That last moment of you shooting the guy that strafed you, absolutely dunking on him and then immediately getting shot from behind had me in stitches. To be fair, I just made it to the Hellcat and I feel that pain of every plane and artillery being an ever present threat to my existence.
Essentially, you can pay to take an SU-76M (which is based on the T-70 chassis) to a higher BR with an ok gun. So you have a good gun, but all the downsides in survivability and mobility of the SU-76 chassis. You can probably tell why the soviets didn't accept it into service.
@@cheyannei5983 They were also used for anti-tank work and even as light assault guns; the soviets apparently replaced their light tanks with the SU-76M for infantry support when they gave up on the idea of a light tank in favor of more T-34s and this, which was light enough to go places the T-34s couldn't. Also probably helped that they could just convert their T-70s into these. They had made a lot of T-70s (some 8000 of them) just to realize that they weren't really all that useful after 1942. Armored cars were better for recon, the 45mm just wasn't all that useful for fire support, and if they really needed scout tanks they both had enough already and had lend-lease options. While the crews didn't like working with them Infantry liked them. More firepower is always appreciated, and compared to tanks they could actually communicate since it was an open vehicle.
At 11:03 APHE rounds only get overpressure when they have more than 170 grams of TNT equivalent. In other words, BR-365 APHEBC is _on the cusp_ of having overpressure enabled, but it just about doesn't reach.
There are two key areas of the stat card you are overlooking: fuse delay and fuse sensitivity. In this instance, the sensitivity is 14mm and the delay ONCE it penetrates that 14mm is 1.2 meters. So technically, if you shoot through something that has less than 14mm of armor, it won't detonate. If it pens 14mm of armor, the round still travels 1.2 meters before exploding. This is why some vehicles don't get overpressured by APHE. If the round goes through and through and upon exit, has hit the 14mm threshold, it will travel 1.2 meters outside of the target before it detonates.
9:04 Im sure the CAS players are going to go "should have used cover/should have driven 2 grid squares away/shouldn't have been in the open" even after something like that happening lols.
Hey there, Spooks. The I would really enjoy to see you play the Swedish Lvtdgb m/40. It has the same fantastic 40 mm canon as the ANTI II, but on a truck hull instead. Love your videos. :)
Day 88 You should play a tank with hydropneumatic suspension (recommend the MBT-70) But the catch is you have to drop the suspension as low as it can go for the whole match.
It's the kind of vehicle's that makes me realise how much we need the SU-76I in the game, it would be such a fun time and could be a cool thing to have between the SU-76 and higher TDs
0:27 Even at 5.7 (T-34-85) I use the BR-365 APHEBC instead of the BR365K APHE, more reliable angled penetration, and better penetration at range above 550m (both angled and flat), and the penetration at close range is indeed lower but from my experience its enough for most targets, also the higher explosive mass will allow to hit weakpoint at goofy angles and still kill most if not all the crew in a one tap which wouldn't be possible with the BR365K, and most of the targets that you cant penetrate with the BR365 you wont be able to penetrate with the BR365K anyways
Attempt 43 Challenge: For high tier support a nations MBT with its respective APC/IFV counterpart (ie Abrams/Bradley, T90/BMP2M, etc.) Challenge is keeping the other player alive and supporting it without stealing kills (breaking barrels, tracking, repairing, etc) it being a random should help make it interesting.
Attempt 57 of getting Spookston to play the 90/53 M41M - an Italian glass cannon that penetrates anything at its BR....but it only has 8 bullets! No, that was not a spelling error, I *really* mean 8.
You see that enemy was using a special alloy of armor called plot armor which can withstand a metric crap ton of damage and therefore he lived as plot armor is capable of living through nukes. Plot armor is also more commonly known as bullshitum.
11:05 well, not quite, 175g of TNT equivalent is the amount for a round to cause overpressure. But by that you can tell that the Soviet 85mm APHEBC with 160g of TNT has the strongest damaging ability among all the non-overpressurable APHE rounds.
Spookston if you have it I think it would be cool to see you play the BM-31-12 the Andryusha. It’s just a Katyusha with better rockets and at 4.0 it seems pretty fun.
Still Day 1 of asking Spookston to do the “Average Warthunder Player Challenge” i.e. listen to loud music/play without sound but still include it into the video so we can yell at the screen “HES RIGHT THERE!” But you never hear us. Peak Immersion.
Back when people spammed the finnish KV-1B for events this thing was somewhat of a hardcounter because you could actually pen the KV on angles that literally no other soviet 4.0/3.7 could. Even though this slow ass coffin was already shit back then every destroyed KV-1B gave me the amount of dopamine to compensate for the depression that was induced into my brain by driving this
Your poor driver! Half of the hits you took went straight through his face 💀 I love that you have enough experience to know when your survival (or rapid disassembly) results from your own good play, your enemy's stupid play or Gaijin's well polished game design 😂
Spookston, I just wanted to say thank you for all your videos which, every time I watch them, bring a huge smile to my face. Don't ever stop creating content because no matter what you do, you'll always be able to entertain most of us.
The worst TD has to be the M901 in its current depressing state after all the ATGM nerfs and the launcher that folds back and needs to be deployed as soon as the tank exceeds 20kph like the Bradley
