Zero pilots who get annoyed at planes running blows my mind. Since gaijin decided they shouldn't have their historically bad medium-high speed turn, running to get an energy advantage is really the only counter to them. Do they honestly expect people to just get slow for them so they can outturn them?
I actually had a run-in with a Zero like that when I was grinding the Yak 3U. I was in the Soviet P-63 on Kalhkin Gol, and a Zero repeatedly tried to turn-fight me, but because I've played Zeroes and I know they're slow in a straight line, I'd make a pass on the enemy Zero and extend out. And everytime I'd extend out, the Zero kept saying in chat "fight me bitch". My guy, I can't turn fight you, but I can outrun you. Why wouldn't I do that? A few minutes later, he turned around to engage an La-5 and an IL-2, which I turned around to engage him. Would you believe he kept insulting me in chat for not throwing the game for him?
Not that they didn't have their historicqlly bad high speed turns, all pilots pull unrealistically high Gs which makes certain planes perform unrealistically in spite of War Thunder's respectable physics engine.
A6m5: "You're the last man standing" Defyn: "So are you in a sec" Defyn: *murders the b7a2* Man felt the air getting denser and colder around him after that one lmao, amazing
@@samuellatta6774 it would easily be 5.7 or even 6.0. but then, you got things like the La-9 which is also insane at low alt and is also quite maneuverable.
It still breaks at 685kmh so it can't bnz zeroes. Plus it's guns deal 1/4 of the damage yak 3p guns deal. It got nerfed on this patch, can't spiral climb K4s anymore.
overcommitting is a death sentence. I've been lately pulling 5 kill games solidly because of pure patience... If someone's gonna goof up, better be the enemy before you do.
you are the best! I never could do that. When I fly WW2 plane RB, I always have low patience and was too stress during the long period of dog fight. After I spaded top tier jet with high G missile and play with fast gameplay, I never want to go back to WW2 RB to reseach another nation tech tree again.
Well, the matter of taste. I'm complete opposite, finding WW2 prop BRs the most satisfying (and I personally have no affection towards jets at all, props>jets anytime). I came to WT after reading "Chatos are attacking!" (about soviet pilots in the war in Spain), so my interest gradually went from I-16 onto Yak-1, then 1B and later on to the Yak-3. No regrets.
I mean most A6M2/M3/M5 pilots just use their obvious advantage of superior turning. But they say good bye to half of their airspeed/energy and i doubt they can get that quickly. Problem is, the zero’s turning is so tight that once you even try to go back up for another BnZ run they’ll have a small window for a shot.
That was the OG Yak-3 we're talking about, and yep, 24 german fighters against 18 soviet with a final score of 15:1. Also Lipfert (sorry if I butchered his 2nd name) remembers how he AND his wingman couldn't shoot down a single Yak-3 when they first saw it.
Good video Defyn, didnt realise how crazy this thing was. Could you try the C205 Serie1 sometime because its the lowteir equivalent of this Yak just with even worse armament...
@@RandomSwede-1 yeah no doubt mate, an average performing plane with good/great armament. I'd take it over the C.205 S1 80% of the time purely for the reduced kill time.
I never expected them to lower the yak 3u's br. it had great performance and the better solution would be to give researchable 23mm guns. which I am pretty sure of were a real life option.
I don't think that the Yak-3u had 23mm as an option, because it never left the prototype fase. Due to wars being ended and jet engines being the future. Even the La-9 program got in trouble because of that.
@@thegenericguy8309 well one shot is enough to tear off a wing so i think it would, plus the yak 9p has a 23mm with 75 rounds so i think it could work out fine
2:32 i realized that fires are never luck, they are how much you damage a fuel tank if you lightly hit it and its on fire, diving might put it out if you hit it and its heavily damaged or destroyed (orange/red/black) it has a chance depending on how damaged the wing is to run out of fuel as a crap player who gets shot at alot with a critical mind i notice these things, also the P-39N-0 has the best destruction model change my mind
I find the tracer rounds to be very useful in both aiming and in fucking up planes. The bullets explode so they delete control surfaces and kill pilots instantly if it gets in the cockpit.
