The Cromwell V RP-3 in War Thunder is a British Tank with some rockets on the side of the turret. The Cromwell RP-3 is basically the tech tree vehicle with the added spice of having some APHE rockets that although are difficult to aim are actually very destructive.
Britain has no lack of really goofy tanks these days. The Cromwell RP-3 was the very first derp vehicle but since the Churchill Crocodile and Churchill AVRE, I suppose this little guy has been overlooked.
With no stabilizer, 100mm of penetration and solid shot... this tank is pretty difficult to master especially when your reverse gear is practically non-existent.
Regardless of its short comings, it's pretty fun to play! :)

So true
Gimme ur ge
yo odd can you please play the object 685, you still dont have a vid on it
They call me the red rocket
CodeMineMan? What are you doing here ?(again)
ah, swordfight thursday?
Play with odd again
Don't make me get the skittles...
@@thezenic_real you remembered!
Oddbawz, that RBT-5 video will go down as one of your most legendarily fun videos you have ever uploaded on UA-cam.
RBT5 is one of the most legendarily fun vehicles in warthunder. Completely not worth the money but it is a hell of a blast to play.
@@aaronfalcon3152 in my eyes, the tears in my eyes playing it, make it well worth the money
The disrespect.
the cromwell plays like a combo from a fighting game: it goes great until you mess up, then it's probably over.
btw the Cromwells turret armour is actually 13mm thicker all round than it says ingame, it has a 13mm internal "shell" where the riveted external armour you see ingame is mounted onto. Dosent change a whole lot, but the armour is a bit better than it seems and its just a unique design
I don’t know about anyone else’s experience, but for its BR the Cromwell is surprisingly survivable, especially compared to other British tanks. Its armors not good on paper, but it’s worked pretty well for me when Ive played it. The 57mm Cromwell 1 is the one to play though.
I like it too, especially the one with the stabilizer. And the speed...
We finally have a video on the Cromwell RP-3! Keep up the content!
That's my favourite British tank, I'm a sucker for the Cromwells and crusaders, and those rockets have saved me on multiple occasions
literally my favorite British tank, i love it so much, just requires experience with RP-3s to use
British tanks never seem to surprise me
From what i heard each letter of the word fun in "British tech tree" stands for how fun that tree is.
PS: this joke sounded better in my small mind
Glad you came round on the Cromwell it didn't look great when I first looked at it in the tree but I think it has just enough armour and damage on top of some decent speed that just makes it really lethal
The F8F-1 Bearcat just got dropped to 4.7, making it even more of a monster in the right hands. Sounds like the perfect excuse to take it out for a CAS video.
Edit: This tank is ridiculous. It's like something out of looney tunes.
Even though I don’t buy premium vehicles I appreciate the cool *british* (for fucking once) ground vehicles that are being added
I love the cromwell, you play it similar to a MBT, average armour, average gun, and very fast.
meanwhile MBTs: Basically all have the same gun, are all very fast, and most have the similar armour
Finally! My brother!
I love playing the Cromwell RP-3. It takes a lot of practice to get used to angling the rockets. I find the best tactic is to disable with the solid shot then finish off with the rocket. They all fly in slightly different directions too, so knowing which one is firing is essential for accuracy.
I love all the rocket sounds in this game
I don't know if people tell you this often but you're an inspiration to my vision challenged self and you're also hilarious
I've been waiting for you to do a video on this vehicle forever I love it it's so fun
This video is better than any show on TV. Now I know how to spend my evening💝
I guess the rockets really do have a steep learning curve if even Odd struggles with them.
I wish they'd add the Staghound "Tulip" so we could get a vehicle that can aim the RP-3s vertically as well. It is satisfying when you slam on your breaks and point blank someone with the RP-3s on this.
Do bring out the 6-pounder Cromwell too some time. It does have stabilized gun as you said and even better power/weight ratio.
I love to take that out together with the 47mm Tempest V, which is a beast on its own - it may be solid shot, but it's 36 big, high-pen rounds *per gun* mounted on a fast aircraft (duh, it's a Tempest at 3.7). It has great staying power and if you have allies that can clean up after you, it really can turn matches.
