Video Title: Rank 6 Premium Plane Tier List [War Thunder]
#warthunder #warthundergameplay #warthundertierlist
For context:
I like the F-5C as an A+/S- vehicle. Very good, but not absolutely perfect. AIM-9Es are what keep them from being an S.
J35A is a good dogfighter, likely a B or B- if JUST considering that (including its AIM-9Bs/RB24s), but it has barely any CAS capability, no countermeasures, and no tracers. It is very much imperfect. Not a terrible plane, but while it is incredible in terms of performance, it is lackluster in many very important ways.
Also, I play planes about 2/3 of the time in War Thunder, so, despite my RUclips name "Tankenstein," I play planes a bit more.
And finally, the Yak-38 would be a D+/C-, most likely. I'd have to think about it more, but it's like a much worse AV-8A.

@Achronic Deth S is the best, D is the worst. Everything else is on a spectrum in between.
aim 9e is underrated asf
@@tobi2233 nah, aim 9e's are just aim 9b's but with an uncaged seeker. They only pull 10g and can be avoided with very light evasive maneuvers.
@@exstirpo8120 that’s true but try them at high altitude and they do 20g maneuvers lmao
used the j35a to grind the latter half of the sweden air tree and 100% agree on its placement. The missiles are terrible, having no CMs sucks so hard and with the a10 and su25s lurking in 9.7 now I doubt I could even do the grind with it now. Thankfully I got the Viggen back when the mlds were coming out.
We really need a later variant of the J35 in game such as the J35J, gets access to CMs iirc, gets 5th and 6th missile pylons, has IRST, can carry RB27 and RB28 missiles which are licensed AIM-26 falcons and it gets RB24Js which are really good.
As someone who has owned the AV-8A from the beginning, it has had countermeasures for about a year now. It did not when it first came out.
Very cool name, though.

Planes go woosh what’s the difference I don’t get it
But which whoosh is best whoosh?
But wich one does most brrrrrrrr
Unless you're the a10. Then some props are faster then you.
Whoosh whoosh.
Energy retention missles weapon systems there is big differences like a F4 is easily gunna get killed by F16
Mig 21 SPS K when you get used to it I would say it is the 4th or 5th best plane on this list especially when played with one r60 with two radar guided missles with gun pods just be situationly aware and you can average 2 to 4 kills with up to 78,000k silver lions per game I went from 78k to 520k sl in 2hr
You are just like me fr
literally I run 2 radar missiles and one r13m1 instead of the r60 and it works impressively, I go to high alt and dominate high alt, with headons using r3rs, and if a teammate of mine is dealing with a scary target, I missile the target with the long range r13m1
Or if I am against su25s or a10s, I go up and while they aren't focusing I snipe them using an r13m1 from 3 4 or even 5 kms and if possible go for a gun kill
I enjoyed this aircraft a lot
and heading on av8a, f5cs and a5cs that don't know you have something called radar missiles
Well, I've been thinking about packs, so such a video on the brink of a major sale is quite helpful :)
Keep in mind the su-25 and t-2 early will not be discounted as they are new additions to the game and are too recent to go on sale.
I will not accept this J35A slander
I agree, but since they removed tracers it's so hard to use
Pros: It can cobra
Cons: Everything else
And I will not accept this Milan slender
@@joundii3100 Using the J35A, the Milan seems far superior.
@@mando_dablord2646 The Milan is awful
You could always put Flares with aim 9G's! on Av8A
As an F-5C main it really hurt not seeing it as an S Class plane. In my Opinion it‘s a VERY decent dogfighter and as a dogfighter alone it absolutely deserves the S tier. Sure AiM-9Es aren‘t great but they do work quite often.
Anyways: great Video 💪🏽😁
Think of it as the best of A Class or worst of S class. Still great! I love my F-5C too, but we can't deny it would be a much stronger performer with better missiles. It's missiles aren't bad but even being not bad they're still probably it's worst quality as it's such a great plane overall
It hurts more that you play that pos
@@forsakenshadow7655 why? If it's working out it's not bad. I mean, I have a solid 3.5K/D ratio. That's pretty solid and consistent for me.
@@PerriThePlatyPilot consists at being a pain to deal with seeming everyone and their mother wants to play it
@@forsakenshadow7655 huh? What are you on about?
I feel you weighted Ground RB capability at lot more than you stated you would.
