Hi phly
@@connorcombs2597 Im not Phly but hi
You have to remember Phly that the HARM remembers where the radar is even when it is turned off.
You almost got the A bomb and didn't even realise in the first battle
Hi are we please able to play together I am a really big fan I have been watching your video for 4 years now and yesterday was my birthday and my wish is to play with you
Just remember, the Hunter F6, a subsonic that turns worse than nearly every other aircraft in game, carrying no flares or rwr, and with rear aspect only missiles that are only effective at 1km or less, faces the F14. Balance.
SRAAMs
@@swegme5005 Even if you believe the myth that they can't be dodged, SRAAMs are 1km max range, less if they're flying away from you. They attract to flares harder than most other missiles, and don't even guarantee a kill if they hit.
The Fucking A10 is lower with all aspect aim 9L's and enough ordnance to send half the other team back to hangar. Not to mention that at least that has a defensive trick up it's sleeve with its turn rate. In the hunter you've got to hope nobody on the other team notices you and someone fucks up and pulls infront if you at low speed without noticing you.
@@MrEsphoenix F-1 doesn't care flares or chaff (could if Gaijin gave it its Chaff pod), but even while carrying AiM-9Ps and being able to go supersonic, it's just not a fair fight now against Russia, Germany and GOD BLESS AMERICA.
@@snazzydazzy I'd take it over a hunter. I actually enjoy hunting phantoms and the likes in the jaguar and T2, they have a great turn and can take players by surprise by dropping speed fast whilst maintaining nose authority. They're outclassed for sure, but not to the same extent as the hunter.
(Cries in A7E)
The F-14's ability to snipe the enemy CAS spawn is so dirty.
gotta wait a few weeks to play top tier air huh
the helis can do similar
Ka50s been doing that for over 2 years
also AA's are pretty good, killing planes, if the search radar picks them up
its PH-14
Fun fact Phly, the reason you had trouble landing the Tomcat is actually authentic. The real thing had something called 'DLC' (Direct Lift Control) which was basically spoilers that were used to deliberately reduce lift so the Tomcat would actually go down, without it those massive wings and huge body that all produce a ridiculous amount of lift make it very hard to land
FaCtS ( facts!)
The A model didn’t have it which is why the one in wt does not have it
Hey Phly! When the Tomcat hype wears down, please do a review of Gunner, Heat PC during their big June events!!!
Need too for sure!
GHPC is hella fun
@@PhlyDaily make sure you get the patreon demo. Has the most content
@@NyteStalker89 and is generally more polished and you support the devs! they need the funding XD
@@PhlyDaily get the patreon demo and idk maybe pay like 300,000$ yk up to you
If I remember correctly, my father told me our enemies called the Abrams the whispering death, because it was so much quieter than a diesel engine. More or less steady sound with hardly any reving when changing speed or gears especially. He was an Abrams commander from '89 - '95 in the Armored Cavalry.
@Tearjerker A more consistent loud sound is harder to detect than an inconsistent quieter sound, imagine a constant hum, now imagine loud banging and rattling that has periods of no sound followed by loud bangs, even if those bangs are technically quieter than the constant hum, your brain interprets the loud banging as louder, and easier to pick out.
@Tearjerker it is quieter. By a large margin. About 10 years ago I was in Germany training with Germans, British, Polish, and Bulgarians. The Leopards, Challeys, and T72's were significantly louder than the Abrams, even up close. That comes at a cost though with insane fuel consumption.
@@InterstellarTaco Wow I bet that was an experience,I would’ve been geeking for those leopards tho😂
@@TheCommissarIsDead I'm a challenger fan myself but the Leo's are a work of art. Honestly the coolest thing to me was watching a BMP1/2 driving around and seeing how nimble they were, and even got to drive around a BMP1. Traded a guy a Beanie and a T shirt for some driving lessons. Lol
The problem though ist the much higher heat signature. I mean an attac helicopter is not gonna hear you anyway, but if you radiate like a furnace, that"ll get you killes.
11:39 the scuffed Top Gun theme lmao 😂😂😂
I mean you just said the exact reason we need HARMs in the game. They would force players to be smart with their radar. You can't just leave it on or you'll catch a missile. Would bring balance to the AA at top tier
Fr bro get the F-16 to do wild weasel stuff at top tier or at least add the F-4G.
