@@jp18449good in its own way, both are fun creators but I certainly enjoy the stark difference between the energy levels on phly’s vids and how low key dollars are
It’s mostly premium users (like myself) we only have one tank at the br and are just using it for rp to grind up to top tier. I have a few tanks that i can use besides my single 11.3 premium (A1M🗿) but it’s quite literally the losat and wolfpack. Luckily im not too far from the chaparral so i can at least be slightly supportive
I'd say the Type 81 (c) has this thing beat. Because unlike this range can't protect you. Also staying low prevents this thing from utilizing it's photo contrast mode.
Yea I was in my imp chaparral and became friends with a type 93 we just drove around the map then one of me team drove up on us and murdered the type 93
I'm stuck grinding with the stock shell... At 10.0+ it's really reaaaally painful. Same with the 2S25M I just got to beef out my 10.0 before going in. I could tell the B already a lot more survivable than the A... While mowing down ERA and spaced armor with my HEAT shell XD
Big respect for Кино - пачка сигарет song, even though it's in retrowave remix. Always very nice to hear Russian songs on non-russian channels. (I'm rus btw and always enjoying your content) ❤
Day 118, we've seen the Sturmtiger and ASU-57 at top tier, Now we want to see the RBT-5 at top tier WITH OddBawz and Spookston, with air support from Defyn(thanks to @Torrengen for the Defyn idea).
I request a video on the He 100! It's stupidly fast for 1.7, can hold 550+ km/h at deck no problem, excellent climber, only downside is it's engine likes to burn so keep an eye on the temp. Not too OP, and super fun! Bring it to a higher br for a challenge if you want (day 30)
for the people looking for the song, im sure its a remix, the original is Kino - пачка сигарет. You might find some uploads from Viktor Tsoy (Виктор Цой) which is the vocalist for the band, so either works
i love that AA and i will tell you a lot of the kills i get with it are people who will flare and just stay still not try to flare and move around but just pop flares and stay hovering or flying straight no movement to dodge
Steve, watching, that you are listening to a song from Kino, has made my day, which shows you simply have a good taste in music, especially with that retro edit of soviet cameras. That was nostalgic! You are the absolute best; others simply have hatred against Russia while you are capable of enjoying a GAME! Thanks for everything, i watch your contents daily to have fun, although i havent played for a long time.
we don’t hate Russian people, I have met them and was taught their language in middle school, I love Russians, just hate the way their vehicles are portrayed in the game
@@notafrog2040 You may have no hatred but mostly have. Btw, its a game full of bugs; all vehicles are portrayed the way that they dont or didnt do perform IRL. War thunder is just simply the closest game to the RL. Russian vehicles are also very good performing, you cant say that Russia should only have junks. Already except the high tier, russian vehicles are far behind the western counter parts, you face Leopards with IS-4.
@@rmdomainer9042 then you may not also wonder when you see people in all around the globe hate you because of what you did but they dont scam games and act like children
Funny your video comes up now... I've unlocked the Strela as my very first missile SPAA like two weeks ago. It's sooooo enjoyable clapping CAS easy mode. It's not a miracle weapon though as seen in the video, there are cases where it can be evaded rather easily... Some maps too. Big open clear skies in wide open maps tho hehehehehe MWAHAHAHA... There's something cathartic about watching the missile fly away like an ADHD kid in a candy store to the inevitable demise of flying pixels desperately trying to evade (or just plain target fixated and BOOM)
I dont think this is in warthunder but im pretty sure the after the missiles is launched using IR it uses an optical seeker which means its impossible to flare or chaff since its using the shape of the aircraft to seek instead of a thermal signature.
I just remembered watching your vid years ago not understanding à word about english and looking at the image. passing the introduction cause i didn't understand. And non i dont think about it anymore
No shot. Just watched this between matches. My last match ran into a anti tank. Out of ammo on my aa, we did a few circles then agrred to go 9n our way. Nost wholesome moment ever
The fact that pre-flaring in a Buccaneer doesn’t prevent an Ozelot lock, nevermind a Strela lock, is why I often prefer to play outside of that BR range in ground rb if possible.
Phly, you've brought back the "Everybody" intro right? Well, there has been a certain song kinda stuck _In My Head_ phor a while that you could also bring back! Attempt # 627 The song i mean is Virtual Riot - In My Head (feat. PRXZM)
Most epic flank ever. I dare you to repeat it with... Wolfpack. Every time i try to flank with that i get killed from afar, "dont look and they are not there" is not working for me ! 😂
A nerf for the missile seeker is long overdue. It basically has irccm which is just so stupid. The seeker head is too small, and in some cases even from 5km you can’t flare it. The fact it’s 9.3 is even more absurd, since it faces a lot of flare-less jets. This thing is in every match I swear, it’s just spammed so much…
To be fair, flares don't seem to work on any surface-based IR missiles except the Type-93's Type 91 SAM. And the fact that the Strela has neither the manoeuvrability nor the small-hideable-profile of the Ozelot, or any other weapon system like the LAV-AD or SIDAM makes 9.3 seem pretty reasonable to me.
@@yatokami7907Ozelot at 9.7 with 10G missiles and no photo contrast mode while the Strela sits at 9.3? Seems a little silly to me. Albeit, the Ozelot’s Stingers have more range from front aspect. Maneuverability means very compared to the HUGE difference in lethality.
This thing is better than the Pantsir, it has good enough range and takes out human error, it's also much smaller. A good CAS player will play with a Pantsir like a cat playing with its food, but it won't do the same with the Strela if it gets within a few KMs of the battlefield
I feel like they buffed it recently, as a couple of weeks ago it used to be impossible to lock helis even when flying away from me, and planes were questionable until like 2.5km, now it annihilates choppers and jets out to like 3.5km
They introduced the photocontrast mode in the last update (along with the choice of photo / IR lock-on or letting the game decide automatically for you), this is what helped a lot I believe. The best way for planes to evade photocontrast is terrain... Clouds would work too I imagine.
Vehicle request day 1, Phly! The Spitfire MKXVI (clipped winged 5.0) could either be the most uneventful or entertaining plane you could fly with no in between, how about a vid to find out..?
