Naval player here.Cas in naval isnt really a problem so maybe the firecrest is fine IF you fricking face an AA ferry,Firecrest is kinda good in bluewater fleet even though i dont even play that plane because low tier bluewater is the one with the least AA so you probably gonna havee a blast
One vehicle I wish will still come to WT is the Lockheed AH-56 Cheyenne, as it was part of the massive vehicle leak on the dev servers back in the summer of 2021.
Firecrest slander will not be accepted, the M3s are great at setting fires and the performance is nuts for 2.3. B+/A- tier you just simply need to be skilled
The firecrest is genuinely one of the best aircraft in tank RB. All of the german open topped and panzer tanks with 10mm of roof armor make it very effective at cas with some of the best dogfighting performance for a plane equipped with more than one 12.7mm
And for the 262 A1a/U1, with the all the cannons in the nose, set different key bindings to each of the cannons. That way you have control over which cannon (specifically the 30mm) gets used for what. I always refer to the MK103 as the good 30mm. The MK108 is good for planes, nothing else.
I chuckled when you said the fire extinguishers for the harrier is useless. Fire extinguishers really do just suck unless you get really lucky and manage to survive, preferably in something that has a second engine. I can never rely on it for anything. I do have to admit that in the rare case that it does actually save you, it is nice. though.
If i may add, the F-5E CU should be in a tier above S though the reasoning is a little niche. In Sim battles, this thing is a literal god. Something not mentioned in the video is the RWR it has access too, being a NATO IFF RWR. For those unaware that means it tells you the plane type pinging you, so "F4" or "M2K" or "F14" etc. The advantage this gives you in the air Sim game mode against NATO planes in immeasurable. This alone essentially gives you absolute impunity to fly around the whole map with your radar off and able to sneak up on all enemies, tracking them with an insanely good RWR. With its ability to out perform every plane in its BR for flight performance and even punch up to 11.7 against the M2Ks... its incredible. Granted the RWR doesn't really serve a huge advantage other then ground RB for detecting incoming enemy planes and AAA, and in Sim. Though personally.... I'd give it S+
The single sim main has arrived. No seriously, that's awesome to hear and it's on my radar now. I love Sim, but I also love gimmicky/toy jet fighters like the 104, Buccaneer, and MiG-23BN. The lack of functional radar on two, and useless RWR on the MiG makes knowing what's up really hard.
@revolver265 hell yeah. I exclusively play high tier sim now and I can't recommend the F5E-CU enough. Pair the killer RWR with its python 3s and all aspect aim9P4s... it's a literal monster. 20-30 kill games are common after you really get used to it.
I’m currently grinding the T-90S BISHMA because A: I love the look of the T-90S and don’t want to grind through Russia, B: because they don’t even have a T90S, and C: because it fits perfectly in my favorite urban warfare setting: Syria.
I actually feel that the 262 is very strong for air realistic, it gets an air spawn and can just about get on the same level as SU-11s, the cannons are a bit funny because you get 6 of them, they spread out a lot and they deal a lot of damage so all you have to do to get a kill is lead them in the rough direction and just spray, even if only 1 shell hits it will atleast crit the other guy and the flightmodel isnt even that bad as long as you avoid furballs and boom and zoom
Air RB player here I'm a big german WWII plane enthusiast and most 262s get the mk 108s which are good on planes just not fast moving jets the mk 108s are only ever really great if you get the jets slow otherwise they are very hard to hit. The mk 108s do decimate anything you hit tho with universal belts c: you might not do much dmg with default belts tho. But the mk 103s have amazing ballistics and if you know how to fly the 262 the mk 103s are a huge upgrade from the mk 108s
my first Squadron vehicle was the 262 and at first. i hated it it was clunky slow and i was constantly fighting things that i had zero way to counter. but now since its 7.3 it fits SEEMLESSLY into my 7.7 german lineup and ive done much better in ground RB working as a Semi-CAS/Anti-CAS role. and i have to say, its my best jet so far, and i own the F-4S
minor error, the Swiss Hunter 58 has AIM-9Ps, not AIM-9Js. Its such a minor difference that it doesnt matter, but the Ps can be slaved to the radar so that can be useful
Use it in head-ons. It shreds anything, so you can basically get 2-3 kills at the very start of the game, and then do that again. Thus, you can grind events pretty fast
The Me-262 is easily A tier imo. It's by far the best CAS around its BR, and you can very easily destroy tons of open top or weakly armored enemies, while having the agility advantage over something like a Do335. If you want to cannon CAS, the squadron 262 variant is definitely the ultimate WW2 airplane.
