Im excited for this too, but I think it may have an adverse effect. I feel like from 11.7 and up in sim, if there is 2 or 3 attackers, ground targets feel limited, excluding targeting airfields bc of air to ground weaponry being so effective already. They definitely need to rework Sim ai and targets.
The F-18 is literally worse then the F-15C, it had nothing to do with people wanting a "broken" new plane. The F-18 was already going to suck, now it is just completely DOA.
@@notmyrealaccount5245 Gaijin adding the F-18 ages ago would have also fixed that i.e. Britain, Sweden and Germany all would have received the F-18C.... hmmm
I believe the SBU-54 is IR when perfectly tracking a moving target but if the target lock is lost it just acts like a GBU and goes after the last known coordinates, I’m not sure though
yes like 6 micas em 2 magics.. like now it just feels like a downgrade from the mirage 2000 since micas are short range and i rather carry more missiles
Users can now set POI on map from outside 20 km. RIP to the idiot AA players that don't leave spawn in ground RB. German players have to rejoice that Germany decided to buy Brimstone 3 in June of this year, or else they would be stuck with Paveway II and JDAM for ground attack.
"Rip to idiot AA players" Ah yes, as if they have a choice to leave spawn, when half the maps are so restricted you have to go straight towards the enemy. Truly a "just spawn AA" comment.
Bro im so freking sure you gonna love the german Eurofighter , Good on the ground AND now GOOD IN THE FREAKING AIR WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO , never again an shitbrick named f4f ICE and a boat named Tornado ( even tought its still good but i can´t to shit with it ) , the long wait hat payed off all i hope now is that the update is coming good in to the gam with not many bugs and im happy to see an video about the eurofighter /leopard 2a7v on the new greek map .
This European canard-delta fighters is a stars of Ace Combat series. 30 years of Eurofighter EF-2000 Typhoon in 2024, 35 (40) years of Dassault Rafale in 2026 and 30 years of Ace Combat series in 2025.
POI from map is such a big QOL change. No longer do i have to spam in sim the select base button. Now with gps guided bomb it will be like: Go somewhat high, click on map, drop a couple, click the other spot, drop a couple, go back.
It's bugged because of the fuel weight, it's always set at minimum independently of what you choose. At full fuel load it's more than 1 minute quicker in the zero-to-Mach 1 acceleration than what it should be
Hammer bombs are a dumb bomb with a guidance and a propulsion kit attached. It allows for high of boresight firering (>90°) and very low altitude firing (you will get like 15km range flying at 100m basically). Is it modeled ingame ? Rafale also has the very advanced spectra EW suite, is it modeled in some way ? What about IRST like Eurofighter's Pirate or Rafale's OSF ? No MICA-IR either ?
The feature is fantastic for sim pilots, but the targeting pod still being limited to 20km when moving the mouse is going to get annoying real fast. If we can override it by using the map, the POI that the targeting pod is looking at should stay, regardless of range
Hey hunter. I was thinkig if you could revisit the control settig, and kinda an exemplary video of it. after the update drops. like how you reset things(targeting pod, ir lock, etc..), and something like that.
Hey Hunter, hope all is well. I test drove both and I am going for the Rafale with the Hammer SBUs. Micas are excellent at close range and aim-120b are better in the long-distance department. Also, it handles like a dream. What a beautiful Aircraft. The Eurofighter its Awesome too. But Rafale it's the way to go. Hopefully they would not change it too much before the live server. Talk to you soon my brother. Thank you for your videos like always!
Won’t the POI make Brimstones kinda strong in GRB? You can use the ground map to set POI on the enemy spawn if you know there’s a SAM there, then launch when you’re in range without having to go above terrain cover, only being visible for the last 10-15s while you find and lase whatever’s there