Love how you can hear the joy in Phly’s voice in the intro. Fills my heart with joy and BRRRRRT
Phly, in the beginning just after the sponsor you said that the F 14 did not have as good of accuracy bombing compared to other aircraft like the F 18. This is quite the contrary to what was happening towards the end of tomcats career. The Bombcat was an incredibly successful air to ground platform, and even was able to complete missions the hornets could not. For example operating deep inside iraqi territory, whereas hornets wouldn't have the fuel to get there, and being able to carry more ordinance than the Legacy Hornets. From my understanding a reason why Tomcats werent used in the air to ground role before the late 90's is because they already had a dedicated air to ground platform known as the A-6 Intruder. When the A-6 was retired it left a gap in the Navy's ability to launch specific strike missions, missions where the Legacy Hornets could not complete. So they quickly and hastily created the bombcat and found it to be a very good air to ground platform. Love your content, keep it up.
cool story about the guy who designed the targeting pod for the F-14 but i dont remember where i heard it from. they wanted to dump a few billion into the F-14D and he just designed his own targeting pod with no engineering experience or nothing and they accepted it instead. could be getting that wrong.
@@shoeby9273 They re-worked the USAF's LANTIRN pod which had already been developed for the Strike Eagle. Mainly by installing a GPS unit into the targeting pod, which allowed them to dispense with the second navigation pod. I think the money thing basically came down to a choice between a targeting pod and AMRAAM - there wasn't enough funding for both (sadly). There's an episode on the "Tomcast" series on youtube about LANTIRN, where they had on one of the guys involved in the technical side of integrating the pod, might be the one you're thinking of
Yes. The Tomcat actually did not have any Air-to-Ground capability until they were refitted in the '90s
@@zockersau2 It did, though. The F-14 was designed from scratch with a strike capability as it was supposed to serve with the Marines too. This never materialized and the Navy had no reason to turn its sole superfighter to a strike platform when it had the awesome A-6/A-7 combo. USN F-14 units were FAD/AS-oriented with tactical reconnaissance being the only secondary role until the early to mid-90s. The Iranians were the first to utilise the strike capability of the F-14 in combat, IIRC.
@@180791sanguinius From my understanding, the F-14 was then retired because the USN had enough Super Hornets that could fly further and do just as good as the F-14 is ground striking capabilities, and with no need for a dedicated interceptor, it’s usefulness ran out. Too expensive operating cost for not enough utility in return.
24:26 They really gotta reduce the first gen jets repair cost. For example, the F2 sabre constantly got uptiered to 9.7 but you got no countermeasure other than maneuver and have to pay 20k repair cost if you die...
Repair cost ruin the fun completly... So man many just camping or not spawn to defend the spawn and leaving..m
My dad was a corpsman during the 1990s and early 2000s when the F-14s were still in service. He said that he used to watch the Tomcats take off all the time from the Roosevelt, along with the EA-6B Prowler and many other amazing aircrafts. He did say that the F-14 did take bombs once in a while to drop on Iraq(I think Iraq). I’m unsure on how often they used dumb bombs and on which variant of the F-14 my dad saw use it.
The F-14D carried PGM iron nearly - if not absolutely - exclusively. Not many unguided munitions being hung anymore.
The M1 Abrams is known ss the Whisper Death because its so quiet.
Reason is that the noise from its turbine does not travel far at all so Abrams crews often sneak up on everyone. Cause you expect that 70 tones of unhealth care to be loud.
Its not, not at all. The Tracks make more noise then the engine.
Tomcat was very successful at ground-pounding in Afghanistan and Iraq, and in the Balkans, thanks to adapting the LANTIRN pod to the platform ... mainly Bs and Ds, but As had some capability with the pod also.
As a 20 vet on tanks, yes the Abrams is very quiet compared to other tracks. The high pitch whine of the turbine doesn’t carry like diesels. I’ve snuck up on many people in exercises.
Almost been ran over by sneaky Abrams on several occasions
A few years ago, before covid and when i still had a job and therefore a bit of money to spend, i bought one of those headlamps for my dad for fathers day. He still says it's the best fathersday gift he ever got. I'm so glad i saw it and thought to myself that this'd make a great one. Still uses it every day.
