Has the text on anyone else's radar screen shrunk down from the size?They had it previously and no longer changes. they even used the scaler in options.
I flew it out is AAB and GRB and it slaps, drop Mavs from the heavens, radar is awesome and holds lock very well for jets and UAVs, it's so fast, nimble, and the energy retention is insane. Let's not forget the $75 is also 2500 GE and 20 day premium account. The part that REALLY sucks is the armament, 2 sparrows and 2 aim 9s or 6 aim 9s. If it could hold 6x or 4x aim 9s and 2 sparrows or 4 sparrows and 2 aim 9s then it would be perfect.
If you accept that premium vehicles are are a part of War Thunder, then it comes down to the F20 being $10 more than the F5C....why are people making such a big deal? ALL premiums are overpriced in War Thunder. I mean if you can't afford it, that's cool and understandable. Otherwise people losing their minds over ten dollars more seems a bit over the top. If you say that no one should be buying premium vehicles, then sure, I would understand that opinion but that sentiment has nothing to do with the F20 specifically.
11.3 ?! there's an italian F-104 at 11.3. A plane that has the turning radius of a B-29. And only 4 9Ls, with a non existant RWR. That thing can't be lower than 12.3 with how busted it is.
@@Onezmhu 12.0 not 12.3 for one. Second only 45 countermeasures and while being a lightweight fighter it doesn’t have the performance of the F-16 or MiG-29, nor the range and capability of the Yak-141, or F-14B.
i like your opinion on how it is importatn on how much money you have. Nice video, I might get the f 20. My friend said it dogwater but i dont think so .
It just goed to show most war Thunder players still live with their parents and have no idea of what 'expensive' is. 75 bucks is literally 3 days of groceries at best, how is 3 days of food expensive for skipping the entire freaking air tree, saving litteral years of grinding. Honestly i think its a pretty good deal, thats why i bought the Mig23ML as soon as it released as well.
I don't. Not because its bad or sum thing,but i only need the F14A(100k rp left),14B,16ADF and C and i finished the US tree to the bottom 😂 I love my F4E in simulator even bought a talisman for it
@@patriktoth6258 So in my case it's even worse because I've already completed the entire American technology assessment and I really liked the F-20 but it is incomplete, I still know that it can carry the AIM-120, so in the future there would have to be a readjustment of the BR As for the AIM9M, I don't know if it used that missile but it would be useful
@@observador.555 IMO the F20 will be useful for its fans. F16ADF just can perform much better RN for air RB. And whoever got the ADF have the A which is good for ground RB. I just don't see the point why should i buy it you know
I mean It should be up tiered and down tiered like any other aircraft. Being able to buy something better than your peers shouldn't be the point of premiums.
The Aim-7anything is still a poor substitute for the R24/27 and will probably NEVER be on par with those. The performance will be the same issue as the F15 which can't guide at all and fly off dumb 8 out of 10 times. So it's starting already flat-footed with it's stable mates. It's basically an up engined F-5 with aim9L's which at it's BR makes it a 'clean-up' type fighter and not one you can go against it's stable-mates in it's BR. BEST premium in the game is the MiG-23ML if you want the most bang for your buck.
Yea maybe cause ur Emilie’s are brain dead and don’t cut ab and flare properly, they made flares heat up slower basically making every missiles buffed, the 9l is a good missiles but its no where near as good as the 9m, r73, magic 2, even the python 3
The people who bought at that price are crazy... 😂This F20 is a less capable F16 and considering its Br, it's clear that it's not worth it at all. It would have br in 11.3/11.7 I'm not saying, but this isn't.
Ehhh I’m gonna go out on a whim and say that it’s not worth it. When it comes to experienced US Tree players we already would have the better 12.0 and 12.3-12.7 fighters. The F-20A = F-16A Block 20 with less countermeasures, thrust to weight, and lower armament potential since it can only take 4-5 missiles if you take 1-2 AIM-7 Sparrows. Not only that but on the beginner side of things, starting off at 12.0-12.7 matches is a HORRIBLE new player experience. There are so many things going on atm that will overwhelm noobs.
@@InterstellarTaco i said its the perfect jet for people who want to play toptier 😊, and also that is not true a lot of dogfighting skills can be learnt in props and practiced in jets!
@hyiv wasn't replying to you. I was replying to the OP. Those same dogfighting skills you learn in props can be learned in jets, especially early jets.
@@InterstellarTaco Maybe but there are BFM and Energy management tactics and fundamentals that apply no matter the platform, and there also will also be a fighter that’s better in Boom and Zoom and a Fighter that’s better in Turns. Jets just simply make things more advanced due to the technology.
a war thunder plane costing more than most DCS modules is crazy
This guy deserves well over 500k subs

