Thanks for the good vid as always :) I took a quick look and I couldn't seem to find a video on the T54E1 US medium not sure if it's something you would consider featuring, I'm curious as to what others think about it too
imo it used to be good but with nerfed AP penetration and all the BR changes over the years, it's not really something to pay for. The 5 second reload is nice but that's about it really, 105mm M68 on the M60 already out-reloads everything but other L7's and autoloaders. I'd rather use the M60A1 AOS for the stabilizer, better APDS and slightly better armor for downtiers.
@@bighobo7745 Yeah I think its rather move it down tier, give it some more tools to be more competitive at its br, or for example which I think even Odd has mentioned is up the br of the t55am
@@JonR536 Would be fine at 7.7 as it is but I would rather see fixed APBC (many US tanks affected, probably never happening) and improved rate of fire. It was capable of up to 35rpm for the 9 shots (1.8s reload) but that would be ridiculously strong so for balance something like 15rpm for 4 sec reload is OK at 8.0.
I love how when I get A-10 in the test drive (I don't have it and I'm nowhere near that BR) I can't even figure out how to shot those missiles, I put seeker on but it doesn't lock on anything, only air-to-air works for me lol
ua-cam.com/video/zCRVfCNpCYQ/v-deo.html is a great tutorial on how to use TV or IR guided bombs and ATGMs. Do note that the bomb has to be on a path to fall near your target, and the missile needs to be in range to hit; being higher up should help with missile range a decent amount.
The premium A-10 is just straight up pay to win at this point lmao. 9.7, can see 8.7 downtiers, fucking insane. New armament presets just set it in stone with the insane ordinance you can set up on it. Meanwhile the best thing you can get on the Late is mavs and some 2000lb bombs, crazy.
Yeah, the Late version doesn't have GBUs or the Gunpods (But has better AGMs) - Kinda mad about that. Also, hears to hoping that the rest of the pylons get more diverse options - I really wanna bring as many 500lb bombs as possible to mess around with in Custom battles.
I dont get it, my A-7D is limited to 4 Mavericks and 2x bombs along with 2 AIM-9Js at 10.3. Meanwhile this sing sits at 9.7 with better missiles, better loadout options and only marginally slower aircraft. A-7D should be 10.0, and the A-7E 10.3, they dont have speed unlike the MiG-27K, so why they still that high is beyond me.
Is there a way for you to share your keybinds? I really would like to know how you have your setup. Being able to control the plane while freelooking and still being able to do other things is a big part of what Im missing in my game I think
I never knew the scoreboard shows what weaponry an aircraft is carrying. Noticed in the first A-10 clip when Odd pulled up the scoreboard it had a bomb and missile icon next to the vehicle icon.
now that im studying at home with covid I get to catch these at mid day my time - great vid as always - have you ever thought doing about a fail/rage compilation :D
I find that being RIGHT above the enemy spawn at about 5km in this makes me pretty much invincible since SAM's typically stay in their spawn and can't elevate straight up all the way. You then dive on them and then go back up to 5km after you fire one of your 6 mavericks, rinse and repeat!
I'm pretty sure the Wiesel was in the same squad as me. I can't speak for him but I don't mind helping you make content by getting blasted by you. You've helped me by setting the squads up. ;-) He's better than me anyway so I probably don't merit being shot. :-D
Silly question Odd, how do you get the air to ground lock to stay on when searching for the lock, mine flashes and just goes bye-bye unless I'm like right on the target
@@jhorn64 I can help with those :) Rangefinding: Settings -> Controls -> Ground Vehicles -> Miscellaneous -> Rangefinder (should be 5th up from the bottom) and the range setting is the same as above except its the bottom one "Sight Distance Control"
I honestly don't know where the idea that the Stuka was intended as a CAS plane comes from. All the strategic documentation and doctrine around them gave them exactly the same role as other small, mid-range bombers in the Luftwaffe. The only difference in their mission targets was when something smaller like a bridge needed to go it was usually Stukas that got the job since they could more accurately hit the relatively smaller target.
@FirestormMk3 Smaller targets would include armoured columns, bunkers, gun emplacements, and the like. Very similar to what modern CAS aircraft would usually engage with larger munitions.
For all the people saying cas isn t a problem : there you have it, amx30dca and guepard with 3-4km range ( if you re lucky, honestly shooting a plane more then 2km away is more luck than anyting) agaisnt plane with fireandforget agm at 6km range. . . We need sam ia that shoot at anything above tree top level to force aircraft to not stay far above the batelfield and ruined it. That would also prevent airfield copter camping.
Oooh all gatling gun loadout now that would be mean every hard point with extra gatling pods must get the a10, so I can just do an all gatling custom loadout
For far too long, I've had to make due with the AH-64A not getting Stinger missiles with the 8x Hellfire + 38x Hydra rockets Hopefully when they add this feature to helis next year I'll be able to fulfill my dream