Urgh, that job situation sucks... I hope things get better for you soon
@@alanhoff89 well we moved to a new town recently, and once all the current home-fixing work is done gonna dive back into job-hunting once again.
Get a job literally every place is hiring.
Hey, wish you luck on that job hunt. If it’s any consolation, it’s hard for everyone right now. Take care of yourself, you’ll make it through this. Best wishes
The comment you made about the AGM-88, would bring some balance to the AA bc they wouldn't have their radar online all the time anymore. They would want to get visual or auditory confirmation before popping radar. So coming in with CAS with engines off, like what you did with the A-10, would have the potential to become incredibly effective
Hey Phly, I was watching a chat with the Chieftain, and he said he snuck up behind a soldier in a city in Iraq, and got 10m away before he noticed his Abrams...
I think they are quieter than we thought....
I would love an air mode without markers. The markers are why I pretty much only fly out in GRB. Of course the massive expanse of air maps would be a problem with no markers, but if there was some kind of objective that got everyone into a close enough vicinity then that might help that issue.
Like maybe have it that strike aircraft get a high RP and SL payout for taking out AI ground targets, and that would incentivise fighters to attack the strike aircraft, and protect their own ground units as well as fight off other fighters. Or maybe even have it that one side has a ground force and their job is to protect it, and the other teams objective is to wipe it out to win.
Either way I think air RB definitely needs a refresher.
There is air SB
Abrams, fire in the engine compartment, most of the crew dead, screaming for a little bitty fire extinguisher from a neighboring tank crew: "No, no, take your time. Take your time."
Fun fact! The Abrams and leopard’s engines both make the same amount of noise. It’s just that the frequency of the sound made my the Abram’s turbine engine is much higher which means it can be distinguished more from the environment and it can travel further.
?? im sure lower frequencies travel further
I think you got it wrong. Abrams' turbine engine has a higher frequency. And higher frequency sound doesn't go very far.
The Tomcat has the score for dropping very accurate conventional bombs. Not just better then F-18, even better then F-15E and A-10. Has something to do with platform stability and the targeting computer.
Nobody really cared because guided munitions was the way to go
You know it's warthunder when an Abrams shows up for d-day
That gauge next to the top left of the VDI is your airspeed. At high speeds the dial reads mach and has a small IAS ticker in the corner. But at low speeds the dial reads IAS. To the left of the HUD there’s a landing speed indicator. If it points up you’re going too slow and vice versa. Below that there’s a big AOA indicator. You want that to be around 15 for the tail hook to catch.
You sound like you know your sh*t I've been grinding hard on usa an I'm rank 4 what are the best 3 planes to have
One time in 29 palms some tankers drove up near our mortar position and wanted to drop some. We made a deal that some of us got to drive their Abrams. They definitely got the short end of the stick.
The F-14 while was able to carry ground ordinance it was principled designed for two roles for the Navy which was fleet defender and air superiority fighter. The bombcat term came later when they stuck a targeting pod and trained the pilots on how to drop bombs.
Phly video 10 months ago: F-14 Bombcat
Warthunder Devblog 5 days ago: Devblog the Bombcat
The amount of joy Phly is getting from this F14 is just priceless 😭 😂
The Abrams is quiet in real life compared to other tanks due to the turbine engine. Used way more fuel but much quieter compared to Diesel engine tanks
Ripple isnt used for missiles, its a term for releasing bombs or rockets in quick succession. Fox 1 is for semi active radar guided missiles, fox 2 is for heat seaking missiles and fox 3 is for active radar guided missiles. There used to be fox 4 as well for guns, but now they just say guns. The Phoenix missile uses a doppler radar guiding system. Doppler radars can only see things that are moving away or towards them. Im not sure if that is modeled in game, but if it is, all you need to do to avoid the missile is fly horizontal to the direction its heading. No flare or chaff required.
Too close I’m switching to guns
The M1 is very quiet. If it's not moving with the engine on the loudest thing is the turret traverse break, which is pretty loud, and if it's moving the loudest thing is the track noise, you'll hear the clunk clunk clunk, click from the front long before you hear the engine. From the rear it's much louder but how often does that happen.
