I constantly get up tiered in gb maybe it's because I bought a premium a rank above me but that doesn't make much sense like I'm not trying to fight leopards and early abrahams at fucking 7.0 it's terrible
I really wish the Lightning didnt get screwed by gaijin. There were reports of a competition between the F-104 and Lightning. The lightning was faster in climb, faster at high alt, had better interception rate. And manouvered better. Only place it didnt perform better? Low altitude. And that was still a close one.
nah dont dis on the 30mm ADEN cannon its pretty good and considering that any aircraft that has them has 2 with the exception of the hunters that have 4 and the jaguar IS that has 1
Only the SMT is any trouble, the MiG-21F-13 is slower and has worse energy retention than the MiG-19, which is the true bane of pencils as it doesn't bleed all of its speed chasing F-104s into space (and the higher you go, the easier time the knockoff sidewinders will have catching your hot engine)
The Japanese F104 is slightly better. At 10.3, you get AIM 9 Ps, and it rarely gets uptiered or even put at its own tier Fighting MiG-15s with 6 AIM 9s is amazing
How the fuck you didn't get up tiers, for me every game was against mig-23 and phantom (and kfir). And how did you saw an mig-15 even before they were 8.7 at much and 9.3 for the shengyang F-5 (Wich I don't remember if is an mig-15 or 17) I would argue that f-104A and C are better because the whole 1 down BR
This is my main, almost all my SL comes from this plane. You outrun every missile at mach1 at 1.5km range except magic maybe even if its a complete uptier
the F-104 is one of the only truly OP planes in war thunder, if you play your cards right you’re legitimately invincible, especially with the F-104C which is a direct upgrade at the exact same BR
@@timmycrockett3348 You can't be caught or fired at by half the lobby at your normal BR, you're more than capable in an uptier, and you're a literal god in a match that doesn't have enemy 104s or MiG-19s. You can also dogfight MiG-19s at high altitude if you know what you're doing, and they have to go high altitude to get you since they don't have long range missiles at that BR.
I wanna see someone make a fictional super sonic heavy attack aircraft for this or another similar game. It can rocket by at mach 1-3 with multiple auto cannons or rotary cannons. Maybe even that crazy 180mm automatic tank cannon from the April fools. Put 4 of them on it. Just designed to zip by as fast as possible and pound with cannons.
bulies planes at 9.3, the lightning f6 wants to have word as it has much better missiles and possibly a better radar and dare i say faster than the f104A
I can easily see that *A few players are saying F104 sucks but it's their skill issue Ignore them and just use this monster before this thing goes to 10.3
It SHOULD be a nightmare to fly, especially at low level and landing. I can't remember how many Luftwaffe pilots died flying this in peacetime, but it's a huge number: something between 40 and 100.
It’s the missile that happens to have a gun and a pilot.
Speed is life.
Speed is life, altitude is life insurance, this has both
“Gotta move a little faster than that son, speed is life.”
“Dodge this”
"Vipers got you in the pipe, 5-5"
“Visual clear I got good tone.”
And when I play it, it's permanently going into 10.3 battles
Same, playing it right now always with A 10 s and ardvarks

The lightning is very impressive in real life. Such a shame that it handles like a retired dad of 4 with a fresh beer belly in game.
Lighting 😍
I love seeing these things when im in my SMT. Theyre helpless speed noodles that cant fight back :D
"The skies belong to me pilot, nowhere to run, nowhere to hide"
I JUST DIED 3 TIMES TO F-104 BEFORE WATCHING THIS
Modern boom & zoom
P E N C I L 😶
Haha starfighter goes brrrrrr
The goated plane. F104S is still one of my most played vehicles
Thefact that its capable of going mach 1 is incredible
The lighting is better in almost every way but the gun
"I am stronger, i am faster. I am better then you!" - That one lighting that i couldnt come close to in F-104 because he was so damn fast.

