Opinion: i think the Me 163 was very useful, especially to Alexander Lippish. Since it had a swept wing, an experimental design at the time, Lippish practically tested this and not only confirmed that swept wing aircraft was the way to go, but he also theorised that delta winged aircraft could be a possibility. He would later then help a lot in this field, which is arguably what he's known for nowadays. I could be wrong, any corrections are appreciated

[@dustinmorecraft8699]

I've actually become a bit of a professional flying the Ki-200, getting about 5 to 6 kills per match and usually surviving to the end. If you can get really good and and survive the repair cost becomes practically nothing even when you do die every so often, simply because of how much money you get in return. Honestly, the Ki-200 is my favorite plane in Warthunder, and I can even out perform Sabers and Migs. A few tips of mine are 1: Only use about 50% throttle most of the time you are in the air. 2: Make sure you use landing flaps when taking off, because it likes to bounce on the runway past 200 KMH, then quickly retract them once off the ground. 3: Try not to head on other planes, if you get caught going head to head with another plane, fire a small burst and quickly turn off, your plane will most likely explode or your pilot will die if you get shot, so use your maneuverability to your advantage. I typically like to do a turn into a half spiral ascending and quickly turn behind the enemy plane. 4: One of my most important points, stay near your allies and stay above or at the same level as your enemies, it will give you an advantage.

[@fahmihardian7778]

Great tips, thank you. Was wondering to this time how to utilize that little rocket plane with 5 mins of fuel and barely any armor. Preferrably using the -30 or -40 Sabre. Anyway, is it worth to carry 1 min of fuel in any case?

[@dustinmorecraft8699]

@@fahmihardian7778 That one minute of fuel only gets you off the air strip, so in reality you only get about 4 minutes of fuel once taken off, and about 3 minutes once you reach 3000 meters in altitude. So always take max fuel.

[@khlobbia]

you wont really need to be above or similar altitude as enemies, as you can easily throttle up and negate the altitude advantage instantly

[@dustinmorecraft8699]

@@khlobbia That's usually not a good idea if other enemies are near, because if you try to climb you lose speed the more vertical you face. All it does is give the enemy more advantage; I've seen many people even in rocket planes get baited like that and they die at the start of the match.

Chasing a ghost. Rocket motors were suitable for Point Defense interception; a concept soon bankrupt as technologies for standoff and ballistic missiles improved. Once bombers did not have to pass over heavily defended targets in order to bombard them, the need for a Point Defense Interceptor vanished and the age of the long range All Weather Interceptor (and its AA Missiles) began. That's a tactical utility appraisal. Additionally: 1) Soviet BI (and some other) fighter projects used "red fuming" Nitric Acid as an Oxidizer. Glass tanks broke; metal tanks melted; pilots were literally eaten out of their protective suits. That's the origin of the "Gray Alien" trope: acid burned, half dissolved, test pilots*. 2) Deutscher Raketen plane projects pursued both conventional take-off and landing craft like the Me163, and the Ba349, a rail launched Point Defense Interceptor. German oxidizer was "85% pure" Hydrogen Peroxide, another incredibly dangerous stoff to organic tissues. More glass tanks, more pilots eaten alive and the odd inexplicable mid air explosion. *That's what they were testing at Area 51, btw. Odd shapes, rocket propulsion, and pilots eaten out of their suits.

[@ianrobertsonpiano]

It's difficult to ascertain how effective planes like the Komet were because the fuels were so volatile and without strict procedures and maintenance, they could easily mix and explode. Receiving any battle damage would likely have been catastrophic, for similar reasons. But the situation was made even more difficult by the fact that the factories they were built in were often staffed by POWs and dissenters who were actively trying to sabotage the aircraft during production. Germany may have had some brilliant ideas but the conditions they faced made it almost impossible to create something and properly test it before putting it into battle, let alone provide quality assurance.

@@j.r.2087 the A-10 is too specific though that’s why I think it would be hard to add because it does not really go anywhere with top tier jets because it’s slow and heavy and flys low to the ground so any spaa or jet will kill it almost instantly

[@Seems12345]

@@humanhuman5024 well there are bombers like that so I think they will. It one of the most requested vehicles.

[@humanhuman5024]

@@Seems12345 those are generally low tier and won’t meet radar AA or jet planes and the ones that do you can clearly see they don’t work That’s why I said the warthog would be too good at low br but too bad at high br It’s the same problem the maus and the e-100 had it does not fit anywhere because too high br makes it get penned by heat but low br makes it way to strong

whenever i hear of the komet the first thing that comes to mind is my local air museum where they have a me 163 along with the take off wheels but what always stuck was the amount of times they said the risk of the pilot being cremated by the fuel tank that sits just behind the seat

@@iknowwhereyoulive7661 You mean they’re weak? Yes they are, that’s why they fly in formation irl. Minengeschoß rounds are designed to kill bombers. Also they’re already much tougher than fighters in the game. You have to spray 20mms, while fighters are dead after 3-5 good hits.

Amazing job Bruce!

[@danielbolam5387]

They were certenly an interesting idea, its a shame the fuel was so unstable and volotile for them, the liquid fuel came as a 2 part mixture and when mixed created huge amouts of power to the point that if fuel tanks were not cleaned out properly between flights the aircraft would explode, plus the grusome habbit the fuel had of melting the pilots if any of it leaked into the cabin which given the dodgy landing sled happend more than a fiew times

The Komet can also go supersonic at high altitudes. It wants to go past Mach 1.1 but the plane in-game can't handle those speeds. BI probably can go over Mach 1 too in the game but have fun trying to control that.

[@nickkurzy2246]

@@longhorne1096 arguably the Japanese kikka was an improvement over the 262. The fuselage shape was more acclimated for the speeds the aircraft would operate at and the removal of 2 of the 30mm cannon increased it's maneuverability. Again, I say 'arguably' because we don't have much flight performance data on the kikka (to my knowledge) and both aircraft were made in relatively small numbers with subpar materials, making a true evaluation of the aircrafts' capabilities difficult.

The rocket powered interceptors and the rocket bombs drew the starting line for the space race, were it not for the recorded flight data, rocket science in the 60s would have been more difficult. All thanks to sir Wernher Von Braun for his rocket designs that we reached the moon, and at a later time, in the 70s we have the Space shuttles capable of suborbit and reentry. I qould say that the rocket interceptors and the flying bombs are a marvelous piece of technology that helped shape the world as it is today

[@infpintp2486]

well to me , they could have make a limit over the throttle when diving and when climbing up or anything alike , just imagine what you can do with it . you can out speed maybe slow missile and even better makes your enemy climb to the top which they will lose over . simply it's like a jet engine on steroid but with heavy downside over fuel and top speed .
