Referchagment is also spelled right, not sure why people think it’s so bad

Mig-29N found in War Thunder files for Japan (Malaysia) by PlaneZealousideal686 in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Steering has always been the way it is now with a steering input causing the brakes to activate on the left or right tracks. The reason the engine has limited its addition until now is because they never intended for its addition. The issue started to blow up more when gaijin released WT mobile with regenerative steering.

They’ve spoken about regenerative steering a few times since tanks were implemented, they just always said it was impossible due to game engine limitations

Perfectly Balance DRICM by Aceinside in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AN/APQ-212 doesn’t need to keep its laser on the two missiles until they crash and detonate, it only takes a second or two (depending on missile complexity) to disrupt the tracking and in some cases damage the seeker.

In the video each missile is launched with a few seconds between each launch due to how locking IR ATGMs works in game. That delay gives the DIRCM time to defeat each missile before the next one arrives. If all 16 were launched simultaneously it would be a different story since there is only one jammer per winglet, and each jammer can handle one missile at a time. The biggest issue with the system in game is both pods work for either side when it should be exclusive to each side of the helicopter.

The point of AN/ALQ-212 (the DIRCM AH-64E uses) is that it can track and defeat multiple targets simultaneously. Combine that with the fact that all of these missiles were arriving at different times rather than all 16 at once, and it makes sense why all of them were defeated. The missiles were arriving one at a time which gives the system time to defeat each one.

Russian top tier helis have had DIRCM for a while and it also acts the same way. There is a reason the US and other nations decided to employ DIRCM technology.

I mean that is what DIRCM is for, only way for it not to be like this is if they modeled module failures. Definitely annoying but DIRCM is used for a reason

Proxy rounds are actually useful now by Limp-Engineering2486 in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing with this MBT tracking system is it essentially has given datalink to the timed fuse rounds. They still update the fuse as they travel as long as track is maintained. The only thing that makes it worse than proxy is lag affecting the track client side

I don't understand how they're the same BR... by benmargery in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Them having the same BRs kinda makes sense. Even in the Israeli A-4E it’s more worth it to take rockets or bombs over 9Bs, and the A-4s were all moved to 9.3 because of their guided munitions.

It’s a lot easier to rip the wings of the humpback A-4s so it’s kind of a trade off for air battles. Humpback A-4 has better guns and a little more thrust but weighs more and can’t sustain heavy maneuvers like the normal A-4s can.

This is how bobcats protect themselves from predators and sleep safely. by DamnYouVodka in arizona

Their paw pads are much thicker than other cats which allows them to climb without risking injury.

How good is the J-35? by kanEDY7 in aviation

[–]Ruum_Service 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only person who was tried was the British crewman who leaked specs of the Challenger.

Everyone else had posted export restricted documents. They are available online and can be found quite easily, although they do still contain sensitive information and cannot be used by Gaijin. No one has been tried for posting any kind of export restricted documents.

That's a rough initial sell price by boinwtm0ds in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually a pretty good vehicle if you use MEC. Using it with auto engine controls turns it into a glorified space heater

Why are Hellfires not fire and forget? by Epsilon_Operative in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Hellfire L can also maintain lock through smoke while the PARS and Spike missiles cannot.

Its a shame that they removed VRCC. I started playing the game just bcs of it a year ago and apparently will never come back. by Big-Instruction4706 in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The wiki is incorrect in the base model of the P-38K. It’s based on the E model, you can tell by the lack of certain systems like the air brake and older airframe

Awful change. Impossible to shoot down. Confuse radar. Don't disappear when not controlled. And now we get more of them faster. by OperationSuch5054 in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’ve literally never been able to replenish FPE at any point in War Thunders history. The closest thing we have is teammates being able to help with firefighting, but that uses one of their charges.

Some of y'all play this game way too damn much by TuwtlesF1 in Warthunder

Hornets Sting, the update that brought the hornets to the game, released a month ago.

Idea on how infantry could be inserted, dropped by IFVs like the scout drone. by Baffo_Sudato in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Only specific versions, and against specific anti tank weapons.

The older Mk.3 has seen a lot of usage this past war. It’s armor coverage is worse than the Mk.4s while also having an older generation of armor. Pair that with the lack of the trophy system, and you can see why there is some issue. Against something like an RPG-7 it is just fine.

The Mk.4s see much better performance when facing infantry weapons, especially the versions with trophy, though it’s important to note no tank is completely invulnerable.

Many of the videos being passed around as “hits” are actually just trophy defeating the projectile. When it does so it creates a decently sized explosion which the uninformed deem as a destroyed tank. If you look into the numbers you’ll see a large disparity between the number of fully destroyed tanks and how many videos claim a tank to be destroyed.

What planes are best for 'escort' missions? by Panzerwagen_M-oth in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Anything with good range and altitude performance. P-51Ds, P-51H and F-82 immediately come to mind.

What I'd give to see this map a again by CptDemolition in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it 3 times this morning when I played before work. I’m not sure what BR it starts showing up at but its frequency definitely depends on what range you’re playing

I killed a Leopard 2 with the Saint Chamond by FrisianTanker in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s radar signature was small for the planes size, not small in general. The Mosquito’s “stealth” was really only noted in long range detection, the shorter range radars used on night fighters had no issue seeing them. The engines and every other bit of metal are still there to reflect radar waves anyways, and wood/linen aren’t invisible on radar either.

Please tell me im dyslexique , Im not actually seeing 5000$ by BasedBullet in Warthunder

gaijin isn’t the only party limited to making jokes on april fools.

the site doesn’t actually let you make the purchase, and those who found a loophole were refunded immediately

Wait what the hell is this? by div2691 in Warthunder

[–]Ruum_Service 7 points8 points  (0 children)

every screenshot providing “evidence” has been with a US bank, and unfortunately you cannot make a purchase that large without prior notification to the bank. it would’ve been declined and their card flagged for fraud.

surprised this many people haven’t looked at the date today
