The Fighting Falcon Does it All - F-16A CAS Plays - War Thunder

[@S1su]

Hi! Did you guys know that F-16 has 5 stage afterburner? You can get those different stages by scrolling up from 100% throttle 1-5 times. You can save SO MUCH fuel!

[@TrollCocTailZz]

dont think its modeled in this patch.. dont feel im using any less fuel while scrolling

[@justtypical8604]

@@TrollCocTailZz idk if it is actually designated in game however you can indeed run half burn, u need to input by a smidge and it saves a ton of fuel

[@mat05usz]

A lot of aircraft have stuff like that, F-14 for example you can afterburn using scroll too.

[@S1su]

@@TrollCocTailZz it is! It’s helped me ALOT with fuel

I’m RealmWarrior the T-90 that was quiet and was “a mile away” That was my first game in the T-90A I was using stock heat and probably quit to get in my next game before I could thank you for how great your videos are! You have the honor of killing me first in that tank.

[@__pizzaWT]

You should split your flare/missile binds, especially with only 30 of each

[@Ken-no5ip]

Ypu can do that???

[@potatonamedtate6727]

Played the HSTVL yesterday and 2 times I shot different 2a6’s in the side in 2 different maps multiple times with 0 spalling from my round and no damage to the tanks. The pain with that thing is very real sometimes

[@justamicrowave2572]

The HSTVL is so hit or miss. One game I’ll collateral through the sides of 2 T-80s, the next I’ll get a non pen against the side of a T-72 with only Kontakt-5

[@colejones594]

Was a massive spalling bug yesterday where none of the top tier tanks spalled was so bad to play goes to show they actually do ghost updates explains the inconsistencies in the game

[@CFNightmare]

Next update introducing.... ORBITAL RAILGUNS!!! Completely fair and balanced with the current state of CAS

[@Panservogn]

Biggest problem with using mavericks from above is they go for the center of the tank, and have a very direct ¨Laser¨ from the HEAT charge so it damages mostly just things in its direct path. That is why I like firing them in a maybe 20-30 degree dive where they come from a higher angle but also his them on the front, back, or side instead of top.

[@socanukincrazy9060]

Justin, when you flaring for missiles, turn off your afterburner so you're not biggest heat signature lol

[@MichaeloApC]

27:20 - @Justin remember to turn off afterburner when IR missile is heading towards you :)

[@JustinPlaysTV]

Missiles from helicopters are not affected by flares from aircraft, so regardless if I had not used them, the outcome would have been the same. I pop flares as a way to create a habit for when aircraft fired missiles come my way o.o

[@captainfactoid3867]

@@JustinPlaysTVi can’t say with regard to Ty-90s, but I can say from experience that the R-60Ms on the Mi-24s love flares

[@vladcoman8595]

Why didn't you use the GBUs as well as mavericks Justin?

[@JustinPlaysTV]

Not a fan of GBUs for ground RB. Too long of a flight time, and you need to maintain lock which means you're vulnerable to counter air and SPAA.

[@JustinPlaysTV]

@Dingle I had no idea it was TV guided, I didn't bother to look into them! Maybe in the next one for when i use it randomly as a pair woth something else xP

[@icy3-1]

Seems like you beat Cave to the punch on this one :3

[@Sag05501]

The problem with mavericks is that when they hit composite or era, they don't do any overpreasure due to the heat warhead. Unlike Russian missiles wich use a HE warhead and overpreasure.

[@michaelbeale559]

You can overpressure with HEAT on 75mm HEAT on the Panzer IV. I think if the Maverick penetrates the crew compartment, it should be a kill. Anything hit directly by a Maverick would be cooked, it has a 57kg (126lb) warhead.

[@jacobbaumgardner3406]

YES, finally a worthy replacement for the F-4E. It’ll be even better because it doesn’t lose speed easily.

[@math1ass10]

the fact that you mentioned that some players in ground RB use planes to purely attack other planes lets me know that my strategy is working😈

[@JustinPlaysTV]

My guess, to rid airRB of actual players? No hair off my back xP

Great intro

[@Kri7ian]

Gaijin jumped over the F-15😂 Gaijin: F-15? What’s that? Never heard of that

[@JustinPlaysTV]

The F15 is a superior aircraft to the F-16. To my knowledge, the F-16 was built as a more cost effective fighter to the F15, hence why the aircraft is not as widely used compared to that of the F15 in todays modern military (US)

[@Kri7ian]

@@JustinPlaysTV yes yes it was just a joke

[@baronsaturday210]

hi justin, i was wondering when using mavericks how you "unlock" a target when u lock a dead target or the wrong target. Edit: without getting them out of your field of view (the camera or in 3rd)

[@JustinPlaysTV]

I just double click the lock until it breaks xP

[@Cam_Wight]

@@JustinPlaysTV What do you use to lock A-G missiles? I can never figure it out

The reason mavericks aren't great is because of how heat is modeled in game vs H.E.

[@fire_drake12.arc.24]

Unfortunately the Mavericks suck ass. Gaijin seriously needs to fix them so they actually lock properly and track targets at range, they also have issues with detonating after launch at long distance like they lost the target, yet the target never moved. Mavericks suck and honestly its a pretty bad detriment to things like the A-10 that REALLY need them to work, among the many other artificial issues both the A-10s have. But its US planes and US equipment, so making them good, and correct is as the bottom of the list of gaijins priorities unlike it would be for a russian vehicle.
