Planes have absolutely no problem bullying tanks in War Thunder, so how do you fight back? With more planes, of course.

Using CAS To Destroy CAS

There are no gun sounds for aircraft. I don't know why, I'm not using a sound mod.
Silencers duh!
Same issue here, I was using Epic Thunder and though thats what broke it, uninstalled and nope, just WT things...
Agent 47 is the pilot 😳sillenced guns
Just take off the silencer modification bro
Day 65 of asking spookston to play the sturmpanzer
I love intercepting cas because they always expect to just bomb someone with little to no opposition so often they leave their gaurd down
Also helps most of them are picking aircraft that can’t dog fight worth a damn.
Only problem is you have to hope the buggers don’t ram the ground before you arrive
i only bring planes for Anti CAS, love bringing insane fighters to shit all over the brainless CAS players
It's funny because they then get butthurt and will switch to aa and target only your plane
CAS is too OP anyways, Im glad some people like to crap on them because I just want to play a damn tank without spawning antiair all the time. 🤣
Same feels so good killing a jet with my seafire when he tried to turnfight me had, so many times a me262 tried to out-turn me and when i got them they almost always play aa to target me xD ngl thats why i play planes especially since ive got a great jet now to counter
"It's just an inundation of airborne maggots"- spookston's kindest opinion about cas players
It sounds like the name of a post-hardcore band.
i mean atleast we know cas mains arent spending their time picking legs off of spiders or strangling cats aslong as they are in warthunder.
He went full TF2 Soldier there
@@magnachemmayhemMaggot scum, the nazis in the air
The amount of indignation in his voice when he said that was insane.
spookston in previous videos: "I don't know how to fly very well"
spookston in this video:
- talks about energy states
- has good deflection shooting
- dogfights successfully with another fighter
- knows the relative maneuverability of different fighters
- "maybe i can energy trap him"
- drops throttle when pulling up
- doesn't constantly stay on WEP
- inputs optimal rudder controls
- decent accuracy with bombs (CAS video)
- doesn't notice a dead engine but lands at the airfield
@@ZeykronZgives the 109 a free shot by placing himself 400 meters in front of him and wonders how he managed to hang with him
@@mr_confuse mistakes happen, but it's clear spookston doesn't play air rb often
This is all like basic stuff lol
@@shukes4645 Do people play that? One of the reasons I don't play planes is because it takes about 5-10 minutes to find an rb game.
11:09 XP-55 was actually pronounced "ass ender" but was spelled ascender to skirt the fact that the air force refused to name a plane "ass ender"
"I don't get how when I WANT to fight planes, no one spawns them" Welcome to the life of a fighter pilot in war thunder.
that's me when I tried to play as dedicated SPAA for a day
To be fair, spook was on US team which are notorious for absolutely cracked CAS loadout like the F6F with like two 1000 lb and 6 HVAR or the P-61 with four of those bombs while other nation with similar fighter just stuck with a single 250kg or 500kg on Fw190 and two 250kg for IL-10.
@purplfedora800 yeah that's why I like ifvs with irst. it can do both roles, light tank and an aa
@thegrayseed2792 American has the most bombs and missiles on their planes. Gotta make up for the mediocre tanks.
Though German has a lot of different things that are just cracked as well. Mostly at a slightly higher Br than what spook was playing at.
Then Russia just has blatantly better aircraft despite their aircraft not being as good as the game says they are by miles
@@aiedenoldstien9751 Apart from the PE-8 and IL-2, Russian CAS is pretty mediocre. The PE-8 only works because big fucking bomb and the IL-2 is only good because it can take so much punishment that you can basically just place your bombs on top of enemy tanks, and the IL-2 was known for being incredibly tough
Those people who are Close Air Protection are necessary to my sanity on the ground. Thank you, 190s, P-51 NAs and other anti cas people.
Wait, doesn't CAP stand for Combat Air Patrol?
