The Mustangs FINAL FORM - P-51H (War Thunder Plane Gameplay)

[@johnmichaelgavin3617]

P-51H featured water methanol injection compared to -7, this allowed for a reduction of the air intake temperatures to the engine allowing for a decrease in detonation problems, so this probably allowed them to run a higher compression ratio on the -9

[@jacobw992]

Eulers Method it was also a larger displacement. Hence why it was longer.

[@habibsyed9190]

Ya guys, thats exactly what I was thinking. Isn't it obvious?!

Also people tend to forget the propeller itself, the shape and all, this makes a huge difference. New models have different propellers.

During the Battle of the Coral Sea, dive bomber pilot Stanley 'Swede' Vejtasa shot down two enemy Zeroes with his forward facing machine guns and claimed another by using his wings to shear the enemy's wing off.

Hey Phly, Engineer here. The Engine is longer because the cylinder heads must be larger to develop more power. The cumulative (total) increase in the size of those cylinder heads plus the increase in the size of auxiliary components results in a larger engine. Keep up the great work!

Wanna know what would have a stronger wep. The a2d skyshark. It had a 5000 hp turboprop and looked like an ad2. It xould go at 800 kph at sea level with bombs and climb really quickly. The real life documents dont say much else about low altitude performance

[@sharkslay12]

Now that's a throwback!

[@Tommy-iw4yv]

sheep lord im not an expert so What can change in a plane in low or hight altitude (sorry for my bad english)

[@jedpaint31]

Full nerd time... You asked for engine difference so I'll try not to touch on air-frame which is huge (mainly radiator flow, weight, fuselage and yaw drag). First off the main difference between the 1650's is Merlin version they were based off ... The Packard -7 = Merlin 66 and The Packard -9 = Merlin 100. The main difference between the two engines was the supercharger and block (which is why you see a larger engine). The -7 (Merlin 66) was a 2 stage, inter-cooled, supercharger. The -9 (Merlin-100) was an "auto boost" (Direct fuel-injected*) 2 stage, "duel" inter-cooled (it had an after-cooler), supercharger. Next the -7 ran max 100 octane fuel while the -9 could run 100 to 150 octane due to its advanced *fuel injection* carburetor... ya that's right... oh and by the way WEP was now a water/alcohol injection supercharger. The 600 lbs lighter air-frame meant the propeller reduction gear was reduced from .447:1 to .420:1. The Brits also added a oil cooler radiator thus running cool oil temps with increased volume. Now for the engine block. Even though both engines were 1648 cu. in. displacement, the later model 66 spits were running insanely hotter... so early model Merlin 100's actually had the same size block as the 66's. They realized they had heat problems and increased the size of the engine block to increase water jacket volume around the cylinders, thus reducing water temps. These later blocks also increased manifold pressures and changed the designs of the Spits.. and then Mustangs... uppers to parabolic cam shafts, thus increasing cam efficiency and cylinder combustion pressures. If any of my info is questionable, please let me know, as I'm getting it from the son of an old timer from my shop that used to work at the old Packard test facility here in Shelby Twp, MI. These guys are amazing to talk to as are the guys from Allison.

[@jedpaint31]

Fun fact... the P51 WEP was actually a small wire pilots had to break in order to increase engine hp and "dump" a direct injection of water/alcohol mix into the supercharger... If used for more than 5 mins "serious engine damage could occur"... thank god for War Thunder WEP.

[@patricksawyer9779]

The P-51H was a later design, and was only just starting production as the war ended. This meant that the Packard Merlin was much more mature, and the engineers could wring a lot more performance out of it, especially with the addition of Water Injection (ADI-AntiDetonation Injection), which allowed the engine to run at power levels that would utterly destroy a lesser engine. Many of these upgrades would be expanded upon later to make the racing Merlins used at the Reno Air Races today, which can crank out over 3300 hp.

[@dragolisco]

[@bradmorri]

Packard v1650-7 had different supercharger gearing that produced lower manifold pressure (about 67" manifold Pressure) and better performance at 19000'. Higher manifold pressure means better horsepower but is dependent on fuel Octane rating (150 in this case) to prevent predetonation/nocking. The V1650-3 was the same engine with different dual supercharger gearing that created higher manifold pressure (75" manifold pressure) and gave best performance at around 25,000' that was ideal for bomber escort missions. The -3 and -7 could be field modified by simply swapping the supercharger gearing parts in the engine. The v1650-9 used in the P-51H included water injection and could attain 90" manifold pressure, improving high altitude performance further and giving the aircraft a top speed of 487mph.

