    The "REDUCE SPEED" indicator is a lie. You can actually reach a much higher speed before your plane starts disintegrating. You'll know that you're close to breaking point when your plane starts making weird noises and your speed indicator turns red. Ignore the "REDUCE SPEED" indicator.

    The only problem with climbing away currently at top tier jets is there is a good chance your entire team collapsed during it. Winning or losing at the moment can often have only 2 losses for the winning team. It is an extreme snowball effect.

    The Lightening was brilliant for what it was designed for, outer UK radar spots Russian nuclear bombers at very high altitude, the plane could take off and climb to intercept before bomber could drop payload anywhere on the UK...…………...It was never really designed to do anything else hence the low amount of ordnance, it had one job, destroy high altitude Bear bombers.
    Which is why I thought it was very weird it was going to be added to WH as it doesn't fit in with how people play the game.
    Ex Armourer, RAF Leuchars oh and it was a bloody nightmare to work on and maintain the dam thing was also toxic in every possible way even worse than Soviet aircraft of the era and they really didn't care about their ground crews LOL.

    The difference in after burner length is actually due to engine placement, the top engine is placed further forward in the fuselage than the bottom engine, so more of the burner trail is hidden in the aircraft. I believe this was to help balance the centre of mass.

  • @R4V3-0N
    @R4V3-0N 4 роки тому +14

    Reason why it was so over-talked is for 3 main reasons bellow:
    1. It was the vehicle people asked for to be Britains rival to the Super Sabre and MiG-19 and what ever other vehicle that may be added around it. It is a '50s plane after all. So it would've fit well then/ at those BR's.
    2. Gaijin did confirm it'll be released but it is "too good" for the current top tier; which a reminder is F-4C Phantoms and MiG-21's. This strikes me as odd as the phantom replaced the lightning but I digress.
    3. People misquoting a pilots letter about the Lightning being "better than an F-15'. It was more enjoyable to fly- not superior in performance.
    Overall. We have the 3 horsemen that slapped us when this thing got added and like I said on the Phantoms dev blog that now only the Lightning F.7 or Sea Lightning (both never built) can be the only ones to compete.

    The reason why the Lighting sucks in Wt is the same reasons why RB EC failed, people are just not patient enough to play it properly
    are you seriously surprised that a plane made to intercept and engage at high altitudes sucks at low altitudes?
    you can say that it still sucks on high altitude combat, and yeah of course, if most rb maps it fights are the size of a peanut, you just simply don't have the space to engage the enemy and disengage using your Superior speed and acceleration to lose the foe and relocate to re engage, an EC map or even maybe the british channel map wouldn't be big enough for these Craft and given how fast they can fly
    forget hyping planes like the Tomcat or any Future high altitude interceptor in this game, because the only planes that will always fit the meta are the ones that are decent enough at low altitude battles as the playerbase push for shorter and faster matches

    The Lightning was the only plane able to catch the U-2 Spyplane. So it climbes like hell. This is a citation from Wikipedia:
    In 1984, during a NATO exercise, Flt Lt Mike Hale intercepted a U-2 at a height which they had previously considered safe (thought to be 66,000 feet (20,000 m)). Records show that Hale also climbed to 88,000 ft (27,000 m) in his Lightning F.3 XR749. This was not sustained level flight but a ballistic climb, in which the pilot takes the aircraft to top speed and then puts the aircraft into a climb, exchanging speed for altitude. Hale also participated in time-to-height and acceleration trials against Lockheed F-104 Starfighters from Aalborg. He reports that the Lightnings won all races easily with the exception of the low-level supersonic acceleration, which was a "dead heat".[78] Lightning pilot and Chief Ex.

      Stick to mouse aim in arcade or realistic. But use it only in sim battles. Its hard especially on propeller.
      Tips
      -increase your throttle gently
      -keep in mind you aircraft characteristics (tendency to roll, pitch etc)
      -do not engage full throttle immediately, increase it gradually
      -do not panic and take it easy when using the flight stick, smoothly move the stick,even small adjustments matter
      -do not turn too hard. (When turing do not pull your nose to far it will stall your aircraft. Due to the extreme angle of attack)
      -Feel your aircraft
      -attack from above
      Just practice you will feel the aircraft eventually, when i use the flightstick for the first time i cant control my aircraft.
