Hey defyn!! I just wanna let you know I really enjoy your videos and they’re helping me get through these massive blackouts after Hurricane Ian!! thanks for another awesome upload
@@xavier4519 yeah with just air targets on the 20 mils and no vim load the ad-4 can climb like crazy. I’ve gotten to 5k meters and have shot down quite a few Ta-152s
man that 6 kills game felt like an arcade match haha ! with the crash head-on being the cherry on the top. Great video as always! One this I haven't seen mentioned in this video is that this plane has, at least the french one, an air brake that can provide extra turning capabilities at "high" speeds. Extremely situational and I never used it more than a few exceptional times since loosing more speed in a vehicle that is as slow as this one is not always a good idea, but it saved me a few high speed engagements.
When I first started playing the game, the French SB2C was hilarious to fly as a fighter XDXD I used it as an attacker hunter and more dedicated fighter planes would dogfight you. They'd turn fight and you'd kill them in a few turns. An absolute fun plane to fly.
This was my go-to plane to reseach Tiers II, III and IV in France, loved to see people in fighters rage in chat after being shot down by this plane. Kinda the same applies to the AD series.
The AD-4 is my favorite attacker plane in the game but if you know what you're doing, you can dogfight dedicated fighter planes. IF they severally fuck up that is lol
Yesterday I engaged the helldiver with my 109 F-2 and I was very unpleasantly surprised. I avoided the head on and started turning for him, but ouch! suddenly I had to deal with a real dogfight. Now i know, i won't underestimate this plane anymore.
This is my go to aircraft when my battle task is ground targets with a bomber and sometimes when hunting attackers. It was also excellent as a head on bomber killer back in the days when BV 238 spam was a thing.
This bomber is pretty dang good with them gun pods. It is a dangerous plane to face. Also for a bomber, this thing can turn damn good.... Plus if you get them kill bomber missions this would be a candidate for a plane to use.
That thing is my nemesis on the Do-335, sometimes I'm above it and because that shit has such low stall speed it's tricky to energy trap the fucker. Sometimes I'm below it and it becomes even more of a pain in the ass to fight, it turns better than me and it is heavy as fuck wich means it'll caught up to me in a dive, and because I'm not a fun of stalling myself at the start of a match when everyone's climbing I usually try to run away and gradually climb to make him dump his speed so I can get an advantage.
im sure you know this, but if you cut the throtle at the apex of the loop youd have hit all them reversals first manouver conserving energy in the longrun. Big fan, keep it up
for some reason this plane doesnt rip wings off if you keep it's flaps dropped in 'combat' mode Also got my first crew aces with this plane. It's amazing
I finally got to your personal discount, got the T69-II. Yeah, no decal yet. Well, for the next time. Amazing what you can do in a bomber. Although, last time I played the SBC2 was the french one and I got 2-3 kills, and I'm not good.
5:15 ah, that looks like me the first time I tried to play War Thunder with joystick controls. That and the, time I ripped my wings off doing it. Yeah. On the one hand joystick controls give you complete control over the airframe. On the other hand, that means you can do some dumb things with that control and no one is going to stop you.
Haaaa yes another french enjoyer who gets curb stomped by the br compression. Don't worry my friend we are in the same boat fighting all aspects without any flares and getting our sh*t rocked by better gamers
Hey DEFYN . Ar u gona try the ju87 D5 ? Wit gunpods 20 mm and 7.7 mm . I know is not the best but meiby u can hav fun . Do what u want im not hir to tel u wat u sold do .( bad english )
You could try to fly out the MB157 it's like the french 190 but worst in performance if I'm not mistaken and you get zero gun time so your accuracy has to be on point
Hey Defyn, great vid as always but could you make a vid on the G91 R/4? Or at least tell me your opinion about it, kinda want to buy it to use as a grinder.
Hey defyn, just wanted you to know that I love your videos and they really help me improve as a playerr. Aside from it, I know this is out of topic of this video, but do you have any recomendation for a plane to grind the tier 7 from france? I tried the mirage 3c, but i just couldn't do much with it.
@@dakotahondalock5621 Because it most likely wasn't an intentional nerf... I hope. Rather just a buggy historical fix. The M3/T31 got their explosive amounts and type fixed I suppose according to historical values, however with this fix the gun got absolute shit for some reason (idk maybe the explosive type is bugged, but idk exactly what explosive types do other than be a multiplier for TNTe). It's now similar in shrapnel to the late US AF's 20mm HE or like a defa/aden/akan's HE: aka literally kinda 0, which I hope are also bugs really but they haven't been fixed in years... so I fear this nerfed M3 is to stay for a while even if it's a "bug", really quite sad.
In your opinion, what would you fly to grind out rank VI and VII French air currently? I got the Jaguar E over the tt one simply because I didn't want to pay the SL for the Jaguar. I hadn't flown a Jaguar and wasn't quite sure what to expect. I don't hate the jet, but its also not great. In your opinion, what would be the jet to fly there? I am excluding the Milan.
@@spray916 Have periodic flares for these situations, you have 250 of them. Diving on an A-10 and a Su-25 was hidden nearby? The flares are already on. 10.3 planes with flares are great against these attackers.
I am always dumbfounded by pilots who think just because they can out turn me that they don't need altitude. Spitfires and Zero's just letting me climb without being harassed and then sitting at 400m doing absolutely nothing.
I have never has game like You...My games looks like that: my team dies ASAP and i fight alone against 3-5 planes...and trying to learn...but my learning curve is flat...
the doof might be busy, the latest videos are from the last time Gaijin changed the sounds to these amazing long distance explosions but horribly weak up close
its an outstanding plane. dont take the gun pods flight performance is leagues better. the 20s are good enough they hit like 30mm but with good velocity. people think rotund ground pounder not anm2 chika.
I don't get the issue of your "almost done" decal ...is it a running joke of a sort? It's like a logo, it can be constructed in minutes. You make it sound like it's a skyscraper.
Got to love that AI gunner completely ignoring the plane 20 meters away from him.
Gaijoob really gotta update the ai gunners that have been in the game since beta lol
I think they have a .5km range when maxed out, in short they are useless
Day 18 of asking for you to fly the f9f cougar again

