in old tactics the pheonix is completely silent (aside from scanning beeps) but they recently fixed that and it properly pitbulls. Best 1v1 strat on a persistent target imo is pheonix (if at high altitude), then sparrow, then back to pheonix (but don't babysit it this time, turn away immediately - it will confuse most players, especially those using PD HDN), and then into gun/sidewinder/zuni range.
Just got the F-14A tonight, im definitely going to use this strategy when I unlock the Pheonixes! Ive been so excited to take this out in sim. Still grinding 7F's, 9H's and pheonixes. Its gonna be a while but itll be worth it! Update: this doesn't work anymore. And the F-14A is kinda doodoo.
Man, I absolutely loved using custom battles to both test new aircraft, and improve my flying skills. The last few months, however, any custom battle, with high tier aircrafts, about 90% of the bot planes, on both sides, crash shortly after taking off. Kinda sucks that I can't practice in custom battles anymore, is this just my game, or is anyone else experiencing this?
How can you changer the radar view to that square, I have 7k hours played buttt Im a MBT player, I never play jets even Im in top tier too but in realistic battles
f-14A is at the top of its BR bracket but has worse everything and f-14B is at the bottom of its BR bracket but has better engines and weapons. its really up to you. tbh its been fun for me to go back to f14A and clap up the 11.0-11.7 bracket
Why do you use src PD HDN mode to find targets? I know its supposed to have more range, with PDV having the most IRL, but is that actually modeled in WT?
@@ichaboi14 Not much really changed for the F-14. Mig-29s will stay very low for the first 10 minutes or so. Been playing quite a bit of matches with it now and its played like any Mig-23 up until the player count goes down to one handful, then they usually start working with altitude for dogfights and such. But early on, same game. I'd personally just need to know how to make Aim-54s actually hit 😂 I shoot them in pairs on 23-26km distance with a couple of seconds in between them, but the hit rate is quite low.
@@Drnken229 in RB dont use the aim54 only on sim maps and there u can yeet them for 50km or 60km on normal RB maps just go in with 4 or 6 aim7f and depending on how many aim7f you took you take 2 or 4 aim9H
War Thunder's broken RWR is to blame here... You get an indication that there a radar that way, but you dont know what radar it is... For war thunder an F 14, an F 16, a ship and a roland radars are all the same... very poorly implemented. Dont waste your time on war thunder if you want to play sim. It is a terrible simulator. Flight models, physics and all that are very basic and quite broken in some ways. Grab a plane on sale for DCS and enjoy yourselves. There is a lot to learn from it, its cheaper, it has better flight models and fully functional cockpits, the game looks better, it has better physics simulation both for the aircraft and for the weapons, there is no fucking grind... no in game currency, xp or any of that bullshit...

Great vid.
Now i see why my Mirage F1 keeps getting wasted by F-14's.
I always get phoenixed even before I see them on my radar.
lol almost all my kills are f14s climbing and one time I dogfighted one and I won lol
Once you learn notching it's pretty useless
@@MiG-23_enthusiast you need to dogfight more. Tomcat is a beast
@@aviatorlewski9310 I'm a mig 23 player

Should I take the f-14A or the B variant? Wich one is better and more fun?
@@WTclips001 B don't gotta deal with rear aspect missiles and a arh missile that has issues tracking.
hehe ima use this as a leg up against f-14s
4:30 makes sense why when I get pinged from rwr 3 seconds later I die to a pheonix lmao
I kill two mig 29s and only get 13k SL for it and my repair cost is 21 thousand this is a pointless waste of my time the rewards are worst than RB
What plane are you using that has a 21k repair cost
@@jedinight235 this was a year ago repair cost is cheaper now
thanks bro, helps alot!- mig 29
you got it champ!- fox 3
Dude thanks for the vids, this helps a lot!!
glad you liked it!! :)
@@ichaboi14 hey dude, i was in my A7 cuzz i forgot to switch my AV8 for the F14, i wouldve liked to go a couple rounds with ya
Still don’t know what to look for that indicates I have a good lock, like in RB you see the two red circles
Just use the tws it literally gives you the location of the target and you don't have to fuck around with radar settings so much

yeah wt bots are really bad. in Afgan they just fly into the mountains at spawn
Should do a revised tutorial now that contrails exist xd
hmmmm not a bad idea
I never can get into lobby in sim mode. :( None playing this game in this mode when I am in.
How can you changer the radar view to that square, I have 7k hours played buttt Im a MBT player, I never play jets even Im in top tier too but in realistic battles
@@wotblitzlatam5883 go to options, air battle settings, then “use rectangular radar indicator” turn that to yes
@@ichaboi14 ohhh thanks for answering mate!!! A year ago latter and still giving answers hahaha
@@ichaboi14 I cant find that optionn, Im going crazy
w
I play on ps4 and the f14 is hard to use the radar constantly switches targets making the aim 54 useless
Can you make a keybind video?
Should i take the f14A or B variant? Wich one is better and more fun?

@@ichaboi14 aight, ty man
So only special keybind I need is to switch radar mode?
That's so lame how u can only track your missle with the POS outside radar thing
How much SL do you get for a splash 2 in the f14 sim???
Same money in Rb, you get the final amount and multiplier at the ends of the game
@@FishyTopic I think it's slightly different over the RB scoring but pretty much
That’s 4 flares not 2. Every pop of a countermeasure launches 2
F14 only pops 1 at a time
does the soft lock only work with aim 54-As? it doesnt let me launch my aim 7fs unless i hard lock them
something to do with datalink or something like that. im not an engineer i just know only Aim54 can do that. for now
54s can soft lock, but 7fs have to be hard locked.
Why do you use src PD HDN mode to find targets? I know its supposed to have more range, with PDV having the most IRL, but is that actually modeled in WT?
PDV dosnt have iff and although i know how targets position on the radar is relative to their velocity I get confused sometimes.
@@ichaboi14 Then why use PD HDN? Does it actually have more range or do you just like having the full horizon search?
Hey man. I started playing sim again this weekend and I keep getting slapped, now I know I shouldnt play tunisia.
go the bigger 128x128 maps
Now in RB
I'm pretty bad at RB tbh and the meta is still developing due to the update, might make one when things settle down.

in my opinion air rb sucks in top tier unless they make it so that only ec maps are in the pool it just becomes far to hectic
Aim 54 is so easy to defeat
x3 tomcat with x18 AIM-54 begs to differ😂
Yeah. Now dogfight the tomcat😊

In simulator mode they do quite well
