The Falcon Is A Very Dumb Tank

- Some anti-air tanks in War Thunder are actually much better as tank destroyers, and the British Falcon might just be the epitome of that. It gets a belt with 30mm APDS and APHE, and not only that, it has no radar or passive aircraft tracking. It's not as fast as the ZA-35, but it's still very silly.

Please play crusader with the secondary turret this is the 121st time I've asked play the French one for all I care
Just please play it
Day 31 of asking Spook to play the CT CV105hp
@@On7. Mine first
Oh, trust me. We can all hate this thing when we’re against it! 😂
honestly the amx 30 aa is beeter imo
A lineup with this the za35 and Marksman is what I use
Tell me about it. That thing is a nightmare. 🙄
Britain mains never have to fight it 💪
@@thatoneonion in some positions falcon is better simply cuz is smaller lmao
4:00 “Oh wow, even the reverse speed is really bad.”
British main: First time?
If you use a Cromwell, get a tiny crowbar and remove the S key from the keyboard.
Its presence will only manage to deceive you.
I am not even exaggerating.
surely chieftain mk10 vid spookston, its another good british vehicle
it's not like he will like it, but it is indeed quite good rn
@@mirekspodmonopolowego9016he hates anything British even if he does well aka THE FOX.
Pretty modern design for an old tank
The centurion mk 10 sucks he should play a better tank like the strv 101

Remember:
Maxim 42: "They'll never expect this," means, "I want to try something stupid."
Maxim 43: If it's stupid and it works, it's still stupid and you're lucky.
Isn't that Murphys Law?
@@sampackman69 No, these are a part of the Seventy Maxims of Maximally Effective Mercenaries.
A common aphorism amongst selfsame mercenaries is "Do Not Taunt Murphy" - but this is not an explicit Maxim. Murphy's Law is often simplified to "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong."
@@KiithnarasAshaaschlock mercenary sighting!
Gaijin making SPAAs better at killing tanks than MBTs so often makes me question playing conventional tanks in the tank game
Doesn't matter, what's fun is worth playing
All they need to do is limit SPAAs to only one belt of AP ammo (in case the ammo is all ready at the same time, make it 80 rounds total) and the rest should be HE ammo. There's your fix. Gaijin wants to make SPAAs reloadable on spawn so incase of spawnkilling you reload the AP belts at spawn.
WHY? honestly ; why ?
like ; SPAAs never have armor, and except a few, tank killing isn't very easy, you need a completely different play style
@@interpl6089 dawg that would also make CAS fighting SPAAs bad, and inaccurate
like ; imagine a ZSU-57-2 with only and HE belt, this isn't accurate at all, in real life there was a APHE belt so there will be one in game
Simple as that
@@interpl6089and then make spading SPAAs even more pitiful? Most SPAAs can't scratch tanks in their BR range, those who do are the exception, not the rule

This single sound effect is the funniest thing about the entire video.
I've been trying to hunt down what that sound effect is/what it's from, but I've not been able to find anything
@@Las3r_Cat same here
Breaking bad Gus exploding scene with some reverb and bass boosted at the end. I am pretty sure that is what it is
@@nathenclay4907doesn't sound like it though
It's a video of a dude at a urinal getting blasted by like 10 dudes
Try the Antelope if you want to suffer. You get:
- FOUR MISSILES
- no photocontrast mode
- no search
- really bad lock range, ~5.5km against a target in full afterburner and less than 2km against helis even without IR shielding
- missiles are slow and have trouble catching targets in rear aspect
- missiles can be flared with little effort despite having IRCCM
- can't fire on the move
The Antelope is just the Chaparral but Japanese and somehow worse lmao. I wanna see it
A Japanese guy on a bike (a Fuji, of course) with an FIM-92 might be a more viable vehicle than the Antelope
@c.andrew3944 dude just give him a Nambu and it'll be better than the Antelope lmao
I love the antelope, despite it being terrible
it's truck 👍
Well it’s Chinese. What did you expect?