The last battle is a perfect example of how the blacklist button can actually save you. The chat itself can be used to weaponize your own agitation and frustration.

@Abrabam Louw got all the yaks, best one is the Yak9T and Yak3 at 4.0 but they face the J2M2 and all Japan OPness, so they get slapped 9/10 times by a weeabo with a booster on it, Yak9U is really good at 4.3, climbs really great, russian 12.7s are very good but the 20 is just sht, Yak3U is another good one with the Yak3VK107 but it's a premium, Yak3U is OP below 2K, the higher you go the worse, Yak9P has 3 20s I think runs out of them fast because they aren't good, you can change one cannon for a 23 or 37 I think but I would love it if you could only carry 1 o 2 37s instead of 2 20s a 1 of them, YAK9ut is shit already overheated at 1k when climbing doesn't turn Yak rip speed, very heavy
@@stefanmichaelsenzegarra5688 Late response but, 3U is the best yak if you enjoy playing energy while also turn fighting with people. Great energy usage, only downside is the cannons which can be great with mastery.
Smartly played :) A6M5 pilot should play arcade like me, because I don't like long 1v1 and chasing around the map. Simply, he plays the wrong game option if he has no patience . By the way, I love the Yak-3U :)
After a whole month without touching it I got on it yesterday, first match nearly reversed a spitfire lf mk9 and got kekwd by a 109G-6. Then after some malding I went to next match: Full uptier, got 5 kills that could have been eight if an A7M didn't third party three stalled F2G at 5km of altitude... what a rate monster.
I dont know for yall but i mostly listen to your vids on a phone. And that highliner green color for your speed atl and stuff makes it hard to actually see what your trying to show case because i personally cant even read your speeed/alt :( great vidz tho
This is by far my favorite plane , the raw power on this thing has saved my ass so many times after i made a wrong turn or went vertical when i shouldn't have. It just doesn't care :D And it turn fights like a champ as well .. if the guns were any better it would be blatantly overpowered.
Stat cards don't mean anything. And just because one plane is better at rate fighting, it doesn't make it better at overall dogfighting. One plane can be amazing in a rate fight, but if the enemy is taking you into the vertical and your plane is absolute crap at energy retention or stall speed or low speed maneuvering, you're shit out of luck. Turn rate is just one facet of dogfighting. And as Defyn stated, the J2M was in a more favorable position.
@@herehere3184 I agree and haven't flown much Russia compared to other nations mostly because of the guns. But recently I saw the following patch notes "Parameters relating to the resistance of an aircraft’s materials (cladding and power train) to secondary shell fragments have been fixed. Previously, aircraft and helicopters had an inflated survivability when they were under fire from anti-aircraft shells with remote detonators." and it made me wonder if that was just for ground based VT type shells but in testing the 20mm cannons with FI-T shells they do seem to hit a lot harder vs fighters than they used to from testing in both test flights and normal AirRB matches. Unfortunately I haven't see anyone else corroborate it.
Probably late, but have you tried cutting the throttle when divivng in a yak ? They still reach decent enough speed but the risk of ripping off wings is considerably lower
@@DEFYN Well for some reason nobody has been doing that even when risking to rip off the wings. Like, maybe there's some hidden quirk to it that I don't know about
@@lapantony i think it mostly comes down to wasting energy. Like you can get to a lower altitude with a better chance of not ripping, but not going full speed has costed you energy. Now if you want to pull back up from the dive you won't be able to reach the altitude you would, had you been going full speed. If you are confident you won't need to then it's fine, but many times it's better to take a couple more turns to reengage but still maintain a better energy state.
No DEFYN that's not how you do it in this game. Promoting to fight toxicity with even more toxicity is just ridiculous. Just keep silent and focus on your play. Winning that way is much more satisfying.
