Did you agree with my picks? If not then what should’ve been on there! Comment your worst planes in War Thunder below :)
Hmm, No German or Italian aircraft... I approve
Ultimate decision on worst Lancaster(THE FRENCH ONES)
new f117 lol
@ haha definitely

Lancaster: The destroyer of ground teammates
Pe-8 as well
Think I've only once caught a team mate with a few enemies before, got about 50 kills. I'm careful and not an idiot though
@@markolysynchuk5264 Once saw one kill like 6 team mates and one one enemy lol. Thankfully I was on the other team
@markolysynchuk5264 ehh the PE-8s bomb is smaller, it doesn't vaporize a third the map, it just vaporizes maybe a quarter of it.
The Lincoln can excel at killing ground teammates now too
Always thought it was strange how WT has some high altitude interceptors with terrible climb rates. So bad.
@@willdodge200 exactly
Mig9 be like
@@vokqe Don't even cry about the mig9 considering every Soviet prop is a UFO
And gives some space climbers airspawn like the mfcking xp50
Like what? Just because a fighter gets an air spawn doesn't mean it's a high alt interceptor
The issue with large bombers in WT is that in real life, you’d actually have escorts flying alongside them, but that level of teamwork is a rarity in game
True but on AR, escort fighters can’t catch up from the runway. Bombers are the first to meet the other team, not the case irl
They should really add an Escort fighter class; planes like the F6F5N and other terrible fighters that get a bomber airspawn, 2 in 1 fix
Well, this is partly true.
The RAF for example didn't fly with escorts, they used night to get themselves to their target, and they had quite the range alongside a good speed for a strategic bomber.
Being capable of about 210mph from England to almost anywhere in Germany.
Compared to the B-17 that couldn't make it to Germany from England.
But overall, in WT strategic bombers have the issue of either being over tiered, or just not having the altitude to counter most fighters.
Oh and lets not forget ground attackers that steal bases.
This is why its more enjoyable to fly them in sim.
Real bombers would also have formations of fighters attacking them instead of just a few uncoordinated attackers. I think the bigger problem is that it’s literally impossible to aim the guns effectively, no matter how good you are. Since the guns are all in different locations, they shoot in different directions, so they basically have a convergence point like a fighter. If the attacking fighter is anywhere but the convergence distance, it will be impossible to hit with all the guns, and very difficult to hit with even one gun. It’s like setting your convergence to 300m in a Spitfire and trying to hit someone 600m away. It also doesn’t help that if you want to turn while using the turrets to make yourself a slightly more difficult target, the game fights you the entire time to go back to your previous direction.
Issue with bombers is 0IQ players on them. Otherwise they are more than good
The Beaufighter with different 40mm was an experimental planes. They were testing which 40mm worked better in an airborne frame.
I wish gaijn would at least give the J7W1 an interceptor spawn. It is an interceptor after all
Alright, heres my defense of the F6F-5N. Simulator. The radar alone in its bracket wouldn't be that good if it weren't for the quirky little detail called IFF. Without even seeing the people visually, you can already identify and focus in on enemies and ignore the friendlies. You dont have to ever worry about accidentally chasing down a teammate because the radar will tell you. It also gives you your range to your target which is nice for leading the guns.
I have had some pretty good success with the f6f-5n. I’ve managed to out turn yaks using the combat flaps. For the first couple turns, it is actually decent at fighting and energy fighting is your best friend. The guns slap everything, from bombers to fighters. It’s one of my favorite planes in the game and I’ve had more success with it than any of its predecessors. Get it to high altitude and choose your targets well and everything around you will fall out of the sky. The radar does help when gaijin decides to not show were the enemies are.
Yeah I was reluctant to put it on but as there are just better choices, sadly it made the cut :(
@@thesnazzycometNah, didn’t deserve a spot. You’re just a smelly goober brain.
