First off, huge thanks to Stickboy24, Hambone001, and Zuit for helping to make this video possible and surviving the onslaught of Mig-23s! There is a lot to like with the F-14 as it is introduced into War Thunder. It is a beautiful model and the attention to detail is fantastic, the big thing that really surprised me right away was the turbine engine sounds and overall sound profile of the aircraft flying. This is by far their best-sounding aircraft in terms of sound design. This is an aircraft that I thought we would never see in the game and was eager to give it a shot. When first hearing the F-14 was coming to War Thunder, my initial untrained thought was it would be terribly unbalanced due to its ability to strike at long range and other factors. The Phoenix Missle in-game sort of worked in my hands (someone who doesn't play a lot of 10.0 Plus Jets) but the game mechanics were a bit lacking in my opinion at times. One of the biggest learning curves was the multiple key bindings required if you do not want to use the Y menu to operate your multiple armaments. Users of the F-4 Phantom and other top-tier jets are used to this issue when using things like the Sparrows and Aim-9s together. We spent hours trying different radar modes, different patterns, and different tactics. We had mild success with it but it was also frustrating a bit at times. The F-14A is not the best aircraft for a classic dogfight and you feel it. It's not awful by any means but you definitely wish you had the re-engined F-14B at times in a foot chase. This is just my Day 1 opinion from about 30 matches and I am sure the devs at Gaijin will continue to develop the Game Mechanics I mentioned. Thanks for watching the video and let us know what you think!
i am super jealous right now Bo, you know that?
It will be interesting to see how this works. Got to admit I was expecting some knock off version of Danger Zone play whenever some play plays the F14 😂
Amazing vid
I think think that ham should look underneath him next time
@@foxtrot2alpha960 By law I think I was at fault though lol
Turns out the song “Danger Zone” was a foreshadowing of Bo’s F-14 piloting skills
In that it was absolutely awesome of course!
Dunno, Ham's seemed more dangerous to me.
Yes
😂
More like Ham's piloting skills but then...that's always been the case. How many times has Ham blurted out "hey watch this" and flown straight into a building or trees or something? We sure the "enemy nation" doesn't have a plant in the squadron xD?
PLAAAAAAAYING....PLAAAAAYING WITH THE BOYS
When are we doing the BV-238 video sir! Why are you ducking my calls! Are you afraid?
I want to witness the return of the luftwaffee pirates bud! Your galleons await!
Do you have 5k likes yet?
@@MilitaryAviationHistory 5100 sir.
@@botimegaming Bo TBLF, and Harries sounds just as chaotic not going to lie.
I think it needs to be pointed out, Bo: Once youve locked the Phoenix missile, you MUST maintain your radar lock if you want it to hit THAT target, otherwise when you drop your lock, it will go semi actie and track the NEAREST plane within its tracking cone, NOT the one you locked. Hence why your missile hit the Mig 23 at 2:50 rather than the Su-22
Isn't that a "mad dog" missile?
Yes
@@lt.lettuce2023 no, mad dog missile is firing a missile without lock at a tatget within 10 miles for amraams and i think 5 for Phoenix, it will go pitbull off the rail and lock into the first thing it seens in a 10 degree angle
@@lt.lettuce2023 Technically it's a "cheap shot" ceasing supporting the missile mid-phase before it is close enough to autonomously guide.
We tried a lot at high Alt with TWS and SRC with on and it still struggled to hit targets. I appreciate the information, I only included those clips because those were the only times the missiles hit anything. Zuit and I spent hours trying to get it to work... and not much dice yesterday. This was my first time flying it and using that weapon system. I plan on revisiting it today on stream and trying to get better with it.
You know how we all love the shenanigans, but let's be real, when Bo pulls a class maneuver and shows you how to do it right (kills afterburner, pops flares for four seconds, then hard G-turns and rolls inside), you realize he's really FUKKING good at this game.
