A BULLDOG BUT IT'S ONLY 5.0 - M41A3 in War Thunder
HTML-код

- I did not expect this! The M41A3 in War Thunder is a Premium Chinese Light Tank that's only 5.0!
The Bulldog Tank in War Thunder is one of my favourites. It's a very maneuverable vehicle with just enough firepower, a great reload and an APDS. However, the M41A3 sacrifices the APDS for a much lower BR at 5.0!
This to me is one of the coolest vehicle to be added. It's just a shame that it's a premium, seems like it would be a good tech tree addition instead! :)
But, hey! At least it's not a silly amount of monies!

Once the crafting event goes live, and you have the vehicle in question, I'd love for a video on the LOSAT.
i will buy the bulldog with the link :)
Fun fact, China also has the highest BR Walker Bulldog. At 8.0 with a UAV, laser range finder, APFSDS, and Night Vision (not entirely unique but still, it's Night Vision)
It's called the M41D
@KevinFlorance-tr9fu ohhh nooooo. NOT THAT GAME THATS FCKING TERRIFYING.
But dear God when Markiplier goes solo he means *BUSINESS*
The Bulldog being the most “An Light Tank” light tank in the game definitely helps: No frills, no special doodads that require a new keybind or a new playstyle, you just play it like a big Chaffee or smth and have fun! :D
Let's be honest: people don't play chaffee as much only because it became rank II and thus can't be used for most events.
And Japanese Chaffee simply got no good lineup. Although, if you are ready to get yourself some universal backups, you can roll in it for days, limited only by bad SL gain.
imo the t92 is better than the bulldog
It's a great gremlin tank
@@burningsinner1132 Moving the Chaffee to Rank II was such a slap in the face.
keyboard comment made me laugh, came back to war thunder after a few years and literally needed a new keyboard i couldnt fit the keybinds
The M41 is such a good panic tank. I panic my way out of the most manic situations with it that I could just never pull off with any other vehicle. Absolutely nuts
i find the t92 is also pretty good at doing that it just lacks the neutral steering and reverse gear.
The Bulldog was such a breath off fresh air to unlock while trying to spade GOD AWFUL 5.7-6.7 Japan.
It's because it has MBT levels of mobility and turret rotation.
@@michaelbeale559 And scouting. And a 50cal. And APDS.
Very strange the Taiwanese M41 of all things doesn’t get sabot, when I think the sabot was primarily manufactured for Taiwan’s M41s in the ‘80s.
The M41D in the tech tree has APFSDS. It's 8.0 though.
15:52 officially the most casual main gun plane kill
So like, I realise the APDS is one of the main reasons for the bulldog's br, but there is no way removing it makes it 0.7br worse than an M18. I'm pretty sure this thing should be at least 5.3 if not 5.7. At 5.0 this thing is just so broken...
At the same time, this is the most amazing American tank for the tier that's not even in the nation, it's not like America gets anything good on the tech tree that's not premium while Germany and Russia just smoke everything America has, the Jumbo is the only heavy tank up to the T26E5 and Super Persh
US vehicles at that BR are comically overtiered. 5.0 is fine for a tank that can pen everything, has decent mobility, no stabilizer and no armor, since it only gets solid shot. The vk can actually bounce things, has a higher pen gun with APHE, decent mobility and sits at 5.0. Why is it OP?
@@hydrixs6996 Not really. America gets it's fair share of op vehicles. How long has it been since you've given the M4A1 a try? That thing is insanely busted. How about the chaffee or the M5 stuart? Or even the bulldog for that matter. Basically every single US light tank is good. The mediums are kinda hit or miss and so are the heavies, but you can't have everything.
Also, i find that the people who complain about other nations being better than their favourite one basically don't play the tanks they complain about.
Sure germany has some op tanks, but a lot of the other ones are clunky and over-rely on mediocre armor and firepower and thus lack mobillity and responsiveness. Plus your teammates are garbage so you almost always have to carry the team, which gets old quick.
