That is very likely.

Even when I end up fighting them with Centurion mk3 firing APDS and they still non-pen!
Yes. I have been in this situation and died before because THREE SHOTS just disintegrated. Followed up by him shooting straight through my historically inaccurate upper front plate which should have 300 mm of armor rather than the 75 MM IT HAS.
@@commandoepsilon4664 yeah, I almost find it funny that this tank has a poor reputation, but my experience fighting against them had been the opposite. Most of my kills have been in the side or rear, rarely from the front thanks to volumetric. I swear volumetric is the cause of most of my anger, on top of fighting against tanks with better tech that I hate playing anything above 7.0.
The Hori is surprisingly a tough nut to crack in hulldown positions. Even with a Leopard 1's HEAT or T44-100/T-54s, it is difficult to properly hit it critically if you don't aim properly
I actually quite enjoy the Ho-Ri. Its painful a lot of the time, but since it relies on people being stupid and not shooting your superstructure, it sometimes works.
I get upset at folks saying this should be removed. I get it didn't exist but it could have and it works in WT to give unique vehicles to a niche nation. It's not like it's annoying to deal with either since it got shunted SO high in BR.
Please play the CA Lorraine or AMX 10RC, both are fun vehicles, especially the Lorraine, it’s faster than the Lorraine 40T at a much lower battle rating with the same cannon
Yeah, the gun on the Lorraine plus its speed is amazing. In competent hands it can literally destroy half the team. And it gets and upgraded variant: Foch
Not really, even with a semi decent crew the reload is sub 10 seconds which for 273 mm of pen and a ton of shrapnel is really nice, plus a high reverse speed sort of nullifies it
Back when the French first came in and they un-nerfed solid shot to a reasonable extent I liked the CA Lorraine, but I guess the German players bitched enough that they re-nerfed solid. And with a high chance of not killing with a single shot CALorraines reload time is a recipe for frustration.
I love how in War Thunder Canon Japan went from building no heavy tanks at all to building a super heavy TD that also drives around more swiftly than a sherman
One of the problems of Japan is that if we start taking away 'paper' or fake shit we're left with very few things. Hell, for the Japanese air tree I woudn't be agains the addition of the J7W2 (i.e. Jet Shinden, blueprint existed but never made) simply because the idea existed and the Japanese trees need more stuff on them.
the way this is "fake" is the armour layout (and that stupid hatch allowing more gun depression) and engine specs are completely made-up, the design itself does exist but thats not the problem
@@naamadossantossilva4736 I strongly disagree. Japan was one of the big 3 axis powers in WW2 and produced many aircraft and ships. You can't remove a whole nation just because of the ground tree.
Especially when you are at 7.3 and get an uptier it's atgm hell so you lose 10k instantly. Although I have had rounds where I've eaten 9 atgms and still survived, those two plates of spaced armor serve wonders if you are front facing someone and get penned
I just gotta say while playing this in the background I expected to finish this entire video before my match ended. I was being tag teamed by four Ta-152's and just as I was about to die the mission ended. Apparently our B-17 JP, G5N, and G8N bum rushed through a whole squadron and got their bombs off on the bases and airfield. If you're out there, you gentlemen deserve a drink on me.
I've got fond memories of the Ho-Ri production on release, coming in right around peak IS-6/906 spam. Bumrushing IS-6's who struggled to pen you and cupola sniping them was a great way to make clubbers lose their shit.
I second this, the low shell count makes it challenging but it's 90mm shell has an absurd 520g of aphe explosive filler at 3.7, so anything you pen just lights up like a roman candle
@@Aurora-pi6jr it also has surprisingly good survivability because of small size and the crew separation...plus, the gunner is on the opposite side of most tanks so I found that most of the time they shot the wrong crewmember
Another great video from spooks, lovely ❤️ P.S. You should try Chi-Ha LG (no need for HE rounds, SAPCBC is more than enough) For an extremely open top vehicle, its does extremely well, even in near CQC of cities, 120mm naval Cannon just slaps anything out of existance, only thing to cause me any major trouble was KV-1
The "Production" version is one of my favorite tanks in the game, quick good gun good armor the only thing that stopped the fun for me was the repair cost 20k was absurd
I stopped playing it when I’d get a negative reward for a win if I died that game with mid to low score performance. Mostly I just play early-war , tier 1 premiums, or BR 8.0+ with my AH-1S Kisazaru for CAS
I love this tank, it helped me grind most of Japanese ground tree Also could you play the ST-A3? It's kind of like an ugly M48 with paper thin armour and autoloader at a lower BR
I wonder why gajin went with this version of the ho-ri despite the fact that had the ho-ri been produced, they would probably have gone for the ho-ri ii design (it looked more like a jagdtiger and also features dual 20mms on the engine deck).
