In War Thunder, the British Swingfire is a peculiar tank destroyer with agile anti-tank guided missiles. I actually enjoy using it a fair amount, especially since Gaijin nerfed the other ATGM carriers.

In real life, almost all vehicles equipped with that launcher had a remote targeting sight and 50-100m of cord. You were supposed to leave the vehicle in a deep defilade or open courtyard behind buildings while you hid in foliage or a building. If done right, it was also possible to park it down side streets since the missile could make 90° turns.

The swingfire is a verhicle I like a lot because it's the type that does one thing, but does that one thing *really* well. It can sit behind literally any hill and engage enemies between ~100m and 4km, and does so very effectively. The independently loaded tubes is an incredibly nice feature, and the sight being so far up as well as the ammo pool being quite big is very convenient and user friendly. If you haven't read up on the Swingfire missile IRL you absoluytely should, it's even more insane than in the game in rea llife with almost 90 degree turns right after launch due to how incredibly manouverable it was. If it had its true capabilities in-game it could engage things right up in front of you quite quickly too instead of firing in the super large arch like every other regular missile type.

The swingfire used to be a lot worse, idk when they fixed it but it couldn't kill shit missiles with half the TNT equivalent could oneshot.

Swingfire on release had the missile follow the middle of the sight regardless of where the crosshair was... meaning it was not effected by depression. That was changed two years ago. It did however benefit from the improved overpressure system, being the actual warhead is a HEAT/HESH Hybrid. The recent patch has done nothing to the Swingfire other than introduce a visible cable, the other ATGMS were simply given realistic effects (the missile loses altitude just before the engine ignites), Making them less OP. But the Swingfire was not effected because it's very design was to overcome these problems in real life (It shoots upwards to negate any drop of the missile and to make it easier to hit the top of a tank). Swingfire missile was released in the early 60's and was not replaced until the 00's by Javelin, Even the later Striker is older than the M901 ITV. Since it was released, i have always had a Swingfire in my lineup, even at top tier. I do however take the striker as well since that was released. It's extremely satisfying taking out T-90's with a 60 year old missile. Just need to find cover and be slightly elevated, aim for the top of the enemy tank and no armour stops it.
@commandoepsilon4664
@commandoepsilon4664 Жыл бұрын
Well, they said they updated missiles flight model to be more realistic, so it makes sense an ATGM that can make a 90 degree pivot out of the launch tub would be more maneuverable than others (as some one else noted they use thrust vectoring.) Personally I find it funny that when they made that change basically all ATGMs got way harder to control except the swingfire, which actually got a lot better (you can now hit targets within 50m where as before it was more like a 150m to 200m minimum) almost like Gaijin just admitted they were giving British ATMGs worse flight models just because. I can't really say anything about the damage, from my experience it is still all over the place.
@babalonkie
@babalonkie Жыл бұрын
@@commandoepsilon4664 If you look at the history of the Swingfire... you actually start to really appreciate it. Swingfire was way ahead of it's time. The sighting mechanism can actually be detached from the vehicle and used by infantry on foot. Allowing the vehicle to fire whilst 0 parts are exposed. It was also the inspiration behind the Javelin. From the start of the TOW missiles life, America insisted that Britain ditched the Swingfire and purchase TOW missiles stating that the lighter and smaller TOW was better. TOW was infact inferior to Swingfire in absolutely everyway and as the TOW evolved, it just copied the Swingfire, eventually becoming just as big as the Swingfire completely negating Americas points. TOW always required a line of sight from the launcher, whilst the Swingfire never did (It could be manually controlled or controlled via an detached/Attached optical device). This bothered America so much that they said they would restrict access to other products... UK still said no and then partnered with Sweden, Germany and Italy on various projects. This forced USA to make the Javelin... and only then did UK say ok. After Javelin was designed, TOW was upgraded to Radio-Controlled rather than guide by wire, in a attempt to keep TOW relevant on the battlefield.

Especially for higher BR ones. I could take out the VAB Mephisto, and risk facing APS/IRCM that literally nullifies it entirely, or I could take out an AMX-10RC or an AMX-30 with LRF/Thermals/APFSDS.

@@DominicDarrell This is a skill issue, its not an amazing tank, but it can be played very effectively, last match I got 9 kills 0 deaths in the Conqueror, plenty of bounces. If you know anything about the vehicles design and history you would know how to deploy it and it is effective when deployed correctly. OddBawz played it lately and he likes it quite a lot, Phly played it, got plenty of kills but said it is mid and I dont disagree, fact is though that you can definitely rack up kills and also bounce shots so long as you are in a good position and facing targets that you are comfortable facing. The Conqueror is one of the most HEAT resistant Heavy Tanks in the game with its spaced armor and very thick strongpoints, HEAT is forced to target crew one by one and/or get lost in the overlapping breach area. The APDS should be doing more damage than it is, the Chieftains round which is slightly heavier and also slower seems to have a much girthier damage profile which the Conqueror should be getting too with its more brittle sabot material, resulting in post penetration shattering which really should be deadly to crew inside a vehicle.

Fun fact, the sight control thing has been patched out for all vehicles that have only atgms. It still works for vehicles that have normal munitions though.

Hey Spookston, have you considered playing a whole line-up instead of one vehicle? Like, playing Britain 7.3 instead of just the Swingfire. That way you have more options depending on the map. Could add more variety

I love the Swingfire. Amazing for shooting over your cover and getting cheeky ATGM kills across long distances while being concealed. The latter part of the video showcases this quite well.

Hey spookston, love the content. I know you hate naval, but I urge you to try the USS Wilkinson, Moffet, and Helena. I'm particularly fond of the Wilkinson, 2 autoloading 127mm guns, they pack more filler than the regular 5 inch guns and you have 2 autoloading twin barrel 76mm turrets that have radio fuse rounds, I absolutely annihilate planes and it chews up ships pretty quickly especially at close range. It's a blast to play.

Swingfire also used to have "feature" when re-munitioning was faster than reloading, so if you managed to stay at cap you got increased fire rate. You could quite go "artillery mode" this way }:3
