Fun fact about his skin in the intro, he's using a CVW-5 (Carrier Air Wing 5) skin, which is the air wing I'm currently apart of irl, I use a similar skin in warthunder with MY F-4S, which funny enough, despite being lvl 20, I'm pretty good at the game
Actually the following F-4 has those slats (in the game) besides this: both German, both Israeli, and the US F-4E (but not the J)! And I'd say that the new top Israeli F-4 is the best version, do to its built in gun and better radar; +AiM 9Ls + AGM-65Ds also with slats. Sadly I don't think the US tree will ever gets a "BIS" Phantom II, do to like with many US jets if u want the best of it, u have to look in other nations tree. Those who actually honored it.
I'm pretty sure the F4S has slats from a different program to the agile eagle. They are a bit bigger so you can turn harder but lose more speed. Unless I'm confusing it with another phantom in the game
I got killed a few times by this in my mig 29 already, this thing is deadly especially in headons if he uses an 7F and you don’t fly low to the ground. Definitely a good premium plane.
In a mig 29 you shouldn't be losing to this. The R27 ER is way better in a head on than the 7F since it's way faster. So long as you fire within a second or 2 of the sparrow you should kill the aircraft and make the missile miss.
@@cookiecraze1310 mate you definitely can die to it, a mig-29 SMT will get obliterated in a headon. 7F missiles are ruthless if your enemy is above 150m off the ground and they're coming at you, easy pickings.
I got it and use it for CAS. I mainly did this as a more SL effective cas since the repair isn't 13000 like my F4E or my A7E. Plus I've had pretty good luck in Air RB.
I've bought it and it's incredibly good for grinding. With 2 kills (and while still with the 20 days of premium) you can get alot of RP. Its Aim-9's aren't that good but when half the enemies are tunnel visioned you get afew kills. I've noticed the Sparrows seem to crit alot or ignore your radar lock and go for another plane. Whether it's a glitch or not IDK, but sparrows seem to love ignoring your lock on enemies and instead flying right into F14's on your team.
Navy slats are not the same as the agile eagle slats on the f4e they even look different when you engage the combat flaps, the navy version is clearly shorter. The kurnass turns better for sure
I don't know if this was a skill issue on the part of my enemies, but I've managed to win turn fights against MiG-29s on several occasions with this thing. Great plane.
I’ve been having some good games in it but as I’m new to top tier I’ve been having trouble locking the right planes. Is there a way to set it up so it radar locks what you’re pointing at? I have to cycle through a couple different locks before I get the right one and sometimes when I shoot the lock disappears even though I still have a good distance and angle on the enemy plane. Any help is appreciated
So my issue with this plane is it has some good weapon systems and a long range radar however, it only has a single radar mode that is subject to interference very easily.
I see no need for A6 when i already have A10. In the air superiority role, however, F5 is starting to feel a bit long in the tooth at the BRs im now running. This looks... Interesting
F-4S Is NOT good for ground rb for one reason and that is the pantsir S1, it can lock you out of spawn and kill you before you even know the missile is in the air
That goes for basically all CAS flying rn against russia. I use it for cas by low and fast nap of the earth flights and pop up rocket runs have don't we well so far. But yea russian a d german missile AA make it difficult for sure
even if you have one its a good purchase, if you like the phantoms and want one that is less punishing to use and simultaniously more rewarding, its still a good buy. Plus there may not be anything to research now but there will be in the future and you can research those really quick; it will either way be a great buy for anyone who likes the F-4 Phantom series. The only real downside is the lack of smart ordnance, granted if it had them it would be TV Guided so it would be shit ordnance anyway.
A type of radar, that helps distinguish enemy planes from ground clutter, and could also see longer range. The F-4 was ahead of it's time because of this radar. Pretty much all planes have it now
With premium, a victory and the fact I get at least 2-3 kills I tend to make 15-20k RP and at least 30-60k SL if not more. Definitely amazing for grinding if you have Phantom experience
I feel like its gonna be like the rest of the US premiums where u beg for a "downtier" in air RB. At least is a bit more than a standard copy/paste premium, tough u probably want to stick with the A-10s for mixed battles, or a heli.
the A-10s are honestly pretty shit and easy to kill, not to mention the artificial limitations on both of them that keep them from even being able to be good at their job. They'd be "ok" if they ever remove the nerf and correct them but its a US vehicle so that will never happen
How the hell do you keep radar lock 😂 half way through travel lock is lost and I’m only 5 miles away. In bright open blue skies. Or 5 enemies in front of me. And I lock the friendly off in the distance past. Pretty shit
@@brendanngin9939 Lmao have you actually flown both? The Kurnass definitely turns better. DEFYN covered it in his video. In fact it beats the F-4S in performance and armament
@@brendanngin9939The F4S needs a gun pod, and which if you take, will make its maneuvering worse than the Kurnass since the Kurnass already has an integrated cannon.
I can't understand the sucker mentality of younger gamers. there shouldn't be any dlc or add ons, you buy the game and that's it. additionally, i remember kids were savy with programming, breaking code, cracking games, building mods. what happened to that tradition?
Super late reply but… the game is free, this game is online so “cracking” just isn’t possible without being permanently banned. Hacking infinite health in Mario is not the same as hacking WarThunder gramps.
Well this plane is the finish line how to criple grind for US top tier jets for the US faction. After getting tru br10 with all those newbies and their f5c, Trams, A10a bomb loadouts now they will be even in the top tier. Newbies whic can not handle jet engine, energy fighting, aiming will now have added radar and the skill issue will continue. GL to us all to grind our F16s and F14s modules via 35-40% win rate ratio.
Good plane used by trash level 7 newbies. whenever i see this plane on my team like 12 of them i just give up trying to win knowing hey will all die early

