War Thunder [SIM|VR] - Skilled Mustang Pilot (J2M3 vs P-51D-30)

Vidar1945 is an outstanding pilot and he shot me down many times, mainly with his Spitfire Mk IX. Today I was able to catch him off guard and having a little more energy than him. He tried to force an overshoot but I was careful as I knew it was him.

ah nice, I don't like anyone flying P-51 besides me

[@ATC83]

Hahaha!

[@flawleesvictoryapolok9589]

Oh! Vidar1945 is a great P-51 pilot. One of my longest and best fights on my bf 109 was against him (neither survived). kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIvMYnWsrtOUrac Regarding this fight, great kill as ever!

[@ATC83]

Thanks man! Yeah he's an outstanding pilot, he killed me many times with Spits too. I'll watch that fight right away!

[@ATC83]

Turns out I had already watched that amazing fight, but I watched it again. Beautiful!

[@flawleesvictoryapolok9589]

@@ATC83 thanks for watching that video again! Now I remember that you had made a very funny comment about a bomb... hahaha! o7

[@r.c.a.f_lynx9992]

Not that skilled. If he was skilled he would have just extended away from you very easily.

[@ATC83]

Yeah that's what anyone with a little experience on the P-51 would do, and rightly so. That said there are a few aces like AdelWolf, HelloRoger and Vidar1945 that can actually dogfight with the thing. Watch this if you don't believe me: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZjIk3ynbK6VgKM

[@flatspinwarthunder6489]

he is Vidard right? so hard to catch him. nice job bro :))

[@ATC83]

Thanks bro! Yeah that's him. Oh yeah he's hard to catch indeed :)

[@its-butters58]

Nice job - in this match i believe. I was in an f4u though. He was smart to try and one circle you but you cant out-slow the j2! Good fight!

[@ATC83]

Thanks! Yeah he did good but the J2 is hard to shake. You were in this match too? I didn't notice I would've said hi

[@its-butters58]

@AboveTheClouds83 it was brief - my brother had no SL so we went into a lower tier match to bomb. We'll fight one day soon

[@ATC83]

​@@its-butters58 Oh ok. Yep, looking forward to it!

[@its-butters58]

@AboveTheClouds83 i'm nervous - you're clearly very talented. We'll have to go with a couple different combinations of aircraft lol

[@ATC83]

@@its-butters58 Yeah sure we can try different combinations

[@Avetorro]

That was heck of a turn at 0:37

[@ATC83]

Indeed. Those P-51D's can turn exceptionally well at high speeds... The J2 compresses much more as expected

[@Avetorro]

@@ATC83 yeah I flew them for a while. What impressed me most was that in a 500mph dive you can just yank that stick back and zoom right back up again with ease. Doesn’t seem to compress at all. Most other planes need elevator trim to pull up at that speed.

[@ATC83]

@@Avetorro Yeah impressive. AdelWolf killed me once like that, he extended in a long dive, turned brutally back up and sniped me from half a mile away. It makes you look at P-51's differently lol. Fortunately Mustang pilots like him are few and far between :)