they really should do something about the durability of bombers. it gets kind of boring seeing them just die instantly to somebody throwing an acorn in their direction
the main thing is that the wings are obviously way to brittle, i mean a 7.7mm should not be able to rip a B-17's wing off... second thing is they should add a new mechanic for bombers where you don't die if you get pilot snipped, you die once the pilot and co-pilot are dead
i also used to think that the french low tier thing was terrible to but that plane is extremely good for one thing, learning to kill planes with single taps of the trigger. once i got used to the gun's ballistics i was able to just snipe people with them by firing like 4-6 rounds into each one of them. the most i got in it was 7 kills on a single ammo load in RB
@@n1co2017 I think that copilot mechanic is in game to be fair. But yes, a new more accurate damage model would be great - especially one with more visual damage because now you hardly see anything
Problem is this is a realistic damage model, sure we could use more visible damage but there's a reason bomber flew in big groups and with defense fighters IRL. They're flimsy, not fast and not durable, the stories you hear about a plane crashing into it and i not dying is litterally a one in a million chance
@@motmot8879 they aren't even close to being this flimsy, some bombers have come back after being rammed by fighters. Their wings don't just fall off like lego.
@@motmot8879 B-17s in the war managed to fly home with holes big enough to drive a Jeep through in both the rear fuselage and wing. The "fragile cookie" nature of War Thunder's bombers where a single pass by a Bf 109 or Fw 190 can kill a bomber is definitely not accurate whatsoever. Typically, it was more likely that a bomber would only go down if the engine caught fire or the pilots were killed.
They USED to be very durable years ago but Fighter players moaned that their machine guns weren't effective at shooting down a B-17. So gaijin being gaijin over corrected severely and just left it at that.
I'd strongly disagree about the Yak-17 as it is one of my favourite jets, despite being rather mediocre. Lancaster and D.371 aren't bad either but that's up to personal preference. Rest of these seem to be correct XD
Well, I suppose I can take *your* word for it. I would rather the normal Yak-15 than the 17. As for the Lancaster its good but not particularly effective at defending itself, and I really was close to putting the G5N1 on the list instead. The D.371 is overall quite lacking in performance aside from the guns, and because of that I would rather more endurance, I much prefer the D.501.
Also side note I have had the privilege of stumbling across a Yak-17UTI when I was in Poland xD
@thesnazzycomet the G5N1 is far worse than Lancaster. The Lanc can comfortably dogfight most planes at its BR and win, while G5N is just too big, too sluggish and too poorly armed
Yak 17 is a downgrade in Air RB, but upgrade in Air SB. It just does everything worse than Yak 15 when it comes to air RB. Slightly.
@@smigoltime Tbf on average i dont think most players uh.. dogfight in a heavy bomber lol. Your a very skibidi specimen that has the ability to
The Lancaster has no advantage over other bombers tho. They’re not even the only one to get the 120000lb bomb
Love how the J7W1 was made as a interceptor and gijen just classes it as a fighter also the ki-200 sucks 8.7 constantly going against 9.7 jets and the guns while used to be good have ben nerfed into the ground
i love the f5f 5n in sim its so much fun there
also the j7w has the he 162 syndrom where in real life it was a amazing at turning but in war thunder yeah they can't idk why but they just don't
oh thats simple.
because it was modeled back in 2014 and hasnt been touched since. so because gaijin was extra shitty with that patch we got an extremely buggy plane, that for some fucking reason, gaijin is allergic at fixing the fucking thing.
its current issues are many, first one is that one of the ailerons, you know the nose-mounted canards, well only one is modeled to work. so you have half of the pull you should, the flaps for some fucking reason auto retract once you past i think 300kph, and for some fucking reason ontop of that, its inverted, so it creates negate lift, it actually pulls your nose downwards and makes it harder to turn.
then you got the engine overheating far faster than it should. and missing like 800hp. ya the thing is a fucking mess, every japan main knows it and its mind boggling why gaijin hasn't touched the thing in a literal decade of time. like its been over 10 years, it was introduced in october 9th of 2014.
@@Thekilleroftanks The flaps problem is actually real. I don't remember the exact reason, but due to a formula used to calculate the lift would normally result negative (so the flaps would make it point down instead of up) but in most planes it actually results in positive (so flaps make the plane point up). Someone made a video about how the war thunder wikipedia is wrong and explained this exact problem
The point of flaps is to increase the maximum lift before the wings stall, not the immediate amount of lift after extending them. Whether the flaps create a positive or negative pitching moment is not that important for their function, since the pilot will adjust the elevator to counter it either way.
Having only one canard functional also wouldn’t decrease turn rate by 1/2. The wing is the limiting factor. Having only one be functional would make it wonky and asymmetric, but as long as you can still stall the wing before stalling the remaining canard, I don’t think it would actually reduce the total lift at all, because the other canard would be creating more lift instead. That’s assuming the one functional canard is modeled to create lift along the centerline so it doesn’t act as an aileron, of course.
