I always confused those two planes. I was playing a game with WWII planes and the game had a bomber named B-25 Mitchell, with 2 engines, belly gunner and front glass plate. I guess the made and named it wrong....

The US 50 cals are only useful against other US aircraft. Nations like Italy and Japan have explosive filler in their 50’s and every nation has better self sealing fuel tanks for incendiary rounds than the US.
ruclips.net/video/nPX56GQ2s-w/видео.html this is how it looks like to play a bomber in War thunder. All of them die and only one makes it to the target.
You notice they have no escort? Fighters ought to lose points if the bombers they are supposed to be protecting don't make it. That is their role. They were NOT gladiators, and fighter to fighter engagements were often forbidden by HQ, but in War Thunder that is what most people do. The game would make more sense and be more balanced and ordered if fighters lost points when all their bombers died. They'd start to protect them, and that can only be a good thing for realistic battles, as escorting the important planes, the bombers and attack aircraft that can make a difference on the ground was the fighter's role. shooting down interceptors was their primary mission, not fighting each other. If they did what most fighter pilots do in War Thunder, they would face a courts martial for letting the bombers die while they went off to have their duels in the sky.
Yeah well irl that's because you don't respawn in War thunder you wait 3 seconds and you're back in the air again, (Though I don't disagree with this as a bomber myself) that's just how it is.
P. Wagner that is not what we are saying. They could have at least put in some sound for the bomber. Just make the actors shout (realistic anyways). It doesnt have to be as loud as the real thing but this is overdoing it.
Actually the wings weren't removed and fuselage not heavily damaged When in my Fw 200 C-1 I can loose both my wings and still repair in 2 min (unsure for other bombers)
I got repaired a P-51 with no left wing, engine, landing gear nor elevator I made there pressing buttons like a crazy asshole with my nose almost on the screen and finally when it said 4 min to repair I almost shouted loud af at 3 AM 😂😂😂
@big ian I ran out of fuel once so I went to refuel but I was way too fast, so I was like 80ft away from the runway, but that was apparently too far away for the lazy ground crew to walk so I had to J out lol
20 mm had different ballistics than the 7.7, and they only had 60 rounds per gun on the 20's so it's entirely possible that the 20mm passed on either side of the turret whereas the seven sevens hit. depending upon a variety of factors, it's entirely possible that they would not defeat the armor plate.
Bartu Kuyulu mate have you tried landing in war thunder? Anything over 5mph and you die. Hell, you could crawl your way towards a building and you'd blow up as soon as you touch it
This reminds of way back in the day they had an Iwo Jima event I believe where the most advanced fighter the Japanese had were early A6Ms and the Americans could take B-24s. This was back when bomber weren't limited in number on a team, could take multiple cannons bursts, and Japanese 20s were sparkle cannons. Almost every single game would have at least one Zero ramming a B-24 to try and down it. It was glorious and frustrating at the same time playing on the Japanese side.
I absolutely loved the book, both movies were very good too. It’s a very emotional read, knowing it all happened and it wasn’t just to one person either, thousands and thousands experienced similar to what Louis did. War is terrible, it is brutal and horrible. But perseverance and inner strength prevails in the hardest of times, never give up, always keep pushing on no matter how hard it gets. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, and every second it comes closer than before.
Raptor G well, you do in fact have a hole in your right wing, but it doesn't really matter at that point. If you don't escape the aircraft immediately, you'll have much bigger problems to worry about in a few seconds, like the ground.

I like how there were tree's pretty much right up to the threshold of the runway, just knock them over with a bulldozer or something that extra 50 feet of clearance can make the difference.
@@JM64 Yes. Mass-produced bulldozers were commercially available since at least the 1920s and before then similar earth-moving attachments for tractors and other heavy machinery were readily available. During WW2 most American airfields in the Pacific were built and maintaned by Navy construction battalions ("Seabees"). Those units operated all kinds of heavy equipment, includng bulldozers, graders, power shovels, cranes, etc. Some of the models they used, like the Caterpiller D7, still have variants in production today.
@@ReptilianLepton yes but good luck getting them to the war when they were competing with over 50,000 sherman tanks alone for transportation. Thats not including all the other tanks, guns, ammo, vehicles, people, general supplies, ect. There simply was no room for a few bulldozers.
If you're wondering how the gunners were able to survive being shot multiple times by airplane guns; A6Ms (infact most fighters for the first half of the war) had rifle caliber machine guns as their main armament. So you could survive being strafed by a fighter plane. It wouldn't be high chances, but still.
@@thebighurt2495 the best thing the aircraft could realistically do for you is deflect rounds from hitting you but you’d be just as likely to be hit by a deflection from a round that wasn’t for you originally.

