THE SHOOTING RANGE 257: Strategic Triathlon / War Thunder 

Even war thunder couldn’t afford to play the b29 in this video

He-177 has 3xFritz X, check mate other planes

Congratulations, you have earned the gold medal. you have earned the privilege of having 43k repair cost and no one really use it because there’s better premium one that is faster and much lower repair at the same br thanks and have an average day.

Gajin lower them repair costs.

Tu 4 : "Idk why there is a competition , I am quite clearly the superior one"

Timestamps! 0:29 J-7E 3:53 Veriable Wing Sweep 8:09 Strategic Bombers 13:18 Hotline Have a nice day

Question : we will be able to test drive locked vehicles in orded to know if should climb that tree?

Strategic winner goes to gaijin itself: players of these bombers will soon out of silver lions for repairing, unless pay gaijin for a premium account.

Last time I was this early heavy bombers were still fun to play.

Q: will you add the skink m4 eventually? I think it could be good and fun.

Q: Will there be an IFV triathlon in the near future?

And the He-177 sticks with the absurd cost of just 38k silver lions for no reason.

Q: Early multi-turret tank triathlon, pretty please?

a triathlon about about bombers german mains: is it even a competition?

The game seems to offer so much, and I feel the crew mechanics and overall tedium always prevented me from getting into it sadly

Can we get lights for our vehicles like Headlights, spotlights, nav lights etc. i feel like it would be helpful and more fun in night modes

Q: Grinding SL has become very hard for a lot of players, how about a new game mode where your given a certain vehicle and an objective to complete? In the end, you get a certain amount of SL?

Winners of the triathlon Pricetag without explanation: germany Worst bombload: japan Least fun: tie

The hotlines are the most wholesome thing in War Thunder

Q: How to bomb well with dive bomber or fighter in Realistic battles? Have a nice day

Question: Will guys do a Climbing the Ranks on Britain Ground Forces? (And when will you do it?)

Q: Why do certain tanks get stuck on trenches, such as the Sherman? Aren't these suppose to go over trenches effectively?

Yes, HE 177 may be one of the best heavy bombers in game, but it is bloody priceful to repair.

Q: How can I use the flak 88mm.'s timed shells effectively against airplanes and if they can't be used well against them, what is their point?

Alright then, do Naval Heavy Cruiser Triathlon~

The bomber triathlon video cost +150k in repair

Q: when are you going to let console gamers download the camouflages/sights that are on the marketplace? normally to achieve camouflage when playing on console, it requires 699GE and lots of luck

Cpl_Hastings here, suggesting a bit of a story on the South African Armour development, now that the Concept 3 is in game as well. I served in the SANDF and have some experience with Ratel 20's, Rooikat's and the Olifant. Ex- Tactical Intelligence member, so we did the scouting while they did the biting ;)

Why did you forget about the P108 in the triathlon?

Maybe if the B24 is finishing last in every single category, it shouldnt be at that high of a BR

This game was made with love and passion! Keep it up! Best game of it's kind.

Thank you Gaijin for adding the "Load additional content in Hangar" option, a lifesaver for some of us in areas with poor Internet 🙏

Q: can we get jet bomber triathlons or metal beasts?

Q: How do repair costs work?

I’ve been wanting this for sooo long

I really think the naval aspect has a lot of value and is underrated and i really want to see more ships added especially the really big boys like the Yamato and the hood and the bismark, and i would love to see modes where you can have ships, tanks and aircraft. I think it could work if it was a coastal map similar to normandy or a map with a lot of big rivers and the capture points were set up so that they can be captured by both ships and tanks or maybe even have ships act as a support unit like aircraft do in tank RB. Either way, i really want to see the naval battles updated even more because i love them and i do believe that they have a lot of potential especially if they can join tanks and aircraft in large mixed battles.

