  • In today's WAR THUNDER video, we take out the GOAT. The greatest fighting vehicle the world has ever seen: The Bradley! I might be a bit biased as I did serve on the Bradley during my service in the Army. It is a vehicle that will always have a special place in my heart!

    Great video. When I was in the MC, they loaded us on a C-130 that landed on a dry lake bed at Hood at night. We went through a familiarization week on 113s and M901 ITV vehicles. It was great fun firing the TOWs at night with NVD, even though they were the MILES versions and not the real thing.

Funny how Gaijin nerfs the M3A3 TOW-2B (Not the Sweedish though 🙄) and brings it to 10.0, then NERFS IT AGAIN! People said the top attack was "TOO OP". Now that we have PARS Missles with top attack, everyone forgot about the TOW-2B. (Also, I wish Gaijin would add the LAV-25A1. Probably wont since its the same Bushmaster as the M3A3.

    Got nothing but respect for the Bradley both in WT and IRL. IFV's are absolutely terrifying when used properly. Especially if said IFV happens to have good coms, optics, mobility, and weaponry. While Bradley may be getting old and in need of replacement, Ukraine has given her a chance to go down swinging.

      @@RoneK_Actual It would certainly be interesting to see how TOW fares against more modern APS. Especially hard-kill APS's. If they can intercept TOW, perhaps not other ATGM's like Javelin (angle of attack). Either way, most of Russia's stuff they're deploying now is a couple generations behind their latest stuff as far as the tech inside them goes. TOW-2A should tear 90% of armor you see in Ukraine in half.

Other tips: when u use ess (the engine smoke) u can see through it via thermals. Also be sure to use your scout drone more. One fianal tip, when you revers using the bradlies, you can travel at 14 k/m and still keep ur launcher up (helps for urban envorments).

    The shooting over ridgelines is a tactic I think most people are too stupid to use. People complain about Russia at top tier but I think the problem is that people don't use NATO vehicles to their full potential. Russian gameplay style is good at the lowest common denominator press W, but if people knew how to go hull down and use that turret depression I think the win rates would be a bit more balanced.

    • @RoneK_Actual
      @RoneK_Actual  Рік тому

      I think there is a large portion of the playerbase that just wants W key and click gameplay and they don't get that, they cry. Using the CIV to loop tows over ridges is easy and not too hard to learn if players would just try.

      No it shouldn't have. It also shouldn't be as dog shit as portrayed. I mean if the gunner doesn't have to stand up out of the turret to fire the atgm from the bmp1/2 why should you have to deploy your tow launcher? Also the tow2b does not perform correctly

    • @RoneK_Actual
      @RoneK_Actual  Рік тому

      The tow launcher in game actually raises about 5-10 seconds faster than it does in real life. And it raises while you are moving which is also incorrect. But if the vehicle was completely realistic, I am sure so many people would moan. I don't think it is too bad at 9.7 honestly, if you play it like is was designed then it really isn't a big deal. I just get droned more often then not.

    • @casematecardinal
      @casematecardinal Рік тому

      @@RoneK_Actual if you play it like designed you will lose every match. More so than America does at these br brackets. My whole point is that the tow launchers should just be deployed the same way a bmp2 is with its atgm able to be fired without the gunner scrambling out of the hatch first. I dont care about historical accuracy. I care about game balance and the sedentary gameplay of a Bradley is its downfall more often than not. And since drones and su25s were added its become magnified. Beinf able to shoot and scoot would infinity improve the effectiveness of the Bradley and make it in line with the main competitors. You're still the slowest, tallest, and have the least potent cannon but you have the commander sight that gives you a unique advantage. The same should go for the bill which would make its higher br placement less annoying though it still out classes the dardo and Bradley.