And the soviets really aren't op in any way. I'd argue they're the most balanced tree in the game as far as ww2 to early cold war ground rb goes. Almost every soviet tank is usable, but has big flaws you need to overcome to make it shine. Be it incredibly long reloads, no gun depression, lackluster armor, lacking firepower or any combination of those.
@@caralho5237 Eh, not really, they aren't. They're fine.
Now, take for example the challenger (which sits at 5.3) and compare it to the bulldog. It has the same 0 armour, but worse speed. A slightly better gun, but no reverse to speak of and hull traverse is also horrible. Imo the M41 is strictly better.
And the VK you talk about has both horrible reverse as well as no turret traverse to speak of. Plus a longer reload. It's armor is also rather dissapointing, as american 76s and russian 85s will pen it's UFP without issue.
You underestimate just how agile the bulldog is. The abiility to zoom around the map and brawl insanely well due to your traverse speeds are incredibly useful tools that together with basically a "britified 90mm" make a good base for a very versatile light tank.
Imo you could take this thing to 5.7 and barely notice a difference. Just like you can take the US M41 to 6.7 and have it feel like it's in it's own br.
@@jojomaster7675 yup, basically any tank is good if you play it correctly
worlds most balanced prem
💀
No no, that honour goes to the new VIDAR premium. Gen 2 thermals, Laser rangefinder, and an auto loader on a 155mm howitzer at 7.7
@@usssimshullnumberdd-40952 round autoloader lol
@@Owlberightback still an autoloader on a 155mm gun. What would you pick? A 152mm with no autoloader like the KV-2's gun, or a 155mm with a small autoloader (but still an autoloader)?
@@usssimshullnumberdd-4095yeah new premium is OP as hell ngl
6:27 the commander thing didn't work since the commander is dead. For some reason the thing that shows you how long till the commander takes over doesn't account for whether or not the commander is alive so it can lead to very awkward and uncomfortable situations
Also at 5.0 its gonna appear at 4.0 in 'down tiers' for those select few that get such 'down tiers', that will be fun to face.
I think the bulldog is just straight up one of the prettiest tanks ever made
it's a smol m47
i want a ribbon on it and dress it up like the pretty girl it is
Turrets a little big, but yeah. Bulldog and Chaffee, both very good looking tanks.
Didn't see this in the update but 5.0 is crazy.
nah solid shot with like 180mm of pen isn't that good, considering any british tank can do the same at a lower BR, and panther D is at 5.3 with a better gun and HE filler, with an immortal hull
@@J4ckmaestroactually comparable to avenger and concept 3 so maybe somewhat true, altough losing whole br only to lose apds is nuts. If it was non premium version, would be at least 0.3 higher
@@namelamus8476 yeh no doubt if it wasn't premium it would go up in BR, but I don't think it deserves it
Now that you experienced low tier bulldog, it's time to play the bulldog at 8.0😈
M41D accuracy is so bad , why gaijin to do this ?
Speaking as a simple German main, I enjoy the apds bulldog. Being able to pen anything, anywhere (nearly) makes a nice laid back experience.
Pretty much the normal German experience lol
Plus we get smokes and a very nice heatfs over this one and I believe all the other ones
that experience is the same as the majority of vehicles in your tree already. As a bonus they also usually are unfairly hard to kill as well.
but it stock shell is apcr
god, the german m41 apcr grind sucks, especially back before they buffed apcr, but once you get the HEAT it is easily one of the best tanks in the german 6.3 lineup, as well as the best bulldog in general @@arthurman415
i can't tell you how many times i have been able to run circles around hoards of russian and german heavies trying to corner me while i pick their crews apart 1 APDS round at a time.
So many good memories in the bulldog
you should try out the Vickers Mk.7! It's a Leopard 2 but with a funny British turret and a British gun!
LETS GO ODD!
LETS GO TURNY!
Thank you for the video about this vehicle, I ask every RUclipsr to make a video about it. I bought it immediately after adding it to the game, it's so good that if used properly it can be used on 6.0.
@TELE-GRAM..OddBawZ What do you mean?
This thing is a monster at 5.0 BR in ground RB.... I love light tanks and this being at 5.0 bought it the second it came out best GE spent so far on this update.