I don't know, man. Putting throttle to 0% so you can turn faster by sacrificing all your speed tells a different story.
He's not really flying it right, though. Not using the afterburner as much as he should, going all the way down to zero throttle to turn tighter but also bleeding all of his speed, poor situational awareness, etc.
However, I'm not going to blame him for it, as his content is not heavily geared towards actual gameplay and more towards humor and shenanigans. If you want a more serious guide/ how-to-fly youtuber for WT, I would recommend Defyn and possibly Beer Thunder.
yeah hes had a lot of practice with flying in general in the game. he just has to learn nuance as it applied to each jet
@@cheesuschrist5017 I broke the habit of afterburning through every turn because the pesky Russian missiles were very good at hitting hits in my experience. Shutting down the afterburning and engine while turning I found kept me alive much more later in the day and actually caused missiles to chase my flares. That was just my day 1 experience though and I was trying a bunch of different stuff to find a better way to survive in the F-14.
@@ollilaine6763 F-14A is not as fast as you may think it is. A couple aircraft in-game can chase it down and kill it. I slammed back on the engines to cut down the heat signature to try and shut down the bonfire that says, hey missile come over here. I was prolly to aggressive with that but we had a very bad day of trying to doge Russian missiles lol. It was my first time flying something like this in WT and I am sure we will get better with it. Thanks for watching the video!
And today’s episode of Bo time gaming, we witness innovative water boarding techniques, Cliff jumping with jump master Ham, magic missiles finding targets we don’t know exist, volleyball for everyone, and finally we meet Lieutenant Buzz kill!
Don’t Touch That dial folks, we’re on the same Bo time, same Bo channel! TomCats ahoy!
Bravo!! HAHAHAHA!
XD Brilliant!!
10s in and TBLF already crashed into each other lol, this will be an amazing video as always.
That wasn’t crashing, that was closed beta footage of testing for the corvair F2Y sea dart
That wasn't crashing, it was "skillfully merging into one"
I'm impressed by how much abuse from teammates the Tomcat can take and still remain airborne.
my favorite quote from bo is "This is the worst squadron ever".
I'm disappointed nobody used the quote, "Is this your idea of fun, Mav?" when they were flying inverted above a squadmate. Aside from that, excellent vid!
not sure they really had the time to come up with quotes while trying to keep themselves in their own planes and out of the others.
hey, I saw you guys in one of my matches yesterday! Great to see ya and love your content!
Thanks for saying hi!
@@botimegaming Same here friend
"Hit the brakes, he'll fly right by." Such a Top gun quote, love the F-14!
It wasn't hard to predict that Bo's callsign would become "Clueless..."
First words, "HAM!" You know something is up.
"I don't know
it hit somethin'
i'm proud of it."
Now there's a positive attitude.
When flying top tier jets it is either that or cry lol
If you encourage the missile, it will more better know where it is and where it isn’t
I love this little ragtag team! There’s no obstacle they can’t overcome… well, maybe except themselves.
Just did a call sign generator for my friends and I got “Hound, Bubba, smurf and chaos. Absolutely 10/10 🤣
I did generator for myself and my cousin & uncle and got Barrel (Myself), Muskey (Cousin) and Uncle (Uncle). Lol
@@SeriouslySirius1066 10/10 🤣
After watching both Top Gun 1 and 2 Im sad to say I don't think I would be playing this plane ever. My grind will take years lol... My only request is that you guys do really low altitude flying in valleys. Great video as always Bo!
Same for me. I'm only at the F6f in the navy air line. :(
that was the f18
@@grafspee569 ?
@@braedynhoward3644 hmm?
@@grafspee569 oh dear, oh no you didn’t
Thought I'd never see the day that TBLF took out a top tier jet. Great to see you guys try out the F-14.
Stick - "I thought you were on the SU!"
