Kamikaze attack on an American CV: "We're Critically damaged and need to return to port for repairs" Kamikaze attack on a British CV: "To your Brooms, Men. Start sweeping the wreckage overboard"
I mean Fundamental difference in design doctrine. RN CV's had to operate close to land based Airfields so had to be able to weather attacks from both larger and more aircraft, while USN CV's had to operate far from major landmasses so were designed to maximize Hanger Size and such.
Kamikaze manages to punch a hole through British carrier deck, its out of action for weeks. Kamikaze does it to American deck, its back in the action in a week or three days in the case of USS Yorktown. If you haven't seen the new movie Midway I strongly recommend. it is the most historically accurate warfilm I've ever seen. Cherrio, good chaps for your CVs were great your air planes for them were crap or in later war scary.
@@p.f.886 I mean British Navy were most bad ass at sea maybe but not just most badass that would probably have to be given to the Russians and Most badass navy in all honesty in ww2 would probably be Japan overall
> Indomitable had the ability to carry more planes than her sister so why does she have the lowest reserves in the entire game? smaller than saipan lmao
@@mariopalenciagutierrez4318 agreed, can't argue the facts about the ship :)) just pointing out what I think was a misunderstanding of what was said in the vid
@@STARZFAN31 the restoration time makes it so that if you get deplaned you won't be able to launch squadrons, or at least of more than 1 or 2 planes. So while technicallu yes, aircraft are infinite, no, you can't just bump em out.
@@lordredlead2336 t8 bombs and rockets on a ship with less planes than saipan which gets t10. it also has a longer wait between plane deaths and lacks torps
Which one? I believe the new Enterprise is number 9 or 10 at this point. Most advanced ship in the fleet. Just kidding I know which one your referring to, they're all legends in my book.
Agreed. Did British carriers really see any real combat during WW2?? Did they ever get attacked the way the American carriers did and yet come back still fighting??
@@cuchococh4977 completed my 1st batch of pr ships on my bday lasy month..... and starting my 2nd batch with Umu I mean kitakaze(ady at 1.2m exp grind) hbu good sir?
@@Scy416 Azuma done and for the lack of oil struggling to farm for Kita, only 71% on the first 1M part. I'm giving the oil a rest so can farm the remaining in two or three days using basically Azuma + Yuubari Kai + Ibuki. Expensive fleet but makes 12-4 very fast
No torpedo bombers? Fast, paper planes with small squadron sizes? Can these carpet bombers even have enough armor penetration to actually damage a ship rather than setting fires that are insta-repaired which is the case for the other underwhelming RN CVs? I really don't think this is a plausible idea.
@@DBT1007 You are a high IQ one branding people with such words without knowing jacksh*t about the game aren't you? What are you going to do with that armor in this game? Do you plan on slapping enemy ships with the armored deck panels by hand? Please stay ignorant and don't reply logical comments. Ah and more armor on deck->higher chance for getting penned by AP bombs and shells as the armor on is not 400mms of steel...
@@estoyaqui5386 As far as I know the penetration capability must be higher than the armor threshold in this game. That means you need at least 33mm of penetration on bombs to pen 32mm of armor. I'm not sure about it though. I hope at least it can do well against DDs and CEs.
PLZ BUFF UK CV . Before selling these ships, perform good testing experiments. Did the tester thoroughly test the modified boat? Can such an aircraft carrier be sold?
So.... It has less reserves than saipan. Lowest alpha of any CV in her tier. Planes just barely faster than Graf Zeppelin's (which btw needs a buff). The same fire chance as implacable (that gets more planes and attack runs). And even with the extra fighet consumable you get 1 less fighter in total. How could you possibly make a worse CV?
I wouldn’t mind the old cvs brought back as premium from the tech tree. But t10 cvs don’t bring any economic gain and since if your t8 and can get up tiered to t10 I’d rather just stick with t8 prem cvs
@@jhettm.4286 You do get better XP and Credits but I really cannot enjoy bot-tiered CV plays after the latest "balanced" AA system. When you have T8 planes, attacking anything on T10 surface ships is mostly frustrating on CVs side. And if the T10 CV is premium, they can give it an extra -50% of post battle service perk on the permanent camo coming with the ship which makes it even better.
3:44 wait seriously a kamikaze attacked on the HMS Indomitable just done only a scratch on it are you kidding me . That's incredible I will buy the HMS Indomitable .
This is true. I heard there was an American officer of reasonable rank on board at the time and he commented something along the lines of, "when one of our carriers gets hit by a kamikaze it's back to port for a long repair, when a British carrier get hit by one it's a case of 'sweepers man your broomsticks'" Or so the story goes
kinda hope the sea mosquitos are a little stealthier than the other nations. a plane made of wood was harder for radar to detect (during WWII). nothing big, I'd settle for 9km stock... 8 if you're being super generous. also helps since she doesn't have any torpedo bombers.
No thanks. Waiting for an objective review like LWM's review to even consider whether its worth buying it or not. And after the shitshow with U.$.$. you-know-her-name, it will take a looooooooong time before I will consider spending one more cent for WG
Rockets to shred DDs. Bombs to shred everything else. ...apart from BBs with 32mm+ deck. No torps to harm said BBs. Keep on course WG, soon the BBs in the queue won´t outnumber all other classes by 2:1 but 10:1.
We have more ways to torture dds now! :D and no torpedo bombers can only mean that dds will be focused even more while playing this thing, I feel nervous about this...
HMS Hood There probably saving Illustrious class for 2nd British carrier line. Like this T4 HMS Eagle T6 HMS Unicorn T8 HMS Illustrious T10 HMS Centaur
@@lordredlead2336 they should be the fastest because they have low health, the indominatables planes don't even need to be as fast because they are stronger and harder to shoot down unlike the Graf's planes that is why the Graf should have the fastest planes!
Saipan is incredibly strong at its tier and ridiculous at top tier, with that said even at tier x she's a pain for all ship classes. She's a mini midway. I actually find it easier to get deplaned in GZ than saipan.
Sven Johansson för 1 sekund sedan @David 1YT Ohhh,,,, So Sorry ,, U did understand and all othhers aswell AC,, Air Craft Carrier,,, well well .. Dont you got anything else to complain on ??
this time i belive you vill find a lot of new Ac players since the last update took the air out of us who liked to play AC-- Great job now it seems to that we have a resonable chans again :) Sierra Two Nine Four echo ,, S294 Greetings from Sweden .

I'll just stick to my Kaga ThyVeryMuch. You you playin WG? 2 runs with the bombers? What you dont know that AA exists in you game? If you dont pre-drop your first run you will be deplaned half way through the game! It looks like you have no idea what game you guys are trying to sell