The low fps glitch was seen a few times during this video. Makes me happy to know I'm not the only one experiencing that. It happens just for a second, but it's noticeable.
Gaijin every patch be like: balanced, as all things should be
Attempt 339:
Play the forgotten Mig-9 and show everyone the power of the original 37MM/23MM Vodka launcher Jet.
the low Tier Armored Cars and such also got new engine sounds with the AS 42 AA from Italy doing racecar exaust pops its great.
Now you gotta put together a final countdown lobby of a couple of F-14's and a swarm of zero's.
In the years when the B cat was still in service, it was actually used in strike roles more than the hornet was!
The bug was probably not used for strike missions because of how slow and sluggish it is when loaded, the cat still maintained it's high TWR even with more payload.
"Abrams engine is so..sexy"

I remember someone comparing diesel and gas turbines engines in tanks
And if I remember correctly the gas turbine is alot more quiet than the diesel
I’m so glad to have been here watching this channel for as long as I have. And watching little banks grow
No F14 was interceptor from the start. In the 90s after Desert Storm I controlled them in some of their first bombing missions they did ok. I was an AF TACP
It’s not just the abrahms engine that sounds great, all the tanks do. The first game I played after this new update I thought somebody was revving their engine outside my house
Phly, after you use the new vehicles, you should try the a4b and/or the a4e for CAS, its armament is quite fun to use at its tier.
Abrams are pretty damn quiet for a tank. Much quieter than diesels. On paved roads the tracks make way more than the engine.
F-14A had the ability to carry up to 18 Mk 82 bombs ... but in game it can only carry 14, what's up with that?

Hey Phly!
Well I know you are gonna be very busy with all the new vehicles and updated vehicles, but, if you wanna play something just a bit different once things slow down…
You should check out the Italian C13 T90!
It was the vehicle that got me my phirst nuke, and I’d like to see it and the ABUL/74 (specifically the 90mm) on the channel!
The combo means in any terrain you can get to a sneaky spot, and scout phor tons of SP!
(Day 91)
(But play the Hawk III first)
phly as a tracked mechanic in the army I can tell you personally the abrams is not quiet its not nearly as loud as it used to be in game but if you have buildings between you and it when its idiling it isn't that loud but when you next to it you cant hear shit, they still haven't gotten the sound right when it comes to rpms its revs way higher than the sound does in came but they're getting there
Imagine in the battle of midway some F-14 landing on some tiny WW2 Carrier asking for more Bombs and AIM-54. With how close in formations Fighers in WW2 were flying, one Aim should be able to kill atleas 5-6
that cat broke after it sent you off that deck also warthunder should put in the b variant as a premium
Yeah, there was a veresion/upgrade, called the Super Tomcat 21 plus. This essentialy turned the f-14 into an F-15E strike eagle, with more missiles, built in lantern pod, ground track radar, more fuel, better engines... Yeah, it was a full upgrade package.
The RIO got more jobs, becoming the EW officer and Bombedeer. Navy decided it was to expensive to upgrade them, and just went with the F-18 E/F
They did build 1 or 2
@@cristobalalvarez5491 I think it was like 4 demonstrators of the 21 plus, and 2 of the ASF-14 (advanced strike fighter) but the AST was only a marginal improvement over the 21 plus, so that one was a total no go.
F110-GE-429 turbofan engines. This 29K pound thrust class engine, a modification of the same variant found in later block F-16s and now some Strike Eagle derivatives, albeit with a longer exhaust pipe tailored to the Tomcat, would give the ST21 supercruise performance (>Mach 1 without the use of gas-guzzling afterburner) while carrying a relevant air-to-air loadout. Some state M1.2-1.4 supercruise would have been possible.
Enlarged and recontoured leading-edge gloves with an additional 2,200lbs of fuel storage each.
Underfuselage-mounted Ford Aerospace (now Lockheed Martin) Night Owl targeting pod/FLIR and navigation pod.
Single-piece windscreen for enhanced visibility.
Wide-angle raster-scan HUD capable of projecting FLIR imagery.
Glass cockpit. New mission computers and graphics processors.
