@@toaster2094the R-73 which is the missile he was using has some of the best flare resistance in the game for air to air missiles.

@@sooryan_1018Just wanted to point out there are not only Air to Air Ir-missiles. And since he didn't specify I thought he forgot. They seem to be somewhat unknown.(As far as I have noticed)
@@wither6039 I mean IR or not, the sole role of an AGM is to lock onto a ground vehicle. This is no myth, this is something every player regularly uses
Myth: With rear aspect missile, fire a rocket at someone from the side, launch the rear aspect ir at it, and It will eventually see the plane and target it.
For the small bombs, you should have used 0.0s bomb timer. This allows the bombs to explode on impact, otherwise they will strike the tank, fall to the ground and then detonate. Though I'm uncertain still if the bombs detonated on impact on the roof of the tank if they could penetrade. This is the way I use the relatively weak swedish 50kg bombs. 0.0s allows me to just nuke the entire crew by going through roof armor rather than side armor.
You might not have been able to lock onto the burning ground targets cause you were using an r73, which has irccm and may be resistant to anything other than planes.
IR seeking missiles use a specific band of IR which regular fire doesn't cover. IR Flares at one point at least used strontium because compounds using it burn in roughly the same wavelength as the heat signature of the jet engine itself, successfully confusing the lock. This is why 1: IR flares work, and 2: why this is reflected in-game by having these fires Not work. I'm basically repeating a video from Extractions & Ire, love Tom, it's the more sciencey and less flashy second channel to Explosions & Fire. For anyone unaware what the E&F is: Australian chemistry & physics PhD makes various explosives in the shed. Very exciting.
It’s not necessary because of that, an all aspect missile would have an easier time locking its just the missile he was using has advanced flare resistance so it can tell the difference between a fire and a jet engine
There are videos of the smallest bombs in War Thunder killing a Maus. Just because you couldn't get the bomb to fall inside the tank doesn't mean it's not possible..
I don't know if it'd matter, but I think you should redo the maus-bombing from different angle like from behind, and high altitude dive-bombing. Just to see if the result is the same.
Heat seekers designed for Air to Air aren't designed to distinguish between the heat reflected off the earth and the miniscule heat signature of a ground vehicle.

The smallest bomb in War Thunder CAN kill the Maus, and it has been done before, by Malzi, I believe.
you gotta go for the vents/ roof, or maybe get the bomb under

Correct, I’ve been able to lock in engine decks with Aim-9Bs
Yea you can easily lock burning ground vehicles

Sitting down and watching this has made my day so much better
The weighted trains set killed me😂😂
The smallest bomb in the game can kill the maus, the maus just has to drive over it. The outer armor is too thick but the belly armor is thin enough
It was able to destroy a maus by dropping this bomb on top of the hull before gaijin nerfed all bombs and HE damage...
L3/33s always get hurt for no damn reason 😢
What were you doin to that l3 😭
The 10 kg bombs can actually penetrate up to like 80mm or something, but you’d have to hit that maus perfectly from like 1500m in the air.

You can't lock onto fire in WarThunder yet the AA missiles in BF2 can lock onto the flames of fuckin' oil Derricks.

The missiles damaging bases is pretty cool. I destroyed base like this one time
In my 6 months of playing War Thunder, ive never had an L3 spawn in a game with me.
If missile has interference protection, it wont lock on sun, ground targets, etc. but early AA missiles may be can
The IR mussels would prob lock if the tank on fire was still alive, but they’re probably lock anyway because it isn’t a dead tank
That bomb has the possibility of still killing the Maus. You just need to drive the Maus over the bomb. The belly is one of if not the weakest point.
Another mith. Radar missiles can lock onto AA targets in the middle of the map in Air RB and hit them. It happened to me.
Imagine your tying to kill someone and another guy appears and starts towing you because you left your “request team help” on
I killed almost two muases with the peashooters 100lbs 😂

Only IR missiles without a irccm head can track and lock ground Targets, for example the r60 which goes after bonfires on the ground
You know? Infrared missiles can lock the SUN
when they add the aim9x i hope it can lock ground targets like it can IRL

Grass is growing or
Water is soaked
Use r60m and it will lock a small campfire 40km away
You can hide behind dead vehicles and a ir missile can lock onto it after fired
The small bomb can destroy the maus, have to be 0 delay, have to hit and explose in hit, and have to hit abouve...
Ironically, air to air's do target plane and heli crashes
Try to use older missiles for them to look on the burning targets
It can lock onto burning planes on the ground
It can lock on to a burning target on the ground if it's a crashed aircraft u can even lock onto the sun
I'm pretty sure heat seeker missles can lock tanks, but I don't think modern missles can, because of the technology
If anyone’s not in a squadron in war thunder pls join BLZR
You may know these but did you know that some missiles can lock onto the sun.
For burning targets on the ground I believe it needs to be an aircraft
Him: even after putting the seeker right on the target it still won’t lock
Also him: using Russian plane
Ir missiles can lock dead blown up aircraft in air realistic (or at least the older missiles)
new challenge: find the enemy L3 and tow it away while putting “you’re going to brazil” in all chat…
if the maus turret is turned to the side and you land the bomb right on top of the hull it will kill it
Only the early missles lock fire on the ground, I think I had one lock a crashed plane before.
So that last myth is kinda hard to believe because you can lock onto the sun
u have to hit the bomb under the muas
Maus radiator out
Engineer : now who gonna fix this? *FACTORY REDUCE TO ATOM*
However if you shoot down a plane down on a test flight map and the plane lands on land you can lock onto the plane while it burns on the ground
bruh at the end, all the tanks where dead, no wonder the missles didn't lock
next try the f4 armed with sidewinders can lock onto the sun occasionaly in a test flight
