[quote] Another potent weapon of the Il-2s was the PTAB shaped charge bomblets (protivotankovaya aviabomba, "anti-tank aviation bomb"). They were designated PTAB-2.5-1.5, as they had the size of a 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) bomb, but weighed only 1.5 kg (3.3 lb) due to the empty space in the shaped charge. Up to 192 were carried in four external dispensers (cluster bombs) or up to 220 in the inner wing panels' internal ventral weapon bays. The HEAT charge could easily penetrate the relatively thin upper armor of all heavy German tanks. PTABs were first used on a large scale in the Battle of Kursk.
To compensate for the poor accuracy of the Il-2's bombsight, in 1943 the Soviet Command decided to use shaped-charge armor-piercing projectiles against enemy armored vehicles, and the PTAB-2.5-1.5 SCAP aircraft bomb was put into production. These small-calibre bombs were loaded directly into the bomb bays and were dropped onto enemy vehicles from altitudes up to 100 meters (328 ft). As each Il-2 could carry up to 192 bombs, a fire carpet 70 meters (229 ft.) long and 15 meters (49 ft) wide covered the enemy tanks, giving a high "kill" probability.[/quote]
PTAB when
note: this is only for SMAA and below mentioned fans :)
btw. now when SMAA is finally added (yay) to Elite: Dangerous and Arma 2:OA and Arma 3 let's get it to War Thunder [url]http://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/87442-smaa-enhanced-subpixel-morphological-antialiasing/[/url]

Have you (or anyone) managed to get the SMAA injector working with dx11?
I'd use dx9 but the game crashes whenever I try to launch dx9

soon actually, they've said that they are adding them

well there goes ever having fun in RB as a Tiger tank, not that it was much fun to begin with.
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;46132816]well there goes ever having fun in RB as a Tiger tank, not that it was much fun to begin with.[/QUOTE]
hence why everyone should play SB
Tiger is good in RB and will be even better since medium tanks won't be the only ones to respawn anymore.
[QUOTE=Doom14;46129130]RMB is track target right? Put that shit on F or something. You don't need it that much.
I use:
LMB: Cannons
RMB: Machine Guns
MMB: Select Target (at Crosshair)
M4: Additional Guns (Gunpods)
M5: Strange Jazz Cannons[/QUOTE]
Track target is Alt. RMB is zoom by default. I use numbers for different guns (1, 2, 3).

I love SB battles, but I hate the 15 minute wait between battles. Kinda kills the fun.

Meh, it's a low tier gift plane. So, no RP bonus and you still have to research modules.

D.520 owns and is fun to fly and the challenge is easy as fuck
[quote]By completing all of the missions in one set the player is guaranteed to get the D.521![/quote]
Soooooo, 120 RB kills or 140 RB assists, and you get a free plane?
I'm having trouble believing it's that simple after the ridiculousness of the summer missions.
Not that simple, you just enter a "lottery". You do higher rank missions= more chance. But since its a lottery doing all the tasks, chances are you won't get the plane. edit: was wrong, you do get the plane after 360/120 ab/rb kills.

Yeah, I corrected it.

Radeonator Pro had working DX11 injector, so if you have AMD card you lucky ...
but I'm talking about native support in games, keep pressure on your fav game developers to include it :)

Just get the 520, same thing.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;46140484]Just get the 520, same thing.[/QUOTE]
I don't think you understand. The 521 is an entire 1 better than the 520.
[QUOTE=Shibbey;46140602]I don't think you understand. The 521 is an entire 1 better than the 520.[/QUOTE]

This reminds me of what pilots said of the P-400 in the pacific.
In essence:
"It's strong and it's agile, it's like they took a P-40 and stuck a zero on its tail!"

I'm pretty sure they called the P-400 that because it was a piece of shit and the "Zero on its tail" is the one chasing it to shoot it down.

I heard the same story except instead of strong and agile it was analogy to it going fast while flying very erratically.

people on reddit said they're identical in game.
