I really liked the small reference I found that link to a special event I went to at 6:00. The 2 Lancasters shown here are of the last 2 airworthy Lancasters on earth, one belonging to Canada and one to the UK. They flew together for the last time back in 2014, I remember seeing them together at the Eastbourne International Airshow, however the Canadian plane did not look as extravagant as it does there. It was a very touching moment back then to see them fly together in a peaceful sky that they had worked so hard to protect, and this reference here really reached my heart back to that moment. Its my birthday today too, thank you very much Gaijin, this is the best present you could have given me
Agreed with above commenter. I believe this has been answered before on hotline - because no plane can outrun bullets, and the penetration is almost set in stone, it's unlikely to increase penetration. I think they specifically said that it was negligible and that they didn't want to burden their servers with those extra minute calculations.
Italy is still missing their Lend-Lease planes…. However, I would much prefer domestic designs in the tree, but these lend-lease aircraft should be premiums.
@@Its_Me_Romano I mainly meant stuff like the P-38 and P-47 that were used. The prevalence of German stuff only paints half the picture and doesn’t exactly show how Italy was split by the war.
They also supplied all of Russias new steam locomotives and rail cars. This was in part how Russia was able to field such massive tank armies, with America covering so many crucial bases they could afford to focus on tanks.
So glad to hear your voice bruce, you are really old so was kind of worried you wouldn't be okay, but I'm glad you are! Keep making awesome videos with your great voice!
Martlet* Bruce, you said you got new glasses! Love the video by the way. Just a talk about the vehicles that made it to other countries through the US's industrial might and a little dealmaking.
In the 1971 civil war, Pakistan got some leased F104s from the US and Jordan along with F5 Tigers from Iran. Some of the Starfighters that came from the US still had that star roundel on it and a guy who's uncle flew one said that the he confused many intruding Indian pilots with it.
Canadian sub tree in the british tree would be pretty great to have, could finally get the CF100 and the CF101 voodoo as well as maybe the argus and some trainers
I love my lend lease premium bois, they bring a reliable punch to my Ground rb British tree. I have most of them and got my mark of distinction on at least half.
This is so interesting! The same with the Studebaker's truck frame and the Kastysha rocket system, when ussr soldiers put the Katysha rocket system on top of the Studebaker truck things got perfect
Hey Gaijin, an idea for additional aircraft. The B/24 is one of my favourite bombers, could you please consider adding the consolidated Liberator to the British tech tree? Or perhaps the Flying Fortress? Maybe even the B/25? I’d relish at the opportunity to fly a coastal command Consolidated Liberator in Simulator battles.
I also would love to see that. Especially since the RAF had some Coastal Command B-24's outfitted with a 20mm Hispano gun pack, RP-3 rockets, etc. While regular Bomber Command ones also had some early modifications such as having a quad browning .303 in the tail and dorsal positions. Such a fun aircraft.
Man I am fine with Lend lease in ground arcade and even realistic but lend-lease in sim just ruins it when I gotta worry about the panther dauphine on my team or a TV III
Captured tanks are fine, but other vehicles like the Italian or chinese m18 are harder to identify since the distinct feature is the slight difference in coloration.
I love the music in this video (less "Heavy Metal" and "Rock" and more "Symphony Orchestra" and "choir")! Please use more of this kind of music in future videos.
Why no mention of the real purpose of "Lend-Lease" (in real terms Hire Purchase) which after everything was paid back, made the US the richest country, and US weapon manufacturers the richest in the world
Here in Turkey (Turkiye) we were send many guns by both sides we basically had Panzer 4s and Shermans at the same time I believe it is same with aircraft also please more nations in the game :/
aaah,, yes, airacobra, my great uncle served in one of them, during coast patrol missions and after, he flew on thunderbolt, and died in exercise with a p-47, he was in free french forces, and didn't fight in a first time, beacuse he was put in jail from 1940 to 1943 by vichy, because he wanted to continue the fight
Would there be singapore tech tree? We made our own APCs with Spike ATGMs. We modified leopard 2a4s and rumoured to have 2a7s. We also used phantoms and AMX13s in the past. U could even add our coast guard vessel for Low tier coastal fleet as they are armed with 20mm oerlikon or our own .50cal firing the same 50bmg, the STK 30
On the topic of air vehicles Bruce… is it possible that the A-10 thunderbolt/ warthog be added to the game since it was created during the Cold War? Btw keep up the good work Love the narration
At 2:37 you pronounce the RN name for the F1F Martlet incorrectly as Mant:let , Martlet in British English is = ma: tlrt as in the old word for (House) Martin / swallow .
Q: Hello Gaijin, may the BETAB-750DS rocket be added to War Thunder? Or is it too unbalanced? Add it to the Il-4. Perhaps Up-Tier it to 3.0-4.0 if it's in the middle of balanced and unbalanced.
I wish we got more captured/lend lease stuff in game like other nations get 262 and the US Panther 2 and UK Panther since France and Russia got there panthers
Q: Why do I keep meeting ground vehicles at BR 5.3 when I’m playing at 4.3? And sorry if this sounds passive aggressive, I love War Thunder and everything that has to do with it!
interesting so the US saw a capitalist opportunity a lot sooner than what the public is aware of, lol best place to learn about history of the WWII with our lecturer Bruce :D going to watch it again cause that's how much I enjoyed it.
@@NeSeeger RIGHT! and than what about getting civilians to donate their pots and anything that's metal etc. for the war... was it more to help those make more money?
Hey Bruce, would you mind doing me a favor? Something is not right with torp bombers, I do all the correct steps, go to launch, but the never launch I play naval RB, using a B-34, and the tutorial torp bomber won’t work either. Mind checking in with the devs about this?
Lend lease aircraft have a special place in my heart, its cool to see aircraft of a nation with a different roundel on em
Its really nice to see the allies sharing their equipment