War thunder is one of those games that's exceptionally fun to watch someone else play, but a living hell when you play it yourself. Your videos are very fun and full of humour, i like them 👍
I swear because of Spookston I reinstall this game at least 5 or 6 times a year, play three matches, then immediately uninstall.
British engineers on their way to put the most underpowered engine ever conceived into a 16 ton tank:
They learned from the americans, sherman engine in the doom turtle :D
@@MikeyMochaSherman was fine. Perfect for mass production and reliability
@Rileyam2 he said the Shermans engine in the T-95
Like an 80ish ton tank with the Shermans engine is not very good

The Leyland Motor Corporation single handedly ruining the reputation of british tanks for 40 years is one of the funniest/saddest military procurement disasters.

You'd think the AMX 50 to90 would also be balanced with aphe and a 4 zec reload....
plz play it at top-tier
@@UltimEVB good idea, he used char 25t which is the same (good speed, aphe, autoloader) but at its own br.
Giorno 20 of asking Spookston to play Lancia R3o (100/17), even if late!
THE TRUCK WON'T REST, AVANTI SAVOIA!
AVANTI SAVOIA!
100mm hesh pasta waggon AVANTI SAVOIA
Fcking anti-concrete howitzer truck be funny
Also breda 501. Those two milktrucks are fun even at 8.0.
@@BattleSaberj i only recently got into the Italian tech tree so I'm not at 8.0 yet but its probably the funnest faction so far goofy but good
Day 129 of asking Spookston to play the ikv 72
It's GOATED!
@@Itzjaboygijsfr
YES PLEASE, that thing ANNIHLATES low tier. 15° of depression, super mobile, low and sneaky, with a ballin APHE round.
@@Boiofthetimesisn’t it 20 degrees?
@@stellanlundgren3600yes it is
Mr Hewes, one the guys and girl behind the restoration pf the FV4005 Stage 2 (Spud). Actually has the experimental Abbot hull for the falcon turret, so this vehicle can be restored with some funding (and if they find the Turret).
He's such a cool UA-camr
He is currently restoring a STuG 3 (as well as numerous other Centurions, a T-34, some Bedford vans, an Abbot, and a lot of other vehicles) he gave Whistlin Diesel his Chieftan, he restored the FV4005, and is all around a good guy
@@sampackman69 the abbot is a falcon
@@Duke_of_Petchington yeah but he's restoring a different one, for the Tank museum in Bovington
@@sampackman69 oh yeah, forgot about that one, would love to see hime restore the Action X cent turret on a Viable hull.
Another light tank that has a good canon and excellent mobility is the Radkampfwagen 90, day 24.
@5:55 "not in my house" "no my house!"
Spookston casually inserts the Hrimfaxi ost from AC 5 into this video
5:24 Steam started coming out of the falcon like an angry cartoon character xD
British tanks are just screwed BECAUSE war thunder can’t model AP rounds damage properly. In world war 2 British AP was VERY effective against German and Italian tanks.
We know. This was repeated since the British were added nearly a decade ago.
But boy does British AA absolutely slap somehow
@@aiedenoldstien9751 any aa with the magical sap they get slaps. the apds with the falcon and dca is just a bonus
@interpl6089 your comment adds even less to the discussion than OP. Take the stick out of your butt, sunshine.
@@interpl6089 you don’t think I’m well aware?
Spookston consistently releasing videos at the same time I go to lunch is why I’m still alive
I was looking for a video to watch but than you uploaded thank you
You know what is also a very dumb Tank?
The Sturmtiger, but posing as a bush.
Got seven kills in that in one go lol
there's something about these SPAAs being better at killing tanks than planes that i find both fascinating and infuriating all in one package
10:25: Clearly, this man was on a mission to re-enact some World in Conflict scenes.
Heard you like goblin tanks, then you will like the LePKz M41. It is essentially a M41 bulldog with HEATFS.
Day 9+10 (21)
doesn't the Bulldog already have beat-fs ?
@@UltimEVB The German one has HEATFS, the American one doesn't.
