You should do a video on the F4U-7, last production Corsair and was used exclusively by the French Navy. It carries an insane amount of SNEB rockets and is perhaps the best CAS fighter in the French tree.
Should also be mentioned that it’s one of the slowest planes at low altitude at its BR. The turbo installation and exposed pipes just add a ton of extra drag which is only worth it at high alts where the turbo can maintain engine power relative to other planes. It’s definitely no P-47 (which was designed from the onset with that huge fuselage to house the turbocharger in a relatively low-drag configuration).
This was the first premium fighter that I owned outside of your usual signing up bonus Buffalo. I have a few things to say about this bird for future buyers (although looking at the price, I don't think anyone outside of collectors will buy it). This is a very unique aircraft that atleast in your first turn merge can mimick a low lowered yak in that it will surprise people seeing a 190 turn that quickly. 190C will feel like an unfinished flight model once you push it a bit from your normal War thunder maneuvers, such as rudder kicking and landing flaps rate fights. It's belly hump really takes a toll on the flight model and although I have yet to rip it in a dive, this thing retains controls well in steep dives, which is surprising how bad 190 elevators are modeled in game, even though they're electrically actuated rather than hydraulically or pneumatic. This intercooler hump should help you at 8km and above alts but like Tim said, you don't usually get to fight up that high anyways. I'm glad I played it in the golden era of air rb, mg 151s were buffed recently, there was no Ju288 spam and there was historical match making as opposed to what we have now, so this makes the 190c loose out on any and all advantages it has in the current environment. I firmly believe that in current meta this thing should be 4.7 or even 4.3 in battle rating, it's advantages lie so much on the margins that it hardly comes into play, although it does great in catching newer players off guard who think they can maneuver away from a tail sitting 190. I like this bird a lot, and yes I do concede that it certainly looks great but out of all the FW series, only the 152-H1 can have the beauty crown, even bar none among all ww2 birds.
Agree 100%. Anyone buying this on the Marketplace will be disappointed in its performance vs its hefty price tag. It’s a nice looking bird, but the beauty crown belongs to the Doras..sorry 152.
Good old times where you'd take off from Berlin Tempelhof, climb towards b17 and 24 who would win the game in one pass if not sufficiently dealt with, then fight the rest of the US fighters Nation vs Nation was the most fun
I think this was the first War Thunder event I ever saw, so I had no idea what to do and didn't bother looking into it. Unfortunate, since I missed the great T30 heavy tank too.
I was surprised you didn't mention the insane idle thrust in the landing section. I'm not really confident with skid-turning to stop in this thing, but the idle thrust prevents you from stopping without digging your nose into the ground. So I found it necessary to shut down the engine once all wheels have made ground contact in order to stop safely.
6:24 not if you aim for wings and elevators! Love this thing, so so SO much It’s the only 190 I like pretty much, the roll characteristics feel more stable than other 190s and it feels more American to fly
I so so want this aircraft as I'm a major 190 fan. Sadly, i don't have access to the gaijin market, so I can simply watch it being flown, and that's it.
It would be interesting to have a review on the javelin, since a lot of people say it's trash while other days it's really good. Please do this review !
awesome review, what are your feelings about the fact that warthunder seems to be your most popular content? With the variety present on your channel, would you say you’re a bit disappointed that warthunder reviews do so much better?
Not sure what happened but i just feel like the 20mm mg151 on german planes absolutely suck, unless you get hits with the minengeschoß rounds, otherwise i just feel like i'm doing nothing to planes.
A cool plane to cover would be the XA-38 Grizzly. I got it recently and it would be cool to see a review on it. Anyway, thanks for the awesome videos! They always make my day just a little better.
Just in terms of looks for me the 190 F-8 takes the cake of the 190's. I dont like the huge intakes on the belly, which is also why I dont find the p51 particularly beautiful. Best looking prop in my opinion is p-63a-10, closely followed by the F-8 (and the Anton's), the ta154a1, and the Griffon bubble canopy Spits. However most beautiful plane overall is obviously the Mirage 2000 ;)
This plane looks so cool, until you notice that giant air intake on the bottom. Two 20mms are more than enough in terms of armament (from my experience with stealth belts at least) to take care out of pretty much any enemy with just one or two bursts. I personally prefer A-5/U2 which has no mgs, but they are borderline useless anyway.
@@csh5414 For which gamemode? For RB, my best tip is to not play them because of repair costs. In AB, you should take advantage of your firepower and durability; find groups of enemies, delete them, go back to reload and regain a bit of altitude. This should easily gain you over 10 kills per battle. You can turn with enemies but only when you have energy, the lighter variants are obviously better it it. Headons are a pretty good option, especially if you're good at them. In terms of loadouts, I always use stealth on all of the guns and no payload or gunpods.
@@csh5414 If you don't mind RB repair costs and stuff, you should probably use it for boom and zoom and head-ons. I can't really help more than that tho.
So it has: Weak guns, Good high alt performance but suffers at low alts, Has low climb rate, Often gets stuck just flying around at high alt doing nothing. So it's basically an American plane.
Can you please do a review on the F104A? I am wondering how this is at the same BR as the F4-C. Do you think this is supposed to be at BR 10.0 or do you think war thunder should give it slightly better missiles like e Aim9E?
Its not as good but if you play it like me and just no skill head on and clap slow players you can mabey get like 3 kills before dying to some bs r60s. F4C is way better and honestly you should stick to it but the f104a and c aren't so bad but if they were put to 9.7 it would ruin that already shit br

