The elliptical wing concept wasn't new. It's benefits were first published 1907 by Fredrick Lanchester. Mitchell had used elliprical wings since 1924. The Spitfire elliptical wing was revolutionary though for its strong yet thin structure. I'd like to see someone build the prototype of his 1937 Type 312 with ventral radiator and carb intake under the spinner. That would have been the ultimate Spitfire.

That’s very interesting, I did not know it was Fredrick Lanchester, and yes it would have been a marvel

8:50 Where did you get that from? That's actually so incorrect. P-51s supercharger has stage 1 and stage 2 and It's effectiveness depends on the altitude. Stage 1 is the most effective at around 1.5 km. So above that or below that your engine power actually decreases. Then you will start losing engine power quite rapidly until around 3.5km. After that the stage 2 supercharger kicks in. Going higher will make your engine power go up again and it peaks at 5.8 km. Going higher again will make you lose engine power again. 5 km is okay. But performance at 4 km is actually pretty bad. So best altitudes for P-51s are 1-2km and then 5-6 km. Also saying P-51 has powerful engine is not a good statement. The power to weigh ratio is actually pretty bad. What's carrying the P-51 are It's good aerodynamics, top speed and good linear energy retention. But if you like to so much keep an eye on the premium P-51D-10. It does appear in the shop sometime. Also look into Manual Engine Controls. With it you can literally WEP indefinitely if you set the radiators to like 80-90% (depending on the map) and you don't lose much top speed due to It's radiators meredith effect.

@@Lyraine1 this is correct for the later variants but the early variants in war thunder do not not have a super charger. The original P-51 Mustang was powered by the Allison V-1710 engine, which had a single-speed, single-stage supercharger. This supercharger was designed to produce maximum power at low altitudes, and its power dropped off rapidly above 15,000 feet. And unfortunately in war thunder which this video is about, the planes do in fact preform best in the altitudes given, this is why at the start I said all of this is true except for the H variant, which has a 2 stage supercharged and different effective altitudes are given. Remember this is a game so war thunder’s altitudes of effectiveness may not be historically correct. But I appreciate the concern for historical accuracy. The rest of what you wrote is correct about its engine but due to how the game functions with drag coefficient ect the plane feels like it’s got a crazy powerful engine. In the future I will be more clear, this is one of my first few videos and i aim to improve. Thanks

The scale on which these airplanes were produced is difficult to truly appreciate. The Mosquito is one of my favorites. This was a great video. You're on the right track.

This video transformed my way of playing j2m2. I went from "What? Wait? What? From where? Oh i'm dead" to only die when I do the dumb thing of turnfighing (grinded with Zeroes, it is hard to retrain my muscle memory). But...... AND BIG BUT: What to do if you go 5 consecutive games without dying BUT WITHOUT KILLING ANYONE, literally 0 score, because both teams go full Deathmatch and you can't participate in any fight because you are doing your job maintaining energy superiority? (And no, i dont sit 6km high. I climb and START DIVING at enemies at 5.5km, sometimes 6km. But the time i spend diving is the time everyone headon each other) Anyway, the video is 100% helped me a lot already.

If you pick your engagements wisely you’ll be ok, try avoid the head on. And turn as soon as you pass them. That’s called merging and as soon as you merge successfully with j2m2 it’s an easy kill.

Very good video rexy. I would add as a weakness that the j2m2 is slower than a bunch of plane and you can use this at your advantage by extending thus negating the energy advantage. This can work only in fast plane like p51, p47, fw190. If you are playing the Raiden and a faster the plane is running away don't stick to it fake a retreat and use your low speed maneuverable and acceleration to get shot on him
@rexy90802 жыл бұрын
Agreed the point being at this elo no one is ever higher than you therefore your almost always faster or at an energy advantage if you play correctly
