SWEDEN VEHICLE DESIGN WAS NUTS DURING WW2

Swedish Vehicles in War Thunder are basically clown cars with guns. What's weirder than that? Oh, it's a Swedish Plane with a Tank Cannon on it! :)
The B18B 57 is the most heavily armed Swedish B18 out of the 3 offerings but it's honestly my least favourite. The 57mm Cannon in the belly of this plane is pretty useful, the issue is that it makes this Swedish Aircraft VERY heavy. On top of this, the ammo belt for this plane has a mix of 3 different shells that are quite confusing as to what is actually being fired. It has an AP, an AP-I and a APHE. The APHE is the most effective of the 3 but it seems like only 2 of every 5 rounds are APHE!
The B18B 57 is also armed with two 20mm cannons and the really powerful 13.7mm machine guns which pack a punch. Add on 8 rockets and 8 bombs and you have a VERY heavy bomber that can pack a punch!
Oh, I also take the silly clown car known as the Pvkv II! A nasty 75mm cannon fitted to the wobbliest tank known to man! Thanks, Sweden!

The only reason I would ever shoot at a tank I can't kill with .50s is to mark them so the teammate who's about to blindly rumble around a corner in front of them will know they are there. It may not always save the life of that teammate, but the times it does really does make a difference.

[@rafanugroho9496]

If I recall correctly they changed the spotting mechanic for cas. Now when I shoot tanks with 50 cals it doesn’t mark them. Maybe the allied team could trace your bullets to see where the enemy *might* be.

@@rafanugroho9496 the way it usually works is if you get the popup that says 'hit' followed by the silver lions and rp or whatever then that enemy will be marked on the map but if it does not tell you that you hit the tank then nothing will happen

The 103 was perfect for Sweden, similar to how the Merkava is the tank with the best features for Israel.

[@dulguunjargal1199]

"Israel bad"👹

[@crownprincesebastianjohano7069]

The S-Tank works perfectly well in defensive oriented armor warfare. The US Army rated it quite well after testing some at Fort Knox, and so did the Bundeswehr and the British. It was a very lethal defensive weapon for its intended terrain, and in limited offensive roles, in the days before real gun stabilization made firing on the move effective. It wasn't ever going to be an export darling because it is a bespoke weapon for Swedish conditions and doctrine. I swear, games like this are the best and worth thing to happen to the study of armor. Whereas it does get the average person hyped about AFVs, it completely conditions them to think in the exact opposite manner of how real armor doctrine works. War Thunder makes people think they are experts when they honestly are missing the big picture of how armor warfare works in the real world. This inability to comprehend the worth of the 103 is a perfect example. Put these gamers in a real tank in real conditions and they'll see the use VERY quickly.

Italian FC. 20 BIS is better imho. It definitely doesn't get any love, but it's a great ground attacker, it has a very low stall speed, a rapid firing 37mm gun, and it's an absolute TANK of a plane. It will take hit after hit from American .50 cals and just shrug them off.

I think of the B18 as a weird Swedish lovechild of the Bf 110 and Ju 88, and it got the best characteristics of both. It's one of my favorite CAS planes in the game, all variants of it.

[@13deadghosts]

"The *best* characteristics of both" ? Both of those planes are absolutly miserable. The B18 is fantastic, but why do you want to give it depression by putting it next two these two abominations? Hell, the Ju-88 can barly stay in the air even with min fuel and no bombs. And for the Bf 110, yeah, the armaments are nice, but everything else is shit. At least it doesn't fall out off the sky like the ju-88.

[@ODST_Parker]

@@13deadghosts Have you only played those planes stock, or what? The Ju 88 is a fantastic medium bomber, and the Bf 110 is one of the most fun CAS planes in the game, not to mention a decent heavy fighter.

[@13deadghosts]

@@ODST_Parker Yes, I have spaded pretty much every Bf-110 and the Ju-88's. The Ju-88 struggle to stay in the air and i just find them miserable to fly. The He-111 does everything it does, but better, with a better flightmodel, better bombload, more survivability and at a lower BR. Regarding the 110: As i said, i like the weapons, but i don't flying them against other planes. As you said, they are good as CAS in Mixed RB, but useless as heavy fighters (to be fair, most heavy fighters are useless in AirRB). I like the british mosquitos far more as a heavy fighter at these BRs (not to mention that the recent absolutly retarded penetration buff makes them extremly good CAS). In the german tree the only heavy fighter that is really fun to fly against other planes is the Ta-154 in my opnion. Or the 50mm 410, but that is more of a meme plane to use it against other planes :P I am sorry that my first comment sounded really negative/angry, that wasn't the intention :)

[@Oddball_E8]

The 103 was ahead of its time technologically, sure, but not in any other sense. That said, it wasn't a bad tank for its purpose. For fighting the enemy with the tactics we were using at the time, it was perfectly suited to it. Which is also why no other country bought one. Because no other country had those tactics and those environments. (Also, those tactics won't work in WT, because it's not real tank combat, and the 103 in WT is, and has been for a very long time, largely broken in its mechanics)

[@TitaniusAnglesmith]

People always forget that stabilisers weren't as good when the S-Vagn was designed and built. And then immediately after it was introduced stabilisers became actually useful and tank could fire on the move, but even so it was not really a viable strategy in a forest. The real nail in the coffin for the 103 was APFSDS.

[@Arthion]

@@TitaniusAnglesmith And HEATFS and increasingly common ATGMs, shaped charge doesn't care too much about sloped armor hence the addition of the fence at the front on later variants.

