THE SHOOTING RANGE 197: Mid-tier medium tanks - who's the best? / War Thunder 

00:31 Metal Beasts 04:24 Pages of History 09:34 Tank Triathlon 15:04 Hotline

When Bruce says The Shooting Range, it’s like he speaks in cursive

Viewers: Please fix the multi-function menu Gaijin: lmao just get good

pages of history suggestions: 1. Col. Hesus A. Villamor, Filipino fighter pilot, also the first one to shoot down a zero and two japanese bombers with a PAAC P-26A-34 2. Hans Ulrich-Rudel, Ju-87G tank killer ace

the centurion can oneshot a panther frontally but i guess they dont want to here

Tank Triathlon Winner: Panther Panther History: *_I N T E R E S T I N G_*

10:06 Looks like a Bulldog under 400 PSI presure

Player:Gaijin can you please fix the multi-function menu? Gaijin:We'll think about it And so they said no, they do not want us to live a superior life... Reminds me of papa Joseph

SLPPRJ M/95 apfsds? That looks like the result of smashing your forehead against a keyboard, repeatedly.

I would love to see a combined tech tree of polish hungarian czechoslovakian and romanian vechiles in war thunder.

Here's an interesting story for the Shooting Range : Pierre Le Gloan, a curious French ace who obtained his victories against Axis and Allied planes.

15:13 The answer Bruce gave about the multifunction-menu is just partially true. I´ll give you a concrete example. Airplanes separate engine management: Toggle on bia the menu: The separate engine management is indeed switched on, but the menu doesn´t disappear, so a part of the screen remains blocked and also all other keyboard inputs are blocked. If you close the menu manually: Obviously the menu disappears and the normal keyboard inputs are recovered, BUT the engines return to global mode. At least to me it makes no sense.

What about a pages of history about Hans-Joachim Marseille, the "Star of Afrika"

0:22 Gaijin: Metal beasts, a top light tank from Sweden Me an intellectual: Metal beasts, a top thicc fast boi from Sweden

Sherman comes first in two catagories, second place. Nothing you ever do makes sense gaijin.

When will the T-90 be implemented in the game

When they put more effort in their youtube channel then their game:

Oh man! I just happened to read Saburo Sakai's biography--Samurai--about his battle with 15 hellcats yesterday!

Hi guys, i've got a question for you: Have you planned to add SPA Vehicles like the german Hummel or the american M7 Priest?

Add-on armor in forme of sand bags that will offer 30 mm-40 mm, but only for 1 to 2 hits? Great job with the videos btw :)

Can we maybe get a heavy bomber triathlon?

Let me ask you something. When do we get the Italian and French fleet in the game?

love the new way you show the ammo

Bruh when they don’t use apds on the cent

Are you sure about the flaps though? Sure, landing flaps allow for a lower stall speed which translates into shorter landings, but flaps also generate a lot of lift, which decreases the brakes effectiveness, and since those generate a lot more breaking power than the small drag generated by the flaps you should retract your flaps once you touch the ground. Am I wrong? Is this modelled in the game or not?

Can we have a top tier helicopter triathlon from all nations?

M4A3 Top speed 41 km/h Panther A 55 km/h How in the hell M4A3 won, on the road? o.O Br-365A and soviet APHEBC shells still has no explanation why those shells halves the effective armor on every target.

I know you can't discuss possible new in-game content until official announcements are made, but it would be nice to see some Sukhoi jets added to the game instead of the MiGs getting all the glory at higher tiers.

12:47 Whan the medium has better armor compared to the heavy

Finally a pages of history from the axis side

Will console players get the multi-function menu, it would be really helpful

I've got a question. In the game in top tier by tanks and helicopters for example the leopard 2a5 and the tiger, witch are state of the art modern maschines, who are still in use. On the other part we have the mig21 from the 1960s. The only country where they are still in use is India. So why haven't we in the game at top tier planes like the Eurofighter?