Bo - "I don't know, it hit something and I'm proud of it!"
lmao, as you should be! That was amazing xD
Yo! This video was AWESOME! Loved every second of it. Keep the amazing work yall do putting these videos together. ❤
Watching me get killed is kinda funny ngl
Another Great vid Bo. I love the F-14 and had " Danger Zone" Running through my head the whole time lol!
This was an absolutely amazing video. Awesome job guys on getting this content out on patch day! I know it must’ve been insanely hard with all the people playing to get the F-14!
2:47 is what I loved doing in Strike Fighters 2, one of the best video games ever!
Great video today Bo! Lots of fun watching you four blast around in the F-14's.
Seeing you in that F-14 taking off with an F-4 looked awesome!
by far one of the most enjoyable Bo Time Gaming videos yet! Thanks for the content!
Ah the Tomcat, the most anticipated jet in the game so far, always happy to watch some Bo & Co content! Thanks for the video!
Keep up the great work Bo, with all the new content the new vids will be amazing. Also I love seeing fate in the vids recently!
Already loving the video and all the top gun references! Its awsome seeing anything with the tomcat after watching top gun maverick
10:39 would have been a perfects "ima hit the air brake and he is going to fly right by moment"
Oh man this one and all your guy's antics had me cackling. Great work Bo and team.
Bo once again making war thunder seem a lot more fun than in reality XD. Fun plane that made for an awesome video, keep it up!
This video was very good, everyone was in a good mood and the jet was the one most people have been waiting for. 10/10
Hey bo I love your videos I have watched all your videos and I have followed you and supported your channel since your 1st vid keep it up
Thank you so much!
I think you're supposed to stay nose hot after firing the missile. It does have a radar of its own but it still needs your guidance until the terminal phase
Yep
@Hey, I hope you're doing okay. No shit Sherlock
@Hey, I hope you're doing okay. Hoes mad
This vid was epic! You've all made my day so much better!
i loved this video, i pissed myself laughing the whole way through, keep up the amazing work Bo and Co
I always look forward to you vids coming out. They make me laugh. Keep up the good work. I don’t know how your not at 1 million subs yet.
Great Video. All the Top Gun references were halirious. And the Dolphin Hambone became for a round was so funny.
man i miss yalls videos i stopped watching for i think a year because i wanted new videos to watch and i am not disapointed on first video back nice work as always guys
absolutely hilarious video Bo! I loved this video!
You guys are incredible! I'm hoping to run into you in WT, or even better, cover your six.
Need more plane nuzzling in your videos lol. Loved today's video and can't wait to see more from this update
Funniest thing I’ve seen on WT videos
Amazing Video Bo and crew keep up the good work
love watching you fellas play the more modern jets! maybe one day I'll manage to unlock the top-tier jets too, lol
repairing my F-105D and F104A makes me wince at the end of each battle.
of course, I'm not really that good at jet combat in the first place xD
love to see you guys give Naval a shot again one of these days. especially since they've added bigger ships like the Scharnhorst, Kongo, Hood, and Arizona now
honestly the F104A is a pain when stock but after you get performance and the 9Bs it becomes half decent all you need is 2 kills w/o premium and you should make a profit or at least a super small loss
Really good video, I know it was a struggle to get all the footage needed but I'd say the end product is a beauty. Hell of a job boys.
Nice video. I'll probably never get to top tier air in any country, I focus too much on ground combat. BUT, it was fun watching your gang trying out the F14. Makes we almost want to start air combat.
Not sure how the generator got "Grouch" for me, but it did hit the nail on the head.
Yes as soon as the update was coming out I was just waiting for this
YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!
You guys are hilarious! Keep up the good work!
Bo thanks for the wonderful video and hope the guys had a blast.
those were some pretty good kills... i congratulate u bo o7
great video. loved the subtle top gun quotes
"Mav. Tally-2. 5 o'clock low" is also another epic top gun quote
Such a beautfiful Jet, great video guys, thank you very much ;)
Crying with laughter in the first 60 seconds. Great video!