The A-10 Early as an A only makes sense to me as a CAS option. It just doesn’t seem logical in an air to air comparison biased format.
If you stay back from the rest of your team in air RB then you can isolate and pickoff some enemies that are out of position. I've got a 4 kill game using this strategy with the A10
dude A-10 is an absolute menace in Air RB. You either die relatively fast (maybe 10% of the games) or you kill half the enemy team....use stealth belts, go head on and use your 4 aim 9l's....this plane is definitive an A Tier.
@@MartialFarts92 a10a early only gets 2 9l's
Thanks for the video. I'd already decided to get the F-5C but this cemented my choice. Please make a list for tanks too. I have my eye on the premium Leo 2A4 and the XM-1 to grind out the US and German trees
Definitely XM1 since u got the F5c
Have both and you should get the Xm-1 and a-10. Just my opinion.
if youre still on the 2a4, it's a solid tank with less mobility than the xm1 but a little better armor :) Hope this helped!
Xm-1 is amazing at 9.3. Definately worth it imo!
@@voidkid1159 but you die a lot to 2s38 though
AV-8A could use CM with 9Gs as soon as it gets CM pod - not long after introduction.
Mig21 really teaches you how to play top tier
Grinded 3 Rank 7s with AV-8A and SPS-K - always used the long range missile from above capabilities.
Grinded 4 Ranks 7s with Su-7BMK because it can kill A-10 with ease after getting a base kill.
You may of just saved me some cash there, I was eye balling the Lightening. Cheers dude... now if you could do one for the Tanks...
It'll be out tomorrow :)
@@Tankenstein you Sir are a scholar and a gent. Also randomly, you did manage to get me in trouble. Apprantly bursting into the bedroom and shouting "Tankenstein Here!" ruins the mood. Who knew.
You could rank the vehicles on how good they are on each tier. So lets say rank A. The best A rank vehicle is on the left and the worst is on the right. So you can have that A+ to A-.
Putting the flying Dorito at D tier is kinda mind boggling. B or C even considering no CAS option. The no tracers thing isn't a downside, it's both up and down. Once you get used to it, it's a non-issue anyway. And not telegraphing cannon fire is never a bad thing.
The missiles legit suck and no CM. VERY valid complaints.
ironically enough, upping the SU25K to 10.0 would be a buff, because then they can just pick off A-10 freekills
I don't know about you but A-10 spam is soo easy to fuck off with the Su25k, just fly high and dive on them, 3 garenteed kills in 20 seconds
With faster aircraft (and no more a-10 spam) at 9.7, its harder to pull that off...
i am precisely one of those people that would say the J35A desevres to be in S, but i also have multiple days of time playing the jet. it really is amaizng, ive gotten some 6, or even 8 kill games in it, its a beast!
wouldnt reco that anymore when it came out tho yes
@@SLAYERxX420 Why?, is it because of the lack of tracers?
@@markusjokinen394 yap and different planes added that fuck it
@@SLAYERxX420 skill issue I guess
@@markusjokinen394 nope the f5c does everything better and it has tracers
A10 should be S tier, you said it is a sitting duck but if you go into the game with just the 30mm and the aim9ls and climb at 20 degrees you can dive down on everyone and consistently get 3-5 kills per game and still have enough ammo to ground pound once you have bled all your energy
Everything is dead before it gets there 💀
@@sidtasker2937 clearly never played 10.0 air. Those matches can last a very long time
@rexxmen💪🏾spoken like a real pilot
@@rexxmen I literally do
@@tharealcalig7416 like a real pilot 💀 bro just pressing W to get in the air
"This plane is meat for anything that's decent, so.... A-rank," is the most hilarious, "I don't want the A-10 fanboys to get too angry," reaction I can imagine
The plane itself is a C/D, but the missiles are so incredibly ridiculous that, when paired with a competent cannon user, the A-10 can be ridiculously powerful. For most people, it's probably average, but it has incredible potential in decent hands.
@@Tankenstein The potential relies on your opponents being either distracted or below average at flying, though, and I have no idea how that translates to an A rating.