I always liked the Calliope more if I want to play with rockets. Even if they’re not great for getting kills all the time, they make a great smoke screen when needed. Being able to aim them helps too. I think they had strapped these to Firefly Sherman’s too, sad to see there isn’t one of them to play with.
Triple ace in that last game was impressive, a vehicle I have fun in is the British premium Corsair and I usually don't enjoy playing the Corsair but at it's br it can be fun probably because in most games I've been in the enemy are in bi planes
Honest to God, favorite tank in War Thunder!!! With the RBT-5 as a very close runner up.
The combination of luck and skill (mostly skill, of course) was a fantastic display in the last match❤😮
I love the RP-3 part
I absolutely loved this thing for low tier Britain. So much fun
This is one of my favorite verticals it is a lot of fun.
hey, love your content. glad that you are just doing this for fun now instead of trying to get good content. would love to see a video on the AB-43 if you haven't done one already
It seems like the Cromwell is "just fast enough" to give you luck and have people mess up their snap fires / get you into position to save your butt
I saw someone for a video have background footage of the Yak-141, and I then remembered that it was completely forgotten about. Could we see a video on it?
Same with the Yak-38 and the other Russian VTOL aircraft in the air tech tree.
The Sea Hurricane Mk IC is actually pretty fun if you know how to fly them, but it struggles more than a spitfire when facing multiple opponents. I'd like the Hurricane Mk IIC as it'd maintain the four cannons while also having some bombs.
The British 75mm isn't very fun to use due to the awful post pen damage, but it's actually a nightmare when you're in the Churchill VII.
you hit so many shots while moving because cristie suspension is so good.
try the T-34 series, they are amazing
Ive had good luck with the crownwell, bouncing shots id never expect.
Dont get me wrong, SARC bobble head is my 3.3 go to, but the crownwell can hold its own.
3:53 bumm! BPA_Jon moment 😁
Love this little tank.
Here's an idea. The XM-Abrams or the M1A1 AIM and using the worst shell and full Ammo load for more ammo racked deaths to suffer. [Yes, I'm a Sadist whom enjoys the Ammo rack deaths.]
love the sea hurricane ty
I've gotten this thing from the daily crates, and it's pretty fun to use ngl
For my tank suggestion I'd like to see the Magach 3 (ERA). I've never seen anyone use it or talk about it for quite a long time now, but my personal experience with it is that it's can be quite a survivable bunker with ERA at 8.0.
I would be very happy to see you play the ELC BIS
You should make a video on the Pbv 302 (BILL)… Although you are my favorite War Thunder CC, I do think I would enjoy to watch you suffer… Sorry Odd
About the only thing I don't like about this tank is that it's the Cromwell V, not the I. Where's mah six-pounder?! 😂
Edit: 30:22 The KV-2 wasn't firing HE, that's how you survived. It glanced off the side of your turret. A HE round probably wouldn't have bounced.
i honestly kinda prefer the 75mm, better HE and a lil more spall imo
@@r.ndomperson Yet the six-pounder is higher BR...
Surely I'm not the only one who really likes the Cromwell?
I turned this video on to my grandmother and now she wants to be a blogger too. I think we have a new project🐱
if you could move the rockets up and down it would probably get moved up to 7.7 lol
Honestly, any tank which physically could mount them facing straight really should be able to. This included.
Yesterday I had a wonderful game with the zerstorer (pardon me butchering it) the German 6.0 AA tank with 4 30mm drum fed cannons, and while protecting my teams cap I got 6 tank kills including an assist on an IS2 that I kept tracking, I’d love to see a video of you using it as a pure TD lol
The most fun you can have in WT :D
Could I request a video on the H-34? The one with the single bullpup missile.
More helicopter content would be fun.
Odd, I dare you to play the AMD.35 (SA35). The one with the 47mm. It's diabolical!
Please consider the Pz 2 50mm scout rmk, it is fantastic now since its Br remained the same as old 50mm Puma. Excellent CAS sp farmer.
