I swear they changed the damage of 303’s within the last two updates, cause I remember in late 2023 where I got an insanely high kill rate with the Spitfire mk. I. Cause now it’s back to what it usually was, using most of your ammunition to maybe kill one plane.
Unfortunately this plane has one big weakness...the american teams. I fly 109 and I always want to have the Americans against me, then I am calm, we will win this, I think to myself everytime.
As an American player, this is correct. I climb, look over, just about everyone is dead because they all attack a low bomber. I just try to get at least one dead of the 7 I'm facing
American teams are definitely a tad bit brain damaged. The amount of times I had P-51s trying to turn fight me while playing the Ki-61-I is outrageous. Definitely made the grind a lot easier
@CecilioSprayetti I do that sometimes if everything is a complete mess at the beginning (usually is). Then it's just to have fun and to see what I can do.
@@CecilioSprayetti Yes, yesterday a P-51 did vertical loops against my Ki-44, didn't stand a chance. I fear the Americans least of all, with the exception of the XP-50, and P-36 :D
7:26 the more energy the p51 has, the better it turns (until it starts compressing or your pilot blacks out) It’s a solid turner at 250 and above, keep in a slight dive when doing a 1 circle to maintain the speed, and never do any ‘flat’ maneuvers unless the opponent is damaged or you have much more energy than them Lessons learnt from flying the p51 in sim
Performance wise it is very good, but the armament is very, VERY weak IMO. 4x .50s only deals heavy damage if you manage to get a decent burst on the enemy, cause if you don't, you rely on the right rounds hitting the right components (unlike 20mms at the same BR that can snap wings off enemies with very small bursts).
As a sim player, I never liked em Unlike other razorbacks like the 109, it’s nearly impossible to see backwards at all It’s very understandable as to why pilots wanted the D variant’s bubble canopy after playing in first person for any amount of time
The Razorbacks are still workable, f6f and the early corsairs are the absolute worst offenders. legitimately 0 visibility backwards. I never play them without a wingman, tired of getting snuck up on.
@@Birdman369 trick is to always stay above 5000 meters and/or 350 mph As a P-51D player, only times I’ve ever been ‘jumped’ probably where when I was climbing initially or climbing after diving on someone and their buddies showed up
The C-10 is stronk. It's like they took a P-51D and said "hey, what if we made this thing light enough to actually climb/accelerate and turn, but it somehow is also a bit faster? Now that you can actually use your insanely high speed in a more useful/offensive manner, we're going to *lower the BR so you can club seals with it*" Thing rocks and woe to 109 wehraboos who discover that this thing entering a merge at 600kph will get on their six faster than they expected. Go ahead and stallfight me, this huge prop still produces thrust at low IAS, unlike your three-bladed pinwheel. 4 .50cals is plenty when you have the napalm laser belts
Where is the British P51-B Gaijin?? Yet despite the real history its STILL not in the British Tech Tree despite the 17 or so Squadrons across the Common Wealth, the first combat seen etc etc.. Britain fielded hundreds just of the B/C models yet countries that had a dozen post war surplus get it. Same main tech tree neglect as the P40/M4 variants/M5A1/B24/B25/M16/M3gmc75/lack of Portee 25lber/6lb/2lb/20mm/40mm and dozens of other vehicles Gaijin hates Britain.
Interesting that you use the Ground Targets belt on this as the Tracers put anything into flames almost instantly. What am I missing? Love the channel btw. Love it.
I don't get why the br has to go up and down from 3.7 ,up to 4.7, and down to 2.7, this seems a little ridiculous, why don't we battle at same br or 0.3 higher and lower , if quantity of players is a problem I don't mind waiting longer for rooms to form in realistic air battles.
As a fellow play station player, yeah definitely. I wish I had a PC cuz it is a bit easier to do more difficult maneuvers and keep an eye on the enemy.
I have been sonehow demolishing everybody in the french mkIV Firefly. Sure the thing can't climb if it's life depended on it but the 4 Hispanos and turnrate more than make up for that.
I think you should try the Hurricane Mk I/L any day. It has a very good turn time, quite decent speed and climb rate and very good burst mass. It also has one great skin in-game too.
Way over Br'd !! Compare WT's early 109's of same vintage ... whole BR lower despite both entering service at same time and entering production in 1936!!! Also the Gaijin flight model is trash, very poor rudder and aileron authority. Unlike the Russian mixed materials planes the Hurricane catches fire and takes damage way too easily when it was renown by its pilots for its toughness and getting home despite damage that would end most comparative fighter of its time.
not going to lie I keep getting this one and the cannon stang mixed up so I when I think HAH! 50 cals and my shit get blown up I am like... Ohhhhhhh it's a Cannon Stang lol
I find it odd that the P-51 seems to perform so poorly in War Thunder when it (the D variant specifically) was probably the single best fighter aircraft of the European theatre. If it weren't for the graft and corruption at the War Department the Allies would have fielded them several years earlier too!
Try 288 like fighter, its the strongest 6.0 fighter I have K/D 5 on it, u can see that on my channel. American fighter have no chance vs 288 in dogfight, this bomber scares Spit LF IX when starts dueling, this "weak" bomber can fighting with two, three enemies in one time and kill them all)
Can you pls make a video on the F4U-1A Corsair. In one of my first matches i got 6 kills and 3 assists with it and i just think its a beast at its BR. (love your vids)
Out of curiosity, which are the other two planes in the top three of this BR, I’m looking for something to fly. Also, stat cards are completely useless, which is very annoying. Love the videos!
Ki-44-II hei (China)/ Ki-44-II (Japan), really good aircraft but main drawback will be your top speed and amount of guns but when they connect they hit pretty hard and also high alt performance is not that good. :D
I know they're basically the same..but I prefer the Chinese P51C 11 NT that I got from the battle pass for free or the Japanese one (tho the JP one i. I love US planes so much because I like extremely fast bois but the teams are absolutely atrocious (4 BnZ plane players going turn fighting and getting immediately sent to the hangar every 2-3 minutes)
Lol i was just playing this plane yesterday i was sleeping on ! good timing for the video. the game i did yesterday was great too with 8 player destoyed and something like 26k rp without any booster
P-63A-5 has better weapon config and climb rate....at 3.3. Better in every way for your playstyle of showing up to the battle 5 minutes late and boom/zoom rinse repeat P-51 Hispano has better weapon config and turn rate, making it better for the style you wanted to pretend the 51C is good at (low altitude turnfight) IDK how you think the worst American fighter at 3.7 is the best overall
I prefer the spitfire because of the 20mm canons and also the way it climbs its perfect for me its very fast and also has good manoeuvrability because of it being British idk what mk it is but its good for its br i don't like the American's planes they don't have good manoeuvrability they have good guns and they are fast but they don't have good manoeuvrability that is why i don't like them but looks good might give it a try also love the videos they always make me laugh
The p51c has nothing that beats it at 3.7 the d5 at 4.0 is worse thsn the c in every way except guns. but the la5fn is quite funny because it gets the yak3us engine at 3.7 it just compresses way too easily. Fun fact the p39 at 2.7can beat the p51c in mpst ways its broken af
Okay, so discussion time... in your opinion what is the best 3.7 fighter in the game and why? 👀Join my discord here: discord.com/invite/TqrH5FSK5X
The ki at that br obviously
This plane was fine at 4.0, preferred it over the bf109f. Def the best 3.7
The Cannon-Stang.
Hey webe in future after ur battle can you tell us the rewards u got like silver
Iions and research points
@@ushikiii what fighter?
That's my problem with the early spits; it had you dead to rights if the 303s weren't utter shite XD

