Winning on Spitfires
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 вер 2024
- There were a lot of legendary aircraft designed in the the 1930s of the previous century. Aircraft created during that decade quickly became the mainstays of the air forces of their respective countries. They were used till the very end of the Second World War - and their late variants formed the pantheon of the best piston engine aircraft ever made. Today we’re going to speak about one of those iconic designs - the numerous marks of the Spitfire, the winged knights that guarded the skies of the British Empire.

#WarThunder
Whatever you say, when looking at all the exported Spitfires, you would notice why many of them is the Mk. IX... . The thing is just unspeakably spectacular
It wasn’t well liked
@@BARelement many ww2 pilots said that out of all the spitfire models they flew they liked the mk.IX the most
@@BARelement It seems to have been? Can you give a source for that? I aware that soviet pilots didn’t like the mkV but they still accepted a load of MkIXs
@@ImTrashOnPurpose Not what I’m saying. In general the spitfire wasn’t liked primarily by the Soviets. Who preferred the cobras over the spitfires of any mark which were used and not great quality to begin with.
@@imperialinquisition6006 Spitfires were high altitude fighters, eastern front was rather low altitude oriented. Also, spits were rather delicate, which wasn't suitable to the crude condition
The most elegant of the WW2 fighters. The design, sound, performance, and history all play into its legendary status.
I'm a fan of the Jug personally - can slap and can take a hit too....there was a guy who flew his Thunderbolt all the way back to his airfield (successfully) while missing half a wing
just goes to show you some fighters built differently AND even the American pilots would say they'd rather fly the P-47s over the P-51s because of the durability of the Jugs compared to the Mustangs...Not a fan of the P-51s....even more so not a fan of The Cruise (Tom Cruise)

@@hemekI agree. Theres a quote somewhere saying that “If you wanna look good in the picture you fly the P-51 Mustang, if you wanna come home you fly the P-47 Thunderbolt.
Why do I think spitfire would be the perfect song for this...
Lol
🎶 SPITFIRE! 🎶

It's copyrighted and gaijin doesn't want to deal with that, just like f14 trailer is synced to dainger zone, yet in the trailer different music plays
UA-cam would instantly copyright them
U call it a spitfire I call it:
The queens royal flying horseless car
LOL
Yet it create a lot of horsepower
My favorite is the premium Spitfire Mk XIVc. The small early spitfire airframe coupled with a strong griffon engine makes it an excellent fighter in terms of low speed turn fights.
Yeah, same for me but it's a shame that the 3D model isn't made properly in game.
Check out the seafire 47
Has proper griffon 88

Spitfire LF Mk.IX is my favourite because of its climb rate and guns and maneuverability and my second favourite would be the mk24
5:24 ah yes, the famous Spitfire Mk 11
That's an unarmed Photo-recon variant of the Mk.IX lmao, imagine that in game
@@fury4539 okay chaps i see a jerrys feline near the a point
Hi smigol
@@fury4539 Well. It would work now. It could be like spy drone in top tier but in low tier. It could scout targets.
@@TaikaviittaX or even the photo-recon Mossie, that beast did 485mph at max speed.
I never knew that a spitfire can be faster than some early jets
well you know now
@@Bathi_wt im an F4-E
@@mcdonneldouglasf-4ephantom541 you spelt McDonnell wrong in your name
it was specifically designed for intercepting V-1s
IX = 9
XI = 11
Big woops there my guy.
gzaye?
The Mk XIVc is probably my favorite. It maintains fluid maneuverability because of its lighter airframe than the XIVe that eventually went into production, but also packs the famed Griffon engine, making it wildly more flexible than its other Griffon counterparts (except in a dive of course). In-game, it retains a low enough BR that it doesn't have to get dunked on by jets.
Spitfire is my absolute favorite plane family. I love every single one variant, but if I had to choose some favorites, I'd say:
- IIb for its excellent performance and firepower compared to competitors. In proper hands it can obliterate enemy team.
- Vc/trop because of its firepower allowing it to destroy any enemy in half a second and filters allowing it to operate in Africa without issues.
