One Of The Most Overtiered Planes That Somehow Still Works 

The biggest advantage about this plane is that no one knows how to fight it because its in the Italian tech tree

It works because the only people who fly it love to fly it, so every time you see an Re.2005 it's not a 5% chance the pilot knows what they are doing, like most aircraft, it's 50/50.

That was an immaculate bait from the Ki-83 at 0:57 damn...

P-47 bomb cut is mint.

Essentially the Shiden-Kai of Italy

My all time favorite italian plane has still gotta be C.202EC on release. 3.0 with a cracked FM and MG 151s that oneshot everything they looked at... was very fun.

I think why we all love Defyn’s videos so much is because seeing that “aircraft destroyed” text so many times in games is complete neuron since we all see it so little lolololl

I remember when this was 5.3 with it's older flight model, it was insane, then they changed the flight model and it was kinda okay. Then it went up and up and up...like every Italian and Japanese prop ever. Go figure.

My favorite plane! It's true nobody knows what to do with it because it's so rare, although it helps massively that US teams around that tier seem to be allergic to altitude. It's a joy to fly when you have energy advantage.

11:38 I'm dying man , well done

Now I do wanna be careful of his bomb load. Because he does- "rip wingtip"

It is good to see this thing flown out again. The last time I saw this in a video was made like 2 years ago by Adam the engineered. The game changed so god damn hard it is just ridiculous.

"he ends up eating sh*t" dont ever change brother lol

This was one of my favorite planes in the entire Italian tech tree even when they nerfed it... when it was at 5.3. It felt like a 109 had a baby with a Spitfire. Fantastic guns, fantastic energy, and fantastic turn performance. At least, that's how I remember it. It's been a while since I've flown it in Air RB. Now, I use it for CAS because it has a 500kg bomb along with the 100kg on each side. It's absolute murder for CAP duties though, I love clearing the skies around the battlefield after I drop my big bomb.

Defyn thank you for all the information in your videos. I used to barely be able to get a kill in Air RB, but I just had my first 5 kill game (at 3.0 with the A-36) thanks to your demonstrations of how to avoid head ons, manage energy, and survive engagements more.

Agree on the airfield change. Such a small change but god is it great. No more dealing with airfield campers turning back whenever they are losing a fight

One of the most gorgeous fighter planes, shame no entire airframes exist, only a tail subframe exists in a museum.

The C205 serie 3 and the Re2005 were the planes that made me a bit decent at air rb so they have a special place in my heart. Also they helped me get the J6K1 during the event and other event/premium planes. Love them and I'll die on this hill

That crashing thing is a new bug. Seems to happen when you open the map around halfway through the match.

Gave a like because that cut was god tier

Get this man to 100k.

Nice bait job by the ki-83 @ 0:57 What a glorious setup for an easy double

Very satysfying.

Great vid my man, still excited to see a vid on the F-104A/C, i'm about to get into USA Rank 6 and i'm deciding which one of these should i use

absolutely clarted one of these in my B-17E the other day

It's a nice fighter that can show its tail to enemies and lure them in.

Italian props are the most fun tbh. I love seal clubbing with the basic C.205, the lower BR is worth having no cannons.

Great vid, cant wait for the f104a video lol

Honestly one of the only machines that keeps WT on my PC. I do tend to only play Air sim, where she's an absolute dream to fly. But I still can kick some ass whenever I bother with RB

Ey, Defyn making a guide for flaps? I am all up for it.

And welcome back!

That head on at the beginning of the video.

6.0 is absolutely fucking insane for it I thought it was an alright plane maybe a hit over tiered abit at 5.3

Id like to see in the guide about muti part flaps, especially when there damaged or destroyed

Cuts in the middle of the sentence are one of the most amusing things in your videos

I love how Defyn doesnt even comment on what happened at 0:26 hes just used to it

Ive always known that thing can turn on a dime so ive just avoided it as much as possible. Thanks for giving some tips on how to fight it.

11:36 BWAHAHAHA! That bit had me dying.

I was the K4 on the last game, just a casu player. The second I noticed the decal, I knew what was coming...

I love my re2005 Its really beginner friendly and lots of the time people dont how to engage it Its actually a decent CAS with the load out it gets and i use it in ground rb CAS and to fight other planes Its sad its a 6.0 now but hey gaijin be gaijin

napoleon reference was amazing

You do not make it easy to watch these videos without headphones.

I like these non meta plane reviews here lately.

This is my fav plane in the game

Flap guide on planes with slow flaps pls, i.e. Bf 109s.

8:20 there's nothing we can do🗿😞

Your title sums the Re.2005 up perfectly. I also am baffled at how a plane with the performance of a 4.3 Spitfire F Mk IX is at 6.0, but it is still playable at that BR because players suck at that BR, you can still use your advantages and early jets don't stand a chance in a dogfight.

Some are not aware of throttle management during dogfight, useful to add a segment to some guide

now I do need to be careful of the bomb load… and here we are!!!

Possibly my favourite prop plane. But I also have a strong preference for 5.0-6.0

This thing and the G.55 serie 0 were my favourites in the tree until they both got uptiered, haven't played them since 😔

The only reason this is 6.0 and not 5.3 or even 5.0 is that it fights US mains at 6.0 bracket. Half lawnmow and half dives after first ju288 they see. Despite being the only fighter on my team in vast majority of the matches(due to Ju288 spam it gets into a lot of 6v6 matches), 70%WR, 49: 12 KD in 23 matches. And this was by far my least favourite Italian in t3 and t4 - it had horrendous stock syndrome, going 520 in level flight and unable to go past 620 in dive... F8F or P51H outrun you in level flight as you dive on them.

idea about the flap guide: Maybe ask someone who's in arcade to make a flap guide for that mode too?

