War Thunder: Spitfire Mk IIB [Super Hot!] 

Hey guys, we're flying an early spitfire today! A plane that has severe Heat issues, and although she's a beauty, i dont like them this hot ;) Hope you enjoy! and dont forget to like, comment and subscribe for more. Have a great day! :)

WTF?! 96% throttle without WEP and Oil is red? What happened to this plane?!

I already mastered the art of managing the ovwrheating without mec, the speed in just 90% is enough for me just drop to 0% when diving and bring it back to 100% when doing climb maneuvers

I hate those things. They are dangerous in the hands of a noob and deadly in the hands of an expert player.

only real ace pilot can control the engine

HEYF AGGOT. TEMPEST MK2

This plane literally spitting fire from its engine :v

I'm here to kick some ass and chew bubblegum,And I'm all out of gum No but seriously nice vid as always

I’m really liking the spitfires But I feel like I’m betraying the fatherland

I have a theory. Maybe the early spitfires overhead so much so that when they finish the battle they can use the heated H2O to make some bloody good brrrrrrrrrritish tea.

Used to be my favourite spitfire until they introduced hot tea as a cooling system instead of cold water.

I was going against 3 bf109 E-4s in that plane I managed to kill 2 heavily damaged one and than my engine died -_-

You should re review the dornier 335 b2 ever since 1.77 it has became a beast that can turn almost better then fw 190s and the 3 mk 103s will kill a tu4/b29 from 1 mile away with 3-6 shots. It's insane and now it retains climbing energy even better. Still turns like a freight train but who cares. If you're last alive at 5.7 in a 335 you're already dead

I love the spitfires but in many cases are too op especialy the mk 14,22 etc.

So many memories! This is the first plane I actually "got good" at. I had already unlocked tier 3 in most nations but for some reason I came back to the spitfire mk 2b. And I realized that I somehow had a natural feel for the Hispanos. Although they were inconsistent, I would get long 0.7 km snipes with them, which was very satisfying. And although I didn't know it at the time, this is the plane in which I first experimented with energy traps - entering a maneuver with less energy and leaving with more - and I was forced to energy trap anyway, because everything else outran me. So yeah. Also, the P-51D-5 is feeling very un-loved :(

Im that Marko19232427 that you crited my MIG BK in water place and I also died from overheating as you also did

Hey Jengar will you ever become a tanker or are you strictly a pilot?

Haven't played the spitfire since like 2015 and holy shit are they different now lol!

Thanks for flying it out mate, awesome vid as usual. I am not flying this out (only in Air RB only cause overheating doesn't have much effect in Tank RB) until Gaijin fixes this sh*t.

Got sick of being killed by p 59 and spits so now im grinding spits 😂.

Hello Jengar! Nice video! :)

first

Flying them during the battle for Britain event I realized the over heating issue is only an issues at low speeds. If you manage to stay above 350 km/h the issue goes away, so climb in a shallow angle (10-13 degrees tops) and you can go faster and climb better. It's tricky but I was able to outclimb 109s that had air spawn.

Why is it private ?

Can’t stand the spits They changed the FM a few patches ago and the are so squirrely it’s unbearable. Not to me,toon the overheating problem.

Hi Jengar. I disagree with you about this plane, though that's perhaps because I see her as a low-BR learner plane that I never expect to survive in anyway. So, I never have an extended problem with overheating because I don't climb in her much beyond 8-10,000ft. I have started using MEC in other planes, but she has no propeller pitch nor a usable radiator (IIRC). I also think that you are neglecting the "turn the engine completely OFF" trick when you have a spare 5-10 seconds, as it cools the engine down pretty much instantly to usable levels. Plus, I don't use WEP all the time in her; shes not a Fw 190 nor a P-47 and she doesn't really need it when I am flying below 10,000ft. WEP for catching people, for maintaining a climb, for pushing through a loop, but then turn it off for the actual dogfighting. Admittedly, you're a much better pilot who plans on surviving the match having gotten multiple kills, but I managed 7 kills in Air RB in a Spit Vb which is not too different. I landed twice for that result though... best and prettiest dogfighting I have ever done, with evening sun and contrails at ~6,000ft. :D

squad has arrived

I’ve probably been spoiled by my german planes but I tend to consider anything below 100 rounds per gun for cannons smaller than 30mm to be abysmal ammo capacity. It would help if I had better trigger discipline of course...but when you’re used to being able to just fire whenever you want

i’ve been able to wep the whole match by climbing at 15 degrees with the radiator at 100% through the duration of my climb and then dropping the radiator to around 50 to 60% once in a combat situation. I recommend anyone that uses mec to do the same thing.

Wow.....ive actually never had a problem with overheating.....its pretty easy to manage that problem, just remember to let loose your ammo early and get a kill or two, go to the airfield and then come back, this tactic never got me killed by my own overheating

What's up guys😁

I wonder if u take minimum fuel, would that help? U gonna over heat anyway.... So make it run out of fuel before over heat, and less fuel means better horse power to weight ratio

*begins chanting Focke-Wulf internally*

MkIa is better

ME 109's also suffer from this ridiculous overheating. I have had the Me 109 Trop overheat on Norway map....

You should play the Martin 167 - A3

I wait for the day, when they do this with the 109s, because they are really op. And nobody say that they are don't. They are op as hall.
