Jesus the German bombers are kinda shite. The Do-217s make no sense. The E4 has a forward firing cannon and a cannon turret, but it's a lower rank than the M series with only 7.7s to defend itself and no forward gun, but the same bombload.
I'm sick of this games matchmaking, I'm playing only tier 1 planes and I'm getting paired against those goddamn aircobra's

Whoever designed that particular spawn area of the map, with facing spawns needs to be shot.

Holy fuck I'd be so pissed off.
I'm pretty sure historically that 85mms didn't one shot Tigers as often as they do in this game.

It's a shell with ~150g or so of HE fill and a shell that historically didn't have issues frontally penetrating Tigers at 500 meters (If anything, it's penetrating less than it should ingame).
When an 150g of explosives blow up inside your tank, sending out excessive shrapnel, aside of the shrapnel created by punching through your armor, near your ammo, the tank will NOT stay alive.

REMOVE FASCIST
There's a funny difference in doctrine. [B]German 75mm[/B] apparently [B]had 18g[/B] of HE filler (the thing all Panthers except Panther 2 have). [B]German 88mm had 59g[/B] of filler. still just a bit more than a third of the 85mm shell.
[B]BR-350A had[/B], again, [B]about 150g[/B] of it.
No matter how you pan it, 85mm should be SIGNIFICANTLY deadlier than any German gun short of the 128mm (and maybe the 105mm which shoots fantasy not-exist-shells so who knows there), as long as it penetrates.
The BR-365A penetrating the turret is basically as if somebody threw an

with more shrapnel from the heavier casing plus extra shrapnel and spall from the penetration.
If you think that shouldn't oneshot tanks then I don't know what to tell you.

And I'm pretty sure the glorious, [B]black-clad and scull decorated 3.7-cm flgzbwhkre sebsfhlt sdkfzgerttt 6/2 [/B]roared towards Kv1s and tigers until they were close enough, then fucking punched the brakes with the might of thor while doing a sharp right, shooting right into the barrel and then into the drivers hatch, promptly followed by "cry about it" somehow broadcasted over all used frequencies.
But in war thunder, [I]they do[/I].
Are all the heavy tanks like Tiger, IS etc one respawn per game jobbies like the KV-1?
[QUOTE=Kilgore 2nd;45059172]Are all the heavy tanks like Tiger, IS etc one respawn per game jobbies like the KV-1?[/QUOTE]
Yes.
its why I switched to mediums, they're almost always situationally superior, you get arty which is great for peeking over shit and you get a respawn
In the game the T-34 would instead oneshot the tiger, the 76mm has more than enough penetration to go through the rear of Tiger's turret at that distance, and again, an enormous explosive filler :v:
Soviet shells generally came with a BIG boom. That's why the penetration was lower compared to German shells. Soviets wanted to be sure that if the shell goes through, it will be completely devastating.
So the Boston bomber is quite a nice plane for RB matches

All tanks over 40000kg only get one respawn.
Unless your tank happens to be the Panther, because, I dunno, Nazi bias or something.

There's a reason you quit after those.
The Do-217 E-Series are the best of the German bomb line. They're almost like the Tu-2, just with awful defensive armament and only one pilot cannon. I still love them. Unfortunately, they don't have the crazy-ass airbrake they tried on a few early Do-217Es.
[t]http://www.lonesentry.com/articles/ttt08/pics/do217.jpg[/t]
Seriously, the only good German bombers are the Ju-88A-4 and the two Do-217Es. Some people have fun with the Ar 234. Some people have problems.
It'll be more interesting if they add the Ar-234C with four engines and static ass twenties.

Tanks distracted me and I have to wrap up the 109 K-4 and Ta-152. Once those are done, it was Arado time.

There, see, it has Spade now. Please don't hit me Furher
Probably gonna quit tonks once I get all Era III's unlocked (not even aced) because it's pretty poor past 4.0.

If you aren't using it as an Anti-Sabre cruise missile you're using it wrong.

close match
SU-100 is so overpowered with the stock ammunition, it's crazy that this thing gets two respawns. I can only imagine how hard this thing is going to stomp with the best ammunition