- all LF IX variants, but especially Plagis premium - thanks to older armament of 4 7,7s and 2 20mms it's a bit lighter and more maneuverable than other variants with .50cals and MG ammo lasts for longer, so you can effectively destroy more planes than with default 2 .50cals and 2 20mms, even tho it's theoretically weaker.
- XVI for its cool cut wing look (let's be real, all Spitfires look awesome, but this one is just dope).
- 24 for its powerful engine and decent CAS capabilities, allowing it to strike any target (air or ground) fast and suddenly and get away quick from AA fire.
In short, there's Spitfire for everyone in this game and on every tier there's at least one exceptional variant, which excels in any situation. Of course, these planes are easy to fly, but that doesn't mean any dumbass can instantly get 10 kills without thinking. But if someone can think while flying, Spitfire rewards it more than most planes in game.
Thank you for doing a video of my number 1 favorite plane. The Spitfire
Imagine being uptiered to 8.0 on last spitfire XD
It happens a lot, but its still fun
My favourite Spitfire is the mkXVI. It just looks cool and also, everything go boom
The mk XVI and mk IX are visually identical, the only real differences were the Packard Merlin in the XVI and and sometimes (but not always) wing armament. They were built side by side and had the same type number (Supermarine type 631). Unfortunately there are ( I think) only 2 mk IX bubble canopy airframes in existence , and they are in museums, so when we see a flying mk IX type airframe with a bubble canopy we know it is a mk XVI - not by how it looks visually, but by the fact that the only surviving flying airframes of this type are mk XVIs. Like you said though, they do look cool!
Merlin spitfire magic number.
Set radiator to 100% until climb is finished then go for 45%
117% mixture bellow 1k, 107%-103% mixture bellow 2k, 97% mixture bellow 3k, 87% mixture bellow 4k, 77% above 4500m.
Prop pitch: 85% for speed and energy fighting.
100% for turn and climb.
Climb at 26 degree at 200kph and u will out climb anything in a MK VC up to 3400m (10000ft)
Best way to force people to fight you if you didn't manage to outclimb them is to let them chase you then pull them down bellow 3k. Roll and zig zag until they outdive you. Once that happen its pretty easy to adjust for the final killing blow.
Beside that ALWAYS check your mixture/alt set, even in a fight. Spitfire lose a lot of performance because gaijin auto pilot on mouse aim set their mixture to 70 and prop pitch 60. With manual engine control you can outclimb and out turn anything in a dime.
Last note for max ammo conservation+damage its good practice to only fire when you can see the enemy plane colour without zoom. Turn off your range indicator as that rule means smaller planes take closer distance to see colour.
I just started the spitfire line, been enjoying it so far.
Just a thing, at 4:59 the narrator says "LF MK.11" when its the LF MK9. IX = 9 XI = 11
Yeah I think he got the counting for Roman numerals mixed up
IX = 9
XI = 11
Ah yes the Spitfire LF IX which apparently is now 11, rather than 9. Didn't know Gaijin redefined the roman numeral system
For me the XIVe is the perfect mixture of both worlds.
It's Griffon Spitfire that retains good manuverability, without much sacrifice, other than climb rate, which is already abysmal enough that it doesn't really matter. It flies well, it's shots hurt, that's enough for it to be a good plane, it also doesn't suffer from being uptiered to 7.0 and up, having to face jets that not even other jets can catch up to (F-84B nerf pls)
Have you messed with seafire 47

@@МаксимЕрмаков-х4п lol how extremist. Werent those outdated. Ill nibble the trollic somes.
My Favourite Spitfire is the Mk 24 Griffin. I love the Griffins.
:)
You fully made a video reading the Romans numerals for 9 as 11 on those spits.
Thanks for uploading a video of my favorite plane, the mk IIb version is my favorite because it is very maneuverable and well armed, I have already scored many kills with it.
But I want to buy the Israeli premium spitfire because I think it has a lot to offer me, I would like to see if people recommend buying it.
Postscript: Please gaijin, don't nerf him as usual :.(
Its very good, especially for CAS. if you can score a hit with one of those rockets, they are definitely gonna die :)
You can just get it in the British tree for free it's the same plane
Where is the teaser?