On-Board Oxygen Generations System (OBOGS)
AN/APG-71 radar with additional upgrades ported over from the AN/APG-70 used on the F-15E. Expanded range and capabilities over the original AN/APG-71 in F-14D, which itself was an outgrowth of the AWG-9.
Digital Flight Control System (DFCS).
Wet wing pylons capable of carrying 300-gallon external tanks.
Ability to carry 425-gallon external tanks on nacelle hardpoints if it was developed. Existing tank size 280 gallons.
Larger multi-segmented fowler-flaps.
Enlarged and extended slats on wing leading-edge.
Bring-back to ship capacity increased from 9k lbs to 16k lbs.
Reduced approach speed and better slow-speed control.
Integration of latest standoff weaponry, as well as AIM-120 AMRAAM.
Upgraded AN/ALE-47 countermeasures dispenser. Integration of the BOL countermeasures dispensers into the outboard pylons as a mission configuration option.
Add to that -
A variant of the AN/APG-63(V)3 used by the Eagle, with enhanced multi-mode capabilities, just like the AN/APG-82 but with a much larger antenna array
AN/APX-111(V) "pizza box" identification friend or foe (IFF)
Sniper Advanced Targeting Pod
Expanded AN/ALE-47 EW suit
and a ton of other upgrade. The thing would have been a BEAST. Not a dog fighter in the slightest but in BVR combat it would be carrying up to 4 phoenixes, 4 amrams, and 4 sidewinders.
The ability to lift 6 harpoons for anti-ship attacks, it essentially carried 50% more load then the F-18 E/F.
@@jenniferstewarts4851 so they could add the super 21
@@cristobalalvarez5491 no it was never built, only proposals not sure where this guy found that ST 21 and ASF tomcats are built because they were never a thing, only in plans
@@cristobalalvarez5491 Incorrect. Only scale models were built.
I'm pretty sure it wasn't designed for bombing. it was a navy interceptor. hence the radar and Phoenix. It became a bomber as it was being phased out. (Iran and money problems I believe) the tomcat definitely has the same accuracy of the F-18 because they both have CCIP bomb modes and both have targeting pods.
Before the targeting pod was active on the f14 they were not allowed to fly unguided bomb sorties as they would often over shoot the target by a lot and was a liability. But yeah later down the road they got the LANTIRN pod and were quite capable in ground attack and could even designate targets for f18s.
The f14 seemed to have lost its funding due to personal political interests as Dick Cheney seemed to dislike Grumman. Even canceling the F-111 development. Canceling the f14 has left a huge gap in our navy's ability in air to air and interception fleet defense. But i guess air superiority hasn't been needed anyway.
Eh, if you look at the Navy request that started the Project, it was intended to have ground attack capability. It's mission was much broader, ranging from Fleet Air Defense to escorting attack aircraft to dropping air to ground stuff.
@@brandonclark435 Dick Cheney single handedly put Grumman out of business pretty much. Grumman came up with two different proposals for upgraded f14s that would have filled the role perfectly. The first was the quick strike platform that was just upgrading the existing platform, They said it wasn't enough and the platform was "1960s technology" pretty much a lame excuse because any of it's problems could have easily been addressed and fixed by Grumman. So the next proposal was the super tomcat 21and was a totally redesigned new airframe, and that proposal was too much this time.
It's known across the navy and military leaders that the retiring of the tomcat left a void in it's effectiveness in fleet defense.
The f18 lost to the f16 for the air force role. It was too slow. Non afterburner Cruse was only 600nmph and it's range was very poor. Then compared to the f14, the f14 was faster and more agile in every aspect with a much greater range. It was obviously cheaper on the other hand.
Only with the addition of the super hornet did we get the range back. But they effectively were mainly used as an air refueling role for the normal hornet because of it's poor range.
But hey it paid off not funding a new naval interceptor because it hasn't been needed luckily.
Grumman always intended the F-14 to be a multi-role fighter as well as a fleet defence interceptor, they even wired all the Tomcats for air-to-ground from the start. The only reason it didn't happen for so long is that the Navy didn't want/need to spend the time and money developing the capability, since they already had several attack jets on deck (A-4, A-6, A-7 and the F-4), plus they wanted the F-14 to focus on fleet air defence as it was a fairly significant step-up from the F-4
@@uninvestigated Yep, Northrup and Grumman we're hated by the establishment. Vought as well.
