THE SHOOTING RANGE 168: The best anti-air? / War Thunder 

What if gaijin increased 'teamwork' rewards by 20x as well as 'Assist' and 'Tank rescuer"?

gaijin : talking about A.speed B.quickest kill C.fastest radar lock me : so, who's the fastest in turret treverse ???

How come in game chat “ > “ always turns into “ ] ” ?

so if Stormer is not the best SPAA then why does it costs 4 times more than ADATS or 2S6?

The best SPAAS? The 1.3 French one of course.

Bruce:”It has eight of the fastest missiles” Starstreaks: Am I a joke to you?

I: "no see Japan AA" I: Where is Japan AA with AAM? Gajin: Yyy... Eemm... Probably in future? I: ;(

The british stormers’ starstreaks are famous for being incredibly accurate, the game just fails at showing that, god forbid britain has an advantage

Teach us how to aim Anti Air, especially heavier single firing guns like the 40mm Bofors

Ah yes, the glorious british SPAA, the Stromer. I think there might have been a typo in the script

Everyone: Self-Propelled Anti-Air. ADATS: Self-Propelled Anti-ANYTHING!

Bring back the Maus and the other deleted German vehicels !

Hi! Could we get some WW2 Stuff? Since there has been more focused om Modern stuff this year.

Could the night battles be more frequent in the future ? I haven't really used my night vision system yet because of the rarity of the night.

When i put my tail gunner’s view in fp the tail of my plane is invisible, how can i slove that??

How come the Gepard with the stinger modification is not in the game?

You missed a great opportunity to say "the missile knows where it is" on that sidam review

Speaking of top tier spaa, when are you going to give one to Japan like you said you would?

A: The Heatseaking Missiles dont need a delay to get ready to fire unless it is the first time powering up the system, in which case it takes more then 5 seconds and more along the lines of 10 minutes for the seaker to cool down to operating temperatures. In the case of a battle ready powered up SAM system, Jet or Helicopter arming the missiles is as easy as selecting them, no delay required since the missile is already preped beforehand B: The Tracking systems on all Radar AA is extremly underperforming in this game compared to the real thing C: Missiles such as those used on the Tunguska ingame spiral out of control past 2km, this does not happen in the real thing D: C and B make it excesively hard for Radar SAMs to engage targets accurately, those were 2 easy targets to shoot down, the 1st missile should have killed them with all of the vehicles. but because none of the systems is implemented properly some vehicles had to shoot several times, not to mention the utter uselesnes of the Stormer currently Also, Mistral Missiles and other heatseakers are currently overperforming, they should be able to lose lock since their tracking isnt perfect, curently this does not happen and the only way to evade them is Pull enought Gs to break lock (good luck trying that with a heli) or dumping flares prematurely before the missile is even launched (oh wait jets dont get flares)

When is airfield AA going to get a buff? I'm fkin tired of being spawn camped and strafed as I'm trying to rearm and repair.

The actual answer for the last question is smoking. Years of chain smoking.

I’ll save you some time. *2S6 obviously*

Bring back Air RB enduring confrontation (Attempt 5)

Who knows, now they tested the stormer, maby just maby, they will fix it and add the laser system for the missile. BECAUSE IT NEEDS IT!

WHENS THE COLD WAR BRITISH FIGHTERS GETTING RELEASED

I really hope there is an alternative to the Stormer HVM in the works, as this vehicle only performs consistently well against helicopters moving predictably at great range. The missiles travel far too fast to accurately strike close targets, and this is compounded by their exhaust obscuring the optics for the first second or two of the munitions flight. I tried to like it, then tried to tolerate it. Ultimately I've retired it from my lineup. It regularly disappoints both the user and their team. It is better for all involved to not field the vehicle, as doing so may create the assumption among teammates that the friendly SPAA will keep the sky clear. The reality is that any alternative available is in practical effect a better option. TL;DR - Fielding a Stormer HVM is detrimental to the team, as it not only deprives said team of a tank, but supplies them an SPAA that cannot reliably perform its role.

Can you add the british Tall boy bomb that it was used in the lancaster?

