I got an insane game in this thing a few months ago. In the middle of a turn fight against a MiG-15, I stalled at the top of a vertical loop, popped flaps, pilot sniped a Lightning diving on me at supersonic, then dropped back down on the MiG and blew it apart before winning a once circle with a Sabre.

[@killswitch69698]

The banshee was my first jet back in like 2014. It had just been up tired after seal clubbing props and was put into the hunter, saber, mig 15 matchmaking. Even though I was outperformed so much I managed to get a 1.8 k/d as my first jet. I wish people could relive the early jet era but they ruined 9.0 with power creep and even into the early 7.7-8.7 jets.

[@Broomtwo]

I have a friend who is relatively new to playing War Thunder and he recently got the MiG-15 on the German tree, and I have every plane researched on the American tree and I want to go and play with him down at that BR while he attempts to research his way towards top tier, but it is just so sad how the matchmaking is. If I play any American jet at that BR, literally every enemy jet basically can do circles around me. I can still do well, but it requires so much effort to overcome the massive disadvantages of the matchmaking at that BR.

[@Indiana_Jesus]

Same it was my first Jet and proportionally I probably done the best with it I don't think I've ever been in a game with props with this Simply using 50 cals in jet combat is painful 4 20 mms pretty amazing

[@Indiana_Jesus]

​​@@Broomtwoyeah half the problem with that is War Thunder added a lot of vehicles that are better and better than the last group they added and it took them too long to admit they added to add more battle ranks instead of just proportionally cramming everything into a lower tier to make other things fit they are starting to work that stuff out

What do you guys mean.. cannon belts nerfed to hell ? I used to hate flying American tree because .50 cals just suck in any other role than ground SPAA mount. I've got vastly more kills sniping pilots from a tank than air kills. Then I randomly got a talisman on the F7F-1 and lo and behold, the 4 x 20mm cannons seem to kill everything very nicely, just lightly touch them with a burst and it disintegrates. Playing air realistic is actually fun, everyone seems to love doing head ons for some reason.

Face a lot of F2H-2's in my M.D.450B, its a comparable fight in my eyes. Certainly out climbs you but I've always felt that I can usually out turn an F2H-2. Thankfully it seems like a lot of people play the F2H nowadays, they usually aren't the smartest/experienced players.

I remember back in the day like 5-6 years at least ago, this and the Panthers were just...the opposite of fun to play. I always had the thought "why would anyone fly these, they're just not that great." A few months ago when gaijin moved them to 8.3 I could not believe my eyes. Like, these are some of the most painfully mediocre planes at tier 5 and you're moving them UP in br? Thankfully, they showed some mercy and moved them down.

[@mr.sunmeadow]

I had around 600 games in the F2H before it was moved up to 8.3. I played it pretty much all the time, every day. So I think I am partly to blame for its increase in BR. Even had a few fun games at 8.3 with it, but I ultimately stopped once the guns were nerfed

[@NachtjagerVII]

This thing is now almost back to being as seal clubby as it was originally when it was released at 6.7, its too fast for props and the early jets, its too slow and lacks missiles to fight Korean war era aircraft, so either it sits too low and clubs or it sits too high and gets clubbed, classic BR compression issues.

[@MasterChiefPettyOfficer]

Hello Defyn!:) I wanted to say and ask something, I just discovered you and your nice guides. They are absolutely awesome and helpful:) Only question I have, I theoretical understand what you are doing in your guides/videos (Energy Management and stuff) and how turning this way or doing this bleeds your enemys energy. BUT when I am playing I have absolutely no clue anymore about what you said (exaggerated) - how do I implement what I learned in your videos? Like I try to do things like you do, but f.e. I pull up to hard, turn the wrong direction into the enemy guns instead of out of them. Stuff like that.

Probably just has to do with skill or overturning. Ive played early and late jets and i see ALOT of players overturning and end up crashing to the point where in some fights i dont even have to fire any weapons, i would win by them crashing. On the other hand we have unskilled players in good jets. If you want to p2w, play AC7 because if your p2w to jets in this game, you will be crushed. And not just p2w players, there are people who havve grinded to jets and have yet to master skill.
