I just bring out whatever tier II - IV premium plane I feel like using into air rb and do my best. There might be faster ways to gain SL, but fuck bending the way you play just to get maybe 10-20% more SL in the same amount of time.

So, Japan is pretty much confirm to be handheld as fuck when it comes out, right?

>Retarded levels of Explosive Filler in their APHE shells. We know how much Gaijin loves their Explosive Filler in the shells and how much they hate Solid shot.
>Paper Armor means that Nations that use only Solid Shot and APDS shells like Britain and America to a lesser extent(They got some APHE shells themselves) means that most rounds will overpen
>Its going to be pair up with Germany, another handheld nation.
>The low penetration in their shells means jackshit since most American and British tanks are not that well armored and can be killed with SPAA except for a few heavy tanks so if their shells are above 100mm of pen they will be alright. Only Russians will be an issue but with Germany at their side they should do fine.
>They'll have access to their Japanese Air Tree with excellent fighters but subpar attackers, meaning they can dominate the skies while Germany fucks the ground up.

So, pretty much Japan is going to be one shotting tanks left and right when they come out. They're going to be handheld as hell for the first 5 months till Gaijin gets all their money from the playerbase and then will be forced to make changes to how HE works and maybe buff Solid Shots.

He's responsible for all that shit simply because he's the biggest drooling autistic retard in a company of mouthbreathers. N1K2 was fixed a long time ago, N1K1 is still better than the N1K2 for reasons, but it's still 5,7 and thus slow as shit. Most other FMs underperform and most planes have fucked BRs. Japan is literally the most fucked up nation.

That variant comes with no tail gunner, and bombload is pitful, 2 x 250 kg IIRC.
As for guns, Hs 129 is all around better, 30 mm kills tanks with AP, and AI tanks with minememes. And if somehow you still lack pen for GF battles, you can strap 37 mm that not only easily pens top of tanks, but sides as well.
Also guns on HS are center firing, while ones in IL spread a lot, if you're not within optimal range.

>>161346976
>>161347092
At which point some of these designs were actually thought of and at which one they're just made up bullshit by horny naziboos?

Why is the A-1a me 262 so much fun? I usually despise jets, but I feel like the 262 can play like a jet when it needs to to bully 6.3 props, but you can maneuver like a fucking hummingbird to outplay other jets. It also helps that it's a jet that wehrboos love so they spade it, while P-80s and F-84s are jets Americans just want to get over with until they can have their Sabres.

Also, is the Ho 229 worth it if I don't like ground pounding? How does it play when compared to the me 262? Which is better in air-to-air?

>>161347162
The dorito was actually designed, the engine was tested just before the end of the war.
Specifically it's supposed to be able to use coal instead of petrolium because guess what the Nazis were fucking retards and were running out of quality gas for their planes.

What the dorito did was have a big mesh basket inside the turbine full of coal particles, this would be ignited and in theory would facilitate thrust.
How well it actually worked I have no idea, I just know it did.

>it's supposed to be able to use coal instead of petrolium
Neato

>>161347586
Yeah
From the bickibedia
It was initially proposed that a wire-mesh basket holding coal be mounted behind a nose air intake, protruding slightly into the airflow and ignited by a gas burner. Following wind-tunnel testing of the ramjet and the coal basket, modifications were incorporated to provide more efficient combustion. The coal was to take the form of 135–180 kg (300–400 lb) of small granules instead of irregular lumps, to produce a controlled and even burn, and the basket was altered to a mesh drum revolving on a vertical axis at 60 rpm. A jet of flame from tanks of bottled gas would fire into the basket once the P.13a had reached operating speed (above 320 km/h), whether by using a RATO unit or being towed. The air passing through the ramjet would take the gases from the burning coal towards the rear where they would mix under high pressure with clean air taken from a separate intake. The resulting mixture of gas would then be directed out through a rear nozzle to provide thrust. A burner and drum were built and tested successfully in Vienna by the design team before the end of the war. The theoretical flight time was 45 minutes.

It'll meme early SPAA's, open top tanks, light tanks and even that 88mm "SPAA" the germans got recently, but it won't be that effective until Gaijin stops hating on the japanese and decides to add its HEAT shell with 55mm pen.

Won't be the best anti-GF plane out there, but will surely give some breathing space for allied planes and hunt bombers like a motherfucker.

>>161356750
So basically everything that fighters can already kill just fine with MGs

>>161356862
Pretty much. At least they'll stay dead more often, when you pepper someone with mg's they get a ton of spawn points.

>>161356862

Ever tried shooting a SPAA with a P-39's 37mm HE? You can blow shit in one or two hits if you barely aim at their ammo/crewmen. So imagine now a round almost double the size with a buttload more explosive filling in it.