Ooh I know the best Anti-air! It's the Wirbelwind!

Big like to Bruce for such an articulate professional amazing voice overs. I'm Simultaneous Interpreter myself and I learn allot from you.

Swedish tree when?! attempt #40

Now you just have to balance the spaa's making the adats 11.0 and decreasing the br of the spaa's that didn't make into the top 3

"Best SPAA" ..... Calling it now, not the british one XD

The sabot at beginning should not be spinning because the Abrams uses a smooth bore barrel

I like how they put kind tiger 6.7 vs is6 which is a 7.8 i think mmmm plis ilfix mach making

Warrior Vs M3 Bradley comparison attempt #4

Hey Gaijin, is a gamemode where it takes 3 people to control a vehicle (Driver, gunner and commander) without sharing the keyboard, possible in the near future?

did italy really need another OP AA?? and even an AA that was never built like that IRL?? noo!!!!!

Didn’t even mention adats bs 900mm pen - cancer machiene

Hey there gajin, are u planing to add the bf109 k14 at some point? (3rd time i ask :) )

When will we see a line of British Armoured Cars and Wheeled Tanks in War Thunder? The United Kingdom and Commonwealth has dozens of machines that could be added in War Thunder spread from rank 1 to 7! It is surprising that a nation that used armoured cars so much only has two AA versions and the Daimler in the standard tech tree!

Yea this vehicle is objectively better but we're too lazy to add more brs so 10.0 it is

Do a Pages of history of the "brazilian air force", a important army that help the allies in italy.

With the plethora of realistic historical vehicles in War Thunder, have you ever thought about making some sort of historical RTS using the same basis? Not as an MMO RTS, of course, but one with proper single-player campaigns, featuring the battles that made the map locations you already have famous? Could be awesome!

3rd try, when will we get the baracuda, albacore, and fulmar in british tech tree , or johnson Paul defiant as a premium. It's in need of torpedo bombers

Any chance we will see the A-4 Skyhawks? They were incredibly important attack planes for a large number of countries.

Gaijin, could you please increase experience points recieved by killing a tank with heli (at least to 1/2 of experience points recieved by shooting down another helicopter)? Now it's such a grind to research next helicopter. And what about splitting (German, Italian, Japanese and Chinese) vehicles to fractions (Allies, Axis, NATO and states in its sphere of influence, Warsaw pact and states in its sphere of influence), that they have fought for (at least in SB)? For example Italian R3s - NATO, Italian Sherman - Allies, Japanese Sherman - NATO, T-34-85 - Allies, Warsaw pact... If that will be implemented Germans will be able to get more Soviet planes, helicopters and even tanks!

Plans for updating the aircraft carriers to modern carriers like : nimitz class or the kitty hawk class??

Ok let me guess, ... ADATS, ADATS and maybe, hmm, another ADATS?

I know you guys don't read every comment anymore but I would like War Thunder/Gaijin to implement these quality of life feature : 1. Per aircraft convergence setting, fuel count, and bomb fuse. 2. I would also like a more specific convergence like 550 meter for example and more specific bomb fuse time like 2.5 sec and maybe a more specific plane fuel count between the lowest and the 2nd one(this one might be for balance reason so... maybe a no) 3. Tank and plane lights for aesthetic reason, can maybe even be used to blind those infrared/night vision user in the new update 4. Per aircraft bullet ammo information, like muzzle velocity and other stuff, for instances specific information for like say I bullet, API, APHE and other stuff 5. Add the ability to reset default Decals on some vehicle that comes with the default historical decal in case someone misplaced it or delete the decal on accident 6. Add the ability to grind out basic crew to expert, I mean you guys already have the system for the ace crew, why not both? 7. Thanks in advance for making such a great game PS: -Wellington Mk X engine are wrong, speed are worse than the Mk 3 and had .3 br higher. mk 3 uses the Bristol Hercules XI 14 cylinder radial engine which is correct according to the wikipedia, but the mk X uses Bristol Hercules VI cylinder radial engine which is worse than the mk 3 one and according to the wikipedia the wellington mk X uses the "Wellington B Mark X The most widely produced variant of which 3,804 were built. It was similar to the Mark III except for the 1,675 hp (1,250 kW) Hercules XVIII powerplant. The Mark X was the basis for a number of Coastal Command versions. A total of 3,803 were built at Chester and Blackpool." -Thanks for fixing the female voice Attempt (8)

Could thermals or at least NV be stock since it's such a huge advantage on night maps?