Q: can you explain about control setting of tank and plan cuz I have trouble to my control

Do something about the repair cost of the He177 the plane is amazing but not worth it for RB

The Grief and Renzan were spectacular

War Thunder, add map voting before each match please. Everyone would love this.

I need some help with a problem I'm having. In the Hangar every time I switch to a new vehicle I have to redownload files/content. It only started recently and I tried re-downloading the game but it still happens. It takes a long time to make loadouts or even switch vehicles so any help would be appreciated.

Q: is there any Irish vehicles in the game???🤔🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

Q: Have you guys consider doing an "international tech tree" with vehicles from different countries on the same tree? It would be nice to have some unique vehicles from other countries like some Brazilian tanks/planes without the need for their own tree.

Virgin: Tu-4 and B-29 are too different from the rest to participate Chad: They're too strong for the competition

Q: where can we find the metal songs you use in this youtube channel?

Improve servers pls and bring in the next economy patch, rank 5 jet modules and rank 6 and 7 are getting too grindy

14:00 "...will add more realism.." Good joke Gaijin ! I did not know could have levitating bushes or could still aim with bushes all around the optics

Hello Gaijin. I'm quite a fan of your Naval battle modes. I just thought of a way to have aircraft carriers in battles. The player can't control the planes, only set course and give orders to attack. Players can select what angles the planes will attack from. The planes will be controlled by AI, which I'm sure you can manage as it can be quite similar to the AI attackers in Air battles. To make this fair for the ships, we can limit the number of planes in a squadron, or we can put a long cooldown. (There could also be limitations such as cannot land or take off when on fire, It takes time to Arm, Spot, and take off planes, cannot perform any of the actions while maneuvering, etc) The addition of aircraft carriers might cause some problems as the fight will now be more long-range, and it will need a lot of balancing. I just thought this would be a cool addition to the game, Thanks for reading.

What if there was the AC-130H/U/J? That would be awesome!

Question : Can You Tell A Pages of History A Japanese Mustang?

War Thunder: Strat bomber = Strategic Bomber Players: Strat bomber = Stratospheric Bomber

Sooooooo, the oldest bomber comes in last. Color me shocked. The B-24D (bizarrely the second highest BR amongst all the American Heavy Bombers) is 2-3 years older than any of the other 3. Since the B-24J isn’t in the game it would have made dramatically more sense to use the B-17G or even the Privateer.

Q:will you add any new nations to the game I would love to see Canada as a major power or at least the split off from the British tree like South Africa

I would give ANYTHING to watch your players play against each other. Sir Narrator will you do?

14:41 "Hello there" "General Kenobi"

Notice how france isn't even in the competition for the strategic bomber since the only one they have is DOO DOO

Hate when top tier murders you when you're trying to land in an H4K6.

Q: will we see more variable wing sweep aircraft in War Thunder like the Tornado or even the bigger tu-160 or b1 bombers?

the frame at 13:14 makes the german bomber look bigget than all the other planes combined

Q: When can you do climbing the ranks with more naval and climbing the ranks the the chinese tech tree?

13:12 Holy Maccaroni I just thought that was a size comparison 😂😂

is it intensional that mouse aim restricts the endpoint for the elevator?

Ps4 has a problem...i cant rangefind when i use only mouse and keyboard. Only when i plug in my controller

13:57 **evil jumbo noises**

Q: what ship in the game has the biggest amount of weapons on it? Being either main cannons, secondary cannons, AA guns, torpedo tubes, mine layers or depth charges

Question: can it be possible for you to buff tanks armor, certain tanks for their br might to decently but 4brs higher its starts to get very trick even if you flank or hide

Gaijin please tell use more about SAP and AP bomb. Do they actually pen the target?

Some really cool jets at the beginning, too bad I'll never get to try them out due to the now hellish tech tree grind

Hello Gaijin here is a quick question: Why does my missile on the Harrier GR.1 never reach the target i lock why does it always explode mid air before reaching its target, Thank you.

Q: Could you do triathlon in two engined bombers including t18b1?

