love this game!!!
buddy just wait until late tier 3
Fav fighter of all time!
Can’t wait till the 109 family video.
Got all Zeros except the last in tech tree. If I have to describe Zero by one word it would be a serpent. Between it's my favorite fighter.
i love the zero. it is my favourite plane in WW2 i have like 10 different models of it.
What I like about this game is that no vehicle is game-breaking and can counter everyone else. It's a balance that can help a br 1.0 shoot down a br 10.0
I tend to like the base a6m3 with the clipped wings. Its a good balance of ammo speed and maneuverability (the a6m2 mod 11 is good but sometimes I have trouble catching up to someone or what usually happens I run out of ammo) and battle rating. But that's just me and I havent had time to unlock the a6m5 either so I may find a better experience still
Hi Gaijin, i was just wondering about Something: When me and my brother are dueling, if one of us dies, a glitch can occur where we can't spawn in before the bar at the top of the screen empties. So i was wondering if you could give the option to disable the bar at the top of the screen for custom battles, that would mean that capture points would be irrelevent but if someone wants a simple tank, ship or aircraft duel, it could make it much more simple. I'd love to hear back from you about this. I know this is a core gameplay machanic but i trust Gaijin to know what to do.
this
So all you need to do is increase player number to 4 and hit "include bots". This means that there'll always be at least one aircraft on either team, so long as you don't kill the bots. I actually had the exact same problem before I figured this out.
That won't work, the bots will just kill each other and take 30 seconds to respawn, and i prefer a duel, not a 2v2. But i thank you for your opinion.
Make the match a ground battle instead and spawn in as many tank bots as possible. You two can duke it out in the skies while the tanks just kinda derp around. It takes a long time for all of them on one team to die. It’s not ideal but it’s a workaround.
@@pranavarvind4281 Well, I still get some problems when me and a buddy are testing what silly things we can do in GRB. The bots will (most of the time) just crash their aircraft into the ground. It's not very usefull... But it's still the only way to achieve fun in custom battles with a buddy.

The legend of the zero
Perfect
Love these planes. ❤️
Gaijin, there are _a lot_ of Japanese aircraft in WT that have illogically high BR for their performance/weapons in relation to their contemporaries from other nations. Like how in the world can you issue the A6M5 a 4.7 BR for AB and 4.3 BR for RB when the F6F-5 is issued a 3.0 BR for AB and 3.7 BR for RB? And that's just _one_ example. PLEASE review and adjust the BR where appropriate. 🙏
i have most of the tree open teir 4 and down. and played with zero planes. (and sometimes even ramming if im too damaged.) they are a fun series of plane, but anything with good aim can wipe them out.
I can tell you how they perform on arcade: they turn extremely well, they climb well too. The low ammo count for the cannons isn't a problem because of the aerial reload. They can't take too much damage (just as you would expect), however, if you get hit , but not shoot down, you usually can usually still fly quite well (perhaps I was just lucky, but damaged zeros fly better then damaged spitfires). Never do head-on against anything with cannons - even if you'll get the kill, he'll probably get you too. Attacking bombers might be tricky, because their defensive fire can kill yous pilot or set you on fire. Dog-fighting in a group might also get you killed fast. Your best option is to hunt down lone fighters (or any plane without defensive weapons) as you can usually out-turn most planes.
Ah, the Zero, the "Very deadly in close quarter battle, but why the heck are you that close in the first place".
Oh, it turns

The Zero was potent in big dogfights. Its upgrade to 13mm nose machine guns and improved 20mm cannon did short work of more robust US /Allied Fighters. Practically all the missions documented with information from both sides. The win loss ratio were near 1 to 1. Sometimes the Allies/US were more successful sometimes the Japanese. Thre wer a good number of Zeros still in the Japanese inventory at the end of the hostilities.
Complete the family, A6M7 and A6M8 is long overdue

The zero is one of my favorite places in war thunder. With extreme focus and strategy it's an amazing deadly fighter. That said, when 50 Cal's get buffed it's not fun because you can get set on fire by stray bullets.
I just need to work on my shot placement, trigger finger, and awareness. Once I get these 3 last specifics down I'll become a god...
A zero is invincible in one on one combats, but vulnerable in mixed battles. Which is a painful lesson learnt by myself.
The modern Mitsubishi F-2 fighter has the name Viper Zero as a reference to the F-16 and of course the A6M family. Just an interesting tid bit.
Keep the good content rolling.Maby a light tanks vs armored cars?
The zeroes are amazing to fly you can easily get on your opponent's tail due to it's high maneuverability and is quite unshakable I often have to break off then come back so I can get my guns on target The most remarkable thing of the zero is it's high energy retention you can do any maneuver and still have energy to do more things
Stall fighting 😂
As a long-time users of Reisen, i'll give a note to you guys
Do NOT uses Reisen for head-on engagement, even more against those who are good at it (especially US planes that has many .50 cals (with/without 20 mm))
Quick suggestion so could you’s introduce a interception game mode. for example you have player controlled b 17 bombers with a set path and the occasional flak round exploding at the altitude of the bombers causing a fragment effect and if a direct hit occurs it can tear off a wing and is equal to the flak 88mm damage and then you get given a bf 109 f 4 and fw 190 for Germany while being outnumbered 2:1 and japan would be given a fighter and intercepter and everyone has the same bf 109 and fw 190 so no outperforming and the b17 aren’t ai controlled gunners and have to be manually aimed by the player and theirs also a small fleet of p 51s and p 47 to escort the bombers and if the bombers release their payload the games over and if over 50% of the bombers are taken down the intercepters win so yeah that would be fun and so that’s a suggestion it would be plenty of fun so if this comes true cheers from Australia
Cool
the zeros are all fun to fly, maybe as an air rb main the a6m2 N doesn't get the love it deserves from me though.
Jiro Horikoshi was a genius
Its a shame the ki series of the IJA does not get any recognition and must live in the shadows of the Zero.
Shoots at bomber without getting set on fire "Its a fixed fight I say"
legends of the zero
There is a movie about the guy who made the zero. The Wind rises is a great movie.
I'm a relatively new player, just started playing in March and I love the Zero line. I had no idea their BRs used to be that much lower. A6M3 was 3.7? A6M5 was 4.3?! Now they're both 4.0 and 5.0 respectively. These are awesome aircraft but they're way too over-tiered at their current BRs. I wish Gaijin would bring them back down.
Fully agree, the raises are due to sad big 3 lads not being able to BnZ for free
@@veritusahriman9720 All they had to do was not turn with them but I guess that's too much to process for the average American, German, and Russian main lol
yes
I love it so much when I decide to fly my premium zero
