5:23 The Ayit had boosters because Israeli A-4s often had to scramble extremely quickly due to mass Arab suprise attacks. Also, Ayit hunting Su-7s over the Sinai is surprisingly accurate
also since you know... It was supposed to be a navy plane, that had to take off from an aircraft carrier, so rocket boosters probably helped a lot with that
@@jackdiedtoday_ A-4 is American though. Israeli just reporpoused the boosters for their own use. But their main use was for them was to help taking off from aircraft carriers. Thats all
Love the A4n, it really whips everything down. Back when there was no custom loadout it was limited to 2 Aim-9Ds with a gun pod, then they gave the shafirir 18Gs and an uncaged seeker, then they let us mix and match missiles, and now added the booster.
In War Thunder you use the boosters to get some energy back in a dogfight (since you bleed like your average soviet delta). In real life it had thrusters to get off of very small airstrips and carriers.

Use them in a fight yes, but don't use them to get energy back. This things engine is pretty good, what you should do is use them in the vertical when you're almost out of energy/airspeed, that's how I've found them to be most effective, in both this A-4 and the American 4B. If you wish, I even have a clip of me fighting a MiG-15bis in the 4B, against someone who is by no means a bad player, using them in the vertical, and allowing me to just barely get the shot I needed. Had I used them in ANY other way I would not have won the fight.
Greetings gentlemen, it is I the MiG-19PT who unfortunately had the rest of my team die quickly in the showcase match. Now I know why, they never stood a chance.
I absolutly love the A4N. It's probaly my favorite jet, an absolut underdog. And the best thing you can save the booster for a dogfight. I call it the funny Button.
If I can give tips for the wing rip: I usually do not use the boosters for the turns, allows me to avoid absolute ripping in snap rolls. On another note, This skyhawk is just the best to bully slow Mig-21's lol
I remember watching Israeli Air Force Skyhawks doing low passes over me as I was hiking in the Negev (desert in southern Israel) the sound of the Skyhawks flying 500 feet overhead at like 400 knots was insane
for all the a4s i use the boosters as a get out of jail free card if im slow in a sticky situation as like an after burner to get mor thrust for like 3 seconds
I try not to use the Shafrir 2's down low, only above like 2-3k. They perform best there. I mean all missiles perform better at alt but, down low they're just so slow and drag-y, compared to basically everything else. I keep the 9D's for low alt targets. But preferably still fire them from up high. I also always run chaff. I've never run out of CM's. Pog plane but needs at least a bit of skill and knowledge to actually be effective.
this thing is a top notch for bullying supersonics there's even a crazier version of this, the A-4SU Super Skyhawk with the F/A-18 engine (albeit without the afterburner)
0:37 This is very easy to fix as it's the same issue on G.91 Rs, simply uninstall new boosters, after I did that I never had a single issue with the Ayit ripping in a turn
I like to run it with a gunpod in the middle too, its very strong and fun to play, but it rips if you don't constantly tap W when you turn while going above 800 IAS
0:56 the fact that this sound effect implies that an AAM has a fully functioning gearbox and clutch control.. damn. (yes i know it was a joke don't @ me)
0:56 gearshifting on a jet would sound awesome in my opinion. But useless, at least turbojets. Those which are motorjets, or whatever it is called when a jet is powered by a piston engine (yes, it exsisted for a short period) may can be configured that way better but that's not how plane engines work. Yes, I dropped up and debunked an idea before even sending the comment, I'm that much of a reality nerd😅
howtf u got the netz but not the Ayit??? u been missing out my dooooo. A-4N is busted. You can bring min fuel and then have the most busted skyhawk performance. stationary twr when you are down to 3min is 1. The thrust curve is broken too bc you get max thrust at 0 ias and it only decreases with speed unlike other jets which loose thrust at low ias. This makes it absolutely busted for low speed turn fighting.
I never bought this thing because I hate the ones before it. They're just slow garbage with too much armament that you never get to use because you're so fat and slow. Then, as soon as you want to get aggressive and get some kills, the very tip of your wing rips off and you're dead. I fly bombers all the time, so I know how to avoid ripping wings. The A4 rips wings if you turn with any speed at all.
9D vs Shafrir 2 which is better? 9D is faster, Shafrir 2 is 2km better range then 9D (20km vs 18km respectively) but idk what guidance time is, 30sec vs 60sec. Guidance time meaning how long the missile will track before self-destructing?
AIM9-D is better, guidance time and "range" are irrelevant because both missiles will be completely out of energy by the time they reach their hypothetical guidance time. AIM9-D goes way further than the Shafrir-2 and is way faster. The thing about the 9D is that it is also caged, so you can't do off-boresight shots like the Shafrir-2. The 9D is better in most situations, and the Shafrir-2 is good in situations where you are really close range or going really slow, and can't quite get your guns on target.
Take 4 shafrirs, they're just better Aight I take that back they're supposed to have 95% of the speed of 9D's but I guess they fucked with the drag because my god do they look slow in the vid

Your outro clip with the F16 and Mig29 dogfight is always so enjoyable to watch with such a sick song in the background, really sick
Iser this song as my ringtone
yea ikr
yeah this is just amazing

The sound edits just keep getting better, for real 🔥🔥🔥
The A-4N is an absolute rat in sim vs early supersonics that try to energy trap you and you just feed them an aim 9
little tip, dont use the boosters in the start, use them when you have low energy or while you are for some reason dogfighting
Found someone with a brain
Hey joob, love your vids and i love your new editing style. Keep it up bro
Loving the edits 💪🏾
Iv been waiting so long for this
Love the little edits!
9Ds at 9.3, bro that's wild
5:23 ive found that on take off anywhere from 40-50 KPH works well with the booster
If I can give tips for the wing rip: I usually do not use the boosters for the turns, allows me to avoid absolute ripping in snap rolls.

