  • The F-104C is essentially an F-104A, but with some CAS capability. Is it worth purchasing and grinding? I go over what you need to know in this episode of Stock to Spaded.

    You forgot one thing. This chipotle pencil with extra spicy it can do his job as a bomber hunter in SIM.
    It is pretty fun!

    One thing that bugs me with the stock to spaded series is that sometimes you choose mods in rank 4 without having the sufficient mods in previous ranks, which can impact the review

      Ummm, 😂 he unlocks the mods as available and as he sees fit, I'm sure you don't get all tier 1 before you move to tier 2 items and tier 3 weapons when able to research....

      @@rastaboy_gamesnstuff7778That was NOT the point of the comment, the point was that he did not have the mods that he NEEDED to unlock the next one, (let's take aim 7fs on the f14a before the phoenix as an example.) So you can stop with your 😂

    A point of clarification; the RWR on this thing, while nice to have, does not help against mig-21s with R-3Rs. The RWR works with E, G, and I bands whereas the R-3R works in J. It's a recurring problem with US RWRs by and large facing Russian radars unfortunately, it's very frustrating. Luckily this problem goes away at higher brs.

    Old fighter pilot saying.. "You meet a better class of fighter pilots in the vertical.." Actual IRL FP phrse too. Vertical turns are actually superior to horizontal ones but with newer jets that have good missiles and more then their weight in thrust I don't know if doing that to one is a good idea !😅

    G'day Tankenstein,
    Hm Ohh how I wish they would do just an update for all the Starfighters in which they got either BR changes or historical weaponry additions or both.
    From what I've read this C model "could" itself with two extra AIM-9B missiles & iirc a M118 3000lb bomb for lolz.
    I still think this thing should've stayed 9.7 as at 9.3 it's just evil in ARB at the current time if all the stars aline in a match.

    I love my f-104c. Flying supersonic 30ft above the deck on my way to drop the BLU-1 incendiary then turning around and looking for unaware A-10's is my bread and butter.

    If only they gave it the same 9.3 BR in Arcade. 9.7 putting it against 11.0 planes and the missiles they carry was pain.

    Yesterday spaded it, it's awesome if you just always remember never to turn with it in combat. Zoom and Boom 💥
    Edit: one good Tip I missed so far: turn off ur Radar if you don't need it. Otherwise some enemies will be aware that u're there because their RWR will tell em. 😉

      yeah most ariete players have a few braincells to spare, at least as far as premiums go, i can imagine it's probably scary if one goes unspotted, sometimes i feel bad one-circling F3H's and blowing a wing off with 4 rounds holding twice his speed lol

    Only two likes after two minutes? Fell off ngl. For real now, i enjoy f-104c cause its basically a variant with rockets which give you capability to use makeshift flares, which makes this plane even more broken
