“They have some kind of Jamming technology” also known as Gaijin having terrible servers

*cues 8 min crew lock*

[@illuminaticonfirmed3579]

That just happened to me as I was playing

[@mayonotes9849]

Yeah. Gaijin is screwing up the game even more with these horrible BR changes thanks to them not decompressing the BR by expanding it to more than fucking 10.7

[@derrickstorm6976]

Well, now that we have a firm grasp of the obvious...

[@weihao8575]

server hamster is dying of hunger

[@fallout200]

You know gaijin has been cutting back servers when even content creators experience server issues.

[@FallenPhoenix86]

Nah, you know they've been cutting back on server maintenance when its a day that ends in a Y...

They play on the exact same potato servers as us lmao

"I'm being water-boarded under the boat now:" I think the phrase you're looking for is that the Royal Navy is keelhauling me as punishment for my less than adequate landing.

Well that’s on them for expecting anyone to succeed a landing with the permanent drift

[@cheesuschrist5017]

I like how Bo and company are playing their jets like props and getting away with it.

[@blademaster2390]

Well…these are low-rank jets. They…really arent much different

[@the_rumblemaster1375]

6:22 and here we see bo keelhauling

[@christoffsimons7569]

My squad and I were in that first game. You could see use in the background right before the "jamming"

I was in that game too, I assume you were in the squad of 3 F2G's and a P-51

[@no-mads21st23]

"Flying Dorito" Starscream be something interesting with Ho229

[@GaldirEonai]

So, fun fact: The "smokescreen in the air" thing was actually tried, in the form of a rear-firing flamethrower. If a pursuing plane got close enough to get burned, that was of course a nice outcome, but even if not, the thick black sooty cloud would do a number on their windscreen. The plan was abandoned when saner minds realized that putting a pressurized tank of flamethrower fuel on a plane was just asking for sudden fireballs.

[@blademaster2390]

14:15 “If you’re a sentient ham i need to kill you immediately” That is the most amazing quote i have ever heard. I want to use it somewhere, but i doubt i’ll ever get the chance, and that makes me sad.

[@DDragon501]

I only recently learned the F-80 fought in Korea, so I’m glad to see this plane in action! Great video as always!

[@supadude1013]

this is the luckiest man alive. He is not constantly attacked by mig 9s in jet rb.

[@razgrizz5996]

13:58 "Phrasing" Bear probably

[@tonywu1222]

3:23 was one of the best scenes ever.

[@sabregunner1]

Another classic TBLF vid. way to put on a clinic. Keep it up guys

[@ChillBing]

Thx BO for playing jets.

[@PixelNorse]

The bit at the beginning were Bear goes past you to kill that guy following you, I have to say was cool, I watched it a couple times, the sound of his fighter going past and the vapor kick up from the sea is awesome.

[@DivineUkrainian]

When you get kicked by packet loss, is more disappointing than an unsalted pretzel.

[@chunkofpooellis4634]

love this plane

[@dakotaboi7988]

“Ham I don’t know if you know but there is a flying dorito Chasing you” Best quote ever

In war thunder when there’s a plane above me I’m essentially the equivalent of a dumb pilot in a Star Wars film, I scream for a second then immediately die

[@olsonaviation9382]

I have an rc model t-33 which is basically a p-80 with no guns and wing tanks They fly like a dream I got to fly it for a guy who flew them in the air force which was pretty cool

[@ericsuter-bull1359]

That last time Bo flew this plane, it was called the P-80

[@cristobalarriagada673]

that´s the sneakiest nordvpn ad i've ever seen at 14:52

[@johnschwaninger410]

I just got this plane and have been struggling to learn to fly it and stock grind. This really help me learn what I can and can’t do in early jets

[@trankhackinh6134]

Fly out the F 86 its much more fun!

[@RedAssassin274]

Keep your speed, always keep your speed, don't even try to turn if there's other enemies near you!

[@cheesuschrist5017]

John- don't turn, the F-80 is fairly fast and accelerates well for a beginning jet. However, the F-84 B is much better as it is only .3 br higher and is about 100 mph (160kph) faster. With the F-84B, your acceleration is absolutely shit so get up to about 550-600 kph (around 350 mph) in a slight climb, climb to 4 km, then dive into the furball(at least 750 kph speed at the bottom of your dive), make a gun run on a 229 or something that has been turning/has less energy, then go straight and wait for any pursuers to break off, zoom back to altitude, and repeat. This works for the F-80 too, but it isn't as fast.

[@benusethisaccount5671]

iron eagle,wonderful movie.

[@flogger3858]

I would like to see more jets flown on this channel but overall its still a good video

“Ham, I don’t know if you noticed, but there’s a flying dorito trying to eat you.”

[@jyspekv2gaming257]

The Doritos are fighting back

[@adamfellenbeck9289]

I love it that in the last battle Ham shot down a guy named NordVPN.

[@spindash64]

I might just be weird, but I find early Jets to be a fun tier to play in WT. not perfect by any means, but Shooting Stars and Meteors vs 262s and Hortons tends to feel at least acceptable and believable

[@_Funtime60]

The trick to avoiding packet loss right now is to play on EU servers from the US. It makes my 70ms ping go to 140ms (ocean and all that), but my PL goes from 5% to 0% since the EU hamsters get healthier feed so it's much better to play on.

[@GavinGunstream]

the poster of bear and bo almost killed me it was so funny

[@deadendfriends1975]

Fun paint scheme on it

[@TrickiVicBB71]

That Arado and Mig9 fight was thrilling to watch.