"You can bully people who don't expect your missiles or people who are distracted or bad enough to let you get within practical cannon range," doesn't scream A tier to me
While I agree with your positioning on these aircraft. The Milan is still the best option for grinding france. I used it to grind the Mirage2000 in 12 days. If you focus on base bombing it really racks up points. It's NOT a fun plane to play. But it hella gets the job done. Also to clarify for you, the Milan CAN take out an entire base but you have to use a custom loadout. You have to use the 250kg bombs and the 400kg bombs together.
milan is the only option to grind france
@@tobi2233 talismans exist
@@fraserhill59barely anybody cares or knows about them tho
I am grinding the french tree using Milan as a fighter. It's not that bad. You can climb higher than anybody with your speed and nobody is going to lock onto you. Then you dive between enemy lines and escape fast. You play like an F-104. Having no countermeasures is not a big deal if you play like this.
Sad Yak-38 moment
I would put it in B class, it's low enough BR that it can rush in and dump 2 r60s for 2 easy kills atleast. It's up near A tier for a ground pounder though if you can manage rocket runs or the space climb and nose down with guided rockets.
The old attack dolphin is pretty good grb, kinda meme in air rb but it's still fun.
I despise that the SPS-K got C when the F-5C got A. His biggest complaint about the MiG-21 was that it only has 2 missiles, meanwhile the F-5C also only gets 2 missiles that are worse.
well the plane is better bro
@@MrKamper_ only because it gets flares, that most people forget to use anyways. You don't even need flares to dodge the AIM-9E
Yeah, with the sps k you can choose to either have max 2 kills with the r60 or have a max 1 with the 4 r3
Take the gun pod and you can get 3-4 easily.
@@fate3071 i was talking about just the missiles
@@mil-mi24hind oh. Fair enough
Imma be honest, for me the T-2 Early goes in the A category, everything you said about it plus the fact it has Pulse Doppler Radar, making it so much easier to find enemies running on large air maps, or just finding them in general on Rocky Canyon, just sold it for me, not to mention it’s just a good looking plane.
radar that is completely useless if youre only using it to spot people. its more of a gimmick nothing else. the flight performance of the t2 isnt stellar it only carries aim9e wich are hard to use because they require good prediction (10g missile).
it doesnt have countermeasures at a tier where youre facing magic 1 and r60 and has horseshit retention.
its not a good plane at all
@@peniskopf653 plus at 9.7 you're gonna be facing planes than out-dogfight you like the F5C CONSTANTLY, it's not worth playing
Well , for most part I agree….BUT…..that A4 is (at least for me or my play style) my worst premium in any game. It rips wings like they are made of paper and if you take any ordinance it is very slow duck. On the other hand J35A is a little tricky to use but for me it is superior to A4. If A4 would still have airspawn, maybe it could work. But for most part I get killed , before I could even drop bombs.
And yes, my fav premium is also A5c. It is fricking SL printer with premium time. That plane save me a lot of real money since I was not able to buy most jets I researched because of lack of SL. So two times a year I would invest real money to buy 10000GE and later convert it to SL. But after I bought A5C and F5c on sale for 60 euro I never had to throw money for SL. Now I have Chinese jets 95% and in US tree everything except bomber line (currently researching B29) and millions SL to spare.
Love reviews like this wait for tank
A lot of this depends on your play style. I love the Milan and the SU-7. They have the power to stay out of trouble and slip behind the enemy to attack bases. You can stay high because of the CCIP. The A-5C is good but without CCIP you are down low after dropping your bombs. The GR1 has a much better bomb load than the AV-8. 5000lbs with the new custom load out. I got the MiG-21S to try and get better at Jet dog fighting. I love it so far. You can never go wrong with a Skyhawks but the repair costs are high for a premium.
Absolut agreeing for me the Milan is the best plane in the list it needs skill to play but i habe the skill and that makes it total op but for that i cant play Su-25 i think its boring and the F-5 is boring the A10 is boring
And i like the Draken
I have a bunch of those premiums, and overall I agree with your list. Just like anyone, I have some personal issues with that list.
First, mig 21S vs mig 21 spsk. They are overall quite similar, but I think the mig 21S is overall better. The lower BR is only a little improvement, but the engine gives it quite a lot of flight performance. One small but important note is, however, the 21S has canon CCIP and the 21 SPSK doesn't. This might seem like not a big difference, but it makes a lot of difference late match, when you rack up some ground kills. With the 21S you can shoot a minimal burst and can get much more ground kills with relative ease. IMO the 21S is marginally better.
The Harrier GR.1 has some glaring issues you didn't mention in this video. It doesn't have countermeasures or RWR. I personally dont have it, but whenever I encounter a GR.1, its my go to enemy, because they are quite easy to kill with missiles better than 9b or r3.