Q: when will you do a rank 3 bomber triathlon?

Q: can you add option to sort of put off additional armor like rubber covering of tracks on t55am1?

Question: what is the best way to make a quick and decisive fight with the P-51-D-20 Mustang?

Would love to see a wheeled vehicle triathlon including centauros, m1128, radkampfwagon and others.

I wonder if they can add a helicopter v tank mode, that would be fun to play. Love the voice though, keep up the good work!

I know it's not going to happen, but image F-16's and F/A-18's in the game battling Chinese aircraft. That would be so much fun!

It seems they avoided mentioning that the F-111 was the first swing wing jet actually out in service

It is a year now, will we every see more cinematics like Legends for example, we had the legends ( spitfire, Bf109's, IL2's and T34's) will we ever see more the more of these ?

Hello Bruce! What’s that shield like object with white cross on the back of some modern tanks?

The idea to feature in the game put MBTs as a default state after firing to raise slightly the gun, like IRL, and maybe put(even in low graphics) the ability to see on the commander machine gun if outside of the thank to see the bullets dropping like in planes

Could we get a pages of history on the PBJ? I'd like to know why it was called that; as I understand it the B-25 was only ever called the B-25, and the filled-in nose with MGs and a tank gun was just one of many modifications made in the field sometimes.

"Strategic bombers need strategic targets" "Fighters need targets to fight with" "Interceptors need something to intercept" "And war thunder needs subscribers to make awesome videos"

Can we have a "last heavies" triathlon with the 7.7 heavy tanks? Would love to see the maus, conqueror, m103, amx-50 surbiasse, and is4m duke it out.

Hi Gaijin! When you are in a Tank Battle and sometimes it says "Artillery fire" when one or more enemy tanks request artillery support. What is the requirements for the text to print out? I have always been curious.

Video idea, I would love to see a comparison of different version of the american AIM-7s, We now have C,D,Es. I would love to see how much different they are.

Q: when will we be able to test drive tanks/planes from diffrent nations/BR sets so we can easily choose what tech tree will we grind for?

Hello. Do you have any advice for the Mosquito FB Mk VI? I cannot seem to do well in it. Also wasn't the FB Mk VI version equipped with a larger payload than 1000lbs? Thank you.

Question: Hey there, im kinda new to jets and i always bite the dust specially with the J29A, whats a good strategy for that plane?

Suggestion, can you make the big aircraft cannon battle? Candidate: il2 37/su6(am42/s71f), hs-129b3,T18B2, ki109, Xa-38, PBJ-1H,p.108a serie 2,tempest vickers, or me410(BK5 50mm) and the mosquito FB XIII 57mm, week 36

I‘m disapointed that during the triathlon, i didn‘t see the B-29 and Tu-4 in the background, „observing“.

that first clip with the sagittario 2 was great. you already removed its high pen ammo making that impossible now

Question: Why does the soviet BR-365A Shell have an easier time punching through angles than the BR-365K Shell, which on paper has more penetration power even against angled armor plate?

Hello 👋. I have a question, what would you say is the best f104, or the best f 104’s. I’m using the J variant and want to try out other types.

Q: Planes in GRB have a really low spawn cost for how much powerful they are, especially at higher BR's, are there any changes programmed to fix this?

Funny how the only one that saw any real form if service got last

Q: why do the strv 122A and B have such high repair cost?

When will Gaijin add the Douglas/On Mark B-26K Counter-Invader to the game. I've been wanting to see that plane in WT for years, given that roughly 40 were built and they saw service during the Congo Crisis and the Vietnam War.

Question: Will there be animations for loader when loading in open top vechicles?

Question: I was going fast at 500 kpm in my Hellcat plane with one wing on my left side and I start having more control to the my plane the more faster I go the more control I get

Q: will more hull mgs be added in the near future on ww2 tanks? Specificly on tanks like m4 sherman(s), tiger1/2, t34(s) and panther(s)?