Your callsign reminds me of a short story from my grandpas time in the navy,
My Ganda was a desk jockey on the uss hancock, and met a pilot who stared off into space every now and then, so everyone called him clueless
As always thanks for braving top tier in order to give us great content!
im saving this for tomorrow in class at some point, i cant wait to watch it
Ham "nuzzling" your tomcat is oddly cute, its also the funniest s*** I've ever seen.
Let’s go! I’ve been waiting forever for the Bo Crew to get F14’s!! Great video as always!
Hopefully it was worth the wait :)
An absolute treat for sure, certainly can be my wingman any time
Hope to see more of the Tom cat! Sad about how many games got cut short :(
That friendly that won the round on the snow map happens to be my friend who taught me warthunder, thank you for making his day
love the vid bo!
Time for some volleyball ball
... Don't forget your oil.
Stickboy killing the comedic relief.
I forgot how much i love your videos
Just here to say that I'm really glad I've never had TBLF on my team, because TBLF will help the Red team by eliminating themselves from the battle almost every time.
I really like the skin. just now remembered its the same squadron the F-14D i am building a model kit of rn
just another typical day and the life of the tblf squadron. chaos and screaming with a slight touch of clueless
Absolutely loved this
Great video. The F-14 is really a very pretty plane
Favorite top gun quote is "Hey Cougar, he's got missile lock on us get away from this guy!"
Not even half a minute in and you guys already cost Uncle Sam about 76 million USD. This is gonna be good
I was dying when ham was imbetween your tailfins XD
So good I watched it twice - hilarious
This is an absolutely beautiful video
This video took 'This is why we can't have nice things' to the next level, and Hambone took the 'Danger Zone' to an even higher level.
My favorite top gun quote is
“WERE GOING BALLISTIC”
I think it is safe to say with friends like Hambone who needs enemies? Just kidding! LOL. But seriously though great video, guys! I know top tier Air RB is a pain to make content out of, but you guys did an amazing job and your efforts really paid off. This video was hilarious. Thanks for the laughs, guys! (I also did the callsign generator and got Wapper Jaw...)
Ty bo to you and the others 👍
12:34 BO SERIOUSLY LMAO
Always an amusing sight, watching this brew crew mess around.
And incidentally, I tried out that call-sign generator; I got "Falcon" as my callsign.
I really don't play aircrafts but my love for the F-14 will make me grind for it.. don't really care how long(years) it will take but I will have this fine piece of machinery!
good video and f 14 was good plane back in the day
Oh my god.. I died with the nuzzling, never laughed so hard.
I lost it at the "don't stick your nose between my..." part
The amount of plane to plane contact they managed without exploding is as impressive as any of the kills were
Hambone sniffing bo ass is the funniest thing ive ever seen😂😂😂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Now that we have a 4th Gen. aircraft, what others from the same Gen. could come?
The MiG-25? Or something else.
I love ur vids
Bc of u guys im into war thunder
I just love to see someone play the vehicle as their original design doctrine.
Saw you, Stick, and Zuit on Korea yesterday while playing my MiG-27K
i feel that the tblf tag gives collision damage negation vs other tblf
bo idk if they model it in wt but the pheonix wont keep lock untill the target size sequence has been completed (the time which the f-14s radar guides the aim-54 to the target) once the missile goes PITBULL then you can break away
If Hambone keeps up his antics, he'll find hinself flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog sh!t out of Hong Kong. Incidentally, my call sign is "Oldfart".
"Why you didnt used guns...because Technology" yeah that was the same thing the US Navy said in vietnam and, yeah,we all know how that went
20:48 start of the mating dance of the Tomcat.
I dressed mine up in the experimental paint and bunch of canadian symbols on it turned out great.
I feel like stick just sounds done with them when they tried to cliff jump he just sounded so dead inside to me
So all my friends have callsings now, thanks for showing me this site!