In defense of the Frenchie: It can really pound ground targets top-down, and VERY small bursts = very good biplane/early monoplane annihilator. But only for maybe 3 kills max.
Subbed at 3:04
Another very important point about Yak-17 is that it has a HUGE repair cost for a plane from less than 7.0, the price is same as most of 9.0/10.0 aircraft
Not the worst just the hardest to play they require skill, trigger discipline for the ammo count as well as aim and not shooting 800m to a km out, and of course positioning
Definitely, wise words indeed
was surprised the Sakeen didn't make it, but after being reminded F6F-5N and J7W exists, fair point
@@dinosatay I keep forgetting the Sakeen exists 😭
Nah the Sakeen (meaning knife in english) has the unbeatable secret tactic of just cutting your enemies with your wings like a knife, works 100% of the times @@thesnazzycomet
@@thesnazzycomet It's so bad people forget it exists 😂
God I hate the F6F-5N hellcat! I was recommended it when I was fairly new and I didn't know what on earth was going on, it is truly terrible.
So my philosophy for war thunder when I started playing was to spade every plane, until I hit about US Rank 3 and stopped caring about bombers and strike planes.
And then I met the F6F-5N and decided that some fighters just aren't worth the time.
I've definitely improved substantially since that point (
Maybe it’s worth a revisit. Despite what I said you can make it work
I remember the F6F-5N had a lead indicator for the radar if you locked on to an enemy when it first got it. But it’s been a long time since than.
Mostly because that's not an automatic thing. IRL you'd have to punch in the distance and wingspan of the target then sit directly behind it. Hard to translate into the game
J7W1 should be first place god i wish it was good
1:19 sneaky Cobi model, nice
please dont talk about history of a plane if you dont know it. Firebrand was Blackburn's (not Hawker's as you refrenced typhoon) second attmpt at combo of naval strike and torpedo aircrafte (frist being Skua that was utterlu useless) That had mussfortune to be shifted around from engine to engine, from role to role. I would say it's in line with fairy firefly with stronger vertical turn (due to really good flaps. It's definitely one of thoose planes that you need to know your flaps usage to get everything out of it. Think more strike aircraft supercobra instead of worse typhoon. Keep speed high flaps on edge of ripping and you will be fine. Also it's suprisingly good at ground battles as a mop- that is kill as many ground targets as you can and do boom and run's on enemy aircfat all day. It has dreadfull supercharging but shere power of the 50l engine (in comparison jug has 43l) can do a lot.
im aware of who made the Firebrand, I am just saying it resembles a Hawker Tempest
Just want to clear up why Beaufighter Mk I has 2 different 40 mm guns. It was actually test bed to test which 40 mm gun out of those two is better for service with Vickers S winning over Rolls-Royce Type BH and later being used on Hurricane Mk.IV for anti-tank use at north Africa if I remember correctly. It is somewhat usable at GRB but it is overall more of cool from histical view interesting aircraft (or just meme one) then actualy competetive one.
I feel like the Condor is worse for its tier than the Lancaster. At least the Lancaster has decent field of fire with its turrets, unlike the abysmal Condor
Yeah the Condor is probably just worse but I wanted less lower tier ones
I agree for the most part but the D371 is a damn menace in ground RB and the beaufighter can be pretty workable too.
Along with the J7W1, the P-47N has terrible climb and worse performance than other P-47 variants, its only advantage is a higher top speed which was never really a problem with the other P-47 models anyways.
YES The P-47N is also a bit of a struggle and easily the worst one tier for tier, but the J7W1 is way more painful
The P-47N also has much worse gun convergence due to the .50 cals being placed even further out on the wings compared to every other P-47 model.
Just for reference at how bad the J7W1 is, that’s one of the only fighters I feel comfortable turn fighting against in my P-51D-5.
Mustangs are solid
@@thesnazzycometToo solid for being good.
Jum funny that some of those planes are pretty damn good in SB, for example de Hellcat with radar, that is hell of a good thing to have in battle, i seeing people using the J7W1 and they are in another level, for sure if you know that the plane can’t dogfight you’re save making it turn
As much as it pains me to say it, the Seafire FR 47 is a definite contender for the list in my eyes. You take a Spitfire, make it comically heavy, destroying its climbing ability and remove its ability to turn. Oh, also you mess up its flight model and not give it as much HP as it historically had.
