The Anti-CAS Eagle That Does It All - F-15A - War Thunder

[@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933]

If Spanish vehicles could be added, besides the VRCC we have in- game, we could get the Leopard 2E, the AMX-30E, the M47 & M48 Patton, and even some WWII stuff. Like the Verdeja 1 & 2, the BT-5, the BA-3 & BA-6, the T-26, and even a Panzer 1 armed with a 20mm Breda 20/65 mod.35 autocannon.

[@mote_vengador2832]

Did the m47 in Spain got any modifications like a L7 stabilized gun or something?

[@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933]

@@mote_vengador2832 There was a version made by Spain called the M47E2 , which was an upgraded version of the M47E1 (No relation to the US model of the same name). It was armed with the 105mm Rh-105, plus it also had improved FCS systems and passive night vision for both the commander & the driver.

YES PLEASE

[@Scarp7141]

They should have been the subtree for italy lol

[@notafrog2040]

How about you don’t suggest unmodified copy paste? No t-26 or Whatever, but besides that hell yeah

[@TomPrickVixen]

Yea the advantage of the TV guided ordinance is that u can just "launch" one after another, if u have multiple targets; while with the laser/IR guided ones u have to wait till it "gets down".

[@dankmemewalker7738]

Pretty sure IR guided ones like the AGM65D are also fire and forget for the f16 but I see what u mean.

[@ilikestarwars4438]

Yeah but to be fair laser guided does mean you can redirect your missile/bomb if the person goes behind cover or the target dies, TV guided your ordinance becomes almost completely useless

[@snowdropfox5754]

I love the subtle Isreal nerf by introducing the Merkava Mk4 not in it's usual configuration, but rather the command vehicle version with 4239847 Antennas. Very cool Gaijoobles.

IRCM doesn't work on Aim-9G and later missles from what I've experienced.

[@MrRazgriez666]

Harrier got it's thermal nerfed and I just can't even be mad anymore, why would Italy have a full equipped top tier air cas system. It's not like they are part of NATO or the euro project of Germany and Britain (I think it's been awhile since I checked)

[@MrRazgriez666]

This is sarcasm by the way I know it will be forever till the eurofighter comes in but I'm just tired of disappointment

[@shardr7983]

"America is doing pretty well for the most part" after showing 36% winrate. Hilarious

[@Ryan-go6id]

This guy is a joke lol he said the F-15 is reigning supreme.. On what planet?? With regards to US tech tree sure

[@freezedvegetal]

Found you channel recently and have been really enjoying the content, it feels like actually enjoying top tier in WT these days is a rare occurrence lol. Keep up the great videos :)

I've got couple aces with f15a after br changes

[@kingtyrants830]

I was at your game lol. I was the pantsir shooting at you. I was Nmvb_444

[@STRYKER1467]

Im really curious why its 12.3 despite its stronger than the F-16C...

[@tatersgonnatate6230]

I would love to see you play the f15j. Not nearly as cool for ground pounding (unless you like carpet bombing with snakeye) but the smokeless aam3 is a heli mains worst nightmare. Best anti cas in the game by far.

[@niko_o3258]

10:38 the way you made brttttt noise with your voice

[@jacobchristen9446]

Yo Justin, I know you are a fan or the Merkavas, so I was wondering if you knew about the HE shell they have. The HE they get has 60mm of pen making it basically a SAP round, and if you shoot the wheels on the tracks you will overpressure every time. It’s the most fun I’ve had playing top tier. One tapping Leo’s and t90Ms with HE is a hilariously good time.

[@hollywood7647]

Love the commentary man!