Unfortunately it gets APCR stock. It sucks so badly
@@Canadian_Ale Yea, it was a pain in the ass to grind.
@@somerandomdude5692 it's one of the only vehicles I used to GE to just get a better round and honestly it was worth it
0:27 that's a sign that he tab to another window
U saying he might be cheating?
@@Nuttarpillar no. might just watching YT or typing on discord
as long as you tab to another window your turret will look like that
You know what would be EPIC? Playing the M56 ratatouille with ONLY HESH
0:42 Spooky Dog’s favorite new sound effect: GAU-8 test fire.
Should have played the new Stormer AD instead. 25mm brrrt and Stingers.
This was a fun one. Love watching you play gremlins
The British cashing in all the post pen they missed out with their glorified cannonballs with this vehicle’s APHE
7:01 the way Spookston says Somua is so aggressively french.
13:00 more ace combat ost
10:52 Thats me!
Your teammates were looking juicy crossing the street…
I got baited
Day 25 of telling spookston to play the IT1. its a ATGM launcher on the t62 chassis, it has decent-ish mobility, the turret is squished. You can hide behind cover and shoot ATGM over the cover like a gremlin and you overpressure tanks (tho it can be rare, but it does happen without you realizing) and its MG is really werid. Also it has a cool reload animation.
spookston when the german main doesn't see him: what a nincompoop
spookston when the german main does notice him: :0
Yes we are there boys British called out now time for CONCEPT 3 ,I have been asking for it more than 5 months
Hey spook....you know what would be fun? Vickers mk1, 5 second reload 350+ pen British. I say would be fun
There are two types of spookston viewers: people that occasionally watch him, and people that watch him so much that they develop a parasocial relationship with him
Considering I've watched every single video of his that he is uploaded in the last two years I think I know which park I'm in
If theres one thing the fiat 6614 fears, its auto cannons, they are THE counter to the slow reloading thin armor having armor hunter (you should play it btw)
12:46 that Prince of Egypt reference was good, underrated movie
Those SPAA's around that tier are completely busted in my opinion. I hate CAS but I've been trying to work on my bombing recently and they just absolutely SMOKE early slower jets or props it's almost pointless being in a plane if someone is in an SPAA
i feel like spookie performs almost the same in any tank, whether it be good or bad, because he is so good at adapting to a vehicle's strengths and weaknesses
0:38
I fuggin love that sound. 😂🤣😂
Love the use of Greg the Sorcerer, fits perfectly and that dude's wholesome as heck.
Well, except the time he vaporized a man, but otherwise lovely :P
Spookston you need to play the french autoloading menace known as the AMX M4 since its a fun tank to play and really scary when its used right
Halo 2 AND reach sound effects in a single video?
Spookston is treating us for sure.
I love how like mid to top tier just becomes an autocannon slugging match so often.
Most tanks, even some mbts, were cutting back on armour around this BR
@@tackyinbention6248 Yea. Because we're at the point where armor itself isn't as important as crew survivability. As we've got rounds that basically ignore armor now.
Spookston: I dont like British tanks, but I like this Ifv with a funny autocannon
day: idk, spooki play the kpz the
APFSDS has like 285 mm of pen, you could try it to see if its good or bad
It’s very good, amazing gun handling, very quick, 20mm is super useful, and adjustable suspension allows it to get a bit more depression and abuse spots.
My only complaint is that the damage on the APFSDS can be a bit- strange, for some reason… but the penetration is really well not too big of an issue
Attempt 21 of asking Spookston to play the T95E1, it has been waiting for 2 years.
2:22 WHERE IS IT
Yeah I was wondering
Theres a third wire going up the sky
I know these videos are heavily edited and there's quite a buffet to choose from, but my absolute favorite edits have to be the sheer number of Halo references in the videos. Whether it's a sound clip pulled as a joke, background music, or just Spookston making a passing comment about Halo, it's all great. Where can I get Spooky Halo content.
If someone speaks broken English, can it be consider as English-ish?
