Myth to test : you actually can win a round with a 500% booster

[@aether3697]

FALSE

There is literally medal for killing with flares, i got one by accident

[@spartaninaction8008]

I got killed by a flare by a friend when we are doing a custom jet 3v3 air match

[@dominusbalial835]

The pilot themselves would be vulnerable if you can punch through the window that'd actually be terrible in real life to have happen those flares on the aircraft are probably a lot heavier duty than the handheld ones i've used.

[@tomthomas7101]

China has been trying it with chaff on aircraft in international airspace

[@Pthunder_YT]

How you gonna kill a tank with an Ata missile 😂

[@mjd13]

There is an aam which is saclos, so you can guide it to tank, damage from it on the other side is random

[@2004jakub_cze]

Maybe using ata that can be avoided by a flare easily to guide it to the tank

[@maltehaus]

[@vaylanfernandez2004]

For real they were all true 😂😂

[@DatBoi_TheGudBIAS]

Fun fact about the last one: idk if they patched it yet, but if u drop a mine in a patch of water, ull create an actual ground mine, and when a tank passes over it, it blows up

[@lucasarledge4658]

Isn't it the Mod 0 "1,000 lbs" (not really 1,000 pounds) bomb a laid magnetic mine, for the sea?

[@Potato-FA-XX]

i always wondered if flares could kill a plane or a ground target.

[@elnewbie2611]

Only open top tanks

[@Cotton4kwarthunder]

And you can damage open top vehicles using a smoke grenade, although very difficult and random

[@danieldunn573]

I was in air rb the other day and took damage from an enemy flare

[@HeinrichDerGrosse1298]

I was in air rb once, just having some fun by flying close to my teammates Then in flared just for fun and that son of a bitch teammate left the game, so because I did little damage to him, I had to pay 25k sl

[@rechtsguy4005]

The discarding sabot can obviously kill lightly armored vehicles cuz Gaijin clearly stated that it's an intended feature in Kings of Battle update.

[@flammerubis1041]

It used to be even more broken for wehicules that had hight firerate with sabot round like the bmp2m, where the apfsds became the meta aa round since you were an automatic shotsgun with tracking

[@rechtsguy4005]

@@flammerubis1041 Gaijin removed auto cannon's sabot petal cuz it's just mostly made of plastic/rubber and can't really do much damage

[@termiusprime]

I've noticed this happening, but never does any damage. Why?

[@Name223lr]

How are some of these myths when they were intentionally added

[@jbeverley67]

The last one is also historically accurate. That specific mine was built to be multi purpose and could use a bomb fuse.

[@Juel92]

Regarding teamkills I had a very "fun" teamkill bug playing today. I had a HE round loaded but needed to switch back to AP so I shot the HE at the ground to load and I randomly killed a friendly that was nowhere to be seen.

[@astina7574]

i swear magnetic mines work better than regular bombs against tanks

[@duncanmcgee13]

You can shoot bombs and rockets while theyre still attached to the plane. And yes even bombers bomb bays can be detonated.

[@mobberrr]

myth: you can destroy a plane or helicopter mid air with a bomb

I've never played War Thunder, I like to watch these video's.

[@user-jy6cn3jy8g]

@@Johnathan-mj4eiit’s fun but top tier is actually playable only in sim (I mean in sim skill matters and you will win fights because you’re better than the opponent or lose it because you’re worse instead of 16v16 mess/chaos in which 90% of kills are made simply because you were lucky enough so targets couldn’t see or defeat 999999999 missiles from all directions at the same time) But anyway this is my opinion

[@AlexNV75]

@@Johnathan-mj4ei its fun, but it can definitely be frustrating. “Volumetric Hell” is definitely real with it causing you to lose fights you shouldn’t, 1/3 of your team essentially does nothing every match (I actually ran the numbers), and a lot of players can play in annoying ways like spawn camping, abusing CAS, and playing broken vehicles.

[@chish7690]

Being able to shoot down bombs has been a thing for a loooong time. You can even shot them on the pylons now.

[@APOLON-bm7ym]

This is sick. This game became "the life". Every fckn day I ran home from job (where I watch WT videos often) and while entering home fully dressed, I turn on computer, so I dont have to wait 2 or 3 minutes later on. But Im noob, i play few months, and the game is insanely addictive... I quit playin world of WShips, although grinded 90% there, just to be involved in some new, even more ludacris grinding...

[@nestbergfamily1380]

Damaging isn’t killing, there could be a limit to where and how much dmg you can do

[@doggunn]

The next screen says killed by F-16C ammunition - Flares

[@reinni2968]

It would kill him after multiple tries so it does count

[@albinospino3089]

It’s war thunder, damage is on a component model, so anything that does any amount of damage can kill if it does enough.

[@alanodomino]

I killed a BMP-2M in a custom Arcade server with an artillery flare and I instantly knew the artillery one was true, knew it before then but it was even funnier then

[@pavarottiaardvark3431]

In low level arcade, the ship mine is actually a good choice for picking off lone pillboxes late in a match.

