    I've never had as much fun in Warthunder then when I was flying either P-80s. They've always been surprisingly good in different ways, and were definitely what kept me playing Warthunder for the longest time.

    This was the first jet I researched, but because I was grinding the 'Space Race' event I didn't realise I was researching it and just autopiloted from one plane to the next and then realised when the event ended I was researching the F-84B now (back when the US tree only had 4 lines), and just for the memes I have never and will never test fly the F--80's either of them. God I am an idiot.

  • @690_5

    in my eyes the best starter jet is the F3D. It's (relatively) fast, it'll turn better than the stat card suggests, 4 M3 20mms... two radars, two "pilots", two engines and two dinner plates for a windshield. It's a great way to learn energy, plus airspawn.

Even won an engagement against a migh 15 bis in it lol, sadly didnt get to kill it cause I got third partied, but still made me feel good about my maneuvering skill.

    Enjoying your content. Been watching your stuff for a few weeks. I like your style of reviews and then actual gameplay. It's a good mix. I'm just getting back into WT from a 4+ year hiatus. Really rusty, trying to play on a laptop with touchpad; not the best. Haven't even attempted to fly my jets (lvl 100), just reacquainting myself with props. I may try to snag an external keyboard and mouse - have only had six matches since returning.

Then the snail gave me the A10 and I will spade this beautiful tank killing ugly big bird until I get the four AAs. I do try once in a while to do jet combat but only to remind me how much I suck at it.

    Grind the F-80C-10, it's even better! Insane turnrate (not THE best turning jet, but definately one of them!), great roll, great energy retention, great handling even at lower speeds and of course it's still the fastest jet out there. If you play your cards right this thing is an absolute beast and is capable of whacking almost everything it faces!

    • @georgivanev7466

      Fastest jet out there? What the heck are you even talking about? At 7.7BR your performance is kinda shit compared to other jets of the same BR, not to mention if you get uptiered which happens a lot. You can only pray for low level out of energy players. If you want a 7.7 jet the F-84RE is much better

    hey, since you're on the topic of first jets, I just unlocked my first jet in the matter of the MD 450B Ouragan.
    Have been doing pretty well with this thing, but everybody I play with keeps telling me this jet is trash tier and I should not have grinded it. Only issue I see with it is that the acceleration is pretty low, but again I odn't have much experience with jets so maybe I completely miss the point.
    Have you ever tested it ?

    Start by a dive directly at q base that has another base clise to it ( 2 bases beside each other) 4 bombs for each
    Go straight to your base killing some ai on the way with your 7.62
    Some planes will come on your back going in a straigh line with minimal evading is recommended and try to hit their engines with ur turret since they have weak engines a damaged one will lead them to crash i return to the airfield with 2 bases with 4 to 5 ai kills and 1 or 2 planes after taking off i go for bases if left but if not i will focus on ground targets cuz aa is the bain of this plane so bombing airfields is not recommended