[@Ryan-go6id]

Hey Justin the 9m will hit the Frogfoot w IRCM even in rear aspect, I’ve done it in Air RB

[@csii6478]

Still think the f16a is better since you can carry 4 GBU…. Honestly top tier I thing both f16s are best use the A for day battles and then you have the C with IR maverick and pavewways with the T pod for night battles

[@maltegedik3481]

8:35 the brakes are so awful anyway, its unbelivable

[@armandorodrigues144]

Turkey will probably eventually be added as a subtree alongside Israeli vehicles more F-16s more M48s more M60s more Phantoms (F-4E Terminator 2020) etc but more importantly it will add light armor for the Israeli tech tree, including quite a few IFVs

[@mega_bruh]

Well basically you can pick 2k lbs bombs on your F-15J and it should be somewhat okay

[@PerplexinWarThunder]

Justin as a heads up the aim7 can be launched way farther than 18 i generally launch at 25km but you can throw it from even further

[@JustinPlaysTV]

DCS logic, around 18 to 22 xP

[@PerplexinWarThunder]

yeah the aim7 is hit or miss anyways in some certain situations, generally i just sling them and pray @@JustinPlaysTV

[@edutaimentcartoys]

They nerfed the f16 targeting pod?

[@royalalex2154]

how do i lock on ground targets without launching them imediatly????

how do u get that f15 camo?i play on Xbox and I've seen it by camos in the workshop but i have no clue how to get those camos

[@JacobWSelf1394]

How are you getting track locks with youe bombs with out it getting stuck on point every time

[@lukewhitehouse4103]

Should never have given the A model bombs

[@TomPrickVixen]

Kind of have do disagree of the "good" maps, specially on all the newer ones. Like almost on all new maps the tank-battle part is not part of the "world" . On older maps if u play Air RB and U were on the same map the ground map is, u could find it, and it was part of the map, connected to the rest of it by roads, railway .... and so on ! Yes in a very ugly Sim-City 3 style (and as always if the game isn't about "trains" the railway system is an insult to anyone who knows even a little about how transportation and infrastructure works), but the new maps like "Aral sea" the town just sits in the middle of nowhere, NO in/out going roads or railroads to it , and the rest of the map is empty (from the air). And as an engineer i can't "unsee" that! 16:23 yes that road ends there, and that's all, the rest of the map has no sign of human civilization (except the air bases, and randomly placed houses).

[@spliffy98]

[@daveshilling6610]

What mod do I need to unlock for the 15 to not feel so tanks and turn better?

[@exhausting_thoughts]

If your point is that the F-15 is the best among the new planes and then literally after that youve shown that the US is lacking numbers at their winrates it is a clear sign that you're just doing the classic "this is okay *skill issue shaming*" move that every CC is doing nowadays to justify Gaijin's incompetence to elaborate decent BR brackets.¨ I genuinely don't care how many bucks you guys get from the snail, but please be honorable enough to not be their public relations lapdogs.

[@Tksnyte]

Eagle🦅

[@TexanThunder]

Calling it right now. This is going to be one of your most viewed videos.

[@lokikinch]

14:36 quick tip Justin! When you're popping your flares like that you should also take a sharp turn in another direction because that missile will shut its tracker off and keep flying in your last determined path. Its how AIM-9Ms work and it can sometimes trick R-73's pretty well but I find it inconsistent myself

[@okok-tm7xs]

no, the irccm of the r73 works differently then the aim9m, the R-73 Irccm works in that the circle seen when you power up your missile to lock gets drastically smaller, meaning that if the missile had a rear aspect lock and was shot within 2 km of its target the missiles circle or field of vision will be so small it doesn't see the flares its target just popped instead it will just see the engine, but if its shot farther away then 2km and the target pops his flares right the missile will always go for the flares. SO in conclusion, no he could not have dodged the shot, a shot by a r-73 within that range is a death sentence. PS. if you have dodged r-73 within a 2km range its probably because it wasn't rear aspect or your plane was on more crack than the missile to dodge it

[@okok-tm7xs]

Source: i watched some youtube video

[@anabaina]

how the hell you can lock enemy without using your cam dude? maybe my eyes got a problem or you got good eyes

[@Firstsentientroomba]

Whats the difference between tv guided bombs and Lazer guided bombs?

[@brannonmeador1792]

You don’t have to maintain a lock with tv guided, once it has lock you can forget but laser has to be maintained until impact

[@Firstsentientroomba]

Thanks

[@williumwinter]

As Brannon said, just like that, also the TV guidance ones do not give any emmisions and track passively, thus not giving enemy players a warning. The Laser guided ones trigger LWS warnings

[@Firstsentientroomba]
