@50 person account experiment Realistically speaking when you attack a ground target from an airplane you have the limited field of view of a cockpit, meaning aim is not easy mode.
14:43 That's me LOL! Definitely one of my proudest WT moments, managing to take down a Modern SPAA with a JU-87. When he shot me down, all I could think of was "I'm not done with you! If I'm going down, so are you!" Was hard to steer the plane when crashing, but it all payed off :) It was a great event!!
That was awesome, I really liked how you, even without a wing and with fire, keept flying the Stuka and at your last second you dropped that bomb. You're a legend Louis:D
While enjoyable, this has a fatal flaw, namely that War Thunder is still a game at heart, which means that even the best SPAAG in game is still aimed manually by the player, whereas in reality, for example the Gepard would simply lock on all of those planes by Radar and then have the computer rapidly auto-fire most of those planes out of the air without even blinking.
i feel like unless there was some rule against it, nothing stopped that from happening, except that all the planes dove low as soon as they spawned specifically to avoid being seen until they were within their own weapons range. their radars are all modeled in game i just dont think they got a real chance to use them.
Most of those planes wouldn´t make it into gun range in that last round as a wall of coordinated missle strikes would blow the "swarm" to pieces. The rest then would be mopped up by computer guided guns and they wouldn´t even break a sweat.
@@auqanova The SPAAs don´t have either auto tracking, auto targeting or auto fire enabled in warthunder to make them more "balanced" in regards to their battle tiers. These vehicles basically drive around with both arms behind their back and one eye stabbed out as well.
Between the cinematography and the visuals, and music, this was emotional and amazing. It felt like the prop planes had soul behind their attack, doing anything to drop their payload on target as their wingless planes hit the earth in a fire explosion. Well done.
Jea had like something heroic, like a small unmodern country defending against more powerfull attacker or so and the pilots give all they can in their old machines to stop the enemy advance and gain time for the own people on the ground
Its funny to see how the tunguska just looks like the most epic war scene being under fire from every angle possible, firing at everything, shooting missiles and covering the sky in lead. Meanwhile the begleit: Ohno, my engine is red, i hurthurt.
So The LAV AD is no longer in service. It was disbanded in the early 2000's it was too expensive to operate and i personally think they should have kept them
That last round was majestic AF imagine if something like this happened IRL modern SPAA swatting them out of the skies and pilots flying feet off the ground to attack while the SPAA is busy on another plane… or the last ditch kamikaze out of sheer desperation
Goes to show how powerful CAS is. In many ground forces games the SPAA are outnumbered by 2 to 1 or 3 to 1. Here even modern SPAA couldn't stop WW2 CAS with those odds.
Finally, someone that understands AAs can’t counter CAS easily. If the pilot is really skilled, the only way to take him down is by another plane. AAs only work against mediocre pilots
@@schadenfreude1061 it doesn't help that players aren't instantly dead the moment they lose a wing or burst into flames like if they lost all crew in a tank.
The final Yak-9 losing half a wing only to spite the last AA in a final epic attempt is so par for the course of that plane. Nothing but epicness in the Yak-9's. The b and k are arguably the most fun.
Planes are so OP that biplanes take down modern AAs no problemo. In fact, 10 antiquated biplanes crippled a modern WW2 battleship, and the battleship did not manage to take down a single antiquated biplane. Either planes are OP AF, or every AA gunner in the world is a cross eyed relative of Major Asshole, from Spaceballs
I would love to see a similar video except giant world war II bomber formations against modern spaa like the defense of Germany or Japan or something like that could they stop the huge waves of bombers before they bombed them or the bases to Oblivion I think that you could do a neat video based off of that idea right there by the way your video quality is improving I am quite impressed with your editing
The thing most people don’t realize about aiming bombs and rockets is that it’s way easier to aim them in the third POV option The actual direction the plane is moving in is displayed by the prograde marker which looks like an O with handles on the side and top, you can use this to accurately aim any ordinance that doesn’t launch from a rail
This is a good video, it’s just that, a missile that goes way over a biplanes speed, and a biplane being more maneuverable than my dad dodging child support, that’s a big of for the SPAA, probably should’ve relied more on the main gun than the rockets.
They say that even now in the 2020s, the North Korean air force still has 300 or so biplanes. You never know, pre-WW2 biplanes versus 21st Century anti-air could happen for real someday.
This editing is really good and enjoyable. Your voice is calming. I’ve been watching you since wotb and now WT, I play both games. WT has more diversity and believe it’s a larger audience and more content for it. Which is a win win! Keep up with the content fine sir’
This was so epic to watch. I could imagine the panicked radio callouts and excited shouts of the SPAA gunners trying to shoot planes out of the sky and the determined grimace of the pilots as friends and brothers are getting shot down around them as they try and drop their payload at treetop level to take out the AA guns. Some in last ditch attempts holding shaking, battered, crippled aircraft in the air to make one last heroic sacrifice.