The SU7 has a worse bomb load than the Milan. If you compare them on strike aircraft grounds, the Milan is better. With the BR difference and one having 9b I'd put them at least on the same tier in the list. Especially since the update where the Milan can drop the tanks after bombing, and improve its flight performance massively.
Overall, the list is quite good imo. I also agree with the A-5C and F-5C placement, especially with your pinned comment. I also think that some jets on the list have a really high skill ceiling, like the F-5C or the J35A, but their spot in the list is earned. The F-5C can definitley be S tier when someone flies it perfectly, and the J35A could go up to A tier IMO, but for the average or above average player, the spot in the list shows their performance better. (the J35A is a beast to master, and Im not good with it, but I have seen what you can do with it, and its probably one of the highest skill ceiling planes in the game).
The gr1 is not a bad plane, but it is not a fun plane to play. You side climb to space and then third party distracted enemies with SRAAMS, rinse and repeat. Sometimes you get an ace and sometimes all 4 of you SRAAMS get flared. You're a subsonic brick, so if anyone wants you dead there's nothing you can do about it. I recently switched over to the T2 as my daily grinder and have been having a lot more fun.
With the GR.1 he also didn't mention that SRAAMs love flares. If anyone with countermeasures sees you launch, or notices you before you launch, dropping even one flare will stop an SRAAM with 100% certainty. Couple this with the fact that you need to get so close to use them and the SRAAMs are basically only good at punishing noobs or people that are tunnel visioned. Unless you can find an enemy you can get close to that has no countermeasures, but that would require a down tier and good luck trying to get that...
F-5C is rank S for sure it's a great plane if you've played the game for a while. Plus saying that you can get nice kills with missiles is true but wrong at the same time because most of your kills are from your guns.
lol i grinded my german airtree almost from scratcch with the sps-k and its very very good i had put it on at least b-class in comparison to the f5-c its still capable but the fact that it has to choose between cannons and flairs and chaffs it defeats itself for the class A podium.
The Milan and J35 are ok in my opinion I think they should’ve been in the C class because they have a quite a learning curve to them when I was flying them, I was able to do some relatively good damage to the enemy team
To correct your milan comment, it can take out one entire base with its bomb loads but unconventionally you must take the smaller 750kg bombs as they offer higher total KG of TNT than the 1000 lbs bombs. The milan became substantially better of a jet to fly with the dropping of its ordinance pods but it is most certainly let down by the lack of countermeasures and the lackluster aim-9b missiles. Overall it is a decent grinder but definitely a difficult jet to understand how to fly well.
Dont forget the r3r is good for head ons too tho when i comes to the mig-21's
People don’t understand that if you play the A-10 the way it’s intended, it is absolutely DEADLY in air rb. You can be new to wt and get 3 kills in an average game, and it being a premium, means you can progress up to and past tier 4 with ease. Overhated plane.
I'm kinda wanting to buy the Lightning F53 when it goes on sale, just because the Lightning is my favourite plane of all time and it would be cool to have a premium version of it.
Is it actually viable at all in air battles? I've only heard bad things about it.
Its ok, you can basically run away from r60M but you cant really fight all that well
TL;DR It is fun to be the god of the sound barrier in a down tier, but you will mostly get up-tiers that are just pain.
From my limited experience with the tech tree lightning, in a down tier you have fine missiles and are one of the fastest planes around. In an up tier you have bad missiles and your speed is nothing special, you will encounter planes that are: faster, more maneuverable, have better missiles, and better guns all at the same time. Unless you are a very good pilot, get the jump on them, or they are noob in a premium plane they will get you.
Regardless of up or down tier the guns are difficult to aim, 30mm ADENs just don't have a very good muzzle velocity and they are mounted on the belly of a rather tall plane which doesn't help.
Last thing I will mention which probably does the most harm to the lightning, at the BR or 9.3 you will have almost constant up-tiers to 10.3 because the F-5c is 10.3 and VERY common
I'd say it's easily the best high tier premium for Britain. The Sea Vixen is missing guns which is a pretty big downside, and I own the Harrier and I can't tell you how much I despise it, way too slow, way too maneuverable, and the missiles are unreliable and only work at 1.2km at most. The Lightning is way faster, far more maneuverable, and has a pair of nice missiles at a much lower BR. If you want an English premium, the Lightning is the one.