@@adamkhan4451 Well, compared to later generations of fighter. It wasn't until later in the war when the A6M was upgraded with 13mm HMGs, and we all know how American planes were covered in .50 cals. You could theoretically survive being shot with a heavy machine gun, but it wouldn't be high chance, and you'd probably be missing some chunks.

Potato "Have you ever been behind a bv238 in a early spit with only 7.7mm guns? You dead boii" Yeah, that's why people with a brain try to avoid tail sniffing bombers.
Louie Zamperini was a beast of a man. He shook Hitlers hand at the olympics, spent months on a small emergency raft in the pacific ocean that was on the brink of giving up, and he survived some of the most brutal japanese pow camps. Read the book unbroken, after they landed in this scene they counted over 500 holes punched in their aircraft.
He is the bombardier. His job is to take control of the bomber (after the pilot gives him control) aim the bomber into position, drop the payload, and give controls back to the pilot. That's all he can do.
Nah, being a bomber in War Thunder is like Finding Nemo where the seagulls are enemy fighters and you're the fish. Almost like people veer off from the other side of the map once they know where you are.
Why would they go for a wheels down landing with no brakes if they knew the runway is too short? Also annoying that almost all movies use low RPM ground version M2 sound effects instead of AN/M2s. Damn Hollywood.
R Kvist the fuselage would've completely torn up without wheels, having a high potential to "fail" the landing (not to mention the wings might break and the fire hazard from the fuel tanks / lines as well)
Bombers did wheels up landings due to damage all the time, in some cases it was safer then wheels down, like when there was a risk that the landing gear might fail (like in the video) or not deploy fully. Also they could have just ditched it in the water.
Many of times a plane did a bell down landing killing the ball turret gunner at the bottom of the plane as it didn't have a hatch to allow access into the plane
I am sure it happened, but if so it was because of damage to the turret not allowing the gunner to get out. I know on the B-17 the gunner would not get into the turret until already in the air and get out before landing because of the risk of landing gear failiure or other accidents on take off and landing. And on the B-24 the turret was retractable (and with a hatch) because it would not clear the ground while the plane was on it's landing gear.
You know that mission in CoD WaW where you’re in the bomber going between gunner seats? We need multiplayer games like that, some pairs of players in fighters engaging other players in fighters to defend the bombers, while bombers have 6-8 players trying to fly to an objective and drop the payload. AI flak on the ground firing up and hitting bombers that are too low or slow, or creating turbulence that makes it difficult to keep the bomber gunners aim steady. A fighter can get a shot through a bomber and take out 2 of the gunners but it keeps flying, and the other players switch to the other seats when they can to try and keep the defense up.
I remember this one time when i was playing as a bomber and i took out i believe 5 enemy fighters and was about to land but they took out all my control surfaces so i crashed into the trees just to the side of the runway it was both awesome and sad
Playing Bombers in Warthunder is like being blindfolded and being told within an hour at random somebody is gonna hit you in the face with a 2x4 bit of wood
Gajian should make like a bomber escort mission for realistic battles, and a mission where you control a B17 with other players and see how long you can do to make it back to home in Britain.
It would be cool to see bombers get a crew swapping mechanic It doesn’t make sense that some bombers have co pilots but those co pilots don’t do anything, and especially with the nuke B-29 As it’s a pain to get my pilot shot out but literally nothing else is damaged Very frustrating
I actually think that's the one time crew swapping is implemented in a sense. I would have to test it but I'm fairly certain I've seen my left seat pilot go black on x-ray and still maintained control of the plane in the PBY, and I think in one case the F82, hard to confirm on that one because it was in SIM both times. It would be nice for gunners to be able to move into the more important seats. It sucks when you only have waist gunners and both your tail and top or bottom ball turrets are dead.
Ussualy when i play as a bomber every single ace pilot goes for me and then it turns into a scene straiggt out of an action drama movie where i go down fighting or try bombing my target with myself after all key system were shot
Same I just starting playing WT but my bombers are in tier one USA and my hydro plane bomber dies so much after climbing a lot and I was right their about to drop the bombs
There was one time in war thunder that I was piloting a bomber plane that had broken wheels and half of both wings was gone during realistic (I think it's realistic as it's been a while but I was on first person at the time so I don't fully know what's going on) I decided to try doing a spin/spiral dive without any prior practice and somehow managed to land it at weird angle but it still considered as landing Xd

It's not quite what you described, but the game Bomber Crew has you manage a crew flying a bomber.