"It's really f*cking simple: I wouldn't recommend shooting at me because your gun goes pew-pew, but my f*cking gun goes- BRRRRRRRRRRRT" -some short War Thunder skit that I can't remember
This just showed the potential of drones, just need good video game pilots or AI trained by video game pilots, even WW2 planes can wreck havoc, they can wipe out the air defense of a whole division, that could be a game changer in a real war.
Planes not only wrecking SPAA, but also catching their own team in crossfires and bomb drops makes this feel like a truly authentic WT experience. Or, close to it anyway. Repair costs and all that.
Should be 1 rule with bomb drops, pilot needs to survive, maybe not aircraft but at least the pilot, unless shot down, only to avoid kamikaze bombs? Great work tho guys love it as always
This had the same vibes of the last Samurai, The prop planes flying into their last battle knowing they will most likely not survive against the progress of technology. the editing. especially of the last battle was top notch. The way that Big bomber came down was legit sad.
I am glad to see my suggestions implemented. This was great to see. If the Tor was implemented by the time this video was made, it could have shot out a fair few planes at very extreme ranges but would have been useless as soon as the aircraft close in. I have a few more suggestions. T-72B3 vs T-34/85. During their respective times of Service, the T-72 and T-34 were the mainstays of the USSR and later Russian armored forces. While there are more advanced and/or capable tanks in Service with the USSR during that time like the IS tanks, T-44, T-80 and T-90, these tanks are the backbone of Russia’s armor. Both tanks are upgraded variants of the Orginal. Given this, I would like to see how these tanks perform against each other. T-34 is a relatively small and fast tank compared to it’s contemporaries like the Sherman, Panzer IV, or Panther, so I think it will have a better chance compared to other Modern vs WW2 battles. Battle of the Fast Bois; BT-5 vs M22. Both of these low tier tanks are low tier favorites thanks to their speed. Thanks to the cramped 3 man crew of the BT and the healthy amount of filler in the BR-240 shell, both of the tanks are easily capable of one shorting the other through the front. I think the BT will have the advantage here since the M22 is a bit wobbly from what I have heard. Su-25 vs A-10. I think this one could use both a typical direct battle but also could use a comparison competition against ground targets. Load up an air RB map and see which aircraft is able to kill the most ground targets within a given time.
@@theocelotninja1028 all my favorite dogfights I've had in war thunder were with these two facing off. I think the A-10 has an advantage for a rookie pilot, while an experienced one does better with the su-25. However, I got dunked on by one absolute madlad in an A-10 one time after a long dogfight in my frogfoot, best flying I've seen in awhile.
Only thing I wish you guys did was just lob the proxy shells from miles out. Woulda looked SICK in replay. Other than that very cool video and fun to watch!
This was absolutely amazing, the cinematics, the explosions and gunfire, the music, absolutely spot on. The moment on 6:43 was literally the definition of "you wot bruv?"
I would watch this in Cinema. And i do not know which side would be the good ones in this epic battle. The Gepard with one last mag and then left with smoke trying to hide was a heartbreaking hero moment.
this was definitely enjoyable to watch, but i feel like they really didn't need to lose in that 8v30, they only needed to kill like 3-4 planes per SPAA which shouldn't be all that hard but its whatever
Choice of SPAA was questionable as well, everyone should have been in Sgt yorks, veaks, otomatic etc basically any proxy fuse system. Also add the Tunguska for the missiles and it’s fire mass makes up for it. Stuff like the gepard and LAV are just not the most effective choices at all. Strange they were chosen
Things started hitting differently at 15:20. The music just heightened the feeling of desperation even more. I could almost hear the "Fuck Youuuu!!!" as the AA gunners fired up at the planes and the pilots dove head first guns blazing at the AA. When that bomber hit the city though... chefs kiss cinematics as plane's fell from the sky.
Suppose the strength of the Stuka is to let them think they shot you down only to still take them with you, great video! Cinematically beautiful all the way throughout 🫡
"Modern AA vehicles getting absolutely destroyed by WW2 planes", or as it's also known, "literally every War Thunder Match"
ADATS vs forged 50kg chaika bomb
Yup, realism at it's finest.... because small arms and 20mm cannons can punch holes in the hull of an MBT

15:50 That was beautiful! Almost like a scene from a movie!
I love this challenge because you could do the last round like 5 different times and the outcome would never be the same!
So The LAV AD is no longer in service. It was disbanded in the early 2000's it was too expensive to operate and i personally think they should have kept them

Somebody had to use OTOMATIC it is literally destroyer of worlds... Could be nice to see but still great content, congrats lads!
It's the best spaa in the game, how can they miss the pizza spaa bruh, I'm literally sad right now 😔

There wasn't any then 4 months back but soon the Fairey IIIF Mk.IIIB will be added to one of the WWI ships and that was a design from 1917.
