i love this plane especially when i was grinding the f16. only thing i had to get used to was decelerating enough to get rid of the mach cone during dogfights/any interaction.
Something else I’ve noticed is the F-5E/F-5C is a much ‘colder’ aircraft than a lot of other aircraft at their BR. What that means is, unless I’m using an AiM-9L or something with a sensitive seeker, I have to close to within 2km to use a missile, where if it was a MiG-21 I’d be able to shoot within 3-4km. Even if the F-5 is using afterburner.
I play the 5.7 F4u a lot and it feels like the cannons are good again. Granted I only play it in custom battles with friends because it’s at a terrible br, but still they feel good to use again
@@jaydenlee3091 I’m talking about the planes at it’s br. It can fight them but it never gets the chance because the entire enemy team is usually all ju-288s
Tip in the F5E and F5C from personal experience, I've never had to drop afterburner to flare a missile, it feels like the engines are colder than the game says they are
you haven't played the Draken yet and yes even if it got no flares, it's faster than a F104S so you are going to outpace most missiles, and since it now retains more energy than the MiG19 (bullshit, but J35A sold well) it will even be able to slowly zig zag to deplete the missile's speed
Video on f5a? Im going to grind it after i finish the ptz89 and need a cas jet with my ztz99-II, a5c is good but no smart munitions and my potato pc has a hard time rendering tanks, planes and especially helis even at close range
this thing is damn good. i carry the 30 mil gunpod just because it can, and 2 agm's for blind frogfoots or the bot harriers. Yall should try it. just fly from your right base towards the enemy airfield and you can headon lock at least 2 ppl
You should try climbing at 20 degrees in the F5E. If you do, most of the time you end up above everyone else, and from there you can clean house pretty well. Since it's 10.7 you also don't have to worry much about pulse dopler SARHs or much of any radar missiles beyond the occasional R3Rs.
would not recommend unless you get a down tier, those f4e with sparrows will bully you at high altitudes. and for some reason all the 11.3 games have america on both teams so you will be fighting phantoms (or worse, looking at you f14a at 11.7).
@@nicks1221 I dont stay at high altitude and countering sparrows and dodging fights up there is easy. From there I go down and drop in behind enemies I know are flareless or not paying attention and they will get a 9J up their ass. I do this strat every game and I never die up top. and almost never run into F4Es. Anything you pass up there you just fly straight and they will either ignore you, or bleed all of their speed trying to turn.
@@nicks1221 i do it all the time and the only active fox1 threat up there are r3r from mig21 that prey on clueless folk. maybe if you climb towards the enemy climbing path you'd get fucked by them, but you're pretty much safe against anything that you can't see if you climb to your team climbpath
Somehow I saw your video seconds after release and I was wondering if you look at the comments in the first 20 mins or you wait for people to have the time to watch the video
Tbh 20s bit OS'ing every time is something i'm strating to really like, it feels like the damage models are starting to actually matter, and truthfully it's not like a single 20mm burst is gonna OS it's target IRL either, heck 20s not being reliable enough is the whole idea behind somenations opting for the 30s :/
I have always thought the high tier U.S. HE rounds have been dogwater, so I stay away from them as much as possible. I was using the universal belts (2x API, 1X HE) with the F-5E and it felt NUCLEAR! Things were just melting in front of me.
I almost exclusively play the F-5E since it got the 10.7 downtier. I have at least 4 days of in game time play in it. Here lately there's been a good amount of downtiers to 9.7-10.3. Some occasional 11.3's with very rare full uptiers, but you will occasionally see F-14's on your team. I find the cannons to be kinda reliable. I've definitely noticed that they do actually 1 shot more than they used to, but with that said, they're still far more reliable fire starters. Plenty of times people will steal a kill from me because the cannons just didn't bop hard enough. I use universal belt for more ap rounds, as real shatter is unreliable, to say the least. My strat for this jet is to go up to just below contrail height with my radar off (I don't usually use it unless I'm looking for the last guy) for a bit of extra stealth, and dive in on unsuspecting jets. It's an amazing dogfighter as well with great low speed handling, just don't be slow around a lot of people because you won't get speed back fast. TLDR: I really like this jet.
Cannons reliable very Gsh23L: One shots you and even if it doesn't you go down in 10 seconds Colt Mk11: One shots you 100% ADEN: removes your wings MG151: still best gun AN-M: better damage per hit than most stuff lol.
also do the climb to below contrail, but instead of pouncing down i look for enemy contrails and try to get behind them as they're definitely jousting my team' contrails too. easy kills most of the time, and when they're not i've saved a teammate and forced a high-priority target down to the deck
I just started playing War Thunder and am currently on the F4 in rank 2 and p400 and do not know which route to take any advice on whether i should take the f14 or f16, I'm aware I would also get the f5e if I do go towards the f16 route so I'm not sure because of the iconic tomcat.
You see a lot of Kfir, Milan and premium jets bombing and dieing \ running to enemy base because all of them are bots. Bot is huge in the game and will actually kill it in the long run if not addressed. For ARB at that BR, there are 3 to 6 bots every match PER TEAM.
