Babe wake up, new plane review just dropped.
Hey that’s my line!
I am up I am up
bro shut up haha cringeeee
Furry pfp 😂

If Gaijin ever adds anti-radiation missiles into the game, this would be one of the Chinese aircraft to get them. I'd love to see that some day.
I'm guessing they're gonna add them into the game together with the A-6 SWIP variant for tech tree, that's probably why it took so long to add it into the game because they're waiting for the anti-radiation missiles to be done.
I love the JH-7 from Wargame: Red Dragon so I am super happy to see it added to War Thunder.
Love flying this thing out, it’s like a 4th generation super Jaguar
I was about to ask if it was a coincidence that it looked like the T-2/F-1 and Jaguar and you answered it before I could even ask. Well played, Mr Variety…well played.
"JH-7 is not related to Jaguar or F-1" ikr?!
At this point the only reason people compare this to being a copy is just because its "Chinese", kinda sad.
But that aside i just gotten this jet, its so much fun!
I dont really mind the jets lacking some armament, the fact its here is already really cool, just has to wait a little bit more & in the future it'll get something, patience...
To be fair, China has a long history of copying other nations stuff, it's kind of their thing lol
The history of the aircraft was very interesting to hear about. Great video, man.
I usually listen to your videos at work and chores, relaxing to listen to. As much as I like the regular shitposters and memers, this is way better as I have a interest in military vehicles and I like to collect books about them. Have a nice day!
You can recenter the cockpit view in VR to move the head position. But that does mean the cockpit HUD might end up out of view a bit.
Just as soon as I finished grinding for J-8F, Gaijin decided to drop this into the game...
....[sign] the grind never end.
le sign...
Sure it can
It just involves never playing the game again lol
Waiting for this to get the AGMs it has IRL!
Thanks for another great review
Thanks for the content
Glad I saw this. Getting towards the end of the tech tree and was wondering if grinding out the Q-5's was worth it.
I really like the look of this plane
2:30 *+100 social credit!* 😎 👍
Wish I had the J-7D to make the grind towards this a little easier, but the A-5C + J-7E mod tier bonuses should make a big difference
Thus will be a good video
9:25 I'm not sure this is how it's modelled in-game. As far as I am able to tell, clouds merely block the auto-tracking of the laser designator. The actual laser still seems to "shine through" the clouds, even though you have no clue what it's pointed at.
Either way, great vid as always! Just picked this jet up myself
Hey tim.. could we maybe get a tour of your controlls for WT someday.. im getting into top tier and i need some inspiration for controll placement.
It might not be much help. I change them kindof frequently, I use a lots-of-buttons mouse, and I use an elgato streamdeck as a makeshift MFD type pad for some of my radar/weapon controls.
I kinda like the outline around the plane in the thumbnail. Idk if that's going to be like a new thing you do for future reviews, but it's a nice design element.
I had a bit of a channel audit/review a few months ago, and one of the suggestions was that I try to make the aircraft more "visually distinct from the background" in my video thumbnails, so I'm trying a drop-shadow effect to see how it goes.
@@TimsVariety it's a good balance of contrast without veering into big red arrow territory I think.
Worth noting, this plane will soon get Kh-29's for the next update, so ground pounders will have that to look forward too!
did you add a outline/filter effect to the thumbnails? or has that been there always
looks nice though
Its new. I had a bit of a channel audit/review a few months ago, and one of the suggestions was that I try to make the aircraft more "visually distinct from the background" in my video thumbnails, so I'm trying a drop-shadow effect to see how it goes.
Nice
i love your review videos, even though i don't play warthunger
You'd be surprised how often I hear that. A lot of my audience enjoy the vids just out of general interest, rather than necessarily for game tips.
Should have mentioned that the bigger the bomb load the easier it is for you to immediately die from a random stray round. Because of ordinance can explode on the racks now
Big fan of your videos! The only thing id suggest is when you are talking about max seed, rip speed, etc include mph ( in subtitles or promp, don't actually have to say it) helps the dweebs (me) who use mph.
So if I am about to finish Chinese rank 6 I should prioritise the strike aircraft line?
Wait, my flight performance decreases as I add thousands of pounds of aerodynamically poor weight!? No fuckin way!
it's a pretty plane!