B17 in real life:Get shot multiple times and still keep going
War Thunder: one burst from 20mm and ded.
isnt this plane a b24? but your point still stands
@King-Solstice Your right, but I'm gonna start a debate now, because I think the B-25 have a belly gunner.

“rip my 500% RP booster”
That must be me.
1:36 this one too
The fact it took more than 1 bullet to make the bomber fall apart like it was made of toothpicks makes this unbelievable
B-17: known for taking heavy hits and still flies
War thunder logic: it’s paper and that’s a fact.
It doesn't matter what rank you are as a bomber your f--- when a fighter attacks
hazmat unit not all the time
Crankiebox 99 well it's happens a lot only once I have defeated a yak
Have you ever been behind a bv238 in a early spit with only 7.7mm guns? You dead boii
Potato maybe
Potato "Have you ever been behind a bv238 in a early spit with only 7.7mm guns? You dead boii"
Yeah, that's why people with a brain try to avoid tail sniffing bombers.
4:18 Ryan air landing lol
Brodie Gaming and Vlogs ikr
0:43 .... yep defo right there mate, well done for accuracy on that one
Louie Zamperini was a beast of a man. He shook Hitlers hand at the olympics, spent months on a small emergency raft in the pacific ocean that was on the brink of giving up, and he survived some of the most brutal japanese pow camps. Read the book unbroken, after they landed in this scene they counted over 500 holes punched in their aircraft.
Why is that medic/mechanic acting so casual while his plane is getting swarmed by 5 or 6 fighters?
Dick Lips he’s the bombardier and he can’t do anything
He is the bombardier. His job is to take control of the bomber (after the pilot gives him control) aim the bomber into position, drop the payload, and give controls back to the pilot. That's all he can do.
Daniel Silva and Astrain1 Still gonna remember that the crew still have some "medic" and "mechanic" around as part of them
Daniel Jensen that's the flight engineer, he mans the top turret behind the pilot and co-pilot.
Because he is a psychopath.
That's a Jingles landing on a good day.
bombers: exists
literallly any planes : ITS FREE REAL ESTATE
Get 1 shot on the tail
Game: you gonna left the aircraft in 10 seconds
Japanese bombers be like after a scratch on the tail:
*Plane rips apart*
Re-arm in 45 seconds
then you sit cringing as an enemy fighter tilts down towards the runway
@@aidanfrancis2193 lol that all ways happens when i land my p-51
Everyone else: "you got a hole in your right wing"
Me, an intellectual: "you got a hole in your left wing"
Nah, being a bomber in War Thunder is like Finding Nemo where the seagulls are enemy fighters and you're the fish. Almost like people veer off from the other side of the map once they know where you are.
And keeps crashing into the ground or eachother because they want kills.
I missed a message, *GUNNER UNCONSCIOUS*, when it says that I’m like: oh hell no!
normally dont like stuff like this but this was actually enjoyable :) good work
Real life: Can take hundreds of bullets and still make it back.
War thunder: Where is tail?
This is probably the funniest thing I’ve seen on RUclips.
I'm not even paying attention to the memes, all I'm thinking about is how I gotta see that movie.
What movie is it?
@@michaelhanson741 unbroken
I am your 500th subscriber.
Just a little thing I would like to see added to the video, Tokyo Drift at the end lol
Dude you forgot to add the part where the tail flies off after getting shot once
Not bad, he went from piloting a bomber to commanding the destruction of the resistance
The 500% booster loss hit too close to home
What is this madness a bomber in war thunder only last as long as one or two engagements
I killed 3 planes in war thunder and bombed multiple bases returning to airfield
But was me 264
XD
The gunner's mind who's injured at the leg: *there's a beast inside you. It will not die. It will fight back*
Man I've never been so nervous watching a plane land in my life.
Should have said,”asymmetric flap extension” and,”high speed retract gear”
Why would they go for a wheels down landing with no brakes if they knew the runway is too short?
Also annoying that almost all movies use low RPM ground version M2 sound effects instead of AN/M2s.
Damn Hollywood.
R Kvist the fuselage would've completely torn up without wheels, having a high potential to "fail" the landing (not to mention the wings might break and the fire hazard from the fuel tanks / lines as well)
Bombers did wheels up landings due to damage all the time, in some cases it was safer then wheels down, like when there was a risk that the landing gear might fail (like in the video) or not deploy fully.
Also they could have just ditched it in the water.
Many of times a plane did a bell down landing killing the ball turret gunner at the bottom of the plane as it didn't have a hatch to allow access into the plane
I am sure it happened, but if so it was because of damage to the turret not allowing the gunner to get out.
I know on the B-17 the gunner would not get into the turret until already in the air and get out before landing because of the risk of landing gear failiure or other accidents on take off and landing.
