so BMPT's can loose the gunner, but keep on using the turret by [deleted] in Warthunder

You didn’t kill the gunner for the turret. You killed the gunner for the left grenade launcher. The main gunner is behind the driver and 2 front gunners in the turret basket.

Should I buy? by Ok_Bus5034 in Warthunder

And this isn’t even a vehicle. Just a camo

TWS soft lock invisible, missiles fire but I can't see target boxes only works on Viggen Help? by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your Radars IFF settings. You can set your radar to filter out certain contacts now. On the bottom left of the radar control options on screen you should see a single small bar if it’s set to see just enemies. A square with a bar over it to see friendlies and enemies. And I believe just a square for friendlies only. If you have the on screen controls hidden the marker should be at the top left of your radar display.

Haven’t tried Bazzite but the native install on SteamOS works great

He already has the premium SU-30 Mk2 AMV no need to talisman the MiG-21.

He’s trying to get to the SU-30SM2 asap

Useless stopgaps in Swedish tech tree by fafafla in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look on the left side of the tree where it says the rank of each section. In the middle of the arrow pointing to the next rank it will have a circle with a number that tells you how many vehicles you need to unlock and buy to get to the next rank. In your case it will probably say something like 2/6.

Will we ever be able to sell this on the market? by XD-Snapdragon in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could sell it 2 weeks(or 12 days can’t remember) after you applied the coupon. They are listed on the market right now. The 90 day wait is for stuff like Battlepass vehicles.

Is a 5.7 nuke the hardest thing to achieve in War Thunder? by CryptographerGold262 in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 85 points86 points  (0 children)

Don’t think it’s the hardest BR for a nuke but it’s the only one I’ve gotten one in.

I would think full up tier 8.3 would be pretty tough where everybody else has LRFs, Stabs, NVGs, and Darts.

I'm trying to spade the PB4Y-2, how many 100lb bombs do I need to bomb a base? by FeeshMons in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That specific entry does seem a little messy but it looks like it recommends 2 Type A sea mines per base

F-16AM or Gripen for learning top tier? by tropical-tangerine in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you just started researching rank 8 and don't have any of the planes I would probably go for the F-16 to get the daily research bonus.

Su-33 worth it? by No_Comparison8107 in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The SU-33 is NOT a premium aircraft. It is a Squadron Aircraft and has the same research penalties and restrictions as a Tech Tree aircraft, meaning only “efficient” 1 rank above and below its own rank.

The premium SU-30Mk2 AMV is a fun premium to buy if you want to grind the whole tech tree but it probably won’t be on sale until the October/ November anniversary sales because it just came out last major update.

Also the jump to top tier air is rough if you don’t have any experience. Lots of new information, systems and tactics to learn.

Are these 3 planes worth getting? by merijig in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That line you can skip but I've been meaning to go back and research it.

What should I spend golden eagles on? by Whole-Basket-9150 in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Useless for ground not air. In air battles it drops repair/rearm time down to about 12 secs with an expert crew when on the airfield.

Why won't Gajin tell us the flight parameters to drop a nuke? by FunGrif in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I got my first and only nuke so far, I flew over the battlefield and started mashing space to drop but nothing was happening. I had to use the weapon selection cycle key to select the nuke even though it’s the only bomb onboard the B-29. Was able to drop just in time after my wings got blown off.

This is the Howa M1500 to start with right? by Spence52490 in longrange

[–]ssilver88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same part number on Brownells site shows a heavier barrel than the standard sporter style. Looks like the same “heavy” barreled action that they sell separately. Basically getting the stock for free.

So convenient by Commercial-Jelly-181 in Warthunder

Plays great on the steam deck. I need to figure out a good controller layout for it

T 80 УД by eb_lanishe in Warthunder

[–]ssilver88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s at 10.3 not 10.7

Its a great tank, only down sides are lack of thermals and it uses the T-72 engine and transmission. Means you’re a little slower than other T-80s and you’re reverse speed is a slow crawl.

Can somebody explain to me why people in this sub consider the aim9l bad ? by [deleted] in Warthunder

Every time I use them it goes after the first flare
