I’m spite of the commonly accepted facts about the flight performance of the aircraft these pilots were ACTUALLY FLYING IT not using pointer aim with perfect instrument data constantly represented clearly in the top corner of the screen. Every plane in this game performs FAR above its real life performance simply due to the fact that all human limitations except for decision making are entirely removed

Past 10g, your eyes and blood capilarries can actually pop. A one second, 12 g pull, can temporarily lead to pilot blindness, and permanent spine and vision damage. Sustained 7g+ pulls can also do this. With each additional G of pull above +3g or +4g, adds not linearly, but exponential. So when a f16 or f22 pilot pulls a 7 or 9g pull, the only thing besides their training that keeps them alive, is the leg squeezers and flight controls.

About the whole flight envelope thing. Keep in mind that at the time the Thunderchief was first flown, sub- and transonic aircraft were the mainstay. Most pilots who flew in one first flew in jets like the Sabre or Super Sabre. Going from that to any Mach 2 capable 3rd generation afterburning jet aircraft, the pilots would have absolutely described this aircraft as a brick, no matter if it was an F-105, F-4, or MiG-23. There are numerous reports about the F-4s flying like slugs, being not agile at all, just like the Thunderchief. Same goes with the F-8. But any War Thunder player will tell you that they turn just fine, pretty averagely for the typical jet of similar age and speed profile. This is compounded by the fact that the F-105 was one of the first of these not-very-agile 3rd gen American brick planes, making it all the more likely that pilots used to the subsonic agility of a Sabre would suddenly get put in one of these and complain why he can't turn 180 degrees in 20 seconds anymore. And further compounded by the fact that F-105s typically flew ground attack missions which meant they were weighed down by tons and tons of bombs, making them even more bricklike to fly. I'm willing to bet War Thunder's representation of the Thunderchief is accurate enough, or at least as accurate as War Thunder's planes usually are.

The other thing you have to think about is that War Thunder planes fly like they have a FBW because the game does most of the flying for you. This, combined with the fact that there is no compressor stalling or wing stalling modelled, results in aircraft like the Viggen and Thud being much better at dogfights than they were in real life.
@skyscall
@skyscall 3 жыл бұрын
@@henryoshea4951 Wing stalling is absolutely modeled. It's a requirement for any even vaguely simlike game. Instructor (the AI that pilots your aircraft) has baked-in maximum angle of attack limitations imposed on each and every plane. If it detects an AoA higher than this then it will refuse to pitch the aircraft any harder, making stalls nearly impossible unless you fly using a joystick. Using the WT Assistant app, you can watch your aircraft's angle of attack, thrust, horsepower, engine RPM, and all sorts of other info change in realtime. The flight models are very detailed, more so than some early sims like IL-2 1946.

Remember planes IRL usually start with a full fuel load for long strike missions, especially in Vietnam. Can't wait for her to get custom loadouts to mix AIM-9s and a Chaff pod.

Unlocked this a couple months ago, probably my favorite US jet so far. Everyone seems to be criticizing your comments on the flight envelope so I figured I'd add my shitty hot take: I blame its (former) air spawn. Taking this thing out from the runway with a full bomb load, as you have to today, it absolutely feels like a brick about until you go supersonic, which can take a little while. It's not Scimitar levels of brick but definitely still a brick at least in the initial acceleration. And from what little I know about the Thud's usage in Vietnam, primarily operating it at these lower speeds probably contributed a lot to its brick status, especially against planes like the mig 17 that could dance all over it. The air spawn basically gave it the speed it depends on from the start, and this thing is fast enough to regularly outrun missiles with good positioning. Couple that with good initial snap turn performance and very good energy retention/recovery after bomb release, and I can absolutely see how this could be pretty abusive if used as a pure fighter/interceptor. It's a shame that the main way gaijin balanced it and planes with similar flight profiles was by giving literally everything a runway spawn.

Correct me if I am wrong, but to add to the history section the F-105 was also one of the many bombers to have a ground radar as well and currently we don't have a jet in the game that has one. The reason the radar scope is red is because early ground radars looked like this as well.

Pretty sure it's the wing design that allows it to turn like that but only under 500kmph as if it starts turning above those speeds you'll rip apart quickly. Still the ability to turn so well is a godsend when nearly all the time you face greedy & foolish fighters that go straight for you especially when you're aiding your allies as a stop gap fighter in a furball. The amount of times people will just lemon train onto a Canberra over a much more dangerous fighter in a dogfight is just daft & sad. But for now it'll keep nickname for it The Fat Ballerina (also a movie reference to a fat guy fighting).

Very cool vid and review. I've always liked the look of the 105 and had been waiting for it to appear in the game. I was totally surprised to see it in air to air combat in the game, and just thinking, "that ain't right". So by War Thunder's logic if they ever brought in the Foxbat they would make a nimble fighter as well...lol. Yet, cool to have the Thud in the game.

You could mention, by far, most losses were to anti-aircraft fire.. And the thuds could outrun the MiG-21s and their missiles if enough distance between them. Those early, Russian missiles could not run that long, like AIM-9Bs..

I just started using the Thud. I use is strictly as a bomber with just enough for one base, 14x500 pounders, then 8x750, 7x1000, now 3x2000 pounds. With it I can beat anything on my team to a base except a F-111. I came here to learn a bit about the AIM-9Es. They're a bit disappointing.

I'm in the middle of grinding out my Israeli tech tree, and I'm using the F-84F to start with. Now, to efficiently grind from Tier 6 to Tier 7, the Thunderstreak won't be particularly efficient. I am wondering how the Sa'ar functions in this role. With a useful load of 4x500KG +2 Shafrir-2, but no afterburner, is the Sa'ar actually competitive for a 9.0 BR jet?

The only thing I’ve been killed by 99% of the time in the f105 is any variation of the mig21, it’s the only thing that can keep up with it even with no load out and full afterburner. It’s possible to get up to Mach 1.4 but you’ll be dead by an r60 by then. No escape from mig 21 unfortunately :(