Jap ones sic
that 88 explosion was satisfiying but yeah i like this P-51
Since the last major update, the .50 cals sound so naff, but when you go to spectate it sounds like it used to. Play the chinese 3.7 Ki-44-II Hei.
7:26 the more energy the p51 has, the better it turns (until it starts compressing or your pilot blacks out)
It’s a solid turner at 250 and above, keep in a slight dive when doing a 1 circle to maintain the speed, and never do any ‘flat’ maneuvers unless the opponent is damaged or you have much more energy than them
Lessons learnt from flying the p51 in sim
You can run WEP most the match with 100% prop, oil 60% water 80% then bump to 70%oil & 90% water when your temp goes up.
good MEC usage is the best way to close distance with interstellar 109's, underrated climb rate on the p-51s imo
Performance wise it is very good, but the armament is very, VERY weak IMO. 4x .50s only deals heavy damage if you manage to get a decent burst on the enemy, cause if you don't, you rely on the right rounds hitting the right components (unlike 20mms at the same BR that can snap wings off enemies with very small bursts).
I suppose that's where the 51D comes along and makes it a complete aircraft!
Razorback/Birdcage canopy mustangs are underrated
I'd include the A-36 into that list.
@@Leonidae yes

Proven and approved. Laser belt seal-club stronk.