Tomorrow at this point
got a question-Why is the spitfire so unstable and hard to maneuver in simulator battles, compared to the other fighters? Didn't the pilots say, it was so easy to fly?
Bcs something is easy to fly it's doesn't mean it's easy maneuverable.
@@vida2559 well, spitfire was allegedly outmaneuvering anything, germans send at the britain.
Its sensitive on control don't pull full stick on start of pull, start only with 1/3 to 1/2 pull and pull more only to adjust quickly the fins on spitfire go 90 degree which is basicly flat as an airbreak but it allow for hard turn if done correctly.
At 5:01 aren’t those Lf mk 9 not mk11?
Edit: moved the timestamp slightly to better line up
If it’s not a merlin spitfire, it’s not a real spitfire
any spitfires do emotional damage to any players that cant turn fight
my favourite spitfire in-game is the Mk.VB/trop as it is at the same br as the IIb and is better in every way
Ah, yes the Spits elegant machines
I recently started my british tech tree, i fell in love with the Spitfires and i'm only on the MkIIb
My favorite spitfire is Spitfire Mk Vc now called Mk Vc/Trop, when british 20mms had stealth air target shells ♥
Try to put the landing flaps at 450 kph it doesn't break that make it the best spitfire in turn fight
@@hel9941 I used to play them in 2016/2017, today air battles are unbearable. But in those times i used to fly spitfire for 5-6 hours per day.
@@hel9941 sshh thats a secret don't let the snail fix it.
@@Errorcutive The snail have many other problems to solve... I hope so much he does nothing about it
The Float carburetor let's most of them down
They fixed that issue one the mk Vs and onward
it's really not even that big of a deal. its greatest weaknesses were range and temperamental nature (any damage or poor construction on the wings, for example, would disproportionately affect the Spitfire compared to most other fighters). range isn't really a big deal in War Thunder though.
The Mk IX B or C along The MK 24 are mi favs Spitfires up in the air
Do you guys make the gameplay used in the video or do you guys use people's replays that was sent for thunder show?
It would be interesting if you guys did use people's replays
My favourite one has to be the Spitfire Mk.24 griffon, the king of all spitfires I call it🗿
I personally like the first group of spitfires. It’s maybe because it’s the only one I have.
Mark 11? Dude got his Romans flipped i guess 😅 i would get dizzy too with this many variants. Kinda ironic that we have the same with Porsches nowadays
My favorite Spitfire is the see for your mark 14
Spits are my favorite planes and I really like the early ones up to Mk V
My favourite spitfire has to be the F Mk IX, just an absolute wonder. (also I once managed to fail a float carburetor on it despite is supposedly fixing that)
F Mk.IX has a Merlin 61, while Injection carburettors were implemented since Merlin 66 found in LF Mk.IX and Mk.XVI (266 for Packard-manufactured Merlins)
@@MDzmitry I gave up on spitfires really, my starter jet ended up being the vampire (help)
@@asdfkoipn well, I personally switched to Spits primarily because Yaks and 109s got a bit too easy with all the energy fighting, and 190/P-47 railway gameplay felt boring
I did not like to fly Spita which i have now. Its a very unstable and hard to trim gun platform(early versions), completely different to flying in WT in comparision to Spits from IL2 1946. Maybe i will fly them better in Griffon engine versions. Btw, Spits MK1 used in french campaign over Dunkirk used a 87 octane fuel , theirs flight characteristics were inferior to Bf109E. After start Battle of Britain a 100octane fuel was used , from this moment Spits get speed equal with Messershmidt's. Additionally three blade, constant speed prop with variable pitch makes plane better than previous two blade constant pitch propeller.
me with my Fw-190 A 👁👄👁
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Way too many Spits are overtiered
All Griffons should have access to 150 octane fuel
as a Mk. XVIIIe player I agree, I really want to dink that high octane fuel with cereal in the morning
nah, then German and American pilots would "suffer" more than they already do
I like all Spitfires, they are perfect planes for new players to learn Arts of Flying, but my love are Spitfires with some Hispano power, with that 20 mm almost every fighter is one tap.