I think the me 410 br 5.0 is overshadowed, it has the same guns with 240 ammo pool with decent agility and twin 13mm cannons at the back that shred anything
Genuine hot take maybe, but i quite enjoy the firecrest. Back in the day, it was criminally over brd, at i think 3.3. Even then it had a pretty strong engine, but now at the lower br, the engine is very good, M3 .50s are very good with the higher fire rate and better damage, and it still turns fairly decently
I used the Sea Harrier for grinding to British top planes. Due to the very good low speed thrust you can climb quite well and drop Aim-9Ls on low flying enemies that don´t see your missiles coming. I often got 2-3 kills right after the start of the match just because I launched missiles at the enemy base bombing train
The M901 can actually be pretty good in niche situations. Say you've got a match where each team has their own cap point and the map has some good short cover. You can find an advantageous position overlooking a route the enemy will travel down in large numbers and pick off quite a few of them and then scurry back to the cap to rearm. Using the Su-22 for CAS, I tend to prefer the bombs. Iirc you get bomb CCIP which makes aiming them easy. I don't personally have this aircraft but I have the Su-17M2 which is more or less identical when it comes to CAS. An extra advantage of the Bhishma you didn't mention is that while it lacks the Shtora-1 soft kill APS, it gets extra ERA modules in their place which can actually save you once in a while. It's kontakt-5 with iirc 150mm of KE protection which can make the difference between some darts penning you or not. While the M1A1 AIM doesn't get a commander sight at all like most other M1A1s, you do get thermals in the M2 Browning sight when you select it as primary weapon. It's that little circular thing mounted next to it on its mount. This can be used as a makeshift CITV in some cases.
me262 a-1a/u1 is great for air RB in my opinion. when spaded you can do some decent maneuvers and avoid gunfire, but most importantly the guns here SHREAD anything it comes in contact with. a single well placed 30mm shot can oneshot a aircraft, and you got almost 300 shots of them. you can esally stack up kills with this aircraft
personal best 4 planes 5 tanks and 5 assists after I fully researched all of the equipment. I love the plane but only if you manage to carry the speed above 500kmh you can do decent things but if you drop under that you are done. Hit and run tactics work like a charm.
Just to Think about that the BMP2 can Launch atgms while driving is insane, as example, when they took that ability away from the Type 87 broke the Back of this vehicle
If more tank destroyers got scouting, imagine, someday they fix Khrizantema S’s ground radar and its BMP3 hull hydraulic suspension, then add the scouting to it. Even its got from 9.7 to 11.0, even 11.7 after those buff, it still can do wonders
5:28 "You only need to deploy 1 or 2" *Meanwhile me spamming the whole f-ing 12 for a mf Aim9 to dont even care at all and insta kill me:* "Nice logic snail... Getting your brain to the speed of the animal representing you"
I think the grenade launcher on the BMP-2M is actually kind of a balancing feature. The ammo for it is stored right on top of the turret which makes it a pretty easily kill when one of these is hull down. When playing it I've actually tried putting this theory into practice by emptying the entire GL ammo before going into battle and it made a small but noticeable difference in survivability. I am quite fond of it but it's not my favorite IFV. Lynx is better imo.
You forgot, for me a big advantage on the BMP-2M. Because it can lock onto enemy aircrafts and kill them with its main or just shoot one of its 8 ATGMs (4×2) which surprisingly hit quite well even onto moving planes if they don't manoeuvre that much. I know you just forgot to mention it but that's why I made this comment, to let others know it can lock onto enemy aircrafts.
Imma be honest, I thought Zoltan stole this video idea from another CC only to realize that Zoltan stole the idea from none other than Zoltan himself. The deja vu was hittin
Important note about the M901, since it is a M113 chassis and Gaijin hates it, it will struggle to go up most inclines your normal tanks might, keep that in mind too. (Also it should be W-E tier)
As an A10 player, I take offense to saying the Harrier is gonna make people upset with its speed. It's faster than I am. XD lmao, much love, great video.
I knew I saw this video somewhere! I was looking for it last 3 days cause I'm about to start my next research and couldn't find it, thought I was delusional
It was very odd to see the firecrest be trashed this way. It’s very versitile and is a CAS plane that turns into a very agile fighter once it’s dropped its ordnance.