@Alpha Stronghold true, lmao. After all, they made a big deal about the coelian not being historical, but then we still have the radpanzer 90 which irl had a similar level of completion.
I love how he says the tank isnt capable in alot of aspects but continues to prove otherwise during his gameplay, this goes for everything he complains about
The sound effects and images make me laugh so hard. Great work Spookston. Also, could you play the American M60a3 TTS? Since they changed the BR compression, it is SLIGHTLY more enjoyable to play. Would love to see some commentary on that!
4:16 Shots 1-5: Clearly missed. Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control). Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses.
Never played the Prototype, but the Production is incredible, IDK why but apparently 200g is enough to overpressure anything. If you look at the destruction cam it literally overpressures crew from the inside. you can shoot almost anywhere in most vehicles and the entire crew will die.
1:19 The closest thing ive had happen to me like that was waaaaay back, maybe 2014-2016, i was in I think the Jadpanzer IV, had a kv-2 ricochet off my angled front plate, the shell flew up about a meter, air bursted, and killed me. I'm pretty sure this was before overpressure or even hull break was a thing too.
Would love to see you do a video on the T29, I remember it being unbelievably strong upon release due to a plate that separated the driver etc to the ammo. Would enjoy seeing if it being 7.0 was deserved
in my opinion, the ho-ri production's situation is like the maus. it gets so much powerful at 6.3-7.0 but it also gets severe backpain when it gets into 7.7-8.3 battles ( o____0)
Part of it is your crew’s visual range skill and how much unrendered things are between you and the tank. Smoke screens will also cause a tank to not render in at longer distances
@@alexlongfur2515 I've had it where the smoke Id launched dissipated and not but 3 seconds later a squad of 3 pop rendered in about 50 meters away. I'm not sure if that has something to do with the keen vision skills but its a bit scummy for my experience haha
I love this stupid spotting thing. I've literally been murdered multiple times by people I should've had an easy kill on because they were sitting behind some object that made them invisible when they shouldn't have been. Been killed by a light tank sitting behind a chainlink fence, and even a Tiger sitting behind a LAMP POST.
0:48 its actually the most heterosexual way to stand, given the dimensions of the vehicle. Requiring that they be upright and in position to do their jobs, they're effectively maximizing the possible space between their dicks given the distance, bc that would like, be gay or sm if they were close right? Can't have that
Now that brs have been adjusted, hori is a beast. Only heats are capable of penning this if you angle properly and nobody seems to know how to deal with it. Ive gotten 4 nukes with it in the past 3 weeks alone. There are so many tiger 2s, t26 and is-3,4m,6 roaming around and they cant do anything against you if they dont kbow to break your barrel or tracks or hit the lower front plate.
Day 6: Hey Spook, would you do a video on Czech tanks? How did they perform against British and French tanks? Were they liked by the crews? They were apparently quite good tanks, since they served in Chile until 1988.
Your BGM makes me hope for a CNC Generals remaster... That'll never happen though. You can't get away with half of what that game does and says anymore. lol
You should play the DF105. It's way too survivable for what it is from my experience playing it and it is ridiculously stable for a tank that has no stabilizer.
"How am I not dead yet?" The advantage of having 1/3 of crew members in front of tank, so even if your 4 members were turned into mashed potatoes by APHE from behind, you can still fight back... poorly.
I love the Ho Ri Prototype. It’s gotten me one of my only two nukes ever in an 18-kill ground RB game. Insanity. 6.7 is too high for it, but with a maxed Ace crew, I still do work with it.
The thing I personally like about both Ho-Ri that its fast (for something that weight 60+ tons). It was straight away OP at 6.0 but I think 6.7 is a bit too much
I dont rly get why gaijin is not implementing paper tanks anymore. Those unic projects can make the game more interesting and diverse, in terms of the gameplay experience. Plus you can balance those things as you wish due to the fact, that it never existed
You should play the IS2(1944) .Another tank with alot of HE filler that it will one shot anything and overpressure anything even heavy tanks when you hit the barrel is the IS(1944)/ IS2 no 32, really good heavy tank and the 1944 is my personal favourite tank I got more than 2200 kills with the IS2(1944). Also you can pen the gap underneath the mantlet and UFP of the M103.
8:07 ''We are losing the war over here.'' 10:45 ''What is that? Is that a B24? Are we about to get carpet bombed?'' Decrypted and translated Japanese radio messages 1945.
To be fair the german tech tree is doing just fine without them, as its a major tech tree with a metric shit load of vehicles, it really doesnt need them, japan on the other hand would lose one of its few 7.0 line up pieces and would have a huge fucking gap between the sph and the type 16p, even with the ho ri its still bad but god a fucking 6.3 to 8.7 jump, nah screw that.
I do love my Ho-Ri Proto... and being 105 the HE is actually useful for more than just open vehicles. I also find people don't know enough about them to know that the most outside of the flat armour is the weakest, if they shoot closer to the middle it gets thicker and thicker.