6:29 forget to mention Zeros and Ki-84 catch up with everything?

you guys did a segment on Saburo Sakai?!?! i love you guys, the dude is a legend and one of the best

AirRBEC when? Community is missing that mode

When I was a kid Saburo Sakai was one of my heroes after reading "Samurai!". I think the story of how he lost his eye was more inspiring. After getting hit in the head with a .30 cal round he flew his damaged zero more than 500 miles back to Rabaul while keeping himself conscious by touching the wound in his head to induce pain. I think the left side of his body was paralyzed too. He's such a badass that after he landed he went to the command post to report in before seeking medical assistance.

Ha... the archer is slow to turn around Not when i tokyo drift it around a corner and pop a 76mm shot into things

glad to see you're able to work from home, stay safe and keep em coming

1:37 you mean stridsfordon 90

I wish the Great nation of Italia had 5.0 to 5.7 tanks. (any past or future premiums do/will not count)

I've seen many complaints about the high repair cost. But why not lower the free repair time instead?

Can you please add headlights to tanks that can't see in the dark for the third time? :)

Will we ever see the B-52 or the Tu-160 bombers? Attempt-2

Good as always! Keep up the good work!

hay guys from war thunder can you pleas make a segment wear you explain how and why the repaircost makes for a good balancing factor ,or why we even need a repair cost in the game

In 1999 a Serbian pilot called Milenko Pavlovic fought 1 on 16 ( he was flying a Mig 29 ) against 16 F 16s, also his radar did not work at all, he died that day in combat in the skies over Valjevo, his last words were, You will not die, I will.

when Bruce stops narrating is when I stop playing the game. Thank you Bruce!

Will we see active protection mechanics in the game at some point in the future? I think that is what the big orb on top of the CV 90120 is.

Do you guys have an estimate for how long it shall be before we get the bigger carriers for top tier planes?

Video suggestion: Sdkfz 234 Pages of history and tank triathlon

Hey gaijin will you someday add the char 2c the biggest tank ever put into service (I think)

I like calling the CV90120 the glass rail-cannon

Could you pls do a"The messerschitt bf109 family" video Attempt#3

To be fair, the Centurion's armor is more reliable than one would think, it confidently bounces shells at medium and longer ranges... Most people shoot the UFP and fail to pen

6:25: Hence the nickname “Baka Bomb”

For landings, as soon as you touch down, RETRACT your flaps. This will decrease the lift generated by your wings, and in turn put more weight on the brakes, making them more effective. I do this in real life as well when performing short field landings.

When are Super carriers coming

Gaijin, I have a question about every P-51 and two about the P-51D-5. The question about the P-51s is: Why are the elevator wrong? Every P-51 in the game has to small elevator flaps, they reached until the end. And the questions about the P-51D-5 are: Is the cockpit finished, because it feautures not as many details like the cockpit from the P-47 or the P-40. The other question is: Why is there a P-51D-5 with late production tail in the picture of the vehiclecard, but the D-5 you can play has an early tail?

Will you make something about helicopter enduring confrontation, because it's absolutely unplayable for new players in helicopter.

always love watching keep it up bruce :)

No mention of the Sherman's stabiliser? Makes a very big difference! I'd rank it first due to that in all honesty

You should add that dense smoke from the fume extractor after the shell leaves the modern barrel

Also why does the multi function menu not work on console even though I think it would benefit most here

Paradox page of history : On April 20, 1943 a mixed formation of about thirty between Macchi C.205 and MC202 of the 1st Wing, led by Major Di Bernardo and Captain Nioi, faced an allied hunting group consisting of about sixty Spitfires over the skies of the Sicilian Channel [31]. After a violent fight, the Macchi claimed the killing of seventeen Spitfires, against the loss of only two fighters [32]. According to the phonogram kept between the operational reports of the Air Force of Sicily (message n.1832), "fifteen Spitfires are to be considered certainly shot down, fourteen of which are seen ending up at sea plus one crashed ashore between Capo Bon and Capo Mustafà". There is no mention in the British records of such British hunting losses in the events of that day. The Italian losses are confirmed, pilots Andreoli, Fanelli and Borreo, the latter landed off the field in Tunisia while the claims of eleven Italian fighters shot down are not reflected

Hello Gaijin: Can you please make helicopter battle by br.