Very sure the JL-10A radar should also have a TWS mode but the snail didn't bother likely cuz the PL-12 isnt in the game yet
Also personally idm the limited PL-8, i love the acceleration of the PL-5 and i jse it for targets reversing in front of me or longer distance targets, and the PL-8 for dogfights
I've found the Pl-5 to be a surprisingly good weapon in practice, it *seems* to outperform its paper stats.
@@TimsVariety definitely, its my favorite IR missile in the game
Great review btw, and that rate speed you mentioned of 540 ish kph is something i managed to find out myself too in som testing, for example it can outrate an F-5 at 550 kph with combat flaps down
Ohh nice . I am early today 😂
When my battle task is getting enemy bases, I need something that is going to get me there first, permit me to drop while supersonic and at least usually get me home. Preferably clearing a whole base in one pass, at a tier where RP contributes to rank VII and VIII research. So far the only thing that does it all, is the F-105D. I tried the purpose built Tornado and found that radar missiles make it both ineffective and suicidal. Soviets are not as fast and Mach limited for dropping bombs. I am interested if anyone has a better aircraft (other than the F-111) for the task.
The Israeli Kurnass(es) might work, as the bombs can be dropped at slightly supersonic speeds (M1.1) and still lets you bring a decent load of missiles to fight with after the bombs are gone… but you might have to ninja around to the bases given you’ll be seeing F-14s, early F-16s and MiG-29s in uptiers…
The Phantoms can bring a lot of dumb bomb weight (enough to pop 2 bases with 5x1000lb bombs each). I have reasonable success base bombing in my 11.0 Kurnass carrying 1000lb bombs on the outer wing pylons (which gives me 10 bombs, enough for 2 bases), which still leaves the inner pylons free for a full missile compliment and the center station for the drop tank. Taking the drop tank let’s me get away with only 20 minutes of internal fuel, so I can be lighter when the tank is empty (around the time the bombs get dropped).
Hi Tim!
👋
10:52 isn't that a known issue, that the camera positions are to low (likw the head is irl higher)
This one is a bit lower than usual, even accounting for the seats feeling a little low in almost everything anyway lol.
😊
Pretty awkward when your Cold War era strike plane isn’t in service until after the USSR stopped existing 😂
Since you didn't seem to have mentioned it or even noticed
But if you decide to go out and bomb bases then the 500Kg parachute bombs are the best options since they have 100kg+ TNT equivalent more then the Standart 500kg bombs
This allows you to use 4 per base and let's you take out two with the 8 max you can carry or only take 4 for one and have some better performance
I noticed that since I play q5l a lot
Xian is pronounced more like Shee-ahn.
I thought xi was pronounced si, or does that depend of other things as well?
@@delfinenteddyson9865 its neither, there is no English equivalent to the sound. But i personally think 'si' is a better substitute.
@@stickmanblubbles4489 cheers!
It looks so much like an f18 from certain angles!
I hope we get the Taiwanese F-CK-1. It looks like an F-16 and F/A-18 had a baby, and is great for "giving a flying fuck" jokes.
Yo it says you have 11K likes despite having only 1,500 views
Its showing me 228 likes on this vid, with about 1800 views, as of posting this comment.
@@TimsVariety Yeah that makes more sense, weird visual error I guess, I took a screenshot so my friends won’t think I’m schizophrenic
I am always impressed by the Chinese aviation industry, even if they are mostly licensed copies and clones.
I really don't think Chinese engineers get enough credit.
The “China only makes copies” thing is only going to get worse if/when they add the J-10, as there’s been a not-insignificant group of comments suggesting that it is a copy of the IAI Lavi prototype.
@@zanaduz2018 A topic I'll absolutely be addressing when we eventually get it, and I publish a review....
Don t worry, they will monetize it. 4 Anti Radar missiles in sale for only 40 bucks lol...
The Pl5 is faster than the python, the stat chart is lying as always (the aim9j is also faster than the Pl5b according the stat chart omegalul)
ty gd to no yh
11.3 same as mig27k, but mig27k doesnt have thermal and only have r60m. Doesnt feel like balanced to me.
you got kh29T which the jh 7 doesn't have
TV guided ordnance
You can easily just fly as a fighter
Bruh ofc China gets another good ass plane gotta keep the lights on for the snail 😂
“Totally independent design” lmao yeah right, who said that? The Chinese govt? lol