And on the B-24 the turret was retractable (and with a hatch) because it would not clear the ground while the plane was on it's landing gear.
the ball turret had to be in a specific way in order to be exited and entered so anything would go wrong
4 years later and it's still on point. Nothing has changed 😂
Please more, this is too good to not have more.
This is so fucking true at mid RB.
If it were germans, the entire bomber formation would be
KABOOM
i think he refers to the german 20mils in warthunder ... not reality
GAMEZ X77 no.there would be no Germans since they all ran out of fuel.
You know that mission in CoD WaW where you’re in the bomber going between gunner seats? We need multiplayer games like that, some pairs of players in fighters engaging other players in fighters to defend the bombers, while bombers have 6-8 players trying to fly to an objective and drop the payload. AI flak on the ground firing up and hitting bombers that are too low or slow, or creating turbulence that makes it difficult to keep the bomber gunners aim steady. A fighter can get a shot through a bomber and take out 2 of the gunners but it keeps flying, and the other players switch to the other seats when they can to try and keep the defense up.
Brings me back to CoD 2: Big Red One. That Liberator mission was perfect
nice m8
3:45 Landing Gear:Extracted Flap:Landing
4:26 Gunner:unconscious
god this is the best sense i ever seen so far such a good movie too
That was awesome! Gave me a good chuckle!
They seem way too relaxed in this.
I remember this one time when i was playing as a bomber and i took out i believe 5 enemy fighters and was about to land but they took out all my control surfaces so i crashed into the trees just to the side of the runway it was both awesome and sad
Bro would be hearing tinnitus all throughout that considering he ain’t wearing his headphones or head cap and a 50 is firing 2 feet away from his head
Imagine they made a game mode where you individually have to work together like this and your copilot asks what the flaps are use for
Amazing
Dieplop3 blyatiful
Oh look general Hux
Playing Bombers in Warthunder is like being blindfolded and being told within an hour at random somebody is gonna hit you in the face with a 2x4 bit of wood
Bro I’m laughing so hard at this
Gajian should make like a bomber escort mission for realistic battles, and a mission where you control a B17 with other players and see how long you can do to make it back to home in Britain.
Is that general hux as the pilot
shot to hell and still managed to avoid a Jingles landing. :P
That's only what flying the B17 is like in WT. Everything else, you go down as soon as someone even looks at you
Best subtitles ever just like a normal war thunder crew would act like
It would be cool to see bombers get a crew swapping mechanic
It doesn’t make sense that some bombers have co pilots but those co pilots don’t do anything, and especially with the nuke B-29
As it’s a pain to get my pilot shot out but literally nothing else is damaged
Very frustrating
I actually think that's the one time crew swapping is implemented in a sense. I would have to test it but I'm fairly certain I've seen my left seat pilot go black on x-ray and still maintained control of the plane in the PBY, and I think in one case the F82, hard to confirm on that one because it was in SIM both times. It would be nice for gunners to be able to move into the more important seats. It sucks when you only have waist gunners and both your tail and top or bottom ball turrets are dead.
@@thomasshively7338 oooof, Lemme know what you find out!
Very good representation but you forgot the part where a random stray bullet hit one of your two pilots in the foot and the plane instantly goes down.
Beat this
I get hit in the wing and my pilot is knocked out
@@captaingalaxy5265 🧐 I believe it
Yup, nothing like the feeling of seeing an uptight cannon fighter melt infront of your eyes
Ussualy when i play as a bomber every single ace pilot goes for me and then it turns into a scene straiggt out of an action drama movie where i go down fighting or try bombing my target with myself after all key system were shot
Completely inaccurate, my bomber dies within seconds of being in rang of any enemies. And yes this is after 10 minutes of flying and climbing
Same I just starting playing WT but my bombers are in tier one USA and my hydro plane bomber dies so much after climbing a lot and I was right their about to drop the bombs
There was one time in war thunder that I was piloting a bomber plane that had broken wheels and half of both wings was gone during realistic (I think it's realistic as it's been a while but I was on first person at the time so I don't fully know what's going on) I decided to try doing a spin/spiral dive without any prior practice and somehow managed to land it at weird angle but it still considered as landing Xd
Every time return to airbase this scene come to my mind, all my gunners red.
Lmaoooo the "freedom infused landing gear" at the end had me fucking dying
Forgor the part where you fly in a straight line for a hour
I almost killed my self....
I was drop from the chair....
monitor must be cleaned...
Hehehe, me too :)
The fart noise when the tire popped got me☠️☠️☠️
idk why but the "Press J to leave your aircraft" at the end killed me haha