Thanks guys!
The video forgot to mention that it can go over Mach 2 when at higher altitude since it’s a interceptor. But players often fight below 4,000 feet in jets.
T2 is both fun and balanced, which is more then I can say for most of the other tier 6 premiums.
What I usually do for the mig 21 sps k is I take the counter-measures pod and I go pretty high like the mig 21 is supposed to go, I fire of missiles to planes and if someone is going for me, I use my speed to outrun them, and if they fire a missile, I counter-measures and dodge, it usually works really well.
Ok we can say something clear is no matter plane have br 9.7 or 10.3 bc in 90% y will got matched on 10.3-9.3. And F5c is the best premium plane why? If someone launch in your direction missile y can easily drop flares and kill him by guns, mk60 like r60 loves flares. If any plane on 10.3-9.3 has no flares will die very fast, ariete with his maneuverability have possibility to survive.
A10 is much better than su25 aim9l is much better than mk60, a10 is slower but can also easily win in dog fight against su25.
thank you I needed this because I'm about to spend a shitload of money
I still wish they added the T-2 CCV instead of the T-2 Early. Like, if you’re gonna copy and paste, at least add a small thing and make it cool.
Throwing my hat for the Milan. It's not great, but it's the only top tier grinder for France... and I'm getting the return of my investment. With the 10 French 250kg bombs (not the Mk 82s), it can destroy a base... if all hit the base. As for defending against missiles, I've sometimes managed to dodge several missiles, but once you run out of energy, you die to guns or to an all aspect missile.
ngl the T-2 also got a nice brrrrtt tho
me and my german mig21 accept the C ranking, it feels even better when I hit top scoreboard 80% of the time, each plane has it's own capabilities
A tank version would be nice too
From all planes on the list. Which plane are the most newbie friendly? Currently still trying to understand how tf flares work.
Edit: some people says i should just buy rank 3/4/5 vehicle. But the main reason here is i want to understand how tf flares work (can't figure that out when using A-4E early) and why i want to buy rank 6 jet is because most of them already have flares and hella cheap repair cost.
id say su25, good performance at a low br or the f5c
Newbie friendly rank 6 Aircraft? nothing... u need to learn from lower rank first.
Wouldn't recommend for a newbie to buy a jet it's just not it
You'd rather buy a rank III/IV plane
To use flares you just turn afterburner off and dump and turn. With planes without afterburner you just dump and turn. Flying in a straight line whilst dumping flares is completely useless.
@@semiedgv not always, some aircrafts drop flares in a special way, under the aircraft or perhaps above it instead of directly behind it, which sometimes makes it unnecessary to turn
although I do agree that turning is the better option
I love my GR1 SRAAMS are brutal just not flares but just turn of motor and wait your team dont go alone and you will kill all with this beauty missiles.
You know he hasnt played the a4e when wing snap isn’t mentioned
Both Migs C tier, J35 D tier, F-5 only A tier. Tankenstein my brother in christ what are you waffling about 😭😭😭
EDIT: Okay for new players and tank mains I guess this list is pretty accurate, but as a pure Air RB list this is pretty bad
EDIT 2: For people who don't know the J35 can hit 1350 km/h IAS on the deck which probably makes it the fastest plane for its BR. It climbs extremely well, and of course with the delta wing you turn like a beast under 700 km/h IAS. You can dodge most missiles at your BR except the R-60M and AIM-9L. But those 2 missiles are used by very slow aircraft so you can literally out run the missile. Don't go looking for a fight you know you won't win especially since the J35 doesn't have flares. It really is a hard plane to master but when you do master it it's probably the strongest premium jet tier for tier.
F-5C is A+/S- for me.
Actually a-5c is niw even better, it got all the balistic computers
pity as i play war thunder ground realistic 95% of time and i wanted to know best planes for GRB .. Ty for video and unfortunately 1 year later not up to date many many changes .
I constantly fight su25k's in ground RB. they are insanely overpowered, beyond even S class imo. They can usually tank more than 1 SPAA missile hit, even to the point of just flying perfectly fine too. And because the sounds in the game are still royally fucked, it's often that I don't even know there is an su25k until it is right on top of me.
Yeah Su-25 have a ridiculous damage model. I've fired 2 missiles at one before and all it did was smoke a bit lmfao
@@semiedgv I've seen my sidewinder get a 'hit' on an su25. Not even a critical hit, a hit.