I love seeing WT videos on "fake" tanks like this as a WoT player. Like, over half the tanks in WoT are fake. It's funny seeing everyone question the realism of the tank in this game, where as Wargaming could just invent their own idea on a piece of paper and nobody would even question the real-world accuracy of it.
the star trek guy from the start of the video, jaboody dubs has a video about him and it made me laugh so much. had just watched it and then watched this. coincidence?
Yes, I know it was a B-17. I have been very sleep deprived recently.
You should have played ho-ri production instead. It's a much faster tank and armor still works fine

The advantage of having 1/3 of crew members in front of tank, so even if your 4 members were turned into mashed potatoes by APHE from behind, you can still fight back... poorly.
I think you would like to try the class 3p, as it fits a aggressive play style
I love the Ho Ri Prototype. It’s gotten me one of my only two nukes ever in an 18-kill ground RB game. Insanity.
6.7 is too high for it, but with a maxed Ace crew, I still do work with it.
The thing I personally like about both Ho-Ri that its fast (for something that weight 60+ tons). It was straight away OP at 6.0 but I think 6.7 is a bit too much
They should rename it from Ho-Ri Prototype to Ho-Ri Imajination
Pls play warrior ifv, take it to top tier if you want a challenge. I have it in my 11.0 line till something else comes along.
My hatred at 7.0 fighting the Ho Ri Production though; gah that armor is trolly.
I dont rly get why gaijin is not implementing paper tanks anymore. Those unic projects can make the game more interesting and diverse, in terms of the gameplay experience. Plus you can balance those things as you wish due to the fact, that it never existed
1:10 Americans: WHAT THE F IS A KILOMETER
You should play the IS2(1944) .Another tank with alot of HE filler that it will one shot anything and overpressure anything even heavy tanks when you hit the barrel is the IS(1944)/ IS2 no 32, really good heavy tank and the 1944 is my personal favourite tank I got more than 2200 kills with the IS2(1944).
Also you can pen the gap underneath the mantlet and UFP of the M103.
But the reload is a killer
8:07 ''We are losing the war over here.''
10:45 ''What is that? Is that a B24? Are we about to get carpet bombed?''
Decrypted and translated Japanese radio messages 1945.
Could you play the M-51? It’s not the best but it can get the job done
4:33 This interaction was brought to you by IAPA - the International Association of Paid Actors.
The Coelian, Tiger II 105 and Panther II get removed for being fake, yet this is perfectly fine
The German tech tree didn't need them the Japanese tech tree did
@@alisontshangana doesn’t matter, either they remain consistent or let us have fun. Let’s not start picking and choosing NOW
@@DS-wl5pk I'm just saying, not picking sides
To be fair the german tech tree is doing just fine without them, as its a major tech tree with a metric shit load of vehicles, it really doesnt need them, japan on the other hand would lose one of its few 7.0 line up pieces and would have a huge fucking gap between the sph and the type 16p, even with the ho ri its still bad but god a fucking 6.3 to 8.7 jump, nah screw that.
@@DS-wl5pk yes it does, its called balance, germany isnt in desperate need for vehicles, a minor tech tree like japan is.
aint no way he got killed by the same guy in the same plane in 2 different matches
its like a modernized ferdinand
the loaders: Im GaE DaBaDe dAbAdIe
I do love my Ho-Ri Proto... and being 105 the HE is actually useful for more than just open vehicles. I also find people don't know enough about them to know that the most outside of the flat armour is the weakest, if they shoot closer to the middle it gets thicker and thicker.
THESE EDITS BRO THEY MAKE MY DAYYY
We need da BKan, real swedish autoloader. Kinda crazy AA as well
i concur with this man
imo the production is way better you get about 200mm armoured cheeks at 7.3 and the gun is a powerhouse destroying almost everything
Asking Spookston to play the Conqueror: Chapter 5
5:03 At least someone on the enemy team seems to be paying attention...
10:02 And they're still firing...
I love seeing WT videos on "fake" tanks like this as a WoT player.
Like, over half the tanks in WoT are fake. It's funny seeing everyone question the realism of the tank in this game, where as Wargaming could just invent their own idea on a piece of paper and nobody would even question the real-world accuracy of it.
1:50
you know what doesn,t have a funny flap?
AEC AA at 11.0👀
10:51 RUN FOR IT!
continuing the theme of fake tanks you should play the Flakpanzer 341
“I like that in the downtier match, I get killed pretty much right away; but in the uptier match I have 8 kills so far.”
Story of my life lol
fun fact i got my first triple ace on the HO-RI production good tank
the star trek guy from the start of the video, jaboody dubs has a video about him and it made me laugh so much. had just watched it and then watched this. coincidence?