3:12 is the most sus thing I've heard Defyn say.🤨

My biggest gripe with the italian fighters is how stiff they feel, its hard to describe. They feel a bit harder to get the nose on target than other planes. Though ive become quite fond of the g55s lately in my italy grind.

So in the final analysis, keeping the bombs was the correct descision for the P47.

Italians props are the best in game, you can't change my mind. Enjoyed Spitfires, 109, 190 but this and G.55/.56 can't be beat

Defyn I been watching your channel for a long time. I am amazed by your skills and thx for the vids. Question tho … any suggestions for aiming my guns. I just can’t seem to make them connect. Planes, Jets etc just seem to fly rite thru my stream of shells . I don’t get it . Thx alot and keep up the great Vids 👌

Funnily enough, I use this for combat air patrol in ground RB. Even at higher tiers, the enemy planes never expect it to slap as hard as it does

i love playing the 2005. it's my favorite prop. Imo it is an excellent combination of great guns and good maneuverability. I didn't play most of the summer and it seems to me that they nerfed the engine. it seems to have less power and overheats where i used to be able to WEP all match no problem

Absolute goated of a plane

Love u deffy

Will you discuss flaps at top tier or near top tier?

That 3:18 quote 😳🧐

0:26 If I had to describe the average war thunder player in a one second clip

I guess it fits into the meta better than the G.56 due to its good 1v1 abilities and dealing with energy disadvantages, while the G.56 is good in 1vX with its great energy retention - albeit there are more 1v1s(with the enemy having better energy) than anything in rank IV for the Allies-Axis matches

Hey Defyn. Did you notice the Ki-100 that is now rank 3 in the Japan tech tree? It was not there before. Maybe you could do a review?

hope the spitfires going up in BR aswell

when it comes to flaps do u use a bind that goes straight to landing flaps instead of combat?

I still have nightmares of when it had a godly climb rate and would punish every single prop it came across. Now it just feels like fighting a spitfire but with really good guns

could you play the first griffon spitfire has some insane climb rate just wanna see your opinion !

for the flaps guide if you could point out some aircraft where flaps are useless, i heard the J7W's don't work(?) and aircraft with quirks in their flap usage, i know the F-8U has those lading flaps that'll throw you into a spiral if you don't understand them ahead of time lol. Out of curiosity, might you be willing to do some air RB ground attack demonstrations that show you how to not suck major ass at ground pounding and be a benefit to your team? The A-26 was really fun and ground pounding is kinda underrated (because Gaijin hates ground attack tbh)

Can you make a video on the Neshar, and do I have to donate to request a plane?

"By giving people my ass and this in my experience has brought me the most success" 💀 💀

Sir there is a Spitfire on our tail. There is nothing we can do.

yeah idk if im tripping but I was close to unlocking this plane in the tech tree and its gone or at least I dont see it.

Such a sexy plane

the re2005 is a chore to fight against if you're in something like the average 6.0 gunboat (which is what half of 6.0 planes are) but anything like a corsair or a yak 3u 0.3br lower will spank this thing. As much of a Mk9E spitfire the re2005 is it's still a mediocre mobile for 6.0 and mg151's are no longer what they were, especially against american aircraft which is what you face the most on it.

You should try the Ki-84 Hei at 7.7 on arcade.. yes, it's a prop

Hey Defyn, whats youre system information and youre graphic settings?

For one circles I know flaps generally help, but I'm curious if you could test a plane like the Tornado or F104 against itself flaps vs no flaps in a rate fight and see if the marginal gain in turn rate is worth it

Hi. Can you cover in the flaps guide topic if using flaps on take off for fighter planes. I personally think that it is absolutely useless garbage to use flaps on take off for fighters, because it causes more drag than lift. But ppl are using it for some reason, and keep telling me that it is smart to do...

"i open by giving my ass" outta pocket lines 💀

that p-47 tho lol

This and the A6M2 prove that nobody at gaijin actually plays war thunder below top tier

Think you can do a video on the comically overweight P-47N?

Can u link the video about flaps pls???

Tbh, this plane actually shock me when i start using it. I hate the early re 2000, because its armanent is hella awful compared to the c.202 line. Nobody knows how to fight me nor i know how to fight them, but slowly i started to learn and understand how to do it. And yeah, it left some good impression in me now.

Hey defyn You should play Seafire Fr 47. There haven't been a lot of videos on it recently, so it would be cool to see it played, especially with it now being at 5.7

"I open with giving people my ass, (...) sure, you're gonna get clapped". Hm.

11:36 Clearly DEFYNs game crashed and he didnt actually die

Also my game has been crashing a lot lately too. Just the last 2 days though never before has it ever once crashed.

Which is better, this or the P51H?

Can you please play the MB5 next?^^

Be careful about the 💣

it's JOEVER

The minegeschobe shells are bugged an seem to deal no damage to engines of aircraft

i know that you might not want to do this but i would really appreciate it if you had one game at the end were there is no commentary and it is just game sound

How do you get your plane's temperatures and fuel timer to be constantly showing in the top right? My temps only show up when they start to overheat, and my fuel only shows up when it's getting low. Is it in the game's settings?

Flaps in jet along with airbrakes