Ill have the entire Chinese tree grinded with this thing.
I've always loved the Bulldog. As soon as I got past the stock grind and could get the full speed and traction, driving it is great.
Gaijin + 3,000,000 social credits putting this tank in the Chinese tech tree 💀
My DUDE it is awesome everytime I heard Odd saying at intro 'in this video" That quote perfect rehabilitation for me
Now that we have the 2S1, we can have a true TGPD Tank of Righteousness.
Bo Time Gaming has done a video on the 2S1 with the skin for the TGPD (Top Gear Police Department), now I think it's time, OddBawZ takes the wheel.
Besides your hilarious sarcasm of gaijin and team mates you damn near are a one tank armor division of destruction to the enemy
Your video's are excellent in quality and content
God bless and stay safe and have fun
Just imagine this BullDog seeing 4.0 tanks ....like wtf Bet this gets moved up a little bit in BR
funny how premium tank solid shot spall so well that you always one shot any tank
That second match was the hardest carry I have ever seen in this game holy hell Odd
Odd I have been watching you for a couple years now and I have came to a conclusion. Its not your team vs the other team. Its you vs the other team. Game on brother.
Always fun to watch an expert play! Thanks, OddBawZ!
The Bulldog had an auto-track system in real life
I actually love the aesthetics of the Bulldog and the Chaffee, they're among my favorites in the game.
I might actually get this Bulldog, solid shot does enough damage at 5.0 to work. Very fun.
"That French guy has the strongest shins known to man." Well, now we know he definitely wasn't skipping leg day
This thing is a light version of the Panther. The gun is a bit less potent when it comes to 0° and 30° pen, but with the 5x zoom and almost identical v0 it only falls behind in armor. Very nice to grind down the chinese tech tree.
earliest ive ever been to an oddbawz video ^^
When Odd uploads I curl my toes in excitement
Idk why but he sounds so genuinely happy to be playing this tank
Honestly the German Bulldog is my favorite. Actual smoke launchers, HEAT-FS (not that I use it much), and the ability to get you into an Arado or the Narwhal is so damn nice.
What’s the narwhal
Pov: you're a Panther tank in the movie The Battle of the Bulge as well as the M-47 as a Tiger 2
This would team up greatly with the object 211 and compensates for its weaknesses, China 5.0 also have a few decent CAS, and only lacks a good heavy/medium at this BR arguably
They need to fix the sound of the detroit 8v71t its missing the general whine/scream it makes but they did get the grumbling kinda right
commander taking over gunner was not able to work because both gunner and commander was dead. In all my games where this happens, you still see the commander overide circle over gunner replacement even if commander is dead. And at the time when you were asking about it, the loader and driver was only alive, causing bro to just keep loading the gun.
Gaijin thought nobody gonna notice the sneaky Br of this
Well nobody did
I love the Bulldog simply because it was the first tank in ground battles to have a sabot round which I found so cool
swedish reserve vehicles at 1.0 have sabot toooooooo
@@dmitry4067 Sweden wasn't in the game back then.
Thanks forthe showcase I was thinking about buying it I just started researching rank 4 and only have one premium it's only rank 3 so maybe I might get it thanks for the video
No celebration after the air snipe is wild
I thought this M41 will get a stabilizer, and thankfully it didn’t get any.
What? Why would it get that?
@@daskollektiv4593 idk, I saw that in the dev server I guess
15:54
One in a million shot right here!
With that said,I really like this tank...Imma buy this thing!
Wow that AP have really good post pen
putting it here so even if you may already know, someone else who may see this can at least find out, that commander gunner thing you mention at 6:53 that confused you, the faster outer ring when the avenger hits you is the commander override time IF your commander was alive, but the avenger killed both the gunner and commander, meaning the loader had to replace the gunner, the small inner circle timer
As usual, tip quality content ODD. Thanks for the entertainment.
