Looks like you were so good they are now moving it to 7.0 We finally reached such high levels of compression that prop fighters will play against AAM-equipped jets (This Spitfire, 7.0, vs the German premium Sea Hawk Mk.100, 8.0)

[@CyberRelic280]

It would be facing jets with early heat seeking missiles which means those jets probably would not be able to lock on to the spitfire mk.24 since its engine is in the front and doesn’t give off as much heat as a jet engine. To get a lock you’d have to be super close making it easy for the spitfire mk.24 to dodge.

[@Dovoline3]

Honestly I find the Mk 24 to be more fun fighting jets than fighting props. Prop fights tend to get kind of same-y since there are so few things that can really compete with you, but with jets the situation can change so rapidly even in a 1v1 that you have to constantly adapt your tactics. It's also surprisingly doable given the performance difference, honestly the hardest part is knowing how much you need to lead a given target, since jet speeds can get kind of deceptive sometimes.

I have outran many planes before. It's achilles heel: against good players - nothing. disengage against average players - try to make him overshoot (without dying) and use that small window of opportunity to kill him against bad players - mommys credit card won't save them lol just try and outturn them because they'll most likely engage flaps, 0% throttle etc etc

What's up with props being better then jets at altitude? Shouldn't jet engines have much less power loss with altitude then even two stage two speed supercharged piston engines?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Good question! Piston engines with superchargers actually see an increase in power with altitude, at least until they start losing manifold pressure and need to switch gears. Basically props have their performance throttled at low altitude, while jets have their max power at low altitude. So as altitude increases, jets' performance reduces and props stays relatively constant. Another point to mention is that IAS reduces as altitude increases, and props handle better than jets at lower IAS.

Thanks! Eh I'm staying away from jets that aren't starter jets for now though.

[@cqpp]

@@AdamTheEnginerd that's totally understandable especially nowadays where jet gameplay above 7.0 is a mess

[@kamalal-hamid4634]

Can u do a video on the p47 d22re; I kinda struggle with it; it’s not really that fast in my experience… or do one on the p51 d5 pls

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Both are on my list!

[@radius507]

Can you maybe make a refresher bud or smt on prop pitch? A lot of planes don’t have an auto setting and I’m not sure how to use it. It’s the only control that I still haven’t got down, I’ve even got mixture and stuff.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Hmm my general MEC video talks about prop pitch tips.

[@liamboyle9199]

Amazing how quickly you eat fuel with a griffon spit on WEP😬

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yup, gotta load 30.

[@kidpagronprimsank05]

225 gallon/hr or hp is no joke, especially high octane ones

[@gopalpatel3163]

Can you do the j2m5, the premium one with 30mm cannons

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Maybe!

[@jakethesnake9621]

Welcome!

[@danb4900]

I cant believe that War Thunder has got to the point that a spitfire can potentially face an La 200 in official matchmaking

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yeah, and it'll get worse in the next update (BR to 7.0).

[@Zelectrocutica]

Mk.24: will go to 7.0 soon. P-51H: haha my club stick go ham. What a joke.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Club stick go ham?

[@Zelectrocutica]

@@AdamTheEnginerd Oh, i mean P51 H is 6.3 right? and that thing will out perform every prop driven aircraft, if play it right is basically untouchable. Even mk24 and p51 h is sit at the 6.3 br i would still pick p 51h, it's just a better plane overalls imo.

[@anneallison6402]

@@Zelectrocutica it has 10 min wep, I have no problems killing it everytime in ta152h or yak 3u neither the mk24

[@ijnhieibb5140]

Confusion of the highest order XD watching this when it came out I was genuinely confused XD still a great video on the spitty thank you again Adam now I wait patiently for a Yak-23 video usu

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Hahaha that was a funny event. Thanks!

[@Turk3YbAstEr]

Adam, have you flown the La-7 since the ShVAK buff? Thing was already plenty good and but now it can really clean house

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Nope, I should though.

[@Xiphactinus]

I think all guns have been buffed, which is nice!

[@Turk3YbAstEr]

@@AdamTheEnginerd Outflying enemies in that thing was never the problem, but it could sometimes take a lot of ammo to shoot stuff down. now i'm regularly taking wings off in deflection shots. it's made a big dfifference.