@@StrvB-ng8kb Yeah, CAP stands for Combat Air Patrol
Whenever I play ground RB, I always bring in a fighter just to help out my boys on the ground
If im playing Britain usually im flying a Spitfire, and if I'm playing Japan it's the A7
@@StrvB-ng8kb it also stands for that
I don’t play planes
About the 109, he wasn't catching up to you at all. You were gaining altitude on him the whole time, it's just that you were flying straight enough that he got some shots at you before he had to dip back down. Usually what you want to do in that situation is make an upwards corkscrew, which makes it harder for him to get guns on you.
said the same thing in a post earlier, i played ALOT of air rb and can confidently tell you that spookton basically flew right into the dudes guns, he only had to pull the trigger. Had he literally gone in an other direction he wouldn't have been shot
Spookston: *says he hates cas*
also spook:*proceeds to strafe light vehicles in planes
it's not the player, it's the plane
It just shows how Spookston has played for a REALLY long time when he can identify a plane while it looks like 2 pixels on screen
he's half way into researching the F14
he's been playing more air than he's been admitting lol
Pretty sure a stuka have like one of the most iconic plane silouettes ngl
To all SPAA and anti cas interceptors...thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Anti-cas interceptors..................................... Entire team picks useless fighters and there's noone to fight on the ground and not a single cas in enemy team
o7
As someone doing the Lord's work with SPAAs, especially at top tier, your thanks are appreciated!
Np
Are you sure you're thankful? I drive R3s, Italian Wirbelwinds, Wirbelwinds and L-62s and don't remember shooting down planes in the last few dozens of matches.
As someone who desperately enjoys taking down CAS before they can do any damage, be it in a Spitfire or a G6, I am very flattered by the intro of this video
@@Roniixx You are a- a respectable human being for whom I have no hatred whatsoever (no cap)
I have 2700 games of bullying reserve tier players using one of the most overpowered CAS planes in the game, the TBD.
Once gotten an 18 kill run.
>Plays Spookston video
>Looks inside
>Spam Calls
This is my 78th attempt at asking spookston to play the t32e1. You know its a great day when spookston uploads a video.
It is fun especially in a full downtime now. And APCR can be somewhat useful too. I love that thing
Second, its quite good now.
You trying to make him suffer bro?
@@nickmurphy4209Wait. Hold on a minute. Did i see "APCR" and "somewhat useful" in the same sentence? Did they buff the APCR? When i spaded my PT-76 (before the reload buff) it had stock APCR and it was absolutely painful. I used APCR in the past, but it absolutely loves to ricochet. So i rely mostly on APHE to do the work.
this is my preferred way of playing planes in war thunder since i'm not a huge fan of air rb. the lack of markers for enemies and the map being much smaller makes the dogfighting experience much better in ground rb imo.
Yeeeeeeeeees! I FUCKING HATE ENEMY MARKERS IN ARB (the half hour of flying to the combat too)
@@Haxler8We are not alone!
@@Haxler8idk I like energy trapping people and getting a 5.0 k/d in a plane
Anti CAS has become one of my favorite things do, particularly during events when CAS can be infuriating at times. The A6M5 ko and J6k1 are my go to planes purely because they are a perfect fit in GRB imo. Plus, I used to think anti-cas was a thankless job, but there were a few times during the summer event where I got a couple of thank yous from teammates, which is a nice dopamine hit
Turn fighters are really mean when you are basically locked in a small octagon
Just reading the title tells me this will be absolutely glorious, peak spookston performance dare I say so myself
"I'm not revenge killing. I'm setting the universe right." -Spookston
The He-162 excels in a anti CAS role, the early Japanese planes armed with .50cals are also worth bringing out at higher BRs
The reason why the Bf 109 was able to keep up with you in that climb was because you weren't far enough away to get away from him. If you do this again, or if anyone here finds themselves in that situation, extend horizontally for a bit before climbing back up or you'll be slow within range of your bandit's guns.
honestly you should make this like a series with every country.