"i'm stuck on the wall i'm stuck on the wall i'm stupid" had me laughing, that is SOOO me it's hilarious. stupid walls
I loved all my bulldogs, but the Sabot is a must for me, Nothing amuses me more than heavy tanks thinking they are big man to a bulldog.
its really good. like really good. the br makes it like a hellcat but at 5.0
"He's about to die to Borek."
::dies to Borek::
great vehicle vs vehicles we all know how to kill quite easily = nuke Great vid Baws!
Nice tank! They should add a Bulldog at 4.0 limited to the stock APCR from the german M41 xD
16:28 rare footage of oddbawz cursing
i have been watching this man for almost year now and im still debating if he's irish scottish or british
Amazing how you manage to maincannon planes in almost every video.😅
That solid shot slaps hard
Its funny to see a small tank with a big punch.😂😂👍👍
If you scout the tank and follow it up with a shot, you get more sl and rp. That's what I do
You should try out the new pvkv IV, I don’t know if it’s any good but it looks interesting
he just announced it in the last part of his video that this will be played next,brother.
Seems to help to pay for your Premium solid shot AP too, you get actual Premium Spall too.
Premium teammates included?! Best purchase possible 😂
Burrito 501 is now a canon for me
This tank has more pen than the 17pounder... and is a 5.0 light which outperforms essentially ever 5.0 medium in one or multiple ways...
So this last update gave us two OP premiums
Hey guys, I have a question: How do I change the bulldogs weird commanders view. Every time I press B there is a weird view and when I press it again I finally am in the commanders view. Thanks for any advice :)
Wow, an actually good Chinese copy-paste tank
That shell is insane. I have no idea how it's so effective.
The Bulldog is not boring, you just play him like M3/M5 Stuart's. Turn off your brain and just go, scout targets, kill targets and go home with the win :D Awesome tank
This not even fair...
I think the commander taking over thing is as follows (complete guesswork but it’s my interpretation):
Fast control: Commander can shoot but not aim
Slower control: Gunner is replaced
welp, now odd got some social score
I really enjoyed the American bulldog and the German version is incredible, but this thing at 5.0 shreds.
Thats a very good tank. Although it does not get the APDS, it is insane that you get to bully people around 4.0. The thing is though, the APDS on the M41A1 is very useless now. Slight angle on the panther UFP, it will bounce. So this only having this in 5.0 without the APDS is actually great.
this thing can face 4.0 tanks
thats nuts
Epic run.
All this M41A3 and the M41A1 are their power traverse back, they were literally designed to have a easier to use and thus faster stystem than the M41 (like the Germans one)
It amazes me that you can kill a tank and not be bombed 28 seconds later.
I have to try my hardest to get another kill before I'm revenge bombed %95 of the time lol.
Just bought this 2 Days ago perfect timing
Would love to see you play the RBT-5 for the Soviets!
Odd main-gunning a plane per video
I love your accent even though I cannot understand most of it😂❤
For a while I wanted a vehicle to grind China And I think bulldog suits me
Meanwhile when I get looked at funny in a bulldog I die lol
When u play light tank but forget ur a light tank so never scout 😂
How are you getting 1 shot kills with hvars, I hit 88 flak truck with 3 of them and they dont die
15:55 💀 Most ‘oh cool. Anyways’ plane kill ever
I couldn't be bothered to spade the german one, but it is an alright vehicle. Still think the Jpz 4-5 is better and I implore you to play it.
idk if it's the short map, low BR or the fact that the trees were epileptic, but the second map was a nail bitter
My mans really said the P-51 is bad in Ground RB...
This thing will be 5.7 before I take my next poop.
OddBawZ is the bomb
How the hell are you pulling stats while on the move? Multiple people have lost ability to pull the stats (N) button since update dropped.
Hi odd would it be possible for you to try the mars 15 it’s a interesting Litlle tank and is very fun to play
The Bulldog is doable at 6.0 without the APDS, so at 5.0 its would probably be a dream.
Makes all the same tier (US) mediums look so outdated.
What's so bad about the p51 in ground br?
P51 is actually good with custom loadouts for ground rb
Second game: where are those premium team mates from first match :P
On the other team, clearly! lol
@@OddBawZ of course
