Ahhh take me back to the good old days where the only thing I had to worry about was a CL-13 energy trapping my Vampire... What's your favourite OG jet fighter? Join my Discord community: discord.gg/TqrH5FSK5X
WeBe, regarding your comment about where the muzzles on the Meteor's 20mm are vis a vis the barrel ends---have you heard of something called a *blast tube?* It's most often used with motorcannon, as their barrels are quite frequently not long enough to reach through the engine and out the spinner. A blast tube is simply a smoothbore section of pipe slightly larger in diameter than the gun, and it provides a pathway for the bullets/shells to exit the body of the plane, while providing protection from effects of muzzle blast and hot gun gasses.
I remember when the Sabre F-2 and MiG-17 were the top dogs of the game when I first started playing. The debates between US and USSR mains over what was better were intense.
Sabre F-2 vs Mig-15 bis was the meta I remember. Sabers had the edge in furballs due to the easier guns but in 1v1s the migs would always win unless the sabres managed to run away. The Mig-17 evened things out and it was perfectly balanced until the Hunter arrived
I love the Meteors, they're just such cool planes and a blast of a nostalgia. Gotta love having those quad 20mm's in the nose, it's still my favourite weapons combo when they work. I could never really get used to having the 50cals in the US Jets after playing this one for a while, especially on the P80 with the slower M2s. 6:20 was an absolutely filthy shot lol
@@WeBeStronk Yea I remember the struggle of the first F86A-5, especially with the damn stock belts not doing anything. I managed to unlock it around the time the Hunter F1 was added so that was a fun grinding experience with constant uptiers lol I did enjoy them more than the stock Migs though, having such limited 23mm ammo and the 37mm which liked to go off in random directions was something that really took getting used to. Once you got those upgraded Cannons though then it was like a completely different plane. The stock Kikka was also something else, it's one of the few planes I full on gave up trying to grind, ended up sticking to the higher Tier Jap props before I stopped playing entirely.
@@WeBeStronk tbh any bad player can do good in it 🤣with the insane ion engine making crazy energy retention you can just point your nose basically anywhere in a dogfight
You’ve got to try the P-39N-0 in one of your next videos. It’s a bit of a beast at 2.7. Cannon is insane, MGs are good, climbs like crazy, and the turn time isn’t awful. I’ve had a lot of success with it. It also gets unguided rockets
@@WeBeStronk before the gun change the first one you had to research to progress was busted before the gun change that happened to it and the p-400 god I miss the 4 12.7s and 1 20mm on the p-400
As an america i do have a soft spot for brittish fighters. From spitfires, and typhoons to vampires, and meteors. My playstyle cosists of using menuverable energy fighters like yaks and typhoons

Loved the video! I noticed you said you were late into the battle, you can turn off "join in progress" in the general settings! Honestly life changing

Really underrated plane,great vid as always keep up the good work!
I've learnt my lesson from having head ons with this plane...
It's so goood!!!
@WeBeStronk I'm liking the french planes atm. The M.D 450 B at 7.7 is rlly good. Then there is the other one at 8.0
@@WeBeStronkI killed one in a A-36 head on
6:15 lovely shot there. You love to see that 😍🔥
Was a nutty deflection shot
Hey WeBe! You should try the I-185 in the Soviet tree (4.0) it’s an absolute menace with its 3x 20mm sVaks and it’s so maneuverable. Anyways nice vid!
The entire I- line is menacing
@@bigbalticbox so true

Same here, back in OG top Tier that was my biggest gripe with the sabers was the lack of heavy firepower until the F2 finally got introduced

Just a tip, in settings, you can turn off joining games in the middle of a match. Matchmaking takes longer but you never join matches late
Has it really been 8 years😳
Babe wake up Webe just uploaded
The awakening
Climbing at takeoff? In early jets? *me and the other Air RB guys raising our eyebrows*
WeBe is my McDonald’s: I’m loving it
He arised
Return of the king
cool video, my first time here.
the 4 nose mounted hispanos hit really hard.
did they change matchmaker? because you said old top tier is back.
I think there was a hard cap put in for some aircraft, I know the MiG15 and Saber got lowered recently
Thought this was going to be a vid on the sea-jesus. This meteor is cool too tho
Sea Jesus isn't what it once was :(
some F89 SCORPIONS have 4 20 mm guns
20mm Hispano's hit hard when they behave.
They slap, when they don't spark
Honestly this plane scares me. And i play the french mystere IIC at this tier with the DEFAS.
I feel like people really underestimate it.
Can you do a swift f.7 video pls?
we luv to see it 💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cw 21 youll be a ufo!
ty
WeBe im creating a youtube WT channel soon.. any recommendations? advice? also is it possible to Squad up to make a video together?
You should play the f-8u2 or the f-8e do the American one
hy Webe just want to know wich sound mod are you using and how to install him
Sound mod is in the description :)
@@WeBeStronk ok thanks i didn't see
just got my 2nd american jet recently
Nice, which one?
@@WeBeStronk F-80
Why do you sound like stampylongnose
DO NOT feel bad for the 163B, I love playing it and Trust me,, It is a beast in a smol form.
I feel like 163 players are good out of sheer spite
@@WeBeStronk I think once you find out how to aim the MK 108s the 163 becomes a force to not mess around with honestly, and yes I agree with you 100%.

I have had a fly with it recently and it is very, very good. I'll admit that at the battlerating it's hard to choose it over the F4U though.

wait guys the map is literally Hong Kong
My favorite low tier Jet!
The fact you call it low-tier depresses me 😂
Here from your recent AVRE video with Fly Daily, and Im here to stay
Glad you're here!
@@WeBeStronk So am I, you make my day
please play the yak3p its just filthy
As an america i do have a soft spot for brittish fighters. From spitfires, and typhoons to vampires, and meteors. My playstyle cosists of using menuverable energy fighters like yaks and typhoons
They're really pretty aircraft
I like the meteor f8 but meteor f4 much better in my opinion
F4 LW used to be pre-nerf with it's wings ripping off. Now there's not much point in choosing it over the F8 in my eyes.
Bruh its getting nerfed next update…….
The 20mm are having a massive overhaul, a loss in accuracy, damage and heating up resistance.
