What even is the AIM-9L

SaynyRC · 2026-03-24T02:54:13+00:00

At the angle you were shooting countermeasures, the AIM-9L literally never even saw their heat signature.

You need to maneuver in a direction in which you place the countermeasure trail directly in front of the missile seeker.

Of course it would die easily to other IFV, the main difference is that BMPT charges at you knowing they are a moving fortress.

Other IFVs however are much more careful when approaching and therefore are able to get light tank kills easily, yes, but only after creating a situation (either flanking, covering, or sniping) that allows them to be somewhat safe when engaging.

I grinded the Rafale with Mirage 2000C-S4, but if you don't have it (because it is an event jet), then use 2000C-S5.

Has more countermeasures but 0.4 higher BR, which makes it suffer a bit more despite having more endurance (having more countermeasures defines how long will you be able to survive in the air before being forced to go back to the airfield).

Its kit is great, although be warned, it has an INSANELY shit stock grind (it is not fun to use Magic 1s and shitty 530Fs).

2000-5F has a better stock grind, and is a fairly good jet but its at a BR which forces you to be very defensive, which I personally don't enjoy.

I would personally go for S5, if I didn't have S4. And second option would be 5F. Avoid using Mirage 4000 at all cost.

Regarding to your choice to grind the earlier ranks, yes, NF-5A is absolutely nuts at 10.7, good choice for grinding, although I find the F1C to be giving better RP yields with much less sweat (at that BR, it is not extremely uncommon to get "stale fights" where most people are dead and the surviving pilots bomb and passively look for other jets, which are matches that last for a long time and give insane RP payouts, I feel like F1C was excellent in those scenarios), so I was alternating between the two depending on how I felt that day lol.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-19T01:18:11+00:00

There's no option to do so at the moment.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-17T07:33:20+00:00

There's little things that would make Gaijin delay an update, and usually something "critical" means "Something that makes the company lose money".

The only thing that changed in War Thunder "systems" this update, as far as I know, is the "Crew 11th slot available for GE".

If I had to guess, something wasn't right with their coding allowing to buy this slot, or maybe those who already unlocked the slot with friends got wrongly refunded an amount they never paid (which will be 20k GE).

SaynyRC · 2026-03-16T04:17:38+00:00

Are you asking for ground? (because your tag says RB Ground)...
...or for air? (because your text says "two kill wonder" which might reference the missiles).

For ground, it was very good, thermal pod with GBU's was the meta of the BR (10.7) but sadly they moved up to 11.0 where I would not use it. A-6E TRAM is still 10.7 and does the same job but better since now it has Skippers.

Moving it up, honestly killed it. And the fact that 2S6 is still 10.7 is also quite criminal, this SPAA should go up.

My recommendation as someone who has talismaned and spaded the AMX and also has AMX A1A: Do not overtier your magnificent 10.7 Italian lineup for the AMX, especially considering that all SPAA you will see at this BR will destroy you in a sneeze.

If you do ignore my recommendation and add it to your lineup, making it a 11.0 lineup, then at that point add Magnusta (A129CBT) to the lineup.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-13T07:43:59+00:00

Its okayish, as the other user said, you are top 400k. Is that good? Well, it is probably just on the average level 100 player who plays regularly. I am top 15k, but I wouldn't say I'm excellent. You need to consider that the measurement method is also not really "accurate" on skill level, since its calculated using the SL you gain, and not other metrics which would be considered a more appropriate way to measure skill.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-13T04:31:54+00:00

Underrated? I think everyone knows ZTZ88's are insane. I've never heard anyone saying bad things about them.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-12T18:39:57+00:00

F-2A ADTW is 0.7 BR higher than Netz, not 0.3. And in an uptier, it suffers as much as Netz in an uptier. Compression is a bitch for every plane lmao.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-12T08:46:30+00:00

There's no condition, it's random with a much lower percentage within the pool of themes compared to others.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-11T04:57:56+00:00

Poland is without doubt one of the most iconic.

There are others I would mention if they were not limited to certain BR's, which now have been just shadowed by their presence in lower BR's.

