Full A-5C Review - Should You Buy It? [War Thunder]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 окт 2024
- The A-5C is a Chinese tech tree premium strike fighter that does basically everything well. It can perform CAS, it can take out air targets, and it can even go after bases. It does lack some key features, however, and I will go over ALL of that and more in my full A-5C review.

Brother I really enjoy the way in which you do your reviews. You should look into radio you have the voice for it.
Thank you! That means a lot to me
I would also like to mention in the official direct hit stream today they stated “we can say that the devs have decided to add 2 additional mounting points specifically for rockets” and implying that it will be able to hold more load outs
air spawn with magics what could possibly go wrong
packet loss has entered the chat
okay so I've Just watched a few of Tankenstiens Reviews and honestly, my Guy is so good at reviewing vehicles. He hits every important point, compares it to comparable aircraft, shows you how to use it best depending on the game mode, he makes the pro's and con's clear, and every review feels Fair. There are a lot of war thunder youtuber's who make "reviews" of vehicles but they're always making previews only talking about the stats. keep up the good work I love these videos.
Yup. He’s the best reviewer out there imo
Currently the loadout given to the A-5C isn't complete, as in real life the Fantan would have 10 pylons. Gaijin has confirmed that they'll give the remaining 2 pylons in the later patches, this sexy beast left its mark in PAF history.
Sadly none...
I bought this instead of J35A but ill get that next week... I do love the A5C, Those magics missiles are sick!
The j35a is stupid fun to fly, easily the most fun I've had in warthunder for a while
@Max Bellew hmmmm the J35a is very good but you got to turn fight and be accurate with youre guns cuz the 4 missiles cant hit much if it isn't going straight. If you get behind ppl and turn till they go straight for speed then yea it'll help big time. The A-5c has to beautiful missiles that are literally like magic at times but you only get 2 so you'll have to land etc.A-5c starts in the Air but cant turn fight much. In the end it really comes down to you're play style! I prefer the A-5c since im not the best turn fighter.
@Max Bellew Test flight them too, that way youll know which feels better for ya!
Fighting this in the J35A has been slightly annoying. It can zoom away from you pretty easily. I guess that and the missiles are what earn this the 0.3 higher BR.
It was surprising though I seem to have managed to avoid magics in the J35A not used to it happening that often...
Great review man
Amazing, helpful review!
The day before the update they accepted a bug report for the A-5C that says it used 130mm rockets and had a CCIP.
God knows when/if Gaijin will implement that.
EDIT: also 750lb bombs
And another pylon on the wing. It should have ten hardpoints in total.
The tech tree Q-5s are lacking ordnance too,the Q-5 early is suposed to be able to carry 6 250kg bombs,50kg bombs and even 500kg bombs,and the Q-5A/B is suposed to be able to carry 50kg,250kg and 500kg bombs too and it could carry 4 pods of the 130mm rocket,it could carry 2x missiles that were PL-2s,PL-5s and PL-7s,and it had Ballistic computer for rockets and bombs,it was already reported but gaijin doens´t care about the Q-5s its really sad since i really like the look of the Q-5s.
Mike said on stream that it is getting 2extra pilons and the type 130 rockets
@@oliversearle3996 He did? nice!
@@Ome99 yep
I got this thing today and got to play it for 15 minutes as of now. It’s worth every penny
The Spider really fits its screw technique, it drains the energy from its enemy (as a spider wraps its web for its prey) and then kills it off. Is "Spider" a division in the Pakistani air force?
Yes :) No. 26 squadron of PAF named Black Spiders formed in 1967. Flew A5c from 1984 to 2010. And the first squadron of PAF to recieve the Jf17 thunder.
Mike said it is getting buffed will get 2 extra pilons and the amazing type 130 rockets
I bought it but it doesn’t show up in game help pls
I really liked the video! Next time though can you please pull negative g's when you are about to black out? It'll keep you from blacking out.
I have a big problem. I saw that the AV 8 in the video can dodge missiles with flares Why is my AV 8 trying to radiate flares when I play but it doesn’t work? Is it another bug?
You have to select a loadout with flares
A5c is a 10/10 in 1v1 can defeat anything even some 11.0
Are u insane
@@zenitu6914 no for real lol ,if u maintain speed at around 800kmph it will easily outrate most of the stuff. its just a heavier mig19.
The A5C is so fucking op in air rb, a Mig 19 with Magics? Hell yeah!
They should move it to 10.7
@@cristobalalvarez5491 it get raped in uptiers
10.7 is the right br for this new cancer
@@giffarrrr no it isnt
@@oliversearle3996 10.3 atleast
Do you think the premium WMA and the A5C would be a decent premium loadout? I know the premium wma is br 8.3 but im just curious
Yes
Can you please tell me why you can’t find this aircraft in the store? I have searched and searched and it’s not available anywhere.