As a fighter player i find it at least subpar in air rb, but seems amazing in ground RB
@@cana0 even in air rb, they can crack pill boxes and heavy tanks. With over 100 rockets you can do that for awhile
@@crsmith6226 air rb is about fighting planes
@@cana0 no its not.
It was not only in service with the French
You may know it as the au1 in the US tree

Nation vs Nation was the most fun
Love your reviews which also include a nice splash of history. Keep it up!
The thing looks like some amalgamation of a P-51 and a 190
Very steampunk
Flys like it too
I think this was the first War Thunder event I ever saw, so I had no idea what to do and didn't bother looking into it. Unfortunate, since I missed the great T30 heavy tank too.
Was around the same ball park but nice nostalgia
So what do you do when an event comes around?
Ta 152 H-1 and Ta 152 C-3 is love when you dont have a 6 vs 6 and you have 4 Ju 288 on your team
I would love to see a rewiew
Also congrats on hitting 10k subs Tim!

Nice to see a review on this, its my favourite prop fighter in the game!
I just got it in the new snow globes!
6:24 not if you aim for wings and elevators!
Love this thing, so so SO much
It’s the only 190 I like pretty much, the roll characteristics feel more stable than other 190s and it feels more American to fly
I worked hard to grind to this 190 just because of how cool it looked. Like some old German hot rod.
Wow these germans drink so much beer that the plane even has a beer belly.
Wow! It looks so different than the A model.
If I'm honest, it looks like somebody took an Fw-190 and made it into an American muscle car, considering the huge intakes on the aircraft
Still have the coupon, just chillin' in the box.. does seem like a fun plane though.
I remember that this plane had a bug where the MG´s where in the left wing and the cannons on the right, it was really good doe
Wow! That’s a beautiful plane!!
I so so want this aircraft as I'm a major 190 fan. Sadly, i don't have access to the gaijin market, so I can simply watch it being flown, and that's it.
glad you're doing some videos on the lower ranks :)
It would be interesting to have a review on the javelin, since a lot of people say it's trash while other days it's really good.
Please do this review !
Patience, patience!!
Good job in uploading in 1440p mate :) nice video as always
My uploads are in 4k/60fps, but I dont really know what YT does to them with its "processing"
awesome review, what are your feelings about the fact that warthunder seems to be your most popular content? With the variety present on your channel, would you say you’re a bit disappointed that warthunder reviews do so much better?
Not at all - WT has an enormous playerbase, its a huge audience.
Woo a German aircraft! Thanks Tim!
one of the fastest planes in game, can do up to 480mph in a straight line
Not sure what happened but i just feel like the 20mm mg151 on german planes absolutely suck, unless you get hits with the minengeschoß rounds, otherwise i just feel like i'm doing nothing to planes.
They just feel a bit weaker because most of the other 20mm guns have been buffed.
True true it feels like the 20mm are weak as hell
A cool plane to cover would be the XA-38 Grizzly. I got it recently and it would be cool to see a review on it. Anyway, thanks for the awesome videos! They always make my day just a little better.
F3D-2 skyknight next? Feel its forgotten

I think it would be a beast in simulator battles , to hunt the AI , but i don't have it.
I''ll test it out for ya! Got VR to
Could you do a review on the german Cl-13 Mk5? These videos are really helpful.
Was that a 2.5km pilot snipe?
YUUUUUUUUUP!!!!
My favorite plane. I have a 5 to 1 KD with it
Never seen anyone fly that
Sold mine some years ago when the marketprice was 20 :D

I dont see a real problem with the armament. The additional 2 20mm cannons in the wing tips never do much for me, nor do the 13mm machineguns.
To sum up the Fw-190C: it’s a Fw-190 that has breathing problems
Haha, yeah it gets asthmatic below 6km
So it has:
Weak guns,
Good high alt performance but suffers at low alts,
Has low climb rate,
Often gets stuck just flying around at high alt doing nothing.
So it's basically an American plane.
You had difficulty finding footage because it plays in the same tier that the damn ju-288 plays in that ruined that BR
9:09 Fuck-a-wolf 190