One off the few aircraft that works way batter if you don't fly it as intended, one of the best "heavy fighters" in War Thunder
It's a dive bomber it flys like a dive bomber
Kinda wrong lol, SBD and SB2U also is a good fighter
This thing catches me off guard every time. I just never expect it to have such an insanely small turn radius.
Can't wait to use the skills from this video on the Po-2
DEFYNitely a good vid on this plane.
Most players flying this, just die instantly at the first engagement.
2:00 I love how you said that he's going for a reversal.
Bro probably just thought that you can't kill him, since he can't see you
smigga hi

Also defyn: clubs everyone in a bomber.
This. I wish I could fly a meta plane this succesful let alone this thing.

5:14 teach me that trick PLZzzzzzz.... Lmfao You ok there DEFYN sounded like you were a lil sick in a part there fighting the P51 and Yak9 ..... U👌💆

This little thing is fun, air spawn, and it has that thing where you can just point the nose wherever because it’s so stable.
Mah boy in the back just there for a steady paycheck 😂
When you are so bored of annihilating people with fighters that you jump into the closest bomber and proceed to doing the same...
I like how it's just a similar way of flying as some early Japanese planes. OOOOO.. the B7A2 might make for a funny video
Great information, incredible flying 👍
This bomber is pretty dang good with them gun pods. It is a dangerous plane to face. Also for a bomber, this thing can turn damn good.... Plus if you get them kill bomber missions this would be a candidate for a plane to use.
"This A6M will 100% catch me"
Words we never thought we'd ever say
this god among aircraft has carried me through so many events
The American helldivers are so good I flew the second one for a few months straight. More hackusations in that time than any other lmao
This plane is the best for grinding events or just stress free playing. Just turn your brain off, headon everything and rack up 3+ kills per game easy
That thing is my nemesis on the Do-335, sometimes I'm above it and because that shit has such low stall speed it's tricky to energy trap the fucker.

It may have a low stall speed but once it gets there it is almost impossible for it to get up to speed again.
@Bilbo Fappins yea got my ass handed to me by that thing cause i didnt think much of it and got sloppy
one thing for sure is i'll use that discount code once you release that decal
Time traveler says his greetings
totally amazing. great vid
im sure you know this, but if you cut the throtle at the apex of the loop youd have hit all them reversals first manouver conserving energy in the longrun. Big fan, keep it up
5:14 The ultimate form of BM
finally my favourite plane in the game. got my first hackusation in this beauty.
i got first ace with this bird i will never forget it ..
i just played it yesterday for the first time and i love it xd

Can you do a review of the Etendard? It’s actually pretty decent, insane climb rate, although at 9.0 the matchmaker can be very problematic
Haaaa yes another french enjoyer who gets curb stomped by the br compression. Don't worry my friend we are in the same boat fighting all aspects without any flares and getting our sh*t rocked by better gamers
Do you consider making video on SM92? I think a lot of people dont understand how good it is
Defyn literally almost throwing up upon mentioning the p51d5 as it’s just kinda shit
Are there any notable differences between the french and American ones besides the matchmaker
Nah same plane
@@DEFYN that was quick
just started using this yesterday with stealth and gunpods and holy hell
u should play the ju-87 D-5 with mg pods it's so much fun and op asf i am sure u will have fun with it and nice vid as always.
Hey DEFYN . Ar u gona try the ju87 D5 ? Wit gunpods 20 mm and 7.7 mm . I know is not the best but meiby u can hav fun . Do what u want im not hir to tel u wat u sold do .( bad english )
I was in this game! I was surprised when the sb2c did so well of course it was you
I've killed so many people in that thing, usually inexperience against them that gets them killed turns great but once that energy is gone it's done.
Great video man, is there any chance you could one on the spitfire mk vc trop, 3.7 rank 3?
can anyone tell me why people dont know how to energie fight anymore
Hey defyn, can you fly the f 104A?
5:13 red tails ?
hi,I love your videos, hope you can cover my favorite plane Tu-4 sometime :)
Please review the Yak-15P. It seems to retain energy well, but not fast top end.

would love to se you do a vid like this in the stuka i enjoy turning the tables on people with it when they think they are getting a free bomber kill

Or my weird favourite the Tempest MkV
What is your graphics configuration? Your game is very beautiful
Can you play come su25 in tankbattel
Can you revisit the Javelin? Is it better than the sea vixen ?
annoyed defyn gets double chat privelege but i get chat spam if i dont wait five minutes in between every message -_-
Ever occured to you that this wasn't recorded the day it was posted :b
Well... its a bomber... so... /'Merican State Farm commercial meme.

500m is the perfect setting for me just so it's actually possible to shoot someone close to me.