Hi, can tou review the german Mig 15 bis? Im researching it, i would like some advice
There’s already a lot of good mig15 guides, check defyn’s videos on it
Im grinding my first couple of BR 9.7 -10.3 Jets atm... Feels like 70% of missle hits I cannot defend against I get from this plane.
Wow . How you move the camera like thism it's awesome
good video other than saying that it "really shines in CAS" its like one of the worst case planes in the game at 10.0, no targeting computer very small missile loadout and few and pretty small bombs. Not a good cas plane at all.
I also heard today from War Thunder channel that it soon to get a buff with two additional pylons - for better rockets 🚀
What war thunder channel?
@@hummerskickass the twitch war thunder channel
for real!?
I honestly don't know why we didnt get at least a fucking q5b in the tech tree, we have the early and a variant, both being shit to meh on the usability scale
I hate this thing. I got the draken and whenever I play against this thing idk how to fight it and always die.
I also have the premium draken and when going up against A5Cs try not to loose all of your energy and trying to force them into a turn fight. Try and catch them off guard and if they get behind you just make sure to turn towards them as quick as possible so they can't get a missile out on you.
@@maglogni2922 thanks for the tips man.
@@ravenspire0240 What? You basically auto win if you don't get hit by a magic.
The plane is pog, very pog
The A-5C's problem is that it compresses really bad above 650mph, and it has absolute shit handling above 10,000 feet. BUT, I have found ways too make this plane work. If someone catches me up high, force them into a downward spiral. Once you're on the deck, rate fight them. This plane will out turn pretty much every single jet it'll face in the game below 400mph. This plane likes low and slow. Get low, get slow, and turn. Just keep turning, you will out rate the enemy.
When will it come to ps4?
what is better premium av-8a f5c or f11 tiger
F-5C
thanks man love you videos
AV8A just got 240 flares tho
f5c
@@oliversearle3996 still f5
This plane needs a br buff. It gets insane missles for its br.
Lol im playing my f4c and die to that thing so many time BaLanced moment so now i play sabre.
@@thinkingdokutah3490 I mean its just so annoying. Its like the harriers with their sraams that can go against 9.0s with no missles or garbage 10g missles. Its embarrasing how bad matches can be. Only upside is they can get upteired pretty bad and since they handle so slow all aspect missles can gobble them up pretty easy.
@@jeezmcgree8642 A-5C wont be getting uptiered much if at all until its gets nerfed and people stop playing it so much. Every single match ive played with my 104C had at least half the enemy team completely made up of A-5Cs.
does anyone actually use radar for finding targets in air rb? i find that you can usually just rely on game sense to find enemy players, pointing a radar at them just tells them where you are.
I do. Though I use a lot of fox1’s so it’s kinda required to point your radar at people.
@@rampageTG yeah that makes sense lol. for planes that don't have sarh missiles, I usually turn the radar off unless i know the remaining planes on the enemy team don't have rwr.
i dont know what gaijin smoking put this plane at 10.0
9.7 maybe. I guess since they are lowering the german mig19s, probably 9.3
I kind of like this plane (yes I brought it), but you want to avoid 11.0 matches with it, at all cost (aka do not even spawn in 11.0 RB; believe me)! The top jets just eat u for breakfast!
Maybe you but ive had very good 11.0 games with it
You have flares and 2 magics. You can still get 2 frags if you position yourself well and third party people.
this thing will get put up to 10.3 or lose its air spawn
@Erik Adrian Pop true
This things grinds sl so yeah I got it
$60?
The price of a AAA title game for one single jet and some tokens....
Should be moved to 10.3 imo
A5C or F5C
Overall, F-5C, but the A-5C is not far behind. Very close. The A-5C has better missiles, but the F-5C is the better gunfighter and arguably better for CAS
@@Tankenstein yeah I wished they gave the f5c its aim 9j
why is it so expensive
yak 38 of top tier
a5c is harrier all over again
They sadly took away it's airspawn in air rb alittle while ago, instead of getting there first its getting there last now which isn't that bad since most enemies already have used their missiles at that point and u'll swoop in and clean up some leftovers
Would you still recommend it without the airspawn?
I'm about to buy it, thanks
@@TheTryingDutchman Its still decent with or without the airspawn because of the Matra R550 Magics, pretty sweet climb rate and nice thrust.
You'll probably be one of the last leaving the airbase but once ur in the air you'll be on that topspeed in no time.
Wallet warriors ruined top tier again
But gave u q new update
broken jet
a5c is :shit q5 plane + fantastic magic missile
This is a comment
its so broken..
should be 10.7 imo
Your opinion is wrong
@@murkser4149 30g missiles and flares at 10.3 is balanced to you?
@@BlockyRaptor F-4F early and MiG-21SMT and MF are at 10.3 and those are all much better planes than the A-5C lol
@@murkser4149 those all shouldn't be there either even when the mf and smt didn't have flares I thought they should be 10.7 all of these planes should be 10.7
@@BlockyRaptor it has like 18 flares mate that's nothing the AV8A has 240flares
Plz don't buy it this thing is a fucking pest in air rb