A rewind feature in the replays so it is easier to see our favourite moments

When will you guys add more Finnish camouflages or vehicles?

I've saved at least 20 battles whilst achieving god mode. My best is capturing a point destroying 2 tanks with a battle rating of over 5 levels higher than me and successfully holding the point for the game. Got another one where I went head to toe with a Rooikat successfully destroying it with my M22- being a South African, and a combat vet, it serverly stole much of my joy with that one. I'll put some together and send them in. I'll ask my kid to do so as well , he loves getting god mode with planes

When will players get the option to share stuff with squad mates in as axemple events are going on ?

I feel like the tank triathlons should he held in an actual battle. Say they would do 5 to 7 battles with each tank and see which preforms better, like zones captured, tanks destroyed, survivability/armor , and over all effectiveness. For the zone captured and survivability could be how long you could defend the point from incoming tanks and brawl capabilities. The Tanks destroyed portion could be about how may tanks were destroyed and its one shot capability. And the overall effectiveness could be a summary of the above.

Can we get a Aircraft Triathlon "best ground Support jet"?

IS-2 makes quick work of any TIGER I or Panther to step into the field. Aim for the center of the front plate using APHE, and fire. Tiger II’s are your match. Aim for the gun itself.

When will you implement the multi function menu to consoles?

The American entry for the mid tier medium triathlon should have been the T25. Somehow some of the often mocked Sherman series variant got their BR increased including the M4A3E8 resulting on the said tank now on-par with the likes of the Centurion and Panther. Weird huh?

Why does the multi function menu not exist in console even though it is most needed for example I cannot Change the sniping range

you should do this challenge with heavy tanks and light tanks

Love the Show. Can we have Pages of History with the Sturer Emil or the Dicker Max sometime?

Will we ever see the addition of higher tier bombers, such as the b-52 stratofortress

so, you're telling me all those times my sherman should have out performed the panthers?

Hans really do he vibin’ doe

Tiger: Im one of the best heaviest Tanks in the Game! Panzer 4: But you're nothing without me! Someone: Amateurs! Tiger: What was that, Punk? Panther: AMATEURS!

Also can you tell us the story about the New Zealand army capturing the crew of a captured Matilda

Hey I think it would be awesome to see the Strümtiger added to the game I understand when the game was younger in its days it would probably be OP but now with all the new vehicles added to the game I think it would be cool to see it at 6.0-7.0 depending on how you guys determine how the armor and its pen would work.

Maybe add more detail to the oceans? I'd love to see storms and waves!

I don’t think that’s what the guy asking about flaps meant. He meant “do you brake faster with flaps up or down on the runway” something I’m curious of as well

A suggestion. A destroyer triathlon between 5 nations.

In one of the battles I had with the tiger h1 a Sherman sa50 shot through my mg on the hull even though it just created a hill and had no time to aim

I did not expect the panther A that I love to be number 1

If u added the jumbo it would have made it first place easy as its a good panther and tiger killer with the good reload and mobility

Idea for next video: tank triathlon: best IFV

I wish I could play this game rn but my PCs power supply went kaput

3:34 nice the unfinish tank with the mantelet stay in position when gun gun move up

No one will ever complain how the panther won. It might be the most popular tank on RB next to the tiger

Finnally something about Saburo

17:15 but ia funny *Puma noises*

12:23 Maybe this lets Gaijin realise the Panther's BR is too low....

I like youre new Thumbnails

Bruce's voice keeps me happy these times :D

Wow i didnt expect the gun that long

this is really weird.... I JUST finished watching a documentary about the day the Japanese pilot lost vision in his eye by a 7.62 from a bomber gunner, as well as a ace vs ace combat he had. and why certain things happened during the combat. interesting watch.