[@grafspeem9402]

Even supercharger from -7 67" is capable of much higer boost but maximum boost is limited by boost regulator due to engine or fuel operaton limits -7 could run 75" with 104/150 fuel But critical alt for 1st and 2nd supercharger gear reduced significatly

[@bluspectre2042]

3:12 Ever heard of the term "No replacement for displacement"? It's sort of used as a joke in car culture, referencing how American muscle cars retain the more innefficient way of getting more power by simply beefing up the size rather than implementating other power adding methods, such as forced induction. Something more realistic that someone named Jed already mentioned, American designers got pretty crazy with advanced injection methods for boosting crazy amounts of power into aircraft engines, such as the F8F water-methanol radials boasting over 2000 BHP. That much power from a less efficienct radial?!!!! Albeit, the engine would quickly overheat as well as drastically increased maintenance requirements, but all that stuff doesn't matter because MO POWAH BABY!!!

[@shithappens6887]

I'm actually in college with an attached flight school and we had a professor who had a doctorate in something aviation based. Huge history nerd. Anyways that's what he always said lol. He talked about how European design was about making the aircraft more streamlined and effecient yadda yadda, but he said the American philosophy was "no replacement for displacement". He said we just kept putting bigger engines in bigger planes lmao. I think this and P47s are just a perfect example of that. European planes were very small and cramped, but American planes were huge, even in the cockpit. We gotta make room to throw in a 30 pack of beer and a cigar holder somehow.

[@chrisrmorriscm]

The H model "mustang" was a near full redesign of the plane. It was lighter with a bigger wider prop. It used a new injection system that increased "emergency" power over the original engine but BHP was lower. They also reduced wind drap on the plane by moving coolers and reducing air flow intake sizes. Making this mustang faster then the previous models. The test models that used the new RR Merlin engine were even faster but they couldn't get enough engines for production.

The Packard V12 used in this plane had a bigger engine displacement. It's the same type engine they used in the PT boats which used twin Packard V12 engines to achieve extremly high speeds. The Packard V12 was an exceptional engine that the Packard motor company used before shifting to mostly 8 cylinder engines to save costs. Although the engines in the Mustang were licensed Rolls Royce Merlin engines, Packard really knew their stuff. This Mustang also has a better super charger due to increased manifold pressure

[@shawcobra]

Last time i was this early, Mustangs were Phly's least favorite plane...

[@stinkyfungus]

The V1650-9 engine had water injection, and an automatic supercharger boost controller. Water injection cools the intake charge, making it more dense, a denser air/fuel charge produces more horsepower, it also allows an engine to run higher levels of boost pressure and not get detonation. More boost makes even more horsepower. The V1650-7 in the D was rated for 61" of mercury at max boost. In the H, The V1650-9 on WEP with water injection was rated for 80" Automatic boost control for the supercharger means boost is optimized to the altitude without the pilots input.

doesn't the '-9' and '-7' refer to the displacement of the engine, if so the larger is 2 litres greater in displacement, hence bigger cylinders.

It's seasonal, gaijooby tweaks and tunes the .50s every 6 months or so. Back in 2015, they were flamethrowers. In 2016, I could empty most of a P-47 magazine into a Tu-2 and he'd fly away happily as if nothing happened. Now, I feel as if they're on the verge of being close to real life performance, what people don't take into account is that planes in WT have almost perfect accuracy thanks to mouse aim and 3rd person, and having 6-8x .50 cals mean you'll be landing 100-200 .50 bullets into a small concentrated part of a plane in 2-3 seconds, nothing could really withstand that.

[@phantom4E2]

[@ITS4390]

1650-9 was based on the 100 series which were merlin slimline engines initially designed for the hornet to decrease frontal area, which gave them a longer but slimmer block. Also had water/methanol injection. The 1650-7 was based on the 60 series. Specifically the Merlin 66. Short block.

J7 Type 5 75mm in game has 7.7 sec reload instead of its historical 6.0 sec reload when all other 75-76.2mm guns have 6.0 sec reload with heavier shells, even Russian 85mm reloads faster. Chi-To's are still yet to get Type 5 APHE - 184mm @ 100m - AP is still yet to be fixed (underperforming vs sloped) Both Chi-To's are missing secondary spaced 15mm armour behind the main 75mm armour They are also missing neutral steering.