You can either have an entire AAA game, or you can have a reskinned F-5 that will be constantly down-tiered.
No brainer.
I got it like 2 weeks ago on sale for like 37 bucks and bearly learning how to use it
First day of the Patch got Like 20-25 free kils in my gripen on f20 Players the lowest lvl was lvl5 ..
New to higher tier jet gameplay your videos are really helping

You too used to Russian planes you fired an aim 7f at 50kilometers lol
Funny thing. Today i was flying f-16 and i saw on rvr f-18. It was f-20 but on rvr it is shown as f-18
Ye evrey time i See this Ping my brain can Turn of ans i Just yeet an aim9m at IT free xp😂🎉
The F20 has the F18 engine that's why it displays as the F18
@@grahamgodfrey4593its has the f18 engine correct but its showing up on the Rwr as f18 because it has the f18 radar. Same with the av8bplus
Should I get the f 20A or the f 5C I would mostly relay on missiles but also I have trash aim.
Yes it is pricey but this is my go to plane while grinding for F15/16. It could turn a little better though
its been alright also question how set it up where u can select witch thing u want to lock on to on the radar i didnt know u could do that
Ive just purchased it. Taking some time to get use to it
How do you like it after a month? Worth it? I already have and really like the Mig23ML so im super tempted to buy the F20 for the American tree

It’s a great dog fighter you can out turn an Su and f15 at 700 knots😎🤙
MaT!! Tem vídeo falando do f20 em BR?
F15 needs to go up in br. The F20 needs to either go down in BR or get AIM 9M's and AIM 7M's.
From my personal experience the AIM-7F is more reliable than the AIM-7M
Had both those missiles tho 😊
Honestly should have either been an even vehicle or should have been a 11.3 or 11.7. $75 is insane
Nahh not at all
11.3 ?! there's an italian F-104 at 11.3. A plane that has the turning radius of a B-29. And only 4 9Ls, with a non existant RWR. That thing can't be lower than 12.3 with how busted it is.

Think this should be a 11.7 imo
No to low 12.7 would be better for it, this jet is baller when used right since aim-9Ls can also be non flare hungry if used right
What should I get the m1a1 click-bait or the f-20
F-20
That's what I'm thinking bout too,atm. Kind of leaning towards the F20,though. See what happens later this afternoon. 🫡
@@bushman-2155 If you are going to grind a ground tech tree, grind Sweden or Russia; not the USA.
it'd worth only if it's on sale.

This F-20 is truly the best premium fighter in the game, but also the most problematic
how much do you

I mean It should be up tiered and down tiered like any other aircraft. Being able to buy something better than your peers shouldn't be the point of premiums.
I just played a few matches before work and I clubbed a MIg29, 2 F15s and a potato in an F14 in one match. Thing does really well if you use it right.

I spade the 23MLD now (TT Version,but with SPO15) in simulator and that thing is insane.
Can't wait for the 24's
Anyone know if the magics and Phoenix missiles perform as well as they did on the dev?
magic’s pull more in close range. Same for a lot of French missiles actually. Phoenix I can’t tell you since they pretty much disappear after launch
yes i tested both and they are fantastic except the phoenix had some lock on problems, but they do pull alot better and faster
This is not the best premium in game at all. Plus its missing Zuni pods because nothing american can ever be implemented correctly
if you buy from brazilian gaijin market, you will pay less. R$199 which is equal to 40 dollars. I live here and pre-ordered by this price
~ -75$
When I use 9L’s they seem to ignore flares😂
Yea maybe cause ur Emilie’s are brain dead and don’t cut ab and flare properly, they made flares heat up slower basically making every missiles buffed, the 9l is a good missiles but its no where near as good as the 9m, r73, magic 2, even the python 3
9L's flare resistence is pretty insane compared to a year ago 9L 😂
Whoever is watching this, do not listen to him and fly the F20 high. You will get demolished at top tier, 7Ms are a joke there.

This is the perfect jet for anyone who wants to play toptier and grind out US air for sim players :)
Not really. Top tier and props are different and don't really correlate. A good prop player doesn't make a good jet player and vice versa.

been wanting that thing for years, and they make it a premium..... what a letdown, and behind a fucking 70 dollars paywall. it's a full AAA game...
Its 3 days of groceries.. Work 1 single day more than you usually do and you can buy it.
This plane is only worth $5.99 not $75
It not worth 111$CA that is a fact
Tu é brasileiro né? K
cant afford
in what world is this the best prem the best in what? cashgrabing? there are better prems in game
No this thing is baller, and f-5 with an f-18 engine just the only issue with it is either the gun or u have to stony of an engine
