The A2D-1 is one of those things that never bothers me normally, and when i do go bother it, it's because i have a massive advantage and just dunks on it immediately. Never have i ever fought it properly.
Because most a2d1 players mindlessly base rush, when instead, using your brain, you have a great climb rate and an air spawn, just energy trap and always stay climbing, love using this thing as a fighter Yes I know it’s a ground attacker but just saying from a fighter perspective,
@@thatoneguy1741 the player that use that thing correctly dont play air rb with it, but ground rb. there its a menace for the enemy team, that can decide the whole match in the right hands (and some things going right)
I had a 1/24th scale of the A1 Skyraider (I called him the brute). It's the first time I heard of the A2. The A2, then is like Hybrids - not quite gas, not quite electric. Your strategy reminds me of how you flew the Harrier. Great lesson in offensive and defensive strategies, and sit awareness, which is a great strength you have Defyn. You make great tutorial vids. Looking for more. Cheers!
Watching DEFYN videos makes me realise how broken having better G tolerance is on your pilots. I bet I would’ve G-LOC’d my pilot on basically all of these manoeuvres
It really is kind of ridiculous because it’s so expensive to upgrade crew qualification on higher tier planes even just to expert when it provides you so much of an advantage
14:01 this is true. The MiG-19 that fought me in my F4D Skyray learned that the hard way. No matter what he tried I stayed inside his turning circle because the plane that looks like the UFO also performs like one. I never had the energy advantage at one point in that fight, but I just nullified his. And that’s why I love that plane.
Started playing this thing alot more ever since I saw this video. It's actually fun to play! My only gripe is how sensitive the flaps are. This thing, if you play your cards right, can just barely hold it's own against a Spitfire.
im a big fan of airbrake turns, a lot of even experienced pilots are not prepared in the slightest for a prop to drop speed and pull a super tight turn
I wont lie ive been having issues with my pc for a hot minute and that lag around 9:10 really had me thinking it was crashing again. I'll take a lag spike on a video any day instead my pc crashing XD.
Great video like usual. Have you ever thought of doing a Q&A video at some point? I think it would be a pretty cool way for you to connect with the community even more (if you want to do them lol)
Thanks DEFYN I am the J7w who ask for the video for a2d in the fight of Golan heights. I wish I could have a 1 versus 1 and become a victim in the video but that mustang did not give me a chance 😢
I believe it's best to think of the A2D not as a prop plane, but as a jet whose designer snorted fifty pounds of crack and proceded to take an obese Skyraider and attempt to turn it into a space ship from Star Wars. You can outturn the less agile jets, but your main use is being the fastest and loudest fat man alive while flying it by metaphorically body slamming people with your quad 20mms in boom-n-zoom attacks.
I literally got this yesterday I always saw it as a free kill even when I was learning jets turns out people are just really bad at using it it’s got an incredible one shot ability okay turning and as much as you say reversing isint great I get almost all my kills by using air break and forcing them into my guns
If only the Do335 would have such power , still has 4000hp and not accelerating at all for such a huge amount of hp . I think the A2D-1 pulls a little too hard for an about 8 ton heavy figher bomber , but hey it's WT . Were prototype jets outturn props like nothing , the Arado 234 C3 is also a beast as a jet fighter . 😅
let's not forget it's a game where they completely inored the existence of the Jumo 222 engine, +240 units produced and not a single one ingame.. what a shame.
@@sparkling925 The Do335 has 4000hp at WEP , but you can't outrun a Spitfire , P51 or whatever prop you face . It was the fastest prop at WW2 , but not in WT . I only say it should accelerate faster with such hp or more than twice the power of a P51 , at a level flight . And a jet bomber with twice the power of a Me262 and almost as agile is a beast lmao , never played it I guess .
USMC3 - each time I meet them, they climb to space and/or camp the AF and/or suicide to deny the kill. One of the worst squadrons in game. Low-skilled absolute tryhards.
I knew this video was coming because me and my friend played against you on Afghanistan and I suddenly realized you had the VTE tag so tryharded massively for a couple of minutes at the end of the match, not knowing exactly it was you until I watched the replay. It's not in the video but then it wouldn't have been super exciting footage Though we both shot you down in Meteors I figured we probably would have been stomped if you hadn't been flying some turboprop brick
“People like to fight attackers because they think it’s a free easy kill” Me in an AD-4, dude in arcade said I’m hacking and “reported me” after he died more than once in full commit head ons with me, all I did was dodge and use my 20mms in a short burst when he thought he was surprising me from above while I was hitting ground targets. 😂
I had a similar issue with the FPS lag and found out it was a program called display fusion i used for my multi monitor setup. once i removed it it fixed all my FPS issues
This video feels like shooting fish in the barrel, but the fish are superglued to the end of your gun and are so acustic and restarted they dont even notice that they are not in the water. And the barrel is in the corner, leaking water bc they are so rarted they didnt even notice that either.
I think it's worth to mention that this is a turboprop which a jet engine turning a propeller so it's not really a prop. Turboprops have much better pull or let's say torque at low speeds and eat pure jets for breakfast there.
Any way you could tell everyone to grow some bawz and not run to the airfield, even in a better plane? I can't believe people would rather do thst or run to the map border all match and achieve nothing, even at like 3.0 where there's almost no repair cost😂
It's a bit over-br'd but it's capable. Just outclassed. Also funny quirk, 100% throttle acts like a limited WEP for some reason. After a certain amount of time using 100% throttle the engine will start to instantly dark orange and then red over-heat anytime you go to it again. Basically after a while it just becomes the melt engine button. Its weird, cooling down the engine by dropping throttle doesnt fix it at all. Feels like it gets about 3-5 minutes of normal 100% throttle before it becomes the melt engine zone.
That isn't a funny quirk. It is how Gaijin models engine thermodynamics. Every engine will behave that way over time due to degradation of the effectiveness of the oil as a cooling fluid. Most engines you just don't run into it as much. Mk.I and II Spits are two other aircraft that have this as a prominent issue.
I remember trying to get MiG-15 as it was a top tier by shooting down these things with MiG-9 in Simulator battles. It must have Been what, 2018? Anyways, These things were My main dinner everytime to grind myself towards that top tier yummy
Can you please give me some tips in the P-47D-30 Thunderbold in the chinatechtree, idk how to use this Aircraft with airbrakes and what are the tactits with it
about the stutter, what GPU do you have? also, I've considered getting this plane multiple times, but never did just cause I wouldn't be able to stand flying it, its just ugly, especially from the rear where I'd be looking at it basically the whole time
the A2D gets extra speed by flapping its wings, truly the pinnacle of american technology
fun fact: this thing can face supersonics in arcade.

Wow a twin prop. just like the seafire FR47.
Bait enemy in vertical loop fight and using the advantage in generate energy, maneuvering in low speed (with flap). Oh wow😮