Gaijin hates britain
The brits called the P-51B the Mustang Mk3 btw
Great video! Just earned another sub!
I love this plane and the d30 got 2000+ kills cumulatively between the two. Also have that custom skin you got on, it's nice. British p 51 ftw.
Oh sorry, wrong skin. Lol, I was replying to the thumbnail and I didn't see. I got a British skin.
masterclass move right there. 7:00
Interesting that you use the Ground Targets belt on this as the Tracers put anything into flames almost instantly. What am I missing? Love the channel btw. Love it.
@PeekCandy I'm old and have been playing for 13 years, Ground belts used to be the best but its just old habits.
As a British player, it’s definitely the Spitfire
With a quick turn time and excellent guns on some of them you can destroy stuff like the P51 easily
The F6C is the 51C, but with lower empty weight and 10 minutes less fuel.
It’s a monster. Absolute dominance.
you should use the tracer ammo! it’s full incendiary so you basically have a flamethrower
This plane used to be a dog tag reward only.from the dog tag challenge.
Stopping kids from saying first
😂 Understandable
First
I don't get why the br has to go up and down from 3.7 ,up to 4.7, and down to 2.7, this seems a little ridiculous, why don't we battle at same br or 0.3 higher and lower , if quantity of players is a problem I don't mind waiting longer for rooms to form in realistic air battles.
Man i play on ps5 and i wish i could do the tricks you do, its just rough trying it without vision on the enemy. Epert flying though.
As a fellow play station player, yeah definitely. I wish I had a PC cuz it is a bit easier to do more difficult maneuvers and keep an eye on the enemy.
We got the top 5 of: Spitfire mk. IX, P-51C, Bf 109, Yak 3e, Ki-61 and the all mighty Po-2m (aka best prop(
I have been sonehow demolishing everybody in the french mkIV Firefly. Sure the thing can't climb if it's life depended on it but the 4 Hispanos and turnrate more than make up for that.
I wish I could laugh at war thunder 24/7😆😭😭
Better to play for fun then to be frustrated

@@CmoreChapHurricane Mk I/L is only 2.3, not much to complain about I don't think mate...
I think my K/D is like 40:1 in RB with the French one. This thing is insane.
This guy would be a good villain he already has the laugh down
Bro can dogfight in a shackleton but acts like he may lose a 1v1 against another mustang 😂
The statcard is not true on turn time mostly. I have discovered the early jet Yaks and those turn in 4 seconds or something.
I was confused why he was using ground belts instead of the tracer belts
not going to lie I keep getting this one and the cannon stang mixed up so I when I think HAH! 50 cals and my shit get blown up I am like... Ohhhhhhh it's a Cannon Stang lol
In my opinion the mustang (p51) British fighter is the best 3.7 plus the 20 millimeter is O.P
It's weaker with an Alison engine though sadly, still a good plane but no where near the performance of the 51C
Hmmm that p51 reversal was smexy.
I wish I could edit my comments but I'm watching this video on the browser on my phone.
My favourite, at the mo, is the ki 44 at 3.7.
The only better plane at this BR that i can think of is the La-5FN. Stupid fast, great energy management, and amazing guns.
I use the Mustang C at 6.7 ground because its so good.. And because I have no other options since grinding planes is shit compared to tanks.
Do a cockpit view only video with the spitfire
Most under rated 3.7: Ki-61 otsu. Best P-51C - French, as it can start with 21mins fuel instead of 31 mins for the rest.
I find it odd that the P-51 seems to perform so poorly in War Thunder when it (the D variant specifically) was probably the single best fighter aircraft of the European theatre.

Mhmmmmmmmmm
The best in 3.7 is the B-239, one on one the P-51 is no match on the turns.

How is he doing the quick rolls at 17:01? Can’t do that with the mustang so I must be missing something? A change of setting maybe?