I've always disliked the T-2 and considered it one of my worst purchases. Last night though I had the best match of my life in that thing. 6 kills before I reloaded and got another 2 right before the end of the match. It was just me for the final 6 kills lol, my team got annihilated and I turned the entire match around and won.
j35 in D tier ?! well I guess thats why channel is called tankenstain
maybe due its flares ,delta wing and slow 30mms,but it's kind of cool
I like the J35A, but it has too many deficiencies and isn't multi-role at all.
Bro no flares, no missile over 10Gs, wings rip hella easily, and it’s just average plane D tier asf. I grinded whole Swedish tree with it and was biggest suffer fest
@@paulbrown3302 the wings do not rip hella easy what are you on about. I have almost 3k/d in it lmao
Wah turn plane not rank good.
My thoughts:
F-5C : its 10.3 BR is way too much of a burden for it, since 9/10 games i end up on 11.0 or higher where its the 2nd slowest plane, and if I face with F-14s I get a Phoenix to my face 3 min after i take off, without even spoting the enemy or the missile from that range. (its RWR not reliable)
A-10A (don't own it) its BR increase ruined many other (older) premiums since now the 9.0 and 9.3 jets (like the Vautour, Senyang and Ariete) now gets sucked up to 10.0 like 80%, so FU!
Su-7BMK: was the plane that unlocked me most of the rank 5 and rank 6 jets and still the premium i use the most on tasks. Even if i get shot down i rarely end up without profit, after some bombing.
Su-25K: pre ordered it, flew it 2 times, was OK, and than i realized that i don't really need it do to i use 2 Mi-24 as CAS on 9.7.
Harrier GR.1: I brought a year ago, after i already got the GR.3 spaded and i loved that. i hate the GR.1 and i have a 90% fail rate on the SRAAMs, so i fly it as a fulltime bomber to make some use of it. Also not even has RWR!
J35A (don't own it; yet) I was planning to get it, but after some games with the SK60 I realized that I must have tracers for the 30mm Akans to hit ... anything! And non of the belts has it anymore so... EHH
A-4E: without the air-spawn, as a bomber, with a full load it wont even gets to the zone, before gets killed. Can work as a fighter with only AAMs, but that's not what i payed/brought it for! + I refuse to spawn on 9.7 with it ever again, except on those very large maps, where i can sneak by and get killed by AA later (those R OP now)!
Ariete: (nope) why its even a rank 6 on 9.3? (should have gone down with the Sabers, its the same recipe)
A-5C: (my favorite hangar decoration - no crew rank for it) serious identity crisis! + some says it supposed to have some kind of ballistic computer. IDK.
Milan: I'll still buy it, when it goes on sale. I mean; how much worse it could be than the Vautour, on 10.0? (9.0 games almost don't exists)
ngl but 90% fail rate with sraams means your definitely using it wrong only way sraams fail is if you try to fire like almost head on at like 0.7km which at that point won't turn anyways your asking it too much to do or flares but at that point you need to disengage to re-ngage when they are not paying attention no point trying to chase down a target still using flares wastes time and fuel
@@duc1755 SRAAMs R not all aspect so no head-ons at all. I try from 1km but no luck, and since it takes 2-3 sec (yes really that long) to get a lock; any closer i just use the guns. Seriously; SRAAMs on a plane that can't turn; typical British incompetency!
@@TomPrickVixen they are not but pick up side aspect and in some rare instances virtually almost head on situations if afterburner is hot enough and actually they can turn just played today and picked up 3 easy kills seems like you don't know how to use them
your F5-C comment sounds like a skill issue tbh. i would love if it got lower br cuz then i would dominate even more the plane is very strong
what i dont like when playing draken right now is there's no tracers
but i often win every 1 vs 1 dogfight with this plane
A4E has CCRP for bombs so you can drop bombs from high altitude.
The American AVA8 is highly under estimated I can easily dog fight F4j phantom an mig 21s
speaking of defyn... he does good stuff, but i have noticed he'S been getting more and more unruly with aggression and anger. unfortunates really as he was very calm.
Milan is not a bad grinder. Sideclimb with bombs, drop them all on a base and then go kill or go back to base to reload. Not fun, but not a bad grinder pretty consistent I'd say. With the automatic jettison you have a good bomber and then a really fast fighter.