[@BreadPittAAAAHHHH]

Poor T-90m, it just needed a little more ERA and everything would have been just fine 😢

[@quintensizemore749]

The anti ship mines are some of the best explosives in the game. I use them to bomb bases in sim battles because it only takes 2 to completely knock a base out. They also have a guaranteed kill range up to 17m for CAS

[@Ghost1.1]

Myth to test: you can kill a tank with a Torpedo

[@rayaya3342]

He already did that

[@no-stellar147]

ArtiLeRy cAn kill friendlys in arcade: Target destroyed 💀💀💀

[@culturemaster9639]

A kill is a kill

[@thevexengineer]

since the sabot itself is the casing of the round (hence the term "discarding sabot"), you can just say "you can destroy a tank with a sabot"

[@a-fletcher]

1 they made it big news when they added the ability 2 shoot bombs mid air. 2 of course a air 2 air missle is going 2 kill a tiny tank half it's size 😂🙄

[@DatBoi_TheGudBIAS]

U can shoot bombs mid air for years now. Maybe ure actually talking about Dat time when gaijin introduced Dat, but I think ure confusing it with the recent feature of shooting bombs/missiles still in the plane

[@Texas_Real]

Who could have guessed a giant fucking missle would go through a tank.

[@Hurngh-x7e]

Remember when bombs randomly became destructible before being dropped? That went crazy with some bombers

[@Fightre_Flighte]

Imean, if the ship mine is a contact mine, it'd detonate on ground contact. But if it's a magnetic mine, it'd detonate nearby the tank's armor.

[@turtleboyxxx4058]

Anyone remember the submarine event that made all torpedoes dropped from planes into nukes?💀

Myth tested: Can you destroy your own ground forces in arcade battles 💀💀💀💀

[@Pankaj__Solanki]

best thing about war thunder is, i was able to kill tanks not visible to me by using trajectory and angle.

[@sdhubbard]

The mines have more explosive payload than the regular bombs, IIRC.

[@mochathegrande3640]

These aren’t myths these are just common knowledge

[@Ani-da-Padawan]

You can die to your own artillery as well. Should be known by most, but it can be just as annoying as getting killed by an ally's artillery.

[@427Arbok]

Ah, yes, War Thunder myths, like *_checks notes_* features that were in the patch notes when they were introduced

[@Tallguy471]

The Magnetic mines are x10 better than a 1000lb bomb, they are crazy good

[@fork-zm6ju]

It was actually integrated either the "Kings of battle" update, or when we got the severe damage patch, that you could shoot at bombs on aircraft or mid-air to make them explode, or if you shoot at smoke launchers with your MG on a tank, they explode into smoke and fall off the tank.

[@gp33music41]

In custom battles I saw an A10 destroy a battleship with flares lol

[@SomeCHeeeeeeeeese]

I remember how my teammate kill me in arcade battles, but that's was a lot of time ago, i thought that now Gaijin fix it.

[@elduquecaradura1468]

A couple of thigs: -the sabot goimg through the tank basically killed it, what I saw was shrapnel -everybody knows youcan blow a bomb mid air, what would be interestig would be to hit so hard a bomber that the bomb/s inside would explode -you may not kill an ally with a bomb in arcade battles, but if it's open roof you can shoot it out

[@TheRealAnakinSkywalker66]

When I first started playing I accidentally bombed 3 aircraft in 1 run😂

[@unknowncommenter6698]

As someone who died to friendly artillery about couple dozen times, the last one definitely ain't a myth lmao

[@jakeogroton]

The naval mine thing isn't a myth it used to be the preferred method of cas if you had access to naval mines as they had increased explosive damage on them to scale up to ships but was never fixed for ground RB

[@psedygames5217]

Imagine dying to a sabot casing😂😂

[@doodskie999]

Whats worse, friendly arty kill also deducts huge points. But a 5000kg bomb cant even tickle a friendly L3, lol gaijin logic

[@EliasMendoza-wi7ci]

The anti ship mine was actually used during the war in the Balkans. It worked.

[@Dawgmaster14]

The anti-ship mine did infact detonate.

[@arthurneddysmith]

[@mab2187]

They nerfed the anti ship mine, before it was a guarantee kill due to the high HE content and destruction radius but now the radius is shrunk to on contact distance.

I really hope they take out the sabot since sometimes i feel like they count where the sabot goes instead of where the round goes and it costs me lots of kills.

[@migueltroxx5534]

the fact that sabot casing can kill a tank despite having almost no aerodynamics

[@miss_bec]

"It's possible to kill a tank with an air-to-air missile" Well I could've answered that for you, because when my AIM-7M lost its lock it decided to keep flying in the direction it thought the plane was going - directly into a friendly SPG.

[@yareyaredaze6]

Do not use mines as bombs, they are lighter and have more explosives, but they fly much further, so it is impossible to hit them without a horseshoe for luck

[@Bomba_gibiyim]

You can shoot a bomb while its still in the enemy bomb bay. I've done it myself.

[@borednekoguy]

I use the anti ship mine all the time in low tier because it's funny to see the death messages from it 💀

[@deathguy66]

I played a match the other day in the german 222 AA car and I got right up point blank on a shermans side and hit him in the ammo. The explosion from the sherman dying killed me, probably because the 222 is open top and has no armor. It was so funny and shocking to see! XD