F Mk IX and LF Mk IX are definitely my favourites they sit at lower battle atings than they should
Forgot the thumbnail?
I saw a spitfire yesterday
And an aircraft carrier.
Spitfire LF Mk IX and spitfire mk Ix 👌
All of them❤
Nobody asked for drones, I mean this with respect to you as creators, we don’t care about drones, it’s called ground battles and it is currently the furthest thing away from ground battles, you’re not even thinking of the gameplay aspect by adding these drones in
My Favorite Spitfire is the MK2B
Mk ix and XIV is my favourites. I love spitfires
hmmm yes spitfire at 7.0
And then a Yak comes in and slaps you with a desynced 23mm
LF Mk 9 is my favourite.
ah yes, peashooter
Spitfire's bane of my existence
could a make a video of all the variants of the mustang next
This is content you wont get from any other games! TOP NOTCH!
Yeah the famous spitfire mark eleven XI😂 5:01
Was the intro song composed in-house at Gaijin? If not I'd like to know the name, it sounds sick.
FOUND IT: "Graduation Day" - Alec Koff
pls warthunder pls reduce the repair cost on top tear jets. the games are to fast, it's impossible to get the money for the repair cus the number of kills are limited, most players can't even get a kill per game, and most of them die before the batle ends, so pls gaijin help us :(
p.s. the modifications and the plane it self are super costly and we can't meet the requirements with this upquep costs. help us have fun in u'r game, pls. I realy love it.
0:27 I really wish they would have said, "But today , were.."
The best spitfire IMO is the Re2005
Waiting for Re.2006
@@ettoreolivero7433 Re.2006 won't be added to the game.
According to a mod, the Re.2006 does not meet the criteria required to enter the game since 2019. (sadly)
That criteria is: gaijin no longer adds planes/prototypes that never flew (again sadly).
The Re.2006 for example was built but never flew.
@@focka. bruh, they just at M6A2E1 for battle pass last season, it has fake armor stat. And even Me-262 HG 2 got pass to put it in game.
@@Rururudenko M6A2-E1 was a working prototype that never saw combat
@@destroyerarmor2846 yes , it has new turret but no new hull.
I like the Spitfire mk 9
Aaaaand this is why you should never mess with a spitfire...
The mrk la is good with stealth belts
Can we have the Supermarine Spiteful in game plz?
Spitfires are fun but man... British hispanos...
Hispanos slap
They are good
they used to be hisparkos but now they are good
hispanos do great damage
@@djyppo before the buff it was so much pain to use them...
I think I might be wrong here but you should check out how roman numerals work IX=9 not 11 (5:02)
can you modify all of the rank 2 spitfire with a better engine please ?
Rank 3 triathlon please
When?
Team gaijin, a feature proposed by the community is the optional removal of the ground vehicles side skirt, what are your thoughts on it?
Mk. IIb Classic Spitfire.
because there are very competitive
Where do I find the mark eleven in the tech tree?
My favorite is the LF-mk-IX-c
When is the Supermarine Seafang coming
Cool
Personally I still favor my German Me 262 I only recently started my British branch and spitfires are a lot of fun so idk I might add it to my list lol
Question here are you guys going to update your Spotify ost's?
Please, switch on subtitles!

Maaaaaaaaan when Teaser????????????????????? GIVE ME!!!! I WANT!!!!!
Can you write full email to thunder show?
The ultimate hit and crit experience I’ve been told…nerfed to oblivion compared to when they were first introduced into the game… mk24 at BR7.0 doesn’t sound like fun
Why did you nerf the wirblewind by 20mm less pen, please can you give it the original better pen back, it is the only good germasn spaa until about 6.7, so gaijin please can you fix this and give it the old pen back pls
It was op as hell, the nerf is good stop crying german main
Around minute 5 Mk IX has been misspoken as Mk XI
Best is the 2b it's cheap and fun
has anyone got any advice for playing the Mk Vc, I always seem to get swagged on by planes much higher than me. How do you play them