I can assure you that the Mig-21 and the G-91 for Germany sux really bad xD
Shame how dirty he did the ariete that's easily my favorite premium jet I've got
The lightning slander is crazy and bro says it only goes Mach 1 which is def incorrect. And he complains about the J35 not having tracers….. just get good with the aircraft/cannons and you won’t need em.
You can destroy a whole base with the Milan but you need to create your costum load out. It’s an amazing plane for bombing and running but it’s not a good fighter.
If each one of those jets is $60 USD, then there is $900 (more after tax) of jets there if they're not purchased on a discount. No wonder War Thunder makes life hell for free to play people.
s25 k or a 10 u can go air sim farm ground ai targets and earn 200 000 per hour if u have active premium
not putting F5C on S yikes.
It was close. A+/S- for me. If the website I was using allowed for me to place them between categories, that's where it would have been.
@@Tankenstein need more categories! over fitting! have 10 categories! 1 per plane! (makes it into a ordered list) lol p;
@@smippycis6285 F-5C is opposite with the AV8A kind of The Av8A is all about flares and Missiles with good acceleration. The F-5c Is all about performance The Missiles are trash to the point it lost a lot of its bang. I still do well in it but if I was new to f-5c I don't see it being as easy to use in match's as in the past!
@@Tankenstein Personally I think The AV8A is better than the f-5c by a lot. I get 10+ kills with it often in Arcade And my top with it in arcade is 22 - 0 with AV8A and in Air RB Its pretty easy to get 2+ kills and take out ground targets then refill and reengage the acceleration is amazing even though the top speed isn't and so many flares Only Issue is you get 2 missiles then need to land but if you do not mind landing and reload But The Canons are strong once you get used to the Trajectory and arch small Burst you can easily get 2 more kills from canons on top of the 2 from missiles.Av8A holds its own.. AV8A would be s tier for me before f-5c but both are in my 10.0 and 11.3 line up. Av8A holds its own in top tier and that's a 2+ BR up tier. I switched out my F-4c for the Av8A in My Air AB line up.
A5c is a beast. Love it.
J35A is a mess. At beginning it had gun tracers but it was taken away.
A4 early is great to grind Israel. Just use it in sim battle.
So the su25 can go 900km/h. Riiiiight. Given that the DCS version starts to shake itself apart at 650, and yes, that’s another ‘game’, but it is considered a study sim. Of course, it may be wrong. But not by 250km/h! Gaijin has some dodgy people in it, not all of them but some, so Ruzzian bias is a thing sometimes. Not as much as people say when their shots bounce off a KV1, maybe, but they definitely give the orcs the benefit. When, say, the British have the opposite problem, the assumption is always for worse performance rather than better. And I don’t really play Britain all that much, it’s just something I’ve noticed. Consider the T80. The specs match what the Kremlin has told us, but IRL they brew up as soon as anything looks at them. Anyway. Great review, thanks.
I can’t believe that you put the Ariete over the Milan. There’s absolutely no reason for it and the Milan definitely is better than the Ariete
some people will mald very hard that A-10 isn't in S tier.
I wish I had bought the f5c but honestly I’m happy with the av8 the missiles just feel so cheese sometimes and it just doesn’t even feel like a deserved kill I like gun fighting so much more
Guessing you forgot that gaijin recently give the A-5C ccip for guns rockets and bombs so it got better
Will there be a similar list for rank 6 Premium Tanks?
yes please. I want this too. This was a great video for aircraft, we need one for tanks
lmao the F-5C is legit the best premium jet to buy
True but when NPCs buy it it becomes useless
@@sidtasker2937 makes it even better, people think your a useless noob then you out fight them
I love dog fighting the su25 in my a10 cause they always try to turn fight me lmao
So true lol
@@MenesesInc su-25 has better high speed manouverability but a-10 has better lower.
@@sidtasker2937 I have experienced this myself
If your flying a lightning low alt then your playing it wrong its a high alt interceptor and in air rb at 20k ft plus it will go almost mach 2 exact number is 1.90 before it rips but that is plenty to chase down f104s
27:59 Me who got 3 kills and 2 assets with guns and missles in my first match with the Draken, Draken, Draken after coming from rank 2 US tanks and rank 1 US air and navy.