Please can we get a video on the Lancaster? Also glad your back!
gaijin gotta add the Tallboy bomb for the lanc
@@NOOBSLAYER-cw3gd maybe the 22,000lb Grand Slam Earthquake bomb as well. But that may be too OP😆
Well we did get the nuke so it could be possible...

Sweden had their own Catalina marine planes once in the 40s - 60s
Then there was a few B-17s transported to sweden and converted into Felix airliners
demn B-17 airliner
I do believe that Sweden IMPOUNDED all foreign aircraft as a Neutral Nation.
bro tked drifty 💀
@@mav5943 really gonna talk about drama in the comments?
@@ImAFatCheezIt yes. cry about it
Q: Do aircraft bullets fly faster when shot from a moving plane compared to one that is stationary? And does it affect penetration?
Better to ask this on a Shooting Range video, specifically the one later this week.
Agreed with above commenter. I believe this has been answered before on hotline - because no plane can outrun bullets, and the penetration is almost set in stone, it's unlikely to increase penetration. I think they specifically said that it was negligible and that they didn't want to burden their servers with those extra minute calculations.
I think Bruce answered this question. The bullets do indeed fly faster, but the gain in penetrative capabilities is marginal
@@revolver265 go ahead and search up the f-11 and rethink that claim lol
Relative the aircraft no, for a hypothetical stationary point Relative to the earth, yes. Idk I'm dumbashell
Italy is still missing their Lend-Lease planes…. However, I would much prefer domestic designs in the tree, but these lend-lease aircraft should be premiums.
True
They have the bf109, spitfire, pzIII, pzIV and a butt load of shermans
@@Its_Me_Romano I mainly meant stuff like the P-38 and P-47 that were used. The prevalence of German stuff only paints half the picture and doesn’t exactly show how Italy was split by the war.
why pay for a plane already in other tech trees?
So we can have more confusion in sim? Yeah great idea
It's so great to have you back dear narrator!
p39 Air cobra will forever be my favourite lend lease
You forgot about trucks. USSR logiscitcs was practically run on american trucks as up to 80% of their fleet was used made in US.
They also supplied all of Russias new steam locomotives and rail cars.
This was in part how Russia was able to field such massive tank armies, with America covering so many crucial bases they could afford to focus on tanks.
To be fair this video only really touches on aircraft.
Keep up the good work Bruce! So nice to hear your voice and energy getting better
GB:hey can you join the war?
US:No can do bob, but here have some weapons
Just leave it on Canada's doorstep they'll pick it up later
Ussr : comrade gib me some...
"They've got wheels, just roll them over"
Watching war thunder videos in 4K is like playing the game in the highest graphics setting
So glad to hear your voice bruce, you are really old so was kind of worried you wouldn't be okay, but I'm glad you are! Keep making awesome videos with your great voice!
Feels good to hear that voice again, seems like the narrator has returned
The Free French 🇫🇷 also flew the A-20J Havoc/Boston!
The most remembered aircraft in nearly every Chinese ppl who watches Sino-Japanese videos: the H-81 A-2, flying tigers (飞虎队）
wart thunder a game is now having a history channel

Glad to see you again Bruce !! 😁
My home town has a B-25 soviet bomber from the lens lease
A Canadian tech tree would be really interesting to have and play
Sub tree
Canadian sub tree in the british tree would be pretty great to have, could finally get the CF100 and the CF101 voodoo as well as maybe the argus and some trainers
The P-51 and its nickname "Mustang" stuck together Like hot glue. To this day. The P-51 as called is now named "P-51 Mustang"

Also USSR: Maybe capitalism not so bad.