Finally. Joob makes a video about my fav jet
I remember watching Israeli Air Force Skyhawks doing low passes over me as I was hiking in the Negev (desert in southern Israel) the sound of the Skyhawks flying 500 feet overhead at like 400 knots was insane
What a a satisfying conclusion
for all the a4s i use the boosters as a get out of jail free card if im slow in a sticky situation as like an after burner to get mor thrust for like 3 seconds
Joob has just bestowed upon us with more content! 😏
yes u used it, thank you man love it. I asked it in your live and you actually did it!!
also, the wing overload is insane so when you are at 1000kph and turn a bit your done.
you can also use the flaps already at about 800kph i think
i love it! its a great plain!
I always hop in the A-4N when I need to farm KB
I try not to use the Shafrir 2's down low, only above like 2-3k. They perform best there.

This is very easy to fix as it's the same issue on G.91 Rs, simply uninstall new boosters, after I did that I never had a single issue with the Ayit ripping in a turn
I don't run boosters
@@_Joobayit can sustain 9g pulls, it cant sustain them while you turn the aircraft in the opposite direction of the turn
@@_Joob Is it possible because of the higher fuel load? I run the minimum 10 minutes on mine and don't seem to rip
Boosters are for take off to take off faster. If you fully load the A4 with ground stuff you will see why. They will get you to 120-160kph pretty fast
I like to run it with a gunpod in the middle too, its very strong and fun to play, but it rips if you don't constantly tap W when you turn while going above 800 IAS
wake up babe, joob is editing differently
Nice edits
the supercharger whine 😂
Almost all hope for Joob doing a video on a Spitfire is lost, but eh, imma keep waiting
Try the Q-5, a MiG 19 with flares at 9.0
This plane is like a yak 38 if it could turn excluding the vtol capability no bisnes being at 9.3
I reckon you could spare the boosters for dogfights to surprise the enemy with a sudden speed increase
It breaks its wings so easily..
Plane rolls like crazy and I'm getting Top Gun flashbacks
Sound Edits hitting fr😂
Planes called A Yeet, don't need much more than that
u should make a video on the LA 200
I don't really need to say more.
That first missile you fired, sounds like you used a 03/04 cobra sound clip for that lol
Good ear ;)
@@_Joob I own one so as soon as I heard it I was like man that’s super familiar sounding
Will you make a video on the event SU25BM?
Could you try and play a flareless plane, because most flareless planes have rockets wich can act as flares when fired correctly.
I love that
I was on a A5C and one F4 try that
The Magic 1 just ignore that rockets LOL
New editing style, me likiey :D!
the boosters ae best in a fight
Doomfist here. And dey sey!
ive re watched this so many times
but that mig21s at 3:30 how is he popping flares, which mig 21s has flares
Plane in front of him dropped em it looks like.
I love/hate this plane .
I love flying with this but my wings .. just disapear 😂😂
New Video = More Pain More Pain = New things = New video ideas
i cant remember how many times i got 6+ kills even in up tiers on this jet
Liking the new edits
Good video, personally i hate the a-4 because ive died to it too many times at 9.3 ground rb, but a good video again (:
I want this thing so bad
Early gang
i always pick the 4 shafrir 2s because they are so slow no one expects them to still pull 18g and just assumes its a 9b
a4 navy takeoff with heavy loads from carriers with boosted takeoff
take 4 missiles + 1 gunpod it feels amazing
0:23 Crazy? I was crazy once
F4U-4 Vid? I swear no one talks about this plane. It’s an F4U-4B at 4.7 with .50 cals instead meaning better performance?
How is the M61 vulcan after the realshatter fix?
pretty good
the memes LMAO
Scrambling offf airfields durind surprise attacks, faster turnaround time
meanwhile the A-4M just does not get to be added to the US tree because reasons
0:56 the fact that this sound effect implies that an AAM has a fully functioning gearbox and clutch control.. damn.
(yes i know it was a joke don't @ me)
You should fly the F-100D
i have 120 matches in the a4n and its wings have never ripped
Those sounds of missile🤣🤣🤣
On a day, I was made
make video on mig15bis/17a when?
*Dodges it, easily*
we should grind the su25bm together

I take 4 shafrirs only because they are uncaged, caged missiles are a pain in the ass to use
Good luck killing any F104s. And the Shafifrs have so much more drag than the 9D
That camera movement gave me a headache