In naval arcade u can see what lineups a player used The squadron SKR 7 is often the only top tier vehicle a player have Imagine the majority of ground RB 10.0 matches with 3 Soviet players who spawn in the BMP2m, a bt5, and a kv1 (or only a BMP2m) That's basically the situation with the SKR7 bc ppl buy it so often
The only issue I have with the Firecrest is the lack of durability. I swear if I sneeze my tail falls off and it's crash time. I have otherwise not had issue with the weapons system or maneuverability. Then again I have, when paired with a good squad of platers, been effective and gotten kills with Hurricanes at a BR two and three points higher than their actual BR. In those teamwork and communication was key though.
I'm so happy right now since many ppl say that the a4-e early is bad but i still continued to unlock it i don't have it yet but I have like 40k research left
About the Russian apds-fs name, I think it’s actually how they call their shells. They basically call it APDS that is fin stabilised, when westerners typically say apfsds.
I've found the grenade launcher on the BMP-2M is great for clearing obstacles in your path, whether it be trees, fences/walls or a whole fuggin house lol
I got the Me 262 A1-a after purchas...I mean acquiring the leo 2 PzBtl and found that it's surprisingly good at downing SU-25s and variants. As long as you get on their tale they have a surprisingly hard time evading you and can't out maneuver you. I've downed many an SU-25 with it in top tier and even some A-10s as well
The reason why there's no - and an additional space in the Swedish name is probably cuz of Swedish army name formatting. Since it was the Swedish army that trialed it, they probably changed it to make sense with other Swedish vehicles.
I shouldve commented about this earlier, but the Me 262 is the best at its br in sim, as it is the fastest and better at retaining its speed than the other jets, ive gotten 11 kill 4 assists 3 deaths before in it, its very fun
I know I’m late to this video but does anyone remember playing more thunder and your gunner would go unconscious? He wouldn’t be dead he just be unconscious. I never get that anymore. It just says either he’s dead or he’s alive. I remember playing you get hit none of your crew would die but you’d hear over the radio, the gun is unconscious or some otter crewmember is unconscious
Yay new vid lov ur vids man keep it up respect ima sleep rn im dutch so different time zones i sil watch it tmrw will comment again then Update1: im awake now ima watch it

the swedish t-80 is at a akward br for sweden. not good enough for leo2A6 lineup and leo2a4 will get put into top tier if u use it.
Just to Think about that the BMP2 can Launch atgms while driving is insane, as example, when they took that ability away from the Type 87 broke the Back of this vehicle
I dunno I quite enjoy the Firecrest in Air RB, I can sometimes get away with 3-4 kills before having to reload
If more tank destroyers got scouting, imagine, someday they fix Khrizantema S’s ground radar and its BMP3 hull hydraulic suspension, then add the scouting to it. Even its got from 9.7 to 11.0, even 11.7 after those buff, it still can do wonders
That clip with the British t90 lmaoo
3:30 lmao i always drift with the rear towards the enemy so i dont have to wait for the launcher to rotate xddd
5:28 "You only need to deploy 1 or 2"
*Meanwhile me spamming the whole f-ing 12 for a mf Aim9 to dont even care at all and insta kill me:*
"Nice logic snail... Getting your brain to the speed of the animal representing you"
I think the grenade launcher on the BMP-2M is actually kind of a balancing feature. The ammo for it is stored right on top of the turret which makes it a pretty easily kill when one of these is hull down.
When playing it I've actually tried putting this theory into practice by emptying the entire GL ammo before going into battle and it made a small but noticeable difference in survivability.
I am quite fond of it but it's not my favorite IFV. Lynx is better imo.
You forgot, for me a big advantage on the BMP-2M. Because it can lock onto enemy aircrafts and kill them with its main or just shoot one of its 8 ATGMs (4×2) which surprisingly hit quite well even onto moving planes if they don't manoeuvre that much. I know you just forgot to mention it but that's why I made this comment, to let others know it can lock onto enemy aircrafts.
Imma be honest, I thought Zoltan stole this video idea from another CC only to realize that Zoltan stole the idea from none other than Zoltan himself. The deja vu was hittin
Important note about the M901, since it is a M113 chassis and Gaijin hates it, it will struggle to go up most inclines your normal tanks might, keep that in mind too. (Also it should be W-E tier)
As an A10 player, I take offense to saying the Harrier is gonna make people upset with its speed. It's faster than I am. XD lmao, much love, great video.