Part of the reason the P-51H gets more power is due to higher compression fuel used at the time, reducing misfires and inefficiency. That's only a small part of it though. It also had a larger displacement with larger cylinders and a shorter stroke, meaning more horsepower higher in the power band.

I may be wrong, but i think it had an overdrive build into flywheel, before connecting into prop shaft . So, it could basicly chainge its prop turning ratio on higher altitude to spin faster in same engine rpm, to negate the less effective propulsion from prop due thinner air ( prop needing to work harder to make up the difference ) . That compined with prop pitch was mint.

Info on The Different engines: The Packard V-1650 is a licensed produced version of the Merlin The P-51D-30 block uses the V-1650-7 that is almost identical to the Merlin 66 used in the Spit LF Mk.IX The P-51H uses the V-1650-9 that uses a better automatic supercharger and much higher boost pressure. The H does this by using water injection, either this or the supercharger is likely the increase in length. War thunder doesn't model everything attached to the engine, so its probably the water tank for the new water injection. Boost pressure is a measurement of how much the supercharger pressurizes the air over atmospheric. The more you pressurize the air the more air enters the fixed volume of the cylinders. More Air entering the cylinders means more fuel can be burned and when more fuel is burned the more power achieved. Boost pressure is only limited by the strength of the engine, the detonation resistance of the fuel you are using and the strength/size of the supercharger. The Packard Merlin and the supercharger were sufficient but to increase the octane (detonation) rating of the fuel water is sprayed down the intake which absorbs and then returns heat. Development of the Packard Merlin did not stop after the war and continues today, where we have Packards making 3,800hp in race trim.

MiG-9/L to 7.3 br, Not sure what to do with Arados, F9F-2 and 5 to 8.0 maybe , F9f-8 to 8.3, Do all that (Or make the P-51H 6.3 br).

[@blacktiger974]

>first meteor to 7.3

[@southernbear736]

ahahah...BR 6.3...you make me laugh...this is a prop plane...due to it's unique characteristics in versing jet combat you should be untouchable in a 1v1 situation (aside from Ho229s...oh those special snowflakes) for exsample remmber when the AD-2 was 6.0?... that was perfect...jet didn't care about you cause it was the case 'I'll deal with you later' and you could out turn them even if they did...putting something's BR lower around the 6.0 to 7.0 bracket could actually make it worse...the H could be 7.0 and even the times you get 8.0 games you could out turn the G91s...which really are your worst threat so no...keep it at 6.7...i love it...either i fly it and kill noob meteor pilots...or i fly my 262 and kill noob H pilots...its a win win....

[@TheJessecarpenter]

262 is fine.... I SAID IT WAS THE F-84G.

[@troynixon8497]

How about no

[@OniDemo]

if your solution to being up tiered in jets is to out-turn jets and lose all your energy, you don't know enough about the game to make an argument on BR.

[@mr.petrolhead5432]

The reason this packard merlin engine has way more hp on wep is because this one runs on much higher boost pressures from the supercharger, and has water-methanol injection, which is limited in amount on the plane and thus explains the 7min limit to the wep

[@hemendraravi4787]

P51h and other 7.0 American and Brit jets are bullied by me262 a1 ,ho229 and f84g and me262 with 50 mm cn is bullied by others lol

[@raptornomad1221]

Finally a historical match up, so I’m all for it.

[@jojoreztorc0396]

There is something I never got about WT mustangs. In real life they were dogfighting monsters, able to outturn even the zeros in the Pacific. But here, they are strict Boom and zoom only.

[@tikibongo2916]

There was a turboprop version of the Mustang built.

[@MissileGuidanceSystem]

Nope only p-400

[@jks3376]

That first killl on the 262 with the 50mm was beautiful

[@lebluescout154]

Le Blue Scout easy until you fight the Japanese

[@randonlando418]

Same with the type 27

[@numberpirate]

Super/turbo chargers are what made it longer. BTW the packard V12 was actually a merlin engine that we got on the tizzard mission.

[@stefanogalliano5634]

When the propeller is going and you are looking the front of the mustang it looks like the plane is smiling like a very happy boy

[@juxtaposeism]

pro flying Phly really worth a thumbs up

[@mr3839]

Ladies and gentlemen behold the signature Phly finishing move. The hammerhead hes been using on unsuspecting victims for years.

[@stevennorris328]

DaAustrianMoose thanks you for the help with the 229 and 262. Great tag team.