Did you radar slave the aim 9H?
@@xorenmunich no I just use HMD.
Thats just sparrows for you, old technology was never that good, wait for aim 120s
the problem is its BR is so high which they will meet top tier quite often
and ofc because its premium vehicle so experience is also quite a big problem
The F4E also has leading edge slats and is lighter
Has no PD and Aim7F
Navy slats are not the same as the agile eagle slats on the f4e they even look different when you engage the combat flaps, the navy version is clearly shorter. The kurnass turns better for sure
Kurnass 2000 has best flight model with better radar and weaponry not having annoying gunpod
I don't know if this was a skill issue on the part of my enemies, but I've managed to win turn fights against MiG-29s on several occasions with this thing. Great plane.
Sound definitely like skill issue by them

That's just bc the radar really isn't that good. Unfortunately PDV radar just sucks lol
So my issue with this plane is it has some good weapon systems and a long range radar however, it only has a single radar mode that is subject to interference very easily.
Was waiting for this video
Haven’t watched it yet but the cockpit sight is nice
Could you do a review on the p-47D-28?
since the map is way bigger than before, A-6E is probably not a good thing to buy than F-4S
I see no need for A6 when i already have A10. In the air superiority role, however, F5 is starting to feel a bit long in the tooth at the BRs im now running. This looks... Interesting
A6 is a dog at turning, and only has a couple of decent missiles.
is it good for grinding
I bought it Monday and I’ve already got half way through the US air tech tree. It seems pretty good to me
Unfortunately, F-4S BR was nerfed and now sits at 12.0. Now I consistently see up tier battles which can be frustrating.
Is it still worth it though? I heard even mig23 can outmatch it
F-4S Is NOT good for ground rb for one reason and that is the pantsir S1, it can lock you out of spawn and kill you before you even know the missile is in the air

chaff. defending low. Missile leads you into the ground.
I would say, for purchase, it depends. Do you have an F4? Then no. If not it's a great premium to purchase.
even if you have one its a good purchase, if you like the phantoms and want one that is less punishing to use and simultaniously more rewarding, its still a good buy. Plus there may not be anything to research now but there will be in the future and you can research those really quick; it will either way be a great buy for anyone who likes the F-4 Phantom series.

What’s the significance of a Post Doppler radar?
eliminates ground clutter
Helps alot wiht using radar missles

@@WarThunderAce-ud4bynice pfp
@@F-15E_StrikeEagle no way man
Ik have radarlock problems in wont lock
Do y’all’s flares and chaff work? Bc no matter what I do I can’t shake missiles
actualy the f4f and f4e have got agile eagle improving more menuverability#
You just called the plane of my nightmares a 6/10 in dogfighting
Now im scared 😱
WIll it be on discount this summer sale?
Guess i'll buy the F-4S maybe with discount someday
I’m stuck in between the f-5c and the f-4s, ino what’s better ?
f5c, br is much better
good for grinding?
As all premiums i guess, imo better than a6 that had 9L's nerfed so theyre not so braindead now
With premium, a victory and the fact I get at least 2-3 kills I tend to make 15-20k RP and at least 30-60k SL if not more. Definitely amazing for grinding if you have Phantom experience
f-4e has those slats
It has a smile on the back...
I want it so bad, but don’t have the money right now :(
"excelent ground attack capabilities"
Is that plane you said prem and on Xbox?
is it good for dog fit

Time to buy!
So basically. You rate this the same as the ADTW, despite the S being superior...
How the hell do you keep radar lock 😂 half way through travel lock is lost and I’m only 5 miles away. In bright open blue skies. Or 5 enemies in front of me. And I lock the friendly off in the distance past. Pretty shit
Only reason i will buy it (on sale) will be lower repair cost. xD
There's no way this version has the best maneuverability of all F-4s. The Kurnass is way better