I love the plane just for how awesome it looks and how it was technically the pinnacle of the Spitfire in general and its last variant, but it's so atrocious to play. The only redeeming factor is that it's kinda fast if you use WEP, but the engine overheats very quickly, requiring a lot of WEP discipline.
@@leman8626 yeah that things a bit of a drag. I wouldn’t call it bad but all other 5.7 spitfires are superior
Is yours spaded? Mine was miserable to play until I got the 150 octane fuel, then It became pretty viable
D.371 H.S.9 is not bad, I've grinded the early French tech tree with this and it does the job well, you're in a BR where you face the weakest planes war thunder has to offer, reserves, with their slow speed and fragile structure, and you fight against less than competent pilots who don't understand how complicated air battles are, new players, you only need 5-10 shots to kill your average reserve player, and even if you're uptiered, the pilots aren't much better, because they don't understand the difference between "turn fighters" and "boom and zooms" (The HS9 is a great turn fighter btw cuz its based on a reserve plane), so you'll be running circles around much more sluggish aircraft compared to the HS9 like 109s. But if the opponent is competent, you should be facing against planes with 7.7mm (not including the italians I don't know how they get away with two 12.7mm for reserve) so you may receive a light peppering.
While 60 rounds does make you conserve till you go utterly insane, there are airbases, I wouldn't recommend travelling across the entire map, or making long range shots with such limited ammo, but its still a great scramble fighter thanks to its climb rate and decent acceleration if you touch and go on airbases (just max out reload speed in crew skills because you're not wasting your points on G tolerance or repair rank for whats essentially an upgunned reserve plane).
TLDR: HS9 is a good plane because your opponents are easy competition. 60 cannon rounds is plenty for 1.3
Oh please do top 5 best WWII bombers!
In game or in WW2 irl?
@@thesnazzycomet In game please
@@thesnazzycomet The G8N1 gotta be one of the best, the bombs suck but you can actually use it as a fighter against the less skilled players
@@GameyDave interesting. I could try...
@@walliwabbel You CAN but it cant take a hit to save its life, and it flies like a boat
if anyone wonder why beufighter had 2 different 40 mm , is because they tested two different models to see which is better on the aircraft.
Also yak 17 is not made of wood. There was no deficiency of alliuminium production in late stage of ww2 and after it
Disagree with the large bomber statement. From experience with the G8N1 and lincoln along with the halifax and sunderland, they had a lot more fun in them than the B17 and, to some extent, the Me 264 and PE8
Especially the G8N1 and Lincoln since not only are they agile, but they at least get decent 20mms as a defense, which makes it easier to deal with planes tanky(G8N1 more tanky) although the bomb load for the Japanese bomber is not as good
I played the Firebrand and my first impression was it's okay, not great but fine. The only good thing was the 4 Hispano cannons with a fair amount of shells. Then I got the Firefly FR MK5 which is currently my favourite plane in game. Still think the Firebrand is okay but not great.
Lancaster has the radar bulge but gaijin refuses to give it radar.
Idea: List down the worst planes in each tier.
@@HanzFrostedZeEngines maybe maybe
@@thesnazzycomet top five top five lists.
@@rjoyce hahaha
planes like the firebrand are why i hate the state of BR placements of planes/tanks in this game.
there's no way it deserved to start life in the game at the 5.0 bracket and the same goes for the R3 starting at 3.3
Shinden should turn like a beast, just by looking at it, its a ww2 delta cannard
The J7W did help take out Godzilla in Godzilla Minus one so it can't be bad
The F6F5-N is great in sim, the radar is a big advantage and helps you ID enemies and friends from a long distance.
The J7W1 is also extremely good in sim, insane climb rate and speed, in most situations youre always faster then the enemy.
I recommend the J7W1 for any sim enthusiasts, you wont refret it.
I will never forgive this Yak-15/17 slander. :(
Ahaha, sorry its kind of what I'm known for
@@thesnazzycomet Late to the party and just found your channel, love the videos. I subscribed, but I'm going to need a ukelele apology video for the Yak-15/17.