Speaking of American 57mm, the SU57 (Tier 1 Russia) is armed with it along with deceptively good mobility and rear drive speeds. I'd love to see you try it out.
When I got a discount for that thing I really thought it meant the sukhoi su57
@@angelmarinarenas5626Bro, we got the MiG-29 quite recently. It'll take some time for the sukhoi Su-57 to join the game.
9:03 "I'm not revenge killing, I'm just setting the universe right. My round penning was a cannon event he tried to avoid."
That was hilarious.
Spookston never fails to fill me up with excitement everytime he posts.
I really recommend the Chaika, the machine guns are great and its able to turn on a dime, the autocannon version is also fantastic but its a biplane so its slow and extremely fragile but great for Anti Air
the Ki-43 is insanely broken for ground rb as well
@@blu5021 its broken for everything, easily undertiered by like 1.0
I fucking LOVE the chaika. Easily my favorite premium plane. Being able to outmaneuver almost anything in the air and then annihilate them once you get your guns on target is amazing.
@@phunkracy its not 1.0, 2.7 lmao
@@blu5021 you misread what i wrote buddy
6:46 "Oh no, Spookston's been outsmarted!"
Spookston: "Observe"
2:55 spookston forgets what flies are called
Thank you for making the videos that you do man. Was worried that the game wouldn’t recover, but just watching some of your plays got me hyped to hop back it. I know it’s just a game, but people like you help make it fun.
love the F6F with the wing-mounted radar for this. as long as you take a second to sweep the enemy spawn you can always let your team know when CAS is coming in, and you get the tiny tims as well, 10/10
I find it very fun watching Spookston play CAS. I am a 50/50 ground/air kinda guy. It is my dream to join in some WT with Spookston one day. #1 favorite RUclipsr. Never sugar coats anything.
Keep up the good work Spookston!
does he ever compliment anything tho
@@arthurdent4791 does it matter?
01:55 "You were the chosen one, Spookston! It was said that you would destroy CAS, not join them!"
This is one of my favorite videos of yours in recent times, seeing you so dominant in a different light is extremely cool!
As someone who plays a lot of CAS into anti-CAS, it sure is fun. I absolutely adore bombing some bushed up premium camping our spawn only to shred his plane 30 seconds later.
That just happened to me last match, so Godspeed
For ultimate anti-CAS plane spawning on Ground RB I'd go with the P39/P63 and the F4Us on the American lineup. People do make a killing on the F6F but I've never been able to do anything much on them.
what lol
"My round penning was a cannon event he tried to avoid" is the most masterful thing I have ever heard from him
hearing spookton talk about plane performance, is like hearing a bear talk about hunting with a gun, he knows abit about it but hes also missing a few key parts.
0:15 HEY THATS ME
13:19 It goes from Kursk to the After Calamity skies of the Bering Strait really fast.
I just found you today on my FYP… your edits, commentary and gameplay are so fun to watch
The runescape magic meme re-awoken my PTSD of having to run through the wildy and getting teammed by a bunch of ice barrage spammers and rangers back in the day.
I've wondered for a while now how a game mode where you chose either plane or tank to begin with and every team is like 2/3rds tanks 1/3rd planes both spawn in at the same time. Would make the air part of the ground battles so much more consistent.
Maybe something like the enlisted spawn system where spawn points for planes are shared across the team with a set upper limit, maybe 2-3 total, maybe have it so losing team can get more/better bombs to try and turn the tide
The could always make a combined arms mode that does this and completely remove air from the ground entirely.
Giving ground players who play exclusively tanks somewhere to go while people who want the experience of air and ground a place to be
@aiedenoldstien9751 yeah but I'm guessing warthunder doesn't want to keep spilting the playerbase between modes more rn we got like 7 different modes and then u gonna account matchmaking with the different Brs yeah it's alot of splitting hell some modes are dead in higher ranks like arcade
@doomguy.23frommars60 They have 6 modes excluding the pve, Sim, squadron modes, and event modes. To be honest, the game would have plenty of players to fill the mode if Gajin would stop making stupid decisions.