It’s called “Starfighter” for a reason: it tried to fight the sun one time

As a Mig 15 pilot, I almost always forget about these, never have died to one in 300 games… but I always forget and get jumpscared from near misses
Laughs in su25 main with freelook key 😂 ive learned to play victim in it they come for me every time 😂
F104 v ariet v mig 19 are the 3 op planes that all can't touch each other but can touch all others
The F104 ZAZA is the ultimate pencil, you count how good it is by how many 4th gen fighters you can shit on.
Lightning F53 and F6:🤣 nah I am faster and better missile
Fastest plane OF ITS TIME
@@OutpostBravo For 2 years (if you count the date it was delivered to a unit).
Nah, maybe IRL, idk, but in-game the Red Tops are pretty trash (sluggish/slow with a high warhead). As a UK main I prefer 9B.
In Germany we called them, widowmaker or eifeler sagnagel(Eifel coffinnail) cause so maybe died in it lol
Nice video
Ayit can surely handle the f104
its quite a good counter if you get close enough with the AIM9D
This is my main, almost all my SL comes from this plane. You outrun every missile at mach1 at 1.5km range except magic maybe even if its a complete uptier
Ahh like how the mig 3 15 and he100 is the fastest planes of their br rating
Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon 💀
And now let's look at Italian F-104s
Not to mention, 9Bs get drastically more effective with a higher launch speed.
I rarely get downtiers always mig 21 and SU-25ks
This thing gave me a 7 kill game. It was a 1 v 7 and I won in this absolute unit.
Fastest way to make a pancake too.
Yeah its so powerful its always downtiered and no one can fight back
Only problem is up tier. I many times get up tiered to 11.0
Met it in a me 262 in ground rb 💀
the F-104 is one of the only truly OP planes in war thunder, if you play your cards right you’re legitimately invincible, especially with the F-104C which is a direct upgrade at the exact same BR
The F104A is better due to its lower weight
@@GoodboiOfficial yes but engine number bigger, neuron activation
(thanks for the tip, I can’t wait to ruin even more 8.X-9.X matches)
f104a is only op in downtiers

Can you do a VT1-2 review 😳 It’s my favourite vehicle
Please pay for one then I will :P
But I did make a video on it a while back
I always come in my f104 in brs of 8.0
F-104: It's safe up here, I'm so fast
MiG-21S about to live up to the term Interceptor: 😏😏😏😏😏😏
the F104 does outspeed the MiG-21S but both are fast yes
@@GoodboiOfficial I'm referring to how they mindlessly streak across the sky at like 7000m thinking they're safe then they get smashed with an R-3R
The vautour is somehow .3 br below this. Quite the opposite vehicle
Till you get uptiered to the viggen 💀
It looks like a pencil if you look at it closely
when you're being chased by a mig23😔
Playstyle: "Shoot and scoot"
F104A 11.0🗣️🔥🔥
Kinda what the f104 was designed for
That's called BnZ
bulies planes at 9.3, the lightning f6 wants to have word as it has much better missiles and possibly a better radar and dare i say faster than the f104A
A-plane is not real and cant hurt you
A-plane:
The G.91 in pure shock after watching its best friend get disassembled by the Vulcan at mach jesus
That thing can face sometimes f8u2 and the chances of you dodging aim9d are quite slim
It’s also in 10.00.
In real life it's a very dangerous plane.
If the mach counter goes away while you are playing the f104 your not playing it correctly
in arcade it can face F-5C
You nean realistic?
It’s the American Mig21 😂 why is that thing at 9.3?
I legitimately can’t kill f-104s in my f-5c which is a whole br ahead of it
Too Bad im only getting su25 as the enemy :(((
F-104A or F-104C?
harriers HATE this simple trick! buy now! (only 450000 SL)
9.3? Ohhhh, you mean 10.0! 9.3 is its downtier range.
No its actually 9.3 and can be downtiered to 8.3
F8 is in that br and only loses to it if it isnt paying attention. But so would an f16 so theres that.
I can easily see that *A few players are saying F104 sucks but it's their skill issue
Ignore them and just use this monster before this thing goes to 10.3
I killed one in war thunder in a 3.0
Thats if you can land your shots.. i can't hit shit with it
"Can barely turn at low speeds"
Low speed?
You mean at all?
above mach it actually turns pretty nicely
@@GoodboiOfficial tbf, I haven't used it much, rather used the phantoms to grind.
if you would ever say that the f104 isnt 11/10 your wrong
Try 10.3 one. (especially one without countermeasures) You will change your mind fast.
Ik im not dumb and they're 2 completely different planes jackass
Wow I'm early, hate the 104
Fuck everyone abusing the battlerating of that thing by the way
I hate this plane……. Its an hell to fly it
It SHOULD be a nightmare to fly, especially at low level and landing. I can't remember how many Luftwaffe pilots died flying this in peacetime, but it's a huge number: something between 40 and 100.
Did I hear the word turn because it doesn't belong in this video
America
Remember, every day is spit on a 104 pilot day.
Sincerely, a Swift pilot.
I hate this stick fighter
This shit used to be 10.0 - it was trash, then 9.7 - it was still trash and now its 9.3 and its the cancer of this br