Day 22 of asking Spookston to play with a controller
the jpz4-5 isn't very dumb but i still think spookston would enjoy it
What is the 0:39 sound bite from?
Its from breaking bad
Lazer piss meme?
Broooo the sound effects kill me lmaoo pls never stop them
Day 41 of asking Spookston to play Arcade Mode. Please… just once…
The fact that this thing shreds everything in top BR battles too is quite a devious act of violence
that somua was somua-t oblivious.
France needs some more love, especially the AMX M4. Crazy gun, engine, and turret traverse at 6.7
Oh shit, a Prince of Egypt edit? Absolute classic movie, love seeing it pop up still. And on a Falcon video, no less? Goated video, my Friday made
5:22 you know things are bout to get nuts when this Halo Reach track plays
Other WarTuberz bully the plebs: asleep
Spookston wipes entire teams: funi
Hey Spookston, can you make a video talking about every nations best sounding tank production line, and then they completely scratched that program started something completely new for an advantage during certain wars?
4:24 wtf yeah after rewinding, i can confirm that was a patton before
Spookston playing the Falcon: Swarms and swarms of lightly armored things
Me playing the falcon: Comrade, would you like to meet our fleet of IS's?
4:45 Funny thing is Ive actually killed a maus with this before. Theres a funny shot trap on the front of the turret.
Play the VFM5, it's hugely underated, holds it own in uptiers and can be played as a ambush ratting tank, the shell slices through pretty much everything.
First time in a while I've ever heard someone use the word "Trundling"
Realllllly wanna hear cod zombie noises for planes again, its too perfect
HEY SPOOKSTON, THE LOSAT HAS BEEN BUFFED AS FAR AS I KNOW, the rockets didnt wiggle for me
Thanks spookston for making my day a bit better after hurricane Milton
Giorno 11 of asking spookston to play my favourite tank, the ikv 91-105. Decent mobility, VERY good cannon (Sweden rules)
"oh wow, even the reverse speed's real bad"
Well, yeah, its a British vehicle, what do you expect?
11:04. I can't count how many times an enemy being DUMB worked in their favour, man.
Harder to fight a dumb enemy in some regards here, can never tell what they'll really do holy
Uhh spookston m22 top tier I’ve been waiting for 10 days😊
You should play the Churchill crocodile and try to get a kill with the flamethrower
Morn of the first day in which I humbly request Spookston to play the Chieftain 😊
Attempt 5 at asking spookston to play with T1/M6 heavy but only using the 37mm
Video 25 of asking Spookston to play the FIAT 6614.
I think i need to take a shower after watching this filthy thing
13:55 what’s worse than a CAS player who dive bombs you? A CAS player who dive bombs the whole team.
Spookston has lived long enough to see himself become the villain.
U can’t hate it when playing but when facing …
that TU-4 was making sure no one remains on Town
The funniest thing to do in a Falcon is to smoke a heavy tank in a panic.
Video 72 of asking Spookston to please play the TO-55
I absolutely love the Falcon. My first nuke in the Game was from a Falcon x Fox combo lol
Day 21: I Implore you to play the Rooikat Mk.1D. Its fast, it can resist 50cals to the front, and its cannon tickles enemies to death.
Day two of asking Spookston to play cursed tank simulator
Reject survivability, Embrace fire rate! Play the BTR-ZD please! (Day 4)
12:29 - and so the cycle of revenge continues, sad :(
I'm still waiting for Spookston to play the Nashorn.
I can't think of a good reason other than "I like it" but Spookston should play the Conqueror
Spookston liking british vehicle!!11!! (not clickbait)
Falcon is a real feast or famine tank, and is a deliciously brutal “i ran out of sp” comeback machine
Ah yes Spookstons yearly Falcon video
Autocannon vehicle in war thunder sure felt like speedsoft tomfoolery in real
The apds is good for mediums and heavies and the aphe is good for lights and open tops, but not both good for both.
Nice to see a friendly rando get a nuke in a Spookston video!