To be honest we can also exclude naval from list since no one really likes that mode. (I say this in a semi-joke sense.) Though more people go to World of Warships I'd they want boats.
@@aiedenoldstien9751as the only Italian navy main.
Screw you for being right.
I like the mechanics in warthunder more. But God some of the naval maps are awfull.
Listening to Spookston talking like an ARB player is something I'd thought I'd never hear
Honestly I really like these videos with both ground and air gameplay in the same battles - keep it upppppp
Never watched you before but I love your content so far you are very entertaining and seem pretty chill overall you have earned a sub
I almost exclusively spawn as a fighter to counter enemy planes. In fact, Ground RB is a better environment for a lot of planes that are terrible in Air RB, like the sea venom and vampire, since there aren't any markers.
14:07 Fun fact Spook, the gear on the Corsair was built to double as a dive brake, try using it next time.
the XF5F is probably one of my favorite planes because of how goofy it looks, thank you for playing it lmao
Probably the most insane content on youtube. You guys are hiliarious.
great video, keep up the videos!
could ya one of these days do the T26E1-1?
14:47 Do not attempt to escape the telemarketing services
Resistance is futile.
Yeah, i feel you man with that Pvkv II ghost shell
Cas is the reason why I took time to learn planes. If I can’t enjoy my ground you can’t ebjoy your air time
Hey, just a few recommendations for CAP. You want to be in a position where you place yourself above the enemy planes when they spawn and between their spawn and the ground map. This allows you to decide the fight before they can climb and build energy whilst also allowing for multiple interception opportunities before it reaches the field. I use feet and the altitude used varies between map to map but about 2000-2500 Meters usually works. Also, the spitfire MkIIb is surprisingly good a BR 5.3.
SPOOKSTON YOU SO REAL FOR THIS ONE 😭‼BECOME THE CAS DESTROYER OF CAS
I love the inclusion of the call at the end, it was so funny
I love taking out something like a Yak-3 and proceeding to completely deny the airspace to bf 109s, fw 190s, do 335s, he 111s, me 410s, me 262s, arados, ho 229s, P-51s, Corsairs, and p-47s. You legitimately help your team more by keeping the skies clear than any attempt at ground pounding.
Tip: If you see a Pe-8 that's already dropped its FAB-5000 and the bomb is within shooting distance, shoot the bomb first. You can always circle for the bomber later. Better to have more teammates on the ground contesting for cap points.
Heyyy it’s been a while but here’s a reminder that you are awesome keep it up love ya❤
Love you for showing xf-5f, it is an amazing grind plane for mid tier usa planes, + with premium you get 10-15k per kill in air RB, keep making this vids
This sounds like some of the most fun spooks has had in ages haha
Something like the Bt-7A could be a nice video. Decently fast, decent gun, light tank and pintel mg.
Could you try the 6.0 French Wombo Combo? Using the worst TD (ELC bis) paired with the best CAS prop (F4U-7 with SNEBs). There’s such a culture shock going from a painful tank to such a fun plane.
Ground RB is unironically just a more compact and fun air RB where targeting bombers is not only optimal but morally correct.
“My round penning was a cannon event that he tried to avoid.” That made me spit out my drink.
Only OGs remember: I’m currently working with Apex Gaming………
Hello Spookston,
Nice video as always!
I would love seeing you playing the M18 GMC.
Its a really fun tank.
Thank you for uploading :D
(Day 11)
4:44 "It was said you were supposed to destroy the CAS, not join them. Bring balance to the game, not leave it in darkness."
My greatest pride & love when I play CAP is using the 9.0 or the 9.3 Gazelle with it's Mistrals missiles, just beautiful.
Can you please do a 10 part series on using top tier cas aircraft I think it would be so fun and enjoyable to watch.