@@t65bx25, it’s a skin.
@@seafirefr.4751 Do you know for which variant?
Best video by War Thunder yet. Glad the OG narrator is back
the music in the starting clip is "epic history battle" by glebator

Captured tanks are fine, but other vehicles like the Italian or chinese m18 are harder to identify since the distinct feature is the slight difference in coloration.
i mean, friendly fire was common and still common in real life
so i guess that's just make the sim more realistic lol
ngl only reason I clicked on this was the thumbnail great job to whoever desighned this one
Would be cool to see the axis Lend lease program. For yeah there was alot of shareing of planes,tanks and even guns with in the axis too
The 19WC is also called "the B-10B"
i always confuse players when i say yay lend lease planes
America be like: *MR. WORLDWIDE*
😎
Peepeepoopoo 😎👌
Dangit gaijin knows that the British b17 exists and even shows it at 6:44 but won’t give it to us

2:36 The Royal Navy called it MARTLET, not MANTLET !
Atleast it's not just me then
On the topic of air vehicles Bruce… is it possible that the A-10 thunderbolt/ warthog be added to the game since it was created during the Cold War?
Btw keep up the good work
Love the narration
This aged well...
Australian Tech Tree when!?
Yoooooo he's back!!!!
The Germans had their own system in a way, by supplying Bf-109 fighters to the Italian, Hungarian and Finnish air forces.
Dont forget Croatia
And Romania
110’s too
At 2:37 you pronounce the RN name for the F1F Martlet incorrectly as Mant:let , Martlet in British English is = ma: tlrt as in the old word for (House) Martin / swallow .
Will you ever add the PBV 302 or J33 Venom?
Q: Hello Gaijin, may the BETAB-750DS rocket be added to War Thunder? Or is it too unbalanced?
Add it to the Il-4. Perhaps Up-Tier it to 3.0-4.0 if it's in the middle of balanced and unbalanced.
This video makes me happy
02:52 G R O U N D . . .
Wonderful Wednesday.! Thank you Bruce.!
Can you do captured vehicle version
Can we please get the B25 for the RAF please as my partners uncle flew in one during WWII
I love the db7. Thank you gaijin. I finally are not poor in silver lion
Love these bloody video
question, how good at war thunder is the one who narrorates these videos?
I’m really surprised the game doesn’t have Soviet A-20s or British Kittyhawks just to name a few.
2:38 ah yes, the Mantlet Mk.IV
Could've been worse, he could've said manlet
Glad that Bruce is back
And Brazilians P-47D and P-40?
2:36 the British called Wildcats the Martlet, not the mantlet!
Fantastic. Loved this. 👍
Welcome back, Bruce!
The answer to the US being neutral is "December 7th 1941" as Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, HI
Happy to see you are good
You're right, we DO love money.
heigh ho heigh ho its of to war we go
Soviet boston makes me excited also American Beaufighter xd
when you ppl are going to release this video soundtrack
Always love hearing youre voice mr grant!
Nice to hear you again Bruce. Hope you are alright
Hope to see the Soviet Spitfire again one day
When are we getting a Dutch focus tree??
I wish we got more captured/lend lease stuff in game like other nations get 262 and the US Panther 2 and UK Panther since France and Russia got there panthers
The Legend! Bruce Grant is back!
I'm a little late to the fight, but welcome back, Bruce!
Q: Why do I keep meeting ground vehicles at BR 5.3 when I’m playing at 4.3? And sorry if this sounds passive aggressive, I love War Thunder and everything that has to do with it!
It’s the way the battle rating system works. You can face vehicles +/- 1BR of the top vehicle in your lineup
Uptiers
Welcome back Bruce
3:55 WTH is going on with the gauges, if I was in that plane id land immediately, that thing is broken.
what a beatiful video to watch, awesome!
thanks for the info
Can we get a video on German bombers or atleast on the messerschmit aircraft?
interesting so the US saw a capitalist opportunity a lot sooner than what the public is aware of, lol
best place to learn about history of the WWII with our lecturer Bruce :D
going to watch it again cause that's how much I enjoyed it.
With the amount of military hardware purchased in the 30's by the US govt were we really in a great depression?
@@NeSeeger RIGHT! and than what about getting civilians to donate their pots and anything that's metal etc. for the war... was it more to help those make more money?
looks whos back out boy

That soothing voice
Will separated heli ec br ratings be added to war thunder.
4:53 in the video is a SONY trademark
The game is free
Bruce!!!
Martlet! Not Mantlet 😉

is the aussie vegence you showed in the game? or is it a skin