They instead should've added buddy lasing/target painting. Both player & ally get a kill score. The it quite unintuitive, they should add a click and hold to drag the map, 2nd the map shouldn't move when zoomed in, 3rd double click for attention to point, single click for SPOI, and also add a right click and you get a drop down menu with SPOI and attention to the point.
Hi Hunter again nice video and what are you most excited for in the update and do you think the Eurofighter is the new best jet? Have a very nice day my friend :)
It's sad the rafale is missing so many hardpoint (I think that's how it's called) he is supposed to take a little bit less or a little bit more than the ef2000 I don't remember which one is the right one! But it's the dev server so everything is subject to change
i never bothered to grind all the way to germanys top tier air because they didnt get any multi role like maybe the f16c or f15e. but now i regret this...
its alright, entirely carried by its magic 2s and countermeasures. if you do buy it dont bother base bombing just bring 2 magics and 2 530fs and look for unsuspecting people
Hey siri, what is pure art? So many naval aircraft this update, it’s almost like there’s one missing however I hate that they have the Rafale and the Typhoon the F-15s sound effects tho
The contract is announced in July, 5 months ago, and the Luftwaffe intends to acquire 274 Brimstones. I guess the contract announcement was enough for Gaijin to decide giving Brimstones to Germany. Specially Germany stayed too long without a proper multirole modern jet.
Hello Hunter! Another amazing showcase video from yourself. I am very excited for these aircraft. Just wondering if you or anyone here knows the tech lines these jets are in? Does the Euro Fighter follow after the F4S Ice? And the Rafale follow after the Mirage 2K 5F? Thank you in advance! 🙏🔥
Everything my friend, speed, maneuverability, air to air & air to ground capabilities as well, but at higher BR, Tornado is 11.3 which will stay very good in 11.3 lineup, it will rarely see Pantsir S1 and it will never see the spam of Fox 3s.
Hey Hunter! Hope you re doing good. My question with the new pin point change, wich is Great for teamplay with friends, it would be better to start from an airfield in ground rb isn it? When u Start from the airfield you can get more Range to the battlefield without beeing derected or am i wrong with my thoughts? I hope you know what I mean.
@@vandeseite1662Hello, I won't use it much in Ground RB since I solo, so I will just mark the map once I spawn and that is it I guess, spawn air too because the battles are already too short 👍 It is more handy in sim
Sadly the rafale is not as good as expected, whe nthe typhoon, him, is really good. Better speed/maniability ,acceleration, amount of missile, amount of ground loading , . Lul
I don't understand why they are rushing it, after two years from now all famous jets will be already in the game and there will not be more iconic aircraft to add.
The game doesn't need to be called War Thunder anymore it should be called Air thunder for all the CAS elements they are putting in. They are making it pretty difficult for ground battles and no way to really counter these things.
@@samkim8703 No not really, I would rather have far larger ground maps with some cover or places to maybe survive a little while. Better SPAA for all nations that can reach the aircraft and have them fix the ridiculous stupid missile mechanics on SPAA's. But mainly I want far far larger ground maps with more cap points so everyone isn't fighting on a single city block, spread the battlefield out especially for modern tanks.
@@muleyman68 interesting, that could work. Seen some comments on forums about this topic and raising the points needed to use CAS which sounds great, one death leavers should have penalties or is that too extreme?
Let's be honest, how the new guys even reach these aircrafts? The top tier is a joke one minute you take of you die instantly from Aim-120 or phoenix or R-77. With a newbie you dont even have BVR in most aircrafts if I am correct...you know who wold play with this?
POI linked with map has to be the best thing for sim cas players
we don't need to find the target ourself anymore