I love how he talks about how this or that sounds but has the game sounds so low you can't hear anything lol.
fun fact, it was actualy showing at cockpit that you had bad approach to the carrier!
Hey phly there is a new centurion sound. It sounds deeper when you are in gunner mode also it’s quieter outside.
I dunno about the AGM-88 but I know versions of the AGM-78 had a memory thing that made turning off the radar not viable anymore. The missile would remember where the radar signature was and home in on the last known location
Yea but theyre spaag not a fixed sam site they can move
phly's joy when the phoenix splashes brings me joy.
Nice to see a cameo by one of the TBLF boys in the harrier. I watch Bo time gaming as well as your channel
Time stamp?
23:20
It was lord warspite
11:40 i mean that is pretty much what happened in top gun LOL
Once the A-6 retired the F-14 became the primary attack bird for the USN. It could carry more ordnance, further, and faster than the F-18.
Phly you gotta try the type 93 gaijin gave it the loudest sounding V8 ever even though it has an Inline 4
I’d suggest watching a DCS Case 1 carrier landing tutorial video, then trying that in War Thunder.
Start your carrier approach at around 600-800 feet, not 2,000. 😂
Phly's glide slope is a squirrel falling out of a tree
@@deanbarrett7180 indeed. That would rip the gear off even a navy aircraft!
Killer flank Phly! Keep it up brother.
Hey Phly, Im thinking of suggesting the NR-349 Retaliator interceptor variant of the RA-5C Vigilante. It was projected to have Mach 2.5 speeds and it was supposed to carry 6 AIM-54s. It is a paper-ish vehicle but I think it would be fun and I mean we have the E-100, the Maus, and so many other Wunderwaffes not just from Germany. And It would probably go after the F-4E in the tech tree.
I always wanted Air RB without the markers. It would be like sim, but you could still see teammates and weren't trapped in the cockpit.

Gotta thank that turms for the epic save and sacrifice
HARM could be useless or useful. AARGM would dominate because it can remember the position of where the radar was.
Back to back post this is a great weekend!!
Yes, you have AIM-54 Phoenix missiles, but the others I see are AIM-9 sidewinders, not AIM-7 Sparrows.
Happy Fathers Day Phly! Hope it was a great one. Love your videos, best part of my day!
Ordered my kid the Purple and pink Tomcat flipping the bird tshirt for his birthday, he said the Colors look awesome like a sunset.
8:36 Yes and no. I honestly don't get how they define the ammo sp cost. For example it costs a fortune for me to bring air target belts for my 20mm in the Me410 in ground rb. At the same time the ground target belts for the 20mm on my F8F which are exeptionally strong are completely free.....
*enemy cas spawns in* f14:"I can smell you"

Been playing this game for 6 years, vehicle combat can be both extremely fun and challenging with lots of depth unlike things such as r6s, in my opinion. Hope you have fun :)

Hahaha the laughter in the beginning made my day😂😂😂😂
I wish there was a mode where the map itself was spread out more like a whole air rb map you can fight pvp on.(ground)
The timing of this video immediately after watching Top Gun Maverick
Phly I remember reading somewhere that the Tomcat would never come to WT as they wouldn't be able to model the weapon systems to a level of accuracy...I remember think to myself that's funny because it's a computer system and it shouldn't be much of an issue...maybe they were thinking a weapon like the Phoenix missile wouldn't fit the meta therefore it wouldn't make it into the game....well I am glad they were wrong and I love how much joy it brings to you to engage multiple targets from pretty much beyond their visual range. They don't make em like they used to that's phor sure. Big PH for airframes from the 60's-70's hopefully the F-15 and F-16's will be coming sometime in a future patch.
this was 10 months ago and this update we will be getting f-14b bombcat NICE
barely a week after the f14 was added to the game and phlys already making cursed stuff
Real jets would actually come in to land on full burn when landing on a Carrier.
This is so if they miss the wires they can just take back off. The wires and hook are designed with this in mind.
Also the F-14 was just a fighter not a Strike FIghter the F/A 18 is a Strike Fighter.
