Air Nations in War Thunder EXPLAINED: Part 3 - Japan & China | Plane Countries Guide ft. @_Joob 

Small sidenote, many of you have mentioned that the .50 cals on the Japanese planes are actually quite decent, and after some testing they are indeed pretty nice.

He’s back and better than ever

I love the Japanese air tree because it's such a mixed back, the Ki-84's, the N1K's, the A6m's, they're all turn fighter really, but they play differently from each other that it doesn't feel stale. And the J7W1 I adore with all my heart lol. It's not the best but those 30 mils have earned me aces more than once or twice. Dare I say as well, the Ki-44's are the best dogfighters in the game tier for tier. Absolute rockets, not hardest at turning but turn most things against them, and the ammo types just work ig.

Two weeks after he released the video, Sons of Attila dropped and changed the Japanese Tech Tree. The video has started to become dated only two weeks after a it’s release. Gotta love the Snail’s timing

You know the nation guides will always go hard

after you spade this tech tree youll earn a skill, that skill is basically not wasting more than what you need with bullets, its pretty good skill for tier 1 to tier 6. This was my first spaded tech tree and i loved it very much, from tier 1 to tier 5 and tier 8, tier 6 and 7 were pain and not really enjoyable (no flares or flares that sucky sucky)

was not expecting the joob cameo for the j7e but it was a welcome surprise lol

As a japan main i would like to pecise some things in the comments, the japanese grind is pretty easy compared to other nations basically every fighter in the rank 2 - 4 are really good but if you want to grind the jets its more hard since the rank 5 and 6 aren't realy good and over priced so i would recommend farming the sabre asap with the ki200 after that i would recommend sim for rank 6 since t2 k and f1 have really good radar so finding target is easy and for the f104 its not that bad when you know how to play it, and don't make the mistake to research the f4 ej kai first.

I think the Japanese .50 cals were downplayed a bit. I've personally seen them do a lot of damage especially with Air Target belts. They do fall off a bit as the BR increases, but for the Ki-43 and early Ki-61s they are very good with ammo count being its biggest drawback

you know it's a masterpiece when Doger and Joob works on airplanes

Yoooo another air nations in war thunder explained video dropped!!!! These are excellent videos, keep up the excellent work!

Man im waiting for italy air guide, to see if I really just suck at planes or if the low ranks are really a purgatory for italy

The king has returned

i was at 6.3 japan when you published part 2, I now am grinding the leftovers from lower in the tree with my F16Aj lmao

Finally, a part 3!

finally what took you so long to make the series 3 and i hope you are working on the part 4 without delays

finally, a guide i will watch religiously even though i almost spaded it

You may need to redo this video very soon because Japan will get F-15J and F-2 while China will get J-10A and F-CK1 Ching Kuo. Also, Gaijin recently removed the 9 G limiter for all F-16A variants.

21:25 The door breaking sound then sk changing is voice is gold 💀

By far the modt fun tech tree ive played thus far

I can't agree with calling T-2 mediocre, no other plane gets access to AIM-9P at 9.7, paired up with incredibly good radar, you can get amazing results. Note that it's also a supersonic fighter, so when facing a downtier you can be the fastest plane in the match. More agile than starfighter, faster than a sabre. Biggest downside is lack of chaff and RWR, flares can be achieved with 2x missile pod and cutting down on afterburner + sharp turn

babe wake up, the new air nation guide dropped

The A6M3 is my favorite plane in the entire game. The only thing that can kill me is being swarmed by enemies.

We both know the incident of August 5th, 2022 Mr SkDoger. You can't hide from it forever

I've always loved flying the A6Ms, even the high tier ones. Why? People always want to turn with you dispite being told constantly not to turn with a Zero.

ive been waiting sooooooooooo long for this vid thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I waited 4 months for this. Yay China (ROC)!

the Japanese tree is really fun but rank 6 is an absolute chore, not a single flare between any of them

I enjoyed a lot the Tu-2S, I sometimes would use it as a heavy fighter and, surprisingly, I get 2 kills in some matches before dying

J-7's double delta wing is one of the best looking wings in my opinion.

was thinking about Joob when it comes to talking about the J-7E, lo and behold there he is shilling the plane he aced

"50cals deal little damage" my man, have You not used the Japanese 12.7mm air target belt? That thing hits as hard as 30mm. Its I N S A N E. Nice guide otherwise, though I think you're way too harsh on some of the japanese planes :D

one thing very interesting about the japanese line is that you only need to get 2 out of the 5 tech tree lines to reach toptier...

realy cool and helpful ure vids... thx + greetz

Welcome back😊

Finally worth the wait

18:30 I just learned 3 tons of bombs are equal to 6600 kg of bombs 😂

The Ki-44-II otsu is one of, if not the best fighters at 3.0. The thing is really light, and has a massive engine giving it amazing climbing and acceleration performance, and is almost as maneuverable as an A6 so you wont be losing any dogfights unless its against an A6 or you get 3rd partied. I havent put hundreds of battles into it but the nearly 100 i have, has earned me just above a 6.0 K/D with it. Of course, its fragile as every other japanese plane and one of the main downsides is the 2 40mm wing mounted guns that only have 20 rounds total that are tracerless and have really low velocity. Don't think i've really gotten any kills with the 40mms at all because they're just not that useful, however the 2 50cals make up for the lackluster cannon performance with their amazing IAI and HEF rounds

Yooo I play Japan and I’ve waited 84 years for this!!!!