My recomendation for Lancaster:
-Keep your bombload light (even lightest load can kill one base)
-keep yourself fast (you are no ju288 but fast enough to get in on slight descend, turn around and get yourself on the edge of never exceed-speed returing while tratind your alt when approprate)
-dont change targets after you commit
even tho I am kinda a wheeraboo, but i think the Henikel H-111 could get at least an honorable mention.
Little fun fact: it could also launch V-1 Rockets mid air
Kinda niche, but I find the f6f 5n and other night fighters amazing at destroying enemy planes in low clouds in sim mode. Many bombers think they are invisible in them, but radar and a heck ton of cannons make short work of them.
the D.371 H.S.9 is a beast in ground with the AP belts
@@WPope there are so many better choices though
I absolutely love the HS9 it absolutely slaps with those 20mms, trigger discipline through the roof, I’ve personally dropped multiple aces easily with it
I’m suprised that you didn’t say the P.108B wasn’t gonna be the worst, cause people just hate on Italy sometimes
Trust me it definitely would’ve made it but it’s now rank I so it doesn’t count, and I’ve done a video dedicated to it before
Me262
Heavy
Slow
Poor acceleration
Slow guns
Can’t turn or climb
Too high of a br to actually be effective
Gets torn apart by Cold War jets that are faster than your guns velocity
@@TinyBearTim very nearly made the cut!
well, its my favorite :D it is kinda agile and JABO version gets airspawn
I don’t think its br is too high. There’s just too much compression rn with the sabres and migs at 8.0.
War thunder if they had any part in minus one-"nah, make the plane turn as slow as a bomber, speed of a bi-plane and make it a sitting duck"
Now, I'll genuenly cry. Not only I could not download the new update because I was sabotaged by my blood but now as a newer update came to the game, the whole 17(+12) hours have reset. The universe doesn't like me today😭
@@LastGoatKnight oh dear!
I got an ace in the F6F-5N very fun good guns, lots of hp, useless radar. Perfect boom and zoomer. Corsairs are better.
Hey there, really love your videos! And by the way why don't you play toptier? (not that i like it)
@@ShahafHarari I have a full video explaining it but long story short I don’t think War Thunder is ready for that sort of technology with its current gameplay/game modes
5:34 It used to have a lead indicator, but then Gaijin responded to vowel man's report by being Gaijin.
Yeah the Blackburn Firebrand is a bad aircraft but that is more down to the factors that conspired against it
J7 part made me sad a little. Yes it’s a lump of lard but it’s my lump that I use to head on everything
I love the French DH9 - it's so bad I fly it low tier as practice and a challenge. It's an solid turn fighter and you have to close right in on the enemy.
D.371 is amazing for ground pound. Low level tanks don’t like 20mm through the roof
Being this early is criminal. I love the ranking though, totally agree
@@superjp2091 glad!
Firebrand is decent, it’s mid but not the worst strike plane at 3.7, killed a few tanks at 6.7 with it so, it can fight but not the best.
Last night tried the new air mode, random select unfortunately, only bombers. God it was beautiful, no fighters, no intercepters, just bombers enjoying the moment.
I randomly got the H.S.9 from a crate during the 10th anniversary crates, it's really only good in arcade 💀
To be fair, mate, the Lancaster wasn’t great IRL. The only reason Harris insisted on it was that it could drop an HC 8,000lb on Berlin. You know, a target that was not really that important anyway.
@@AG9229 I wouldn’t say it wasn’t great irl. It was designed to carry maximum payload and fight at night - it could and did. For its intended role it was fine just not in War Thunder
Man, I have aced crew on Yak-17, it is a good plane, just leave throttle on 98% and it never overheats)
11:38 you could get in an event sometime ago, don't remember the name but there were a bunch of old event vehicles that you could get in some boxes
No rank 8 plane is bad enough to be in a worst list. If we added rank 7 though I wonder what we could come up with. First three that came to my mind are all Phantoms which is my favourite jet irl :/
-F4F of Germany at 11,0(!) which is a phantom with no radar missiles but just 4 rear aspect 20G missiles; A PHANTOM WITH NO RADAR MISSLES FFS
-F4C which must carry a gun pod and doesn't have flares yet goes against all kinds of all aspect 30Gs
and finally
-F4EJ at 11,0 with it's useless radar that won't lock ANYTHING and the worst part is you've to suffer in this plane because it's literally the only rank 7 Japanese plane on the basic tech tree so your only two alternatives are waiting months for squadron F5 or feeding Gaijin by buying the premium F4
The F-4C is definitely the worst higher tier jet by far.