To play? No. It gets shit on by everything. F-80s, G 91, F-84s, etc. All can dump on you and not try. I was very disappointed by all the 262s in Air RB (even the up gunned premium one). The MM was painful. Maybe I just didn't fly it right (that's possible because I'm new to jets) but it was horrible trying to fly them. You could try them in Tank RB 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️ I plan too
@@jimmiarreltherford8464 I suggested 6.7 so it has a higher chance to downtier to 6.0 and its actually(believe it or not) fun to play and useable in a 6.0 game you can engage on your terms and not get dumpstered immediately by 50s.now you may be asking won't F84s and F80s still catch?no if your at height you out accelerate them and will be faster

It´s kinda unfair that you´re fighting 1942 planes in a 1946 plane. If anything, the Yak 3 in any configuration ought to face the 109 G6 at the lowest downtier. The Yak3U ought to face the G14 at the lowest downtier.
@@maxim2499 From August 11 notes: "Parameters relating to the resistance of an aircraft’s materials (cladding and power train) to secondary shell fragments have been fixed. Previously, aircraft and helicopters had an inflated survivability when they were under fire from anti-aircraft shells with remote detonators." I did some testing myself and it doesn't appear to only affect damage from ground based VT rounds from what I can tell. FI-T shells vs fighters seem to be much more effective both in test flights and matches. I haven't seen anyone else corroborate my observations though so I cannot say with certainty, just that in my opinion they seem to work better.

To play? No. It gets shit on by everything. F-80s, G 91, F-84s, etc. All can dump on you and not try. I was very disappointed by all the 262s in Air RB (even the up gunned premium one). The MM was painful. Maybe I just didn't fly it right (that's possible because I'm new to jets) but it was horrible trying to fly them. You could try them in Tank RB 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️ I plan too
@@jimmiarreltherford8464 I suggested 6.7 so it has a higher chance to downtier to 6.0 and its actually(believe it or not) fun to play and useable in a 6.0 game you can engage on your terms and not get dumpstered immediately by 50s.now you may be asking won't F84s and F80s still catch?no if your at height you out accelerate them and will be faster
@@ihatenothing444 I can try it the next time I play. I've never know to out accelerate a F-80 and the 84 "Rocket Boys" are just annoying lol I might've misread your question. Sorry
@@jimmiarreltherford8464 at 5000 meters plus you gourmet accelerate them also 262A1A is currently 7.0 I was asking what people thought about it being 6.7
@@ihatenothing444 Ok yeah. So I did read that wrong before hand. 5K meters huh?? I may just have to side climb then. I'll try it out. Thanks
It´s kinda unfair that you´re fighting 1942 planes in a 1946 plane.
If anything, the Yak 3 in any configuration ought to face the 109 G6 at the lowest downtier.
The Yak3U ought to face the G14 at the lowest downtier.
are the Shvaks still trash or actually usable?
they work "good enough"
I think they recently got buffed since they made changes to Frag rounds. Tracer belts seem to work very well vs fighters right now.
Still ass, but my friend said he had a good time with tracers
@@ltankhsd Changes to fragmentation rounds? Like more fragments, area of effect or damage...?
@@maxim2499 From August 11 notes: "Parameters relating to the resistance of an aircraft’s materials (cladding and power train) to secondary shell fragments have been fixed. Previously, aircraft and helicopters had an inflated survivability when they were under fire from anti-aircraft shells with remote detonators." I did some testing myself and it doesn't appear to only affect damage from ground based VT rounds from what I can tell. FI-T shells vs fighters seem to be much more effective both in test flights and matches. I haven't seen anyone else corroborate my observations though so I cannot say with certainty, just that in my opinion they seem to work better.
Defyn! I love long videos! Pls make more :)
i usually get put up against allies in this plane. it's pretty fun. my problem is my connection and de-sync. it makes aiming much harder
Can you do an H-81 video, please.
If only my aim was good enough for 240, rounds to be workable