I waited so long much support

Joob was a nice surprise

1:22 I somewhat disagree. Yeah the 7.7's aren't great, but I've had good experiences with the 50 cals as of late.

These videos really help thanks

Perfect thanks man

Oh sweet a new video

Italy and sweden next would be a piece of cake

Thank you for the Japan guide

Update, the T-2 now can carry 2 AIM-9Ps at the same B.R, so it's arguably much better than it was before.

Good video, but holy sibilance dude. Please put a filter on your vocals when editing. Don't take this as hate tho, like the vids

Finally a video

Japan will always be a fan fav for air along with Italy and Germany lol

Joob should narrate on the official wt channel tbh

Where tf did u go bro

Props to the creator, although he made some mistakes. 1. Zeros aren't that great in terms of grinding and learning. You learn nothing about energy fighting which you will operate on with J2Ms, J7W or any other fighter that can exceed 620km/h. And for your enemy it requires a few brain cells to prevent you from getting any shot on them. Very fun, but I didn't learn much playing them and I've learned more with J2M and even J7W. 2. The G8N1 is way stronger than the creator has described it. The defensive armament is very overwhelming and the only heavy bomber having better firepower than it is the Tu-4. If someone thinks Me-264 has a strong def armament, G8N1 is much stronger, having all angles covered with more cannons that hit even harder. The speed for its size, just like for the Me-264 is insane, being able to exceed 580km/h with full bomb load in a -5° dive at 4000m, as well as the rip speed being 680km/h IAS. The payload is bad for its size, but still somewhat usable since you barely, but actually can destroy a base. And it's a great grinder if being used by the right person. With some decent aim, the correct way of playing and the crew having some good abilities maxed out, in most cases you make at least 10K SL per game with no boosters, while flying a plane that is even more fun to play than Zero imo. 3. The Ki-84, at least Hei, is very powerful until it faces a P-51H that otruns and outclimbs it, with the Ki-84 barely outturning the P-51H. 4. R2Y2s are great grinders too. Their roll rate is very bad, but this thing having 4 30mms doesn't require trigger discipline and it's actually more like unlimited spraying because of 600 of total ammo. 5. Sabres aren't that great against MiG-15s and supersonics, the Brownings are the worst guns they could possibly mount unless we also talk about anything else below 20mm. MiG-15 outturns, outclimbs and has better guns than the Sabre, only being barely outrunned. This isn't meant to be offensive, only to point out some mistakes that newbies shouldn't listen to. Despite these mistakes, the video os still great. All said by a full-time japanese main. If you made it this far, thank you.

sweden is creeping ever closer

now the T-2 has AIM-9Ps

FINALY, JAPAN!

Which is the best Japanese 6.0 to research?

I bet one the next 2 parts will have freezed in it

Do you think the f16aj will be replaced by the f2, considering Japan never used the f16. (With the f16 name at least)

When the last part coming i gotta se sweden

german main just watching for the fun lmao

13:24 tier 6 and 7 is an F tier

I thougth it never would come out 😭

Man, the Ki21 bomber can outturn a bi-plane. That ought to say something. Bring this bomber to low tier as CAS with 20 50kg bombs or 10 100kg bombs and just sh*t on the enemy.

woooah!

cannot wait for you to redo those because the tech tree changes :Tf:

FINALY

always a good year when he uploads

"They weren't build in real life so they might get removed", I wouldn't worry about that looking at the american rank 4 and 5 in tanks. Also I thought you would just go "watch the american and soviet trees explained" with the chinese tree

Finally i can die in peace

very cheeki breeki but where italy

o7 thank you sir

Dont play china, dont waste your time unless you go full top tier with premium vehicles, china have other nations vehicles but is always the "bad" versión of them better go for israel aiming at the merkavas

19:43 WHY ISNT THAT GUY ASIAN???

Me casually waiting for sweden

The videos just keep getting better, but some of the chinese pronunciations were a little lacking, maybe contact your local chinese immigrant

This Japanese speaker somehow sounds American, but if I tweak the voice just A tad in my mind, it has A thick Tokyo accent…

its better than ever, sk it is i cc

Me and the masochists waiting france and italy

lets goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

JooooooooB

The 2 K's: Kamikaze and Kommunism

Japan Ichiban desu!

The beginner friendliness rankings so far 1. USA 2. Germany 3. China 4. UK 5. Japan 6. USSR

Waaaassssssuuuuuuppppppp ggaaaaannnnnnggggggg

❤

I am heavily offended as a Chinese person that red sun in the sky was not played in the chinese intro

How can you talk about Japanese planes and not mention how they are pretty much the slowest planes compared to any other nations 😂

I beg to differ with him saying Japan fire firepower is not the best. Have you gotten hit by a Tracer belt from a J2M2 or an A6M5 or A7M1? You just get parts ripped off your plane with ease. Japan has a few biplanes at the start of the line like the Ki-10 all the way to Ki-10-II C even though it's only like 4 or 6 in the line. But Japan SUFFERS compared to almost every other tree But good video nice to see someone do Japan and even China 👍

I thought the R2Y2's were removed a while ago... ?

Omg yes

YOOOOOO

So you collab with a relevant WT youtuber, and not the real Mr. Bonzi™ (Creator of the viral hit "Belgian Slander (real)" [182k Views])?? Kinda Cringe

Why doe🐦 bro pronoun🐦e every S and C whi🐦tling

I play china personally because im chinese

ofcourse he got the china simp to help with the video

💘 *Promosm*

1st

Japanes air players are fatherless
