Well done. It's a shame that bomber pilots can't seem to figure out that Air RB is PvP first and foremost. You go into that mode, people are gonna shoot you. Either shoot back, or accept that you WILL be shot down. I will say that as the event has died down, I've actually noticed a decrease in bomber spam on Allied teams, and an increase in the quality of fighter pilots. They're climbing and sticking together, now! That's probably the best side-effect of the cannon buff-bomber pilots seem to be fleeing Air RB.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

I think the decrease in Allied bombers is due to the fact that Allied bombers can't unload their bombs anymore, and so only the good fighter pilots continue to fly Allies, propping up the Allied war effort.

[@alucaard9591]

Adam would you explain to me what is supercharger and how I use it

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

First off, if you don't use Manual Engine Controls (MEC), it handles everything for you. Manually changing the supercharger gears instead doesn't yield any performance advantages. Superchargers are used to compress the air, allowing more fuel to be burnt to produce more power. But, compressing the air requires power, so it's a tradeoff. As you climb, eventually it becomes worth it to switch supercharger gears which means compressing even more air to burn fuel to compensate for the loss of atmospheric pressure as you climb.

[@peterjensen9468]

>if you fly the b29, you take the risk of paying repairs that's why you don't fly the b29 in the first place. >blame wg This may come as a surprise to you, but War Thunder is made by Gaijin Entertainment, not Wargaming

6:23 What does Supercharger Gear mean? this is the first time ever seeing this in game.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Oh damn you're missing out on some of what WT offers! It's part of Manual Engine Controls (MEC). By default the game handles MEC, but you can take control of the engine yourself for a bit of extra performance if you know what you're doing. A supercharger spins to compress the air before feeding it to the engine in order to burn more fuel to produce more power. As the altitude increases, pressure (air density) reduces and the supercharger doesn't spin fast enough to fully compress the air, so on most aircraft you can switch supercharger gears to increase the supercharger speed to compress the air more at a higher altitude. The game handles this by default if you don't enable MEC.

[@thanosthethiccfarmer1850]

@@AdamTheEnginerd Oh by the way, since I'm a German Tech Tree Player and I'm on the FW 190 A4 which is the highest fighter I have right now, which fighters will I see with Superchargers?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

There's a bunch of other MEC settings other than supercharger gears, you need to learn all of them to be able to use MEC effectively. You can see me mess with prop pitch and radiators in this match. German aircraft automatically handle the supercharger system even when on MEC, so you wouldn't be able to manually switch gears on them. They still do have superchargers though. If you're asking which aircraft you'll face that have superchargers, answer is all of them except P47s, P38s, and F82 (they have turbochargers). There are tutorials on KZbin that explain how to set up MEC. But, it's a distraction unless you are already a good player.

[@ghostrider.49]

Air Raid The fact that you have no chances with bombers is no excuse for being a douchebag though. And that is if they had no chances. They actually do, especially planes like the Tu-4 and of course the B-29, their chances may not be high, but they can hurt you if you don't do things right, and even if you do there's that slim chance that you can get set on fire or some shit, as is proven at the end of Adam's video when he was approaching that bomber from 10 o'clock and above which is an excellent angle with very little chances to get hit, yet he still suffered heavy damage.

[@vietnamabc2290]

@@vietnamabc2290 can you still play gunship eith bombers these days?

A B17 battleship fight ended in 10s when we both went down in flames. Bombers are at an all time low right now. I actually would like to see at least a survivability buff to those poor things. They will cost a lot but I want my battleship fights back! And if buffing is too much for the game balance then they could just lower the altitude ceiling for bombers. Having sucess in a bomber would be still impossible then.

You need to set up Manual Engine Controls (MEC). DEFYN made a video on how to set it up then I made a follow up video with some tips on how to use it, you should watch those videos.

[@jordani.5926]

You can't put all of the blame on bomber pilots seeing that gaijin made them utterly useless on 50% of air rb maps. Some people just want to fly bombers and be able to contribute to their team but i dont think that could ever be possible

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

I put the blame on them for flying useless aircraft. I blame Gaijin for making bombing useless. I can blame more than 1 person when there's more than 1 issue ;).

[@Hadgerz]

This still happens. The 'grinders' that a) climb to space in 264s or b29s and b) sit on the deck and let others do all the work need their own game mode i think. A PvE mode where they can just sit and click on stationary targets all day without inconveniencing everyone else. that "REPORTED" at the end...hope a moderator read the chat log and threw the book at him but i doubt it greatly

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yup, there are solutions but they won't be implemented.

we want a7m2 ufo then :D

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

That's more like it!