[@jimvines5589]

P51h has a bigger engine by 40 cubic inches, thats where the power comes from. Think about the name, the letter is cylinder arrangement, v is inline v. R is radial, and if they ever put in cessnas o is apposed. The number is cubic inch displacement. R2800, radial 2800 cubic inch. Im waiting to see one added with the r4360. Hope this helps.

[@frankbradley4487]

Nice Video Phly! I am glad that you enjoy the P-51H! Please play the F4U-4B next!!

[@thunderhead6133]

Extra length is because the pistons are larger therefore you need a bigger block. Number of cylinders doesn't designate engine size. You can have an 8.0l inline 4 or you could have a 2.0l V12.

[@michaelhowell2326]

Supercharged and nitrous baby!

[@seancartier1516]

That thing climbs like a homesick angel.

[@thegreatbedoof3460]

Till this day i still can't belive i was in a game with phly and didn't do anything cool just for him

[@floh667]

New challenge for ground forces. You know on the map "Fulda gap" there are scenery tanks parking at small military checkpoints or on larger streets. Your challenge: use one of the same tanks, act like you are one of the parking scenry tanks and wait for a victim that passes you nearby

[@Franz_ZA123]

The piston shafts and injectors where improved for beter fuel efficiency and increased overall stats which lead to an increased engine size

[@supernalboot]

1 good reason why some planes with the same engine type is quicker than the other has to do with piston size, piston head shape, and fuel to air intake.

[@mr.dinklemen2445]

I love it when Phly plays planes and I wish he would do it more often.

[@sabre0smile]

KZbin just randomly recommended this to me and I was like... hell yeah, phlydaddly nostalgia.

[@Metacore91]

Oh hey, that Me-262 at 11:30 was me. I wasn't even aware of your P-51 at the time.

[@sirswerve2493]

What up Phly? Check out the "Voodoo" P-51 that just set the world speed record. The p-51 also holds the record for the highest recorded altitude for a prop plane.

[@KuraiKatsumi]

The P51H is a beauty in the skies.

[@woanimations9723]

Honestly this is my favorite KZbinr

[@Kopa_Malphas]

The engine is longer and bigger because it more than likely has a larger displacement. The bore for the pistons is probably larger which means they would need a longer block.

[@cossmith3116]

The Packard 9 12 cylinder has larger intake, cylinder heads and more space between the cranks allowing more movement to turn the prop.

[@hawtrodgaming607]

Watching you has made me a better pilot in War Thunder...

[@benjamincheong6198]

Loving the overwhelmingly unloved PHLY IT'S TIME TO FEEL KIMOCHI. TAKE OUT THE N1K2-Ja AND SHOW THE ALLIES A GOOD TIME ATTEMPT #26

[@kitsychan]

V-1650-7: 1,315 hp (981 kW); Similar to Merlin 66, primary powerplant of the P-51D Mustang. V-1650-9: 1,380 hp (1,030 kW); Based on Merlin 100-series, 2,218 hp WEP with Water methanol injection.

[@rishithadevapriya4157]

Bigger cylinders - Higher displacement - more fuel/air in chamber - more bang - more POWWARRRR

[@Cocokingable1]

WEP runs out because its technically emergency power only, running any longer than 3-5 minutes would cause catastrophic engine failure. Combat power has about 10-15mins of run time before engine damage occurs, then normal power can be used for infinite until fuel runs out.

[@jamesgerrard5428]

loving the unloved 3 inch gun carrier ACE

[@nade5557]

James Gerrard that frontal plate though

[@acescionti711]

The -9 is a larger displacement engine and the nose being made longer means they can make it more smoothed out for aerodynamic reasons and unlike you I get to learn the ins and outs of my aircraft as I grind for its upgrades

[@ScienceRules118]

My guess is that the V-12 in the P-51H has a larger bore on each of the cylinders, which allows them to get more power out of the cylinder.

[@Putaspellonyou]

You know whats really cool? The Pentagon is currently testing aicraft to replace the A-10. Two of the four candidate airframes are turboprops. How awesome would that be, that in the 2020s we could have piston-driven ground attack planes!

[@Rainhill1829]

Two speed, twin stage supercharger added quite a bit of extra engine length.

[@MLGJuggernautgaming]

The reason the stat card isn’t helpful and why you can match the climb rate of the spitfire is the variability of rate of climb. It has to do with power, speed, weight, angle of attack and other variables. But there’s a huge range of rates of climb across air speeds and the fastest possible rate is actually at a much high air speed than you expect. It’s not about pitching up as much as you can, you actually climb faster with more speed, until a certain point.