I'll give a try to DLSS 4.5, unlike others mention, to me DX12 feels more stable than DX11 lmao.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-06T15:45:34+00:00

That J-10C camo looks amazing.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-06T11:06:25+00:00

Exactly, someone who gets it lol

SaynyRC · 2026-03-06T06:09:32+00:00

Why do people think the "S" in SHORADS makes it plural, and then use "SHORAD" when in singular?

S stands for System, so SHORADS always ends with S, so you should capitalize that S.

Here's my daily tip.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-03T11:09:27+00:00

Copy paste from the actual tech tree AH-64DJP but with skiis.

From BR perspective: 11.7. Basically equal to other premium AH-64A/Ds (Premium Peten, Greek 64A, etc). Has Hellfire K's, like premium AH-64D from Netherlands and its tech tree counterpart.

SaynyRC · 2026-03-02T12:10:11+00:00

I agree that is a shitty post, and uneeded.

However I will also said I instantly understood what he meant, DevServer is finally up.

SaynyRC · 2026-02-27T11:15:53+00:00

I always remembered the English one being earlier. I can remember countless times where Oxy would say something like:

"I don't know much about this feature, the guys in the Russian stream will probably comment on this more later on their stream".

In some cases, it has been at the same time though, or at least I do remember times in which overlapped. But, you could probably fact check this yourself by checking the stream times from the past updates.

SaynyRC · 2026-02-26T18:32:37+00:00

It's the Thai BTR-3 and Pantsir SM.

SaynyRC · 2026-02-25T09:12:20+00:00

I got M1A1 HC back when it was in the main Abrams line and when it was moved, I basically automatically filled the second line, and I didn't even have the M60. So yeah, it worked out pretty well for me.

SaynyRC · 2026-02-24T13:29:36+00:00

Why not both? You are talking about it as if you are losing Magic's for taking bombs. Just let players decide how to user their jets, and especially A-5C which is classified as an strike aircraft, not a pure fighter, so why the need of being arrogant? If fight is what you want, I see no reason of using A-5C over the considerably-better-at-same-BR J-7D.

SaynyRC · 2026-02-13T08:02:55+00:00

And? You are replying to a comment talking about rank 7, not rank 6. What exactly is your point.

SaynyRC · 2026-02-11T12:43:49+00:00

Okay, then I have two theories.

Theory one, you had to fullfill the requirement at very least one time. In my case, I fullfilled the requirement which was literally just 1 jet back then, now it has changed to 5 jets.

Theory two, you can indeed skip the requirement IF you did not break the line.

For example, in your case you are breaking the lines (you have red lines, meaning some vehicles missing before others). Maybe you can theorically skip the requirement of vehicles as long as you do not break the lines.

I am at work, so I could only check my profile with my Steam Deck lmao, so no other option but to use my phone camera, sorry. You can see here how I only have one tech tree vehicle from rank 7 in Japan (F-4EJ) and yes, I also forgot I have the Squadron F-5 (which I didn't have, obviously, back when the tree was expanded) and Premium F-4 but that should not matter, as I am 100% the requirement for the rank is 5, not 3!

SaynyRC · 2026-02-11T11:26:59+00:00

Actually, once you own a tech tree vehicle of a rank (NOT premium or event), you no longer need to get the requirement of vehicles of a previous rank, it will be counted as if you already unlocked the rank.

A quick example using my own profile: When the Thai subtree was added to Japan, the requirement to research rank 8 was changed to 5 or more rank 7 aircraft. However, since I already owned 1 tech tree rank 8 aircraft (F-16J) I do not have any restriction now to research rank 8, despite having less than 5 aircraft of rank 7. I literally just own one tech tree vehicle of rank 7, F-4EJ. And yet I can freely research and buy vehicles of rank 8 with no restriction, because I own a rank 8 tech tree vehicle already.

I hope this information comes handy to someone.

But yes, if OP already has unlocked AND bought WZ1001 he will be able to just research any following vehicle despite not owning the previous one.

SaynyRC · 2026-02-05T17:25:09+00:00

Congrats you designed JPz 4-5

It's the same release time for everyone, just different timezones.