[@ArturKorobeynyk]

I loved doing it in Me-262 with 50mm gun from 1.5-1.8 km distance below the bomber

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Never had much success with that technique.

[@mugenstein]

People with K/D ratio less than 0.5 should be denied the ability to chat in this game...

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Meh, chat is often amusing.

[@Talguy21]

K/D doesn't correlate with behavior. You could have the super casual guy who gets 0.1 kills a match and still laughs it up and has fun, talks nice with his team. Or you could have the dude who gets a double ace every game but does nothing but flame their teammates for 'sucking'. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@MH-km8ik]

I try bomber hunting with Hispanos or even ShVAKs (these have a mind of their own), and they're both like nightmares to me. Then I switch over to pretty much anything else besides these 2 (and a little bit Type 99 Mk 1s, which to me seem decent but not the best) and they just rek the bombers.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yeah Hispanos are a pain for everyone. Some people like Shvaks I think.

[@newsflashasshole7205]

Try different approaches finding blindspots going fast af or kill them with a teammate i manage to down bombers with a zero and im pretty average to bad on this game

Can you make video on the F4U-7?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Eventually I will, when I progress enough in the French tree haha.

[@acecarpenter502]

@@AdamTheEnginerd awesome! Looking forward to it. Lol

[@Zarastro54]

I realized real quick that doing the tasks in RB in anything but a jet bomber was totally impractical. I did the tasks doing 7.0-7.3 Arcade games in a Lancaster. The games were low populated enough so that the chance of someone going high to intercept was reduced (still got shot down a ton of times though), and the refilling bombs along with hyper-durable bases was essential for getting the tonnage needed to fulfill the task (relatively) quickly.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

That must be why the Arado was spammed lol.

[@King_Diablo_]

Can I request you do any Italian fighter above rank 2 and below rank 3?

[@amanooelalkpa5673]

i can see why the me 262 started attacking ground targets, its not like he can climb to 5k to attack a b29.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

There were 2 low bombers though...

[@scruggs6633]

I don't understand why the B-29 was salty. Does ejecting save repair costs? He said he'd eject but then turned and ran anyway

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Ejecting might save a bit since the crew is saved, but the reason people eject is to take the kill away from the enemy to spite them.

[@dr.michaelr.foreman2170]

I have 377 bombers shot down with Japanese planes. You need 500 bombers killed for that special victory decals. As you can imagine, I am using the spam of bombers at this time to reach the 500 kill mark.

[@dr.michaelr.foreman2170]

100% prop pitch in a steep dive like that in your video, in a real plane, would cause the RPMs to soar, and thus, your engine to blow up. I always drop my prop pitch right back to 40% in a steep dive. In IL2 Sturmovik, I have actually had engines blow up in a steep dive with 100% prop pitch. But I guess Gaijin isn't all that worried about reality only cheating for their friends.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Sound plan! Logically your engine would only overrev if you are going much faster than your max straight line speed. The RPMs never reach high enough to do damage as long as you're on 0% throttle, except on Fw190s and Ta152s.

Another great video! Hey Adam, can you tell me what is the best nation/tree to start for the beginners?

Thanks mate! I recommend UK, since the beginner's instinct is to turn and it isn't catastrophic if you're in a UK aircraft.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

I guess because it climbs well lol.

Well but you can say that about the Hornet as well from where I know XD

[@ethandehoff3517]

Does this aircraft (the Ki-83) also suffer from "heavy fighters can't dogfight" syndrome?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

It can't 1vs1 stuff, it requires the energy advantage to be effective. So I would say yes.

[@deekamikaze]

Hey man I just started watching your videos and they're very educational. I like to fly the wyvern and while I am decent at ground attack, I suck at it with fighting because I know it's not a fighter. Can I challenge you to take it out as a fighter or a support and learn from you?

[@davidpark9462]

Yeah. I wouldn't fly the rest of the Japanese twin fighters in a dogfight. I do own a Ki-96 (premium) too, but even that one doesn't work for me.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Had success with the Ki45 (very low tier), but that's probably due to enemies not really knowing how to fly.

(Tank RB actually requires more skill than air RB since there ain't distance indicator) btw, my major air RB is focused with bf109s, fw190s and some murica A-36 (10 mgs), any advice with these planes?

The pilots in air RB are way better than in tank RB though. Those 3 aircraft are very different from each other. I have Bf109 and Fw190 videos.

Not to mention when one match I was above 2 spitfires and said "JAPAN" they both dived straight into the ground from 7000m, this is exactly the plane I wanted "I fear no man but that thing". This and cw-21 very nice planes.