Top Tier without spending money is nearly impossible and definitely not enjoyable because you always have to watch your Silver Lions. I get 600 - 1 000 Silver Lions for an Assist and 800 - 1 600 Silver Lions for a Kills. My ammunition costs 600 Silver Lions per shot and my tank over 8 000. I have to destroy (at least) 8 tanks to compensate my own destruction. Is this enjoyable??!

If you would please explain the evolution of eye ? ? ? It starts simple and gets better, or what? Leave phony theories aside and continue with this awesome game!

When yore too early to say anything funny from the video.

Hi, could you make it so that which crewmember(s) has NVD is viewable in the X-ray viewer? Similar to how gun stabilizers are displayed on the breach and barrel. Thanks!

Also I know its been almost or a month since update 1.91 but why did you have to remove the Maus, the flackpanzer, and the Tiger II 10.5 cm from the tech trees of people who already had the game before the update. Y'all could have taken it out for players that got the game after the update. It could have been like what y'all did with the French and Japanese reserve tanks, in which y'all took them out of the game for new players that got the game after that update. Well that's my rant, hope I get a response

Take out us , ussr, uk , fr, it, ge radar spaa to compare them Gaijin : say the us one is better Me : ofc because he never existed with this configuration , all ppl say it with proof but you dont care about it

as a guy who only really plays AA I think the tunguska's best suit is it's firing rate of the bullets which they didn't even look at

when will gaijin answer real questions in the shooting range, as opposed to questions that dont answer REAL community questions? Like " When are you going to decompress BR's" or " When are we getting a quality of life patch like you promised ages ago?" or " When will you make this astronomic amount of RP for a top tier tank actually reasonable?" My squadmates and I regularly get 20+ kills in an RB tank game. usually someone gets about 12 themselves, and the other 8 are split between 2 other people, yet the 12 kill guy barely manages 16k ish RP with premium and a premium tank.

Mind getting rid of the new sound effect when an explosion happens or when AAA shells burst... I'm talking about that firecracker sound, just cause China invented firecrackers and we got China this patch doesn't mean I wanna hear the firecracker, its annoying.

Thank you Gaijin, I found this Hotline section better)

Honestly that AA comparison is nonsense. They claim the Tunguska comes in 3rd in engaging a target while it can shoot instantly. The preaiming of the mistrals is also nonsense. Not a good comparison.

The missile knows where it is...

Hey Bruce is War Thunder ever planning to add the M109A6 PALADIN to the game?

Mogami? Hipper? When will the reviews happen for all the new ships in game? (Also keep up the good work Bruce!)

can you make a danish pack with the leopard one and try searching on operation bøllebank danish military

Premiums spotted, Auto dislike... No redeeming qualities.

Will you add the Maus and Tiger 2 105 as squadron vehicles?

Why is Russia put with Germany and Japan put with the US and Britain in tank RB?

These episodes should all have the same title: "Hey! Check out all these cool vehicles and modifications and ammo upgrades that you will likely never get to try because you didn't happen to discover and join this game almost 10 years ago! Good luck with your excruciating grinding through lower tiers getting destroyed again and again by players with years of experience on you, only to give up at tier 3 or 4 vehicles!"

What would you say about introducing (at least in Sim Battles) the sun blinding effect that would add much more strategy and thinking to one's flying? You know, attacks from the side of the sun etc.

I would really like to see hungarian tanks in game!

Howdy Gaijin, TankSteel here, I gotta question about a certain vehicle I'd like to see implemented. The Sd.Kfz. 222. Considering you have the necessary assets to implement it, why don't you? I'm sure the WWII fans would love it. -TS45