I will NOT tolerate night hellcat slander, this thing is insane in sim
I had no idea that people outside of India knew what a Papadam is, subbed.
mb162 actually has really good climb rate and its a solid bomber
I just looked at this today, so I'm not sure how long this change has been in place, but when did they up the requirements for earning camo patterns?
A while ago I think, to which camo are you referring?
I'm rather surprised you haven't mentioned the F4U-1c, the only good thing are the 4x AN/M2 cannons but you still have the 2.7 airframe/engine from the F4U-1a at 4.7. And for my Worst pick the Yak-9p, after playing the very good Yak-3 and the 3p, I got the Yak-9p and it just feels worse than the earlier yaks, you don't turn as well nor are you speedy either. I tried to make it work, but it just frustrates me.
Missed the sakeen ur a 109 without any of the benifits of a 109 all cuz u have a bombers engine, ur slow turn like a brick, cant climb well only good think about it is it trades its wing mounted mgs for 20mm cannons thats it
That thing is a suffer bus.
But good memories in the Lancaster
I'm more surprised you know papadom than the fact that you compared it to the Lancaster.
The Shinden is easily one of my best performing planes. I've never found another Japanese aircraft of comparable BR that I actually like
The Hellcat I believe is horribly modeled in game. It flys like a brick. I love my brick. But from historical accounts, user manuals, it just doesn’t handle how it should.
It had a huge wing area for a fighter
@ yes you are correct, to help with lift. The climb rate is the only thing that I think should be improved in game by at least 1-2m/s.
@FetaCheese717 was more about having goof low speed handling on carrier approaches
Hear me out the fire brand is decent just because it is good at climbing it has combat flaps and decently speedy also it really good at boom and zoom also you can beat 190s with flaps I know it isn't much it's on this list for a reason
I have had one of my best games ever with my D.371 H.S.9 … But I had to land and reload 3 times 😂. That plane slaps SO hard in that BR. But yeah you get next to nothing for ammunition.
love your video
spaded the firebrand while going down the uk tech tree and oh my fucking god. it is THE brick of all brick planes. its awful, BUT can be fun
Stick to the Firefly!!
@@thesnazzycomet im yet to play it but i will do. currently being the most annoying person on my team in my spitfire mk 24
@ very nice
Yeah I take issue with you criticising the Avro Lancaster not having a ball turret which was not put on because when you do night time bombing raids, the ball turret is effectively useless when you were flying at night over cities under wartime blackout meaning the the gunner would have very little chance of seeing a fighter approaching from below at night, until it opened fire.
Also the Lancaster was built with electronic warfare technology instead being weighted down by a ridiculous number of guns that a B-17 carried
LordHardThrasher did a video about why the B-17 was so bad.
You will find that a Lancaster is arguably a better heavy bomber than the Flying Fortress
You made poopydude cry.Great,keep up the good work.
My pick is Seafire FR.47
That thing is slow, fly like a brick, has quite low ammo count and the stock grind is horrendous 😂
also J7W combat flaps push your nose down instead of up, or it used to be the case a while ago
I won't lie, compared to other aircraft at its tier, a heavy bomber without at least 10mm turrets you will get lucky if you kill a plane with them.
I honestly think that the HS-123 A-1 (the ones in the Chinese and German tech trees) are honestly horrible. Sure they might have a good bombload but they have a horrible speed and energy retention will also being hard to aim its guns...
ive managed 11 kills on the D.371 H.S.9, its a cuk plane and its and to use but if you can land your shots it can be a one hit wonder
surprised you didnt put the Yer-2: M105, it has only 3 7.62 mgs IN TOTAL and pretty bad speed and climbrate
The only planes on this list that I would agree with being on this list are the firebrand, J7W and the F6FN but they do have their strengths in firepower at least. The frenchie reserve imo isn't that bad, I'd rather have it over the He-51 personally, and the lancaster while vulnerable, is still a pretty tanky aircraft and does carry a big mofo bomb.