So that was a big compliment thank you made my day! Which pro tip you actually don't need tracers/skill to ht things as you can lock on with the radar and simply aim in the green lead circle like your playing DCS world with a modern jet.... Makes alot of sense in hindsight as no tracers allow you to be sneaky and it matches the air combat theory of the era it's from.
they got rid of lead indicator ages ago it doesn't work anymore
@@duc1755 I only just found it like a week ago.
Your f5 vid made me get the f5 and I love it! Keep up the good work
How can you say the T2 is any good but the lightning isn't? lightning is 9.3 not 9.7 and it gets much better missiles, plus the T2 is actually SLOWER in a straight line - it never goes fast enough to rip it's own wings off. It's literally the lightning but worse in almost every aspect AND it's higher BR?? easy f tier, should never be played
I just got the j35 and it is amazing you can out turn everyone and you mainly go up against a10s and can get easy kills I’ve gained 600000 Sl in one day with it
I would like to say the su7 BMK is god awful for anyone looking to grind. No more air spawn, pathetic bomb load, and very hard to fly compared to anything else in the ussr but other SU-7’s
Ariete is S tier for sim, however, it's almost useless at 9.3 in air rb - two engines often catch even aim9b's side aspect, not even talking about aim9l or r60m.
A4e can carry massive load out with strong wing.... wing rips when you only have missiles equipped
J35A is my best plane i get at least 3-4 kills a game it made climbing to the ja37c and breeze it takes a lot of skill but once you get use to no tracers it’s really good it’s not useful team wise as I usually I usually 1v3 bc I’m the last man standing which means I did nothing for my team but uh fun.
The A4E DOES have CCRP, just not CCIP. That's a ballistics computer.
Brother you can not put the mig21s in C and then drop the draken in D. I have them both and there is shot in the worl the mig21s is even in the same ballpark of capability in ARB
mmm love the sale for the packs not being on xbox wonderful!!!
Can you make a video on how to properly use camouflage? I’ve had trouble finding good videos on how to use camouflage, especially since most show or are for top tier tanks. I’m nowhere near top tier, only rank 3 but I’m trying to get into ground RB however I don’t know how to use/apply camouflage, and which ones to use. I’ve wasted about 2500 GE. Idk if this’ll be seen but if you do make a video, I think it might help a lot of people
There is no real strategy to it. People spam bushes to obscure the outline of their tank or hide weak spots. Either way, its just bush spam which i believe gets negated by thermals anyway.
@@silentascari2180 well I also kind of spam it, but when comparing to the surroundings it’s pretty ineffective, I’m just trying to know what areas are the best to cover and if I should cover the top of my tank
From what I’ve seen as much in the front as possible so enemies only see a barrel sticking out of a large moving bush.
It’s a fairly toxic strategy though, tbh.
f5c and ariete S tier. First of all the F5c used by a skilled player can outperform every single mig21 other than mig21 bis. You keep your speed use your exellent eneegy retention there isnt much they can do. Aim 9 E s are actually totally underestimated and the gun balistics of the f5 is just one of the best in the game handsdown.
Ariete a gunfighting god can even hold his own against multiple oponents. The only downside is getting ganged by multiple missles.
Hi Tankenstein! I wanna ask about countermeasures and how best to use flares n chaff, i see all the options for countermeasure types like all the time between launching each series n period between series etc. Please!
Mannn they're REALLYYY gotta add the Canadian AVERO ARROW in this gameee massively missing that plane would easily give any of these planes run for their money if not the tomcat itself 👏👏 twin engine beast too bad Canada didnt go thru with its aviation as much as it could have real shame v.v
Harrier is dedo d teir and I main it. The srrams got nerfed only usefull under 700m realistically and no flares terrible ability to maneuver and poor speed
Put MIG21S S Tier its soooo GOOOOOOOD
Should i buy the mig21s over the su25k? Im really hesitating between the two of them.
I recently bought the D5H2t and I actually think the missiles are solid
Gotta outrun the missile in the spsk, always offense
Hello i would just like to know wich premium plane is the best to grind usa :
The F5-C or the F4-S
Adens on the Lightning aren't mediocre.. it's the bad placement. On the hunter with good placement they're insane
At the same times A10 is not a fighter aircraft it’s a ground attack aircraft it wasn’t made for fighting you can’t judge it because it doesn’t have those capabilities that’s not what it was made for😂
Thanks to you, the great one, we are able to know information beyond our borders. Thank you again.
