The Vilkas in War Thunder is a Lithuanian Light Tank that has a 30mm Bushmaster Cannon and Spike Missiles.
The Vilkas is definitely a weird looking tank. It's actually very fast and the cannon is ok. The problem is the battle rating and the fact that Spikes are absolutely useless.
Spike Missiles need a bit of a buff. Probably. Maybe not! :)

and they also top attack IRL, in game they just hit straight on. The spike SR (short range) will just hit the side of vehicles the LR that the vilkas or kf41 have are supposed to fly up in the air and then slam down on a vehicle from a very steep angle. Conveniently that would hurt russian tanks the most as they have a big ol' ammo carrousel right under the roof.

@loadout3727 4 ай бұрын
@@MyWaifuNow yeah but it doesn't even slam straight down, it is always weirdly angled, the charge generates little to no splinters which makes no sense. The core problem isn't the bad spikes tho, no it is the selection of the vehicle itself, it makes no sense to add vehicle which carries a missile that is effective on a range of 350 meters, when most battles are on much shorter distances, because of the general gameplay, maps and vehicle pool. Rather choosing a different vehicle with different weapon selection (or fixing the missile to be useful, can go away from reality like russian tanks lol ) or anything else would have been much smarter and better

They do get a warning in the last few seconds. But the average heli pilot aint really smart (coming from a French tiger player), so they think it's a SAM and sticking to the ground is going to work.

The failed scout on the bmp is probably due to elevation and scouting. Because it was at a lower elevation, the scouting struggles with it. as compared to the ags you scouted later which was on level ground with you. I tend to aim just below the enemy tracks when scouting from a higher place, it usually results in a successful scout.

The visas is very good great support wheeled vehicle. Fast good for flanking. The missile has to be used on targets at least 300m away to hit accurately and since the atgm is slow if you are able to immobilize your enemy it’s going to hit well. Can’t just sling spikes expecting them to splash every time. Used in the right situation they are deadly. Also I’d carry an HE belt to deal with helicopters much easier.

This thing will definitely suffer from what i call "Marderitis", a tragic case where your unmanned turret will fly off if any shrapnel touches your ammo belt. In seriousness though, ive always hated that the 20mm belt in the Marder can cause a cook off when getting hit. Defeats the entire point of the turrent being unmanned and kinda feels like a bit of bs. Idk if that would actually happen with 20mm or not but still.

From my experience Spikes only really get kills when YOU are already dead. I think this is because the player you shoot at doesn’t expect the missile to still be guided and turns to shoot or do something else than looking straight at your now dead body -> hitting center mass in side usually downwards angle hitting ammo. But when you are alive they are still looking in your direction and you will most of the time hit the barrel or breach.

I have seen them do very well and I have decided it's down to one thing - not the damage, not the missiles, not the player using it. The fact it makes absolutely zero noise. You can't hear it driving, shooting, or the sounds of the shots hitting you. Any time I have seen it, its dead but when they go unseen they are also unheard.

As for anti air, the spikes won't loft high enough to get helicopters at a significant distance despite the '20 KM' range it boasts, and if they do even basic moves it can throw the missile's tracking right off. If it were the QN506, it would kill. The spikes? Garbage.

And IRL the spike is actually pretty good. You could say it's an israeli variant of the javelin. My country uses it and I fired a couple in weapon familiarization training.

As long as you dont center your gameplay around the Spikes, its a fine tank. Plays like a VBC or similar light scout IFV. Plenty of empty space so your crew just watches the APFSDS fly through. I'd just fire off Spikes at every random opportunity, if they kill its fine, if they dont its ok. At least they're pretty reliable against heli cancer so that alone makes the Vilkas an A+ tier tank in my book. Now if only the PUMA would get spikes too (and a BR increase to 11.0) ...

The issue with all these top down attack missiles is none of them properly top attack. Rather than descending in a downward curve into the top of the turret they they are supposed to all these missiles (including the ones on the Chinese terminator tank) just dip down into direct fire a meter away and end up hitting the heaviest armor of the tank. Gaijin needs to make it so the missile autopilot aims at center mass of the turret FROM THE TOP

The QN506 is actually a strong support vehicle that has aged like fine wine. Has a valid place in my 11.7 lineup. No way I'd sell it for a KV220.

I was genuinely excited to see one of the boxer variants coming in at first But then, I realised it was on a German tree, which...okay, fine, it's not my usual tree that I play but I guess I can use it as a grinder for German tech tree ...*reads about the spike* ...oh no...#1 ...*read it's ammo capacity* ...oh NO...#2 Tried it in test drive, and the spike's minimum range couldn't hit the IT-1... Like- as a British player...who constantly have to deal with less than Stellar tanks -A Warrior would be preferable with it's Controlable MILAN + APDS that are somehow only slightly worse than Vikas's darts, while being a whole TWO br lower...sure, it doesn't get stabilisers but it still a better alternative -Striker‐Swing fire, the two arcing missiles carrier have way less minimum engaging distance for their missiles compare to this thing's spike ...tldr I didn't wound up spending hours and hours grinding for this thing and just been waiting for the inevitable "This thing sucks", and I'm very much glad to hear it in the start of this video xD

Idk if I’d say it’s crap, it’s just really situational and hard to use well. I don’t really use the spikes against tanks but instead to smack helis out of the air before they can do too much damage to the team, but the main gun is really lackluster. I tend to have to dump 20-30 rounds of APFSDS into the side of MBTs to get kills way too often, and the APDS rounds are borderline unusable which makes the stock grind horrible