There are plenty other terrible aircraft out there, like there's a twin engine heavy fighter armed with like 2x 7mm and 2x 12mm macihneguns but it has like 400hp per engine and so not only is it a brick, its slow, has terrible climb rate and terrible weapons.
There's also a twin engined ~800hp heavy fighter in the brittish tree with 4x60 20mm cannons sitting at an abnormally high BR of 4.7 and is super slow, but manouvres well.
The french have the massively nerfed MB 157 which used to be equivalent to a BR 5.0 aircraft in flight performance but is 3.3 because of the armament, but the prop efficiency nerf means it is now literally worth BR 2.7 at best.
If you wanted a bomber, well there are terrible italian and japanese bombers that unlike the lancaster has a terrible payload, and even worse armements with terrible turret aiming synchrony so they always shoot slightly off. The upside is that they are a little faster, which I guess can be a big thing in RB but if you take the ki-67 for example, its at a BR where it faces superprops as a 5.3 while carrying a single 800kg bomb but has the speed of a fast BR 1.3 aircraft
As for jets, well the base hawker hunter as a 9.0 is something that I don't understand after literally every korean war jet got moved down. La-200 is comically bad stock too, I've seen someone attempt to intercept a straight slow flying F-4E phantom from rear aspect at such a close range you could fit another 4 more La-200s between it and the phantom, and you guessed it - he emptied his entire magazine in short bursts and the bullets all went around it. La-200 is a one trick pony, that often fails if you don't get that gun upgrade and is an utter whale even upgraded with terrible cockpit visibility for targetting anything that is manouvring.
Worst cockpits in the game imo has to be the premium Do-335 and the Yak-23. Yak-23 isn't actually that bad if you have VR but is utterly atrocious for anyone playing flatscreen, but both aircraft sahre in common that their "visible" windscreen is only two gunsights wide and one gunsight high.
16:15 actual worst plane spotted. But I did watch the end of the video where you explain why it’s not there 😉
You could probably make an entire list just out of the FW 190s
B-29 is a much better pick than Lancaster. For a 7.0 it has weak turrets (only Brownings with low damage and low rotation speed) and no speed, so it can only be played defensively.
The b29 is my favorite RP piñata
F-117 should go on the next list
Stealth aircraft with light bombload at a teir with almost no radars and only 1 non-us fox 3
I'm sad that the shinden sucks so much. I loved it in Godzilla Minus One... Also why didn't Gaijin add the jet version of the Shinden that was planned??? The Shinden itself had two prototypes only and it was still added, so why not also add the jet version????
@@Springy05 it was such a cool addition in that movie
That firebrand section reminds me of squire
Ive never immediately regretted a purchase more than the f86k
Honestly what the hell
J7W1... nahh buddy no... no way...
Edit: YAK-17?!?!?!?!?!!? YAK-15 BAD????!?! UNDERPOWERED ENGIE???? DUDE PLAY THESE VEHICLES FOR LIKE 50 MATCHES FIRST!
I have tried, the Yak-17 is just bad. The J7W1's only redeeming feature are the guns and they exist on other Japanese planes anyway
What’s good about the J7W1 aside from the guns(which I heard were nerfed recently)?
Oh hels no, you did NOT just call the Yak-15P one of the worst planes.
I ace nearly every game I play in it without reloading.
Extremely fast turn, great retention, gains speed quickly, and an absolutely devastatingly powerful gun. You can take out aything short of a bomber in just a couple shots, and it's at a perfect BR to almost never fight other jets so you outrun anything you will fight 99% of the time.
This is one of the rare cases where I legitimately need to say 1000% skill issue. Once you learn to aim it's ridiculously powerful.
Seriously, I cannot recommend enough to learn how to aim its gun. Easily one of the most fun fighters in the entire game that can be flown in any way you want.
Lanc is funny for cas tho i had a game where i got like 8-11 kills in 2 fly outs.
For once ye made some sense. But I'll have to contradict ye.
The Firebrand is actually better than the firefly V. Faster and surprisingly more agile. The size is of course a downside. But its actually capable.
The J7W I sorta agree and disagree with. Tho the playstyle is all about speed. Never let it drop. It's climbrate is shoddy so hehe best way is to sideclimb a bit then enter with speed. But again, speed is life. Sure top speed is rarely achieved but the point is energy management.
The rest are... Well nothing I can't disagree with. Apart from the D.371 which actually is good. Better in an uptier