[@opposed2logic]

@@Arthion which still didnt do any good in tests, considering most things we tested with would shoot a 103 clean through. we were forced to abandon it due to the advances in ammo. it could obviously still serve its roll as an ambush attacker, which is what it was built for (do keep in mind not a single defensive regiment used 103, only offensive regiments, it was built to attack, not defend) but the issue is that if it got stuck in an actual prolonged tank battle it simply werent a good option any longer. if everything went according to plans it would still be able to do what it was meant to do today, in 2023, however you cant use an MBT that can only work well if everything goes as planned and turns to absolute shit if anything happens that went against what you hoped for. it was an interesting tank design that was great at its intended purpose until technology progressed that negated some of its strong sides which put even more emphasis on its weakness, the main problem was really how fast this happened after the 103 was built, it only took a few years until tech advances had made it outdated. bad timing basically.

PVKV II is my favorite Swedish tank, that damn thing is amazing/

[@petn8211]

pvkv stock solid shot and reload time means the enemy will often replace their gunner before you can reload and kill them

[@melle1996meijer]

It amazes me how you play this game so well while being colorblind don't know the type you got but I see all the colours and have a hard time spotting anything in this game normaly in most games my ADHD brain lock onto every bit of movement or something that stands out in games but warthunder always gives me a hard time maybe it's map knowlage I am just a casual player that just plays it ones a week play on a Xbox Serie X on a 4K 100fps it runs amazing on a Serie X

[@95Karlsson]

Literally shook my fist at the screen with a frown on my face when Odd disses the 103. xD

[@brian6898]

That intro is just choice!

[@YesMinister]

Can you review the WINTER event 20/21 light tank TCM AGS? Pretty please with bells on top.

[@Reavenant]

Pkv II is a good machine, but it needs the player to know the maps and possible approach vectors of the enemy team. I can usually get to 5-6 kills in it and I think that my highest was 19 kills and assists.

[@TSkillessB]

My grind in stock Sweden ground was so painful that I gave up and only grinded using only my 1.7 Trumpet. And the 40mm truck

[@stevenhussey9228]

my favorite Swedish tank or armored car was they're king tiger and yes Sweden had a german king tiger but it had a Porsche tiger turret.

[@Cryo_Cake]

The T18 is so fun when going bomber hunting in air rb

[@motorsport2342]

So it's only been a year since this video but I went to go and look at the T18B (57) and the only thing it has now in it's 'Ground targets' belt is AP-T

[@majormakowski2649]

As a main sweden i'd love to see more videos about Swedish doomtonks

[@Jackarooooo]

9:08 when the bombs go off, I swear you can very faintly hear the original minecraft hit sound, if that was added in edit, well played sir!

[@duke0salt717]

The fact almost all Low tier Swedish tanks are build on the 38 Chassis is even more hilarious

[@corsairsofnarshaddaa]

You can slot the PvkvII in to get the 4.0 BR but I still main the Lago I with it's sabot rounds. 🙂

[@stephenrogers981]

Nothing use to piss me off more than fighters strafing ground targets while enemy fighters were free to chase me in my XA-38....

Watching Bawz warp his engines six ways to sunday in the first match hurt my inner mechanic

[@OddBawZ]

SENT IT!

[@annadelsiena]

Bounce some shots in the T14! A mini jumbo at 4.7 that goes under the radar a lot!

[@jago1329]

The pvkv 2 is honestly in my time of playing it is one of the best vehicles I’ve played I’ve survived so many main tank rounds and the cannon is actually really fun to use and is pretty op, but that’s only my opinion

[@harnasabuser5677]

Swedish 4.0 is graeat, i love playing this lineup. Especially kils kV-1.

[@ZETH_27]

I really do recommend the Pvkv m/43 if you don't like the gun wobble on the Pvkv II. The m/43 has the same gun depression, the same 75mm, less than average wobble in return for a bigger silhouette. It also has surprisingly survivable armour in a hull-down position and is way faster than it appears on any terrain. It also has a quicker reload than the Pvkv II. Its only major con is that it doesn't have a turret, but then that's what the Pvkv II is, so yeah.

[@evan222yah]

Listening to bawz is like listening to myself but as Scotsman "I hate being self aware" hit me in the feels

[@RandomPerson-ob1hk]

5 minutes in, you've just convinced me why I should get it lol

[@laberdude]

dont forget the good optics on the pöffköff!

Challenge idea: Chia-Ha long gun 10 shot 10 kills challenge

[@opposed2logic]

the 103 was actually an extremely good tank when it was put into service, the problem was that technology progressed very fast at this time so it only took a few years before new rounds were developed that would pierce through a 103 from the front. the second those became standard the 103 stopped being an amazing tank. however that doesnt mean it was a useless tank, when used for ambush attacks or supporting infantry it would still fill its roll well, however it would no longer be a tank youd want to be engaged in prolong tank vs tank combat as its designs advantages disappeared with the advent of better rounds while its disadvantages obviously remained.

[@justinw.7045]

Teammates stress me more than enemy, br compression and non historical matchmaking put together. Even better now I can't tell them so.

[@BadTactics101]

This made me consider my own playstyle in regards to CAS, and if I do head-ons, and why. I think I do it mostly because I know I can't outrun the enemy, nor outmanouver them.

[@XSpamDragonX]

the real problem are the low IQ US pilots who will literally head on anything they see as soon as they see it, and don't even dodge after they fire.

[@atticusseverus]

Yeah I LOVE watching my teams fighters ignore air.....and do mostly nothing to ground targets but die. Also love finding several AA on my team....who ignore all air and look for ground targets instead.....

[@stylez965]

Weekend warrior warthunder player. You found a new way to diss me xD

[@danielmartens6369]

Odd, do you not see in the ammo selection where it literally tells you to composition of the belt? AP-T/APHET/APHET/AP/AP Right below the ground targets name