Day 9 of asking spookston to play the Ikv 103
Sometimes i have a lineup with the M24 Chaffee and the P39Q,that plane is so incredible at fighting CAS players at that low of a BR.
It's an incredible lineup
As someone who enjoys getting into fighters and killing CAS, the respect given at the start of the video is an absolute win
Spookston said the exact problem i had when i just bought my chieftan marksman me thinking im going to make those cas planes suffer then none spawn
Love how that poor Stuart at the beginning when he ate it he slowly slumped into over onto its side
So cool to see the ascender in a video also the comcast thing I feel that because it happens to me constantly
Spookston: complains about the lack of modern American medium caliber guns
Me: directs you to the XM913 cannon
Requesting Merkava 4M
I have been playing top tier and just capping a base and then scouting until I can respawn in air superiority fighters, F-16 vs mig-27s and yak-141 vs f16 and a10 spam. It’s my favorite gameplay loop been doing it for about a year.
Spookston took vengeance this video, that's crazy.
The return of evil spookston, after thee first cas video and the one with the bushes
It’s so nice seeing some recognition for my favorite play style lol
I actually really enjoyed this
the allure of revenge cas is so great that even spookston does it
I love playing CAP especially at 5.3-5.7. Especially intercepting PE-8s and Lancasters
Inundation of airborne maggots is my new favorite phrase
This is my new favorite spookston video. It feels so good watching cas players PERISH
My favourite thing to fly is Yak-9B. It has 4 small bombs for very precise kills, and once they're out its excellent flight performance allows you to get rid of any opposing aircraft with ease
Spook playing planes is so blessed
He had very similar energy as you did when you engaged him because he has tons of excess power.
He was able to maintain his energy during the fight by not pulling too many G's (except at some key moments) and using his excess power to make up for energy lost during turns.
Meanwhile you lost a lot of energy.
For example at 6:00 you're in a lead pursuit. He tightens his turn and you respond by tightening as well. Then you pull up and over, pulling up to 9G, which bled your energy. He lost energy too, but he has more excess power to make up for it, resulting in the both of you having similar energy.
Looking at it again, he did have less energy throughout, but he bled your energy enough that you couldn't outrun him in the vertical fast enough. He didn't "keep up" that's just cope
no way you actually analyzed this to get no response at all
Now all that remains is for Spookston to make a collab with Defyn and absolutely destroy the enemy
Playing CAP with the sturmvogel is so satisfying jumping thunderbolts thinking they can get a free two kills uncontested. We need more CAP players in GRB
I love doing this, the F-80C and F-84G are too powerful as air-to-air, and if you're willing to have some situational awareness, their payload is great too. The F6F and F4U are the same, but the two jets are the same br, and because they're different classes of aircraft, you can spawn both pretty easily.
Mufti Menk in a spookston video now I've seen everything
watching spookston get ground kills is like watching the hero become the villain
Spook pulled a, "I used the stone to destroy the stone".
I am happy to know that you live pilots like me.
Since I am a CAS hunter.
You should squad up some some people, anyone, and then have you play whatever vehicle you want and they fly as CAS hunters to protect you from air attack.
See what happens.
That 2nd last game was a full on Air RB match with tanks in the background.
that's why i love the Yak 3p, this the perfect CAS counter to it's BR and i always kill at least 2 or 3 plane per spawn with it
The 109 was just very versatile, jack of most trades master of some.
‘An inundation of airborne maggots’. I’ll make sure to use that in future descriptions of cas.
G'day Spookston,
While not a tonker but one of the three sailors when I must get in the air the Bf 109 E-3 (inplace for the T model) & FAA F4U are my go to anti cas fighters, It can be nice to patrol the skies when my AA ships fall and then there's the soviet corvettes which result in fighters not being needed due to having an AK-630 at 4.0 yeah RIP all aircraft...
Odd note in any F4U you may use the landing gear as dive breaks if needed.
Ahh hopefully with such a video it shall please the AntiCAS players and hopefully you make another such video.