This thing will be a 1hit-kill wonder, and as >>161357397 mentioned, won't give them the luxury of another respawn. Just so you get an idea, it kills light pillboxes in 1 hit without fail.

I actually stumbled across some old gameplay from 2013 on some guys youtube channel. God how I wish I could go back and play Warthunder in 2013. Everything looked so much nicer, less washed out. It still hurts.

>>161357862
The nice thing about MG fire is that it disorients them and fucks up their aim while you approach, as well as kills crewmen and damages modules. With your big HE shill they're more likely to pick you off as you approach or if your shell misses.

When will thea make this game good?

>>161358213
the plane would flip its self over on startup because of it's small wheelbase

>>161358323

I'm starting to get convinced you guys never even touched a Ki-102 before.

As I said, it has a buttload of explosive. Just hitting near the target is enough to damage it badly (or exploding a truck). Also, the cannon is like in the GF forces, once you get used to the ballistics, you can predict the shell's trajectory and estimate more or less when to shoot. I agree that sprinkling bullets disorient them, but the big bad shell allows you to shoot from a reasonably safe distance rather than having to get close to aim at modules.

I believe it's a matter of practice, though. I've killed plenty of people like this at custom battles, but sometimes lady luck becomes a bitch and the SPAA manages to hit that one lucky stray bullet on my fuel tanks. Personally, I'm looking foward to it.

Hey fellow americans, can you point me to nearest base for fuel

Is making rockets spread more than a cartoon shotgun really gaijin's only idea for balancing them?

>>161376670

from what I see from the forums, she seems more consistent than other posters. fact being she is working with gaijooby for japanese tank development, alongside direct file access for classified documents means until we can get another person to cross check her data we don't have much else to go on.

she seems to do revision of her own work, she recently redacted statements regarding japanese orders of german tanks (she said before that they ordered more than a panther and tiger, now she says they only followed up tests on the panther and tiger).

so props to her for revisionism? but being the only source for japanese documentation right from the source is problematic in itself, they should find another historical consultant working in japan preferably (sufficient documentation outside of japan is nearly impossible to find, especially on some of the more obscure vehicles japan developed).

I know, right? I actually regret that I unlocked the A-1 this late! The thing is amazing at everything it does, as long as you are allowed to gain altitude and speed.

Ho229 is a GFRB murder machine, able to take on both tanks and planes {a bit less so lately with the anti-jet SPAAs }
Anyway, it outturns any jet, and out energy-fights any prop.
Also, the Ho rules in EC.

>wallet wyvern makes a beeline to my bomber before I reach the bombing point like I'm not just going to J out when he gets 1km away

>>161380184
As stated before the I-15s the best, Ki-10 hold fucking insane energy, used to be able to climb near straight vertical.
As for the rest I'd say
He51=P-26 M2>Fury>Nimrod>P26(non M2)
He51 is pretty good all around, machineguns are fucking lasers
P-26 performs badly but the gun makes up for it, killing shit quickly. Also really good compliment to American reserve tank battles being able to kill BT-7s/T-26s easily and having and albeit small bombload to take out the rest.
Everything past this is just trash
The Fury is trash but it gets some cool SAF skins
The Nimrods are worse than the Fury somehow
And the P-26s without the M2 perform like absolute liquid ass and can't even kill shit dead reliably. Even the Furys are better

Kurt Tank was flying an unarmed Ta 152H in late 1944 to a meeting at the Focke-Wulf plant in Cottbus when ground controllers warned him of two P-51 Mustangs. The enemy aircraft appeared behind Tank, but he escaped by applying full power and engaging the MW 50 boost "until they were no more than two dots on the horizon".[8]

this always makes me chuckle

they became bodybuilders that contain potentially lethal shrapnel between their overdeveloped glutes instead of fucking dying.

When?

Historically accurate :^)))))

>>161385768

M18 is faster if you are not a shit driver, or your team doesnt ram you into a wall and get mad at you for it.

>>161385875
>tfw I ram hellcats into walls so they miss out on the cap RP

>>161386053

I much prefer pushing them from the side until they spin and I am ramming their tracks, then turning into a wall or other impass forcing them to stop entirely, meaning they cant traverse due to lower RPM.

follow this up by then repositioning blocking the exit so they have to ram into you again.

Is the Jumbo fixed yet?

or is it still just a slow sherman that gets popped by everything?

>>161387461
No, layered armor is still not working properly.

>>161387536
Well.... layerd armour is less effective, but it works fine on russian tanks, the IS-4 should have way less effective armor than it does for example.

Is the B-57 worth grinding for, or should I just bite the pillow and grind the entire navy line?

>>161389650
B-57s are trash. First one has no way to defend itself, getting easily run down even in max downtiers, second one's fight model is 100% fucked and turns empty as well as a max load IL-28 while also getting easily run down. The guns are worse than trash because they're mounted so fucking far from the center.