Technically the the Cromwell V should get M61 APHE not just M61 solid shot seeming that that brits did use the M61 with APHE later in the war. Unfortunately gaijin refuses the idea and so the Cromwell I remains the better choice with the 6pndr AT gun
I recommend you try out the Tandem MAI. I recommend using in in ground battles because, well, it ain't a nimble plane
YAG 10 gameplay? 🥺
My boyfriend laughed so loud that the neighbors came to see what happened. Now they are watching this video too😻
you did make a vid on this tank a long time ago, pretty sure it was the same lineup too
I still think a proxy fuse only vid would be funny.
Not watched the vid yet but I know it's amazing
You have played this version before on the channel, it was just a long time ago, like three or so years back? Pre pc woes at the very least... I watched it again recently iirc, you played on the desert map with the coastal town and the bridge on the other flank... You got yourself ambushed by a T34 and some other tank, having had your rp3s ammo racked I think
Hey odd you should try the Ikv 72 for sure man! It's a great low tier TD for Sweden
Yeah I remember a while ago I got a 75% discount for it and still I wasn't convinced to buy it. I ended up flipping a coin and bought it.
*every british enginer*:
who say british tank dont have explosive fillar?
Hey. i figured out that Cromwell's are VERY good angled
My all time fav tank
Odd could you take a very low BR into super high BR ? How much of a BR split could you do and still be effective ? I think you clowning on high BR in a low BR would be fanatic !
@OddBawZ reset and 2nd day in a row asking for the Chinese 4.0 lineup...with the plane being a P-51D-20, and the tanks the M4A1 (75) W and the T-34 (1943).
You should play the mighty FV4005 and absolutely delete Jagdtigers
I got a crazy challenge what I would like to watch where you use strapnal rounds like the ones found in the 4.0 T-34 or KV-1
Oddbawz! Play the M8 HMC!
What about Tiger 2 Sla 16 gameplay?
Panzer II when?
speaking of rockets, you should try out the strv81 premium
Aw cheers Odd, made ma night this lol😊😅
Can you play Leo 1 L44, with the new br changes it’s quite enjoyable
bt7m but you have to go above 40 km/h to engage a target for a speedy challenge
The Cromwell 1 Is also insanely fast
Odd i really love your vids keep it up :)
0:28 you have featured it before in the firecrest video
Totally forgot this tank existed, even tho I own it...
Why did those hurricane ground belts have 37mm of pen? Wtf.
Please do the mosquito
Odd, can you do a video on SPAA that are better TDs than SPAA? Suggestions include the ZA-35, Falcon, ZSU-57-2, L/62 ANTI II, etc
no views with 11 comments, very nice
Hit the brakes and fire on the hull dip to shoot flat close range
You playing at this BR should be a war crime, I've recently downloaded warthunder, and got 30 battles under my belt and i truly dread, coming across someone like you with 10,000 battles under your belt, doesn't seem fair at all!
BRs aren't elo tiers, they're tech tiers. Play at whatever BR you find most interesting.
I think the KV-2 at 26:07 was using APHE or SAP
Can you play the south African rooi kat I'm from south Africa so seeing someone play my nation's tank will be good and also love the content keep it up!
Rooikat MTTD honestly does look quite good
Hey Odd you should play the UDES 33 or maybe the Strf 9040 BIL. I really enjoy the UDES but haven't researched the Strf 9040 BILL yet.😃
Please play the KV-2
IM TWEAKIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
F-ing yotube ads took to long so i couldn't put first in the comments
I'll never be the same man again
Odd, play some simulation battles for a change of pace. Itll be fun to see how it goes.
I need to play this more often lmao 🤦
Did anyone else catch the phone notification ding around the beginning of the video?
26:08 the KV2 was very dumb and was using AP instead of the HE.
Need more rp3 tanks, seen the Sherman?
Sherman Tulip would be so fun in WT, along with the armored cars
@@r.ndomperson Yes, they COULD be fun, especially since historically they could be fitted with armor piercing warheads. However, Gaijin would almost certainly say that for "historical" reasons they're only going to get access to the high explosive RP3 warheads, which are much less effective in WT, darn near useless. The Tulips were only high explosive. In addition, one rocket was set to a fixed range of 400 yards, the other a fixed range of 800 yards. These were extremely good against infantry and anti-tank guns. But yeah, seems like a really easy thing to incorporate into the game and put it as low-level battle pass vehicle.
You should play the m42 duster cas loves it.