I knew I saw this video somewhere! I was looking for it last 3 days cause I'm about to start my next research and couldn't find it, thought I was delusional
I am kidnapped and the kidnapper said I am free to go if I tell him the best squadron vehicles in War Thunder, this video saved my life.
It was very odd to see the firecrest be trashed this way. It’s very versitile and is a CAS plane that turns into a very agile fighter once it’s dropped its ordnance.
In naval arcade u can see what lineups a player used
The squadron SKR 7 is often the only top tier vehicle a player have
Imagine the majority of ground RB 10.0 matches with 3 Soviet players who spawn in the BMP2m, a bt5, and a kv1 (or only a BMP2m)
That's basically the situation with the SKR7 bc ppl buy it so often
The only issue I have with the Firecrest is the lack of durability. I swear if I sneeze my tail falls off and it's crash time. I have otherwise not had issue with the weapons system or maneuverability. Then again I have, when paired with a good squad of platers, been effective and gotten kills with Hurricanes at a BR two and three points higher than their actual BR. In those teamwork and communication was key though.
I just don't have the Magach, Abrams, Hunter and the F-5, good video BTW.
A-4E skyhawk is one of my favorite. cuz it's my first jet
And we still have two nations without a squadron vehicle.
You can fix those glitched names by going in settings and unchecking the box which says enable custom localization
My friend who’s a Warthunder wiki moderator said the Firecrest actually has the wrong engine but I haven’t had the time to check that fact out yet…
I'm so happy right now since many ppl say that the a4-e early is bad but i still continued to unlock it i don't have it yet but I have like 40k research left
The Me-262 is a good squad plane but only in head ons
About the Russian apds-fs name, I think it’s actually how they call their shells. They basically call it APDS that is fin stabilised, when westerners typically say apfsds.
I've found the grenade launcher on the BMP-2M is great for clearing obstacles in your path, whether it be trees, fences/walls or a whole fuggin house lol
the Bhishma dozers can stop HEAT rounds
i have a talisman on my su22m3 and i unlocked a massive amount of the russian tree with it. love it, amazing aircraft for grinding arb and sim.
36:36 It is a feature the tank has in real life, that is why it has the grenade launcher.
I got the Me 262 A1-a after purchas...I mean acquiring the leo 2 PzBtl and found that it's surprisingly good at downing SU-25s and variants. As long as you get on their tale they have a surprisingly hard time evading you and can't out maneuver you. I've downed many an SU-25 with it in top tier and even some A-10s as well
This works with any plane , if somebody gets on your tail you are basically cooked
9:30 A rahdo is definitely a unique way to say it
The reason why there's no - and an additional space in the Swedish name is probably cuz of Swedish army name formatting. Since it was the Swedish army that trialed it, they probably changed it to make sense with other Swedish vehicles.
I shouldve commented about this earlier, but the Me 262 is the best at its br in sim, as it is the fastest and better at retaining its speed than the other jets, ive gotten 11 kill 4 assists 3 deaths before in it, its very fun
I know I’m late to this video but does anyone remember playing more thunder and your gunner would go unconscious? He wouldn’t be dead he just be unconscious. I never get that anymore. It just says either he’s dead or he’s alive. I remember playing you get hit none of your crew would die but you’d hear over the radio, the gun is unconscious or some otter crewmember is unconscious
Thx for the video man
Yay new vid lov ur vids man keep it up respect ima sleep rn im dutch so different time zones i sil watch it tmrw will comment again then
Update1: im awake now ima watch it
YAH-64 doesn't have access to Stingers (sadly)
The M901 used to be one of the most broken vehicles in the game, nowadays its just decent and balanced in mid-long range maps
Me262 plane that is barely good for anything higher than previous things lol. It's on the same level with british prop
For this map at 17:17... Do I need a specific br to get on that map? Never ever played it before but then I'm not playing top tier br
Yeah, it's unlocked at late tier. You can see the br ranges of different maps in map preferences
the difference between swedish and russian T80U names are probably file difference, you can't have 2 files named the same because the program won't know which one to read at a time
I love the M-1 AIM. Along side the Clickbait, it makes a sexy and effective combo.