@ezj2820 yeah an a10c can eat the entire combat group in seconds
@@zeta4687if it gets there
2:42 Nice fuel bug with useing %80 fuel and, -3 flying time, haha! The Rafale doesn’t need oil to fly! RAHHHHH! Vive la France!!! 😂🤣
It needs 1 baguette per hour of flight time.
I love how there are some people who are unhappy that the f/a-18 is not coming to the US as if they already has the best jets in game already
The issue is that the Hornets are planes that should've been added, especially before AESA radar Euro Canards
The F-18 is literally worse then the F-15C, it had nothing to do with people wanting a "broken" new plane. The F-18 was already going to suck, now it is just completely DOA.

Now we just need FnF Brimstone missiles.
And Longbow Missiles
I believe the SBU-54 is IR when perfectly tracking a moving target but if the target lock is lost it just acts like a GBU and goes after the last known coordinates, I’m not sure though
yeah that's what IOG in weapons means, (internal ordinance guidance)
I can imagine you're very grateful for the POI feature. Should be a huge quality of life buff for CAS.
wait u can have sb scout anti air with drone then use POI to drop from 20km+
WHEN CAN THEY INPROVE THE GROUND RP SITUATION, 7 KILLS FOR ONLY 3K RP????????
It's so that you don't play with a COD mindset and actually do objectives to win. Kills get diminishing RP returns
@@shino2788 caps also give dog shit rp returns. Ground RB just plain has terrible RP gains compared to air.
Youre videos are simply the best🤙🏻
I appreciate that!
Hunter, I always love your coverage bro.
Appreciate that bro!
I hope they add some fox2s for the Rafale. I'll take Magic2s lol. PE marker is gonna be soo good especially for sim.

on half of the maps if you move you are dead
Brimstones are mid anyway. Too slow and laser guided and can be shot down.
Leaves spawn in spaa, dies to flanking tank.

:)
Never realized the Rafale had so little vision looking forward.
The interiors look sick! So futuristic

Euro-Canards simply are the best looking jets made, cant change my mind :)
the map moving with aircraft position is room temp IQ design
Simulating manual computer programming on the fly :D This is so great. Next step - DTC simulation before the mission.
The energy retention on the EF is wild
they will nerf it
It's bugged because of the fuel weight, it's always set at minimum independently of what you choose. At full fuel load it's more than 1 minute quicker in the zero-to-Mach 1 acceleration than what it should be
@@jfv2312 Uh what, the Eurofighter goes from 0-Mach in 30 seconds IRL.
I just want a right-click on the map for POI and don't need to click on the bottom right to use it.
Rafale cannon should have a higher fire rate, it should be at 2500 shots per minute while it’s at 750 shots per minute in game, like the Tiger HAP/HAD
Cool Video Hunter! I am pretty excited about the eurofighter.
Will there be a Video about the iar-93b in the near Future?
Thanks a lot. Yes, I got the plane, bought the stars with GE :D

Wouldn't mind the ASSTA 4 Tornado as well
👍
Yes sir, Typhoon but if it doesn't have the whistle it's known for its not worth it. 😂
Rafael is just a shorter chubbier version of the typhoon with 2 engines instead of 1. I can’t in see it now.

Less that EF, EF can carry the most weapons in it
i never bothered to grind all the way to germanys top tier air because they didnt get any multi role like maybe the f16c or f15e. but now i regret this...
AASM are supposed to hit their target at a 90degree angle (that’s why they’re called hammer i guess) you can watch it on videos of the war in Ukraine
So, you are telling me
They removed the grom-1 from the Su-34
To then add a pretty much exactly the same weapon to France the very next update
you will facing against Pantsir S1.
bussian rias!!!!!!!!
That means nothing. Groms are GPS only. @@lordbumpy3634
@@lordbumpy3634my bad, i forgot the pantsir has 100km range
Even with 18km most players react at like 12km
This has 5 times that range

how do i get the dev server?
This warthunder.com/en/news/6988-how-to-install-the-dev-server-en
So is the grom 1 coming back or no?
Really don't see the reason not have them anymore...
I’m thinking of buying the Mirage F1C 200 to grind France to get the Rafale. Yall think the Mirage is worth it?
its alright, entirely carried by its magic 2s and countermeasures. if you do buy it dont bother base bombing just bring 2 magics and 2 530fs and look for unsuspecting people
I think im gonna buy it to pre grind France before the update. I’m a fast air tech tree grinder
its a good plane but you are gonna get some tough matches at 12.0
Gaijin introduced the feature of selecting Targeting Point via the map, thing I've proposed last patch. Hell yeah
What is better AIM9 I/L’s or AIM 9M’s?
They are identical outside of smokeless engine in 9m
aim9m is smokeless , aim9Li leaves a smoke trail both are same otherwise
