If you're actually trying to escort a bomber effectively (as much as that can be done), the proper way to fly isn't side-by-side but above and in front. You want to counter-initiate someone going for an easy kill, not make yourself one of the targets.

I actually enjoy escorting my mate in a bomber or vice versa. We both understand it wont help either of us in any way but its nice to have a good time with a friend trying to stop them from dying whilst they gunship. Gives a bit of a break from the grind or basic prop gameplay of climb, dive, climb, etc.

Bomber escort can be a legit way to get some frags, but NEVER fly next to the bomber. Set up at least 2km higher and 1km in front, so you can dive on intercepting opponents. There's a reason fighter escorts didn't fly wing by wing with their bombers in real life either. So indeed, as you said "get some speed, get some altitude" :D

If you still fly the F-14 take 6 7F’s and 2 9H’s don’t even waste your time on AIM-64s since 90% of you don’t know how to use them and be more of an annoyance than dangerous.

Very valid and true talking points for playing the game competitively... However, after 3000+ hours I have spent in this game; playing with friends and taking props into top tier, multi-rolling, bomber escorting, and going phoenix mode are all some great ways to change up the repetitive nature of WarThunder to just have fun. Being in a discord call with a 3 ship of BV238s in formation over F-16s and Mig-29s is not competitive but rather a good time (in fact you can argue this is encouraged by Gaijin with Thunder Show and the "God Mode" achievement").

Play the game for fun, if thats bringing a P-51 up to 11.3 every once in a while to fuck about, go for it as long as you arent affecting anyone else which the only way to actually do so would be teamkilling using the P-51. Maybe i just dont take the game seriously enough or something but when i see a prop at top tier i just chuckle and move on with my day and couldnt give less of a shit. I personally dont do that, i dont see the fun in it; but if thats fun to someone else more power to them. What someone else is doing in a game that really only rewards selfish gameplay (plus people end up bitching about teamwork anyhow) does NOT affect you, grow up and just shoot shit and do good on YOUR part. Winning is nice and it gives a little bonus and im happy to win, but dont sit and make your enjoyment rely 100% on winning.

However you can also have 2 Aim 54s on the mount. IMO the 2 Aim 54s are a better choice then the single Aim 7, the 2 Aim 54s usually get me 1 kill every other match and the aim 7s clean up the rest.

Escorting bombers can actiually work fine from my experience, just instead of slowing down by lowering throttle you slow down by climbing above the bomber so you can B&Z anyone who approaches. It does increase the bomber player's survivability and makes for a lot of kill oppertunities for the fighter. It still may not be the absolute most optimal way of playing the game, but it makes for satisfying teamwork.

Just recently got the f-14, best load out imo is 2 aim9h, 2 Phoenix, and rest sparrow. Fly high at start and use your radar to catch people trying to fly high, send two phoenixs out on different targets and then then and go cold to avoid the 50 missiles that were launched at you lmao. Is always satisfying to get a fox 3 kill. I like to call it the fox 3 lottery. Another piece of advice for bvr is let the missile cook, I've gotten some crazy nutty 35-40km sparrow kills, the missiles travels for a long time but many people decide to break lock and go oh well guess it didn't hit, but give the missile a chance more often than not it's doing its job. Countless times I've launched a missile and it feels like it's been traveling for minutes and just as I'm about to give up on it I'll get aircraft destroyed.

I did the lower tier in a high tier thing a few times for the achievement, I flew in a Beaufort and my rear gunner pilot sniped a Mig-15.

You got 4 escorts??? If i ever ask i get none, even in the Yer-2 which is super easy to escort cuz its so slow and poor climbing

Point 3 (not like i care about jets) but said strategy sounds like ironically something very smart to do. 6 quick chances for a kill, and then run RTB. Money and no repair costs, valid strategy.

I'm surprised you mentioned bomber escorts without mentioning players dumping all their altitude for a bomber kill. I watched my entire team dive on a low flying b-17. I look up and the entire team is flying twords me.

#1 best bomber escort is a person who kills the fighters before they reach the bomber in the first place #2 props are decent in jet matches but to an extent I’d say maximum extreme maximum is 9.3 and even then you are limited on prop choice you need something that handles high speed and has enough fire power to kill on a small window. Usually things like Fw-190s or Tempest.. then you pick on the jets that are locked in a dogfight.. after that props are useless due to missiles and just they get too fast as a jet and the window of fire is too small to do any meaningful damage or even get some shots off as for tanks taking a low tier into a high tier is completely different than planes considering generally how tanks are made they have more restrictions than an aircraft usually there is a spot on every MBT that a reserve can punch through. Does not mean it’s useful to the team. #3 biggest tip here… in ground battles do not die once and leave

9:10 Absolutely the case. Hell, last time I played the Tu-4 with a few friends, we had a bunch of games where teammates would run towards one of us to clear their six. It worked every time though, because god damn that's a lot of 23s.

Well if you're stock, bombing is the only way to upgrade your fighter especially if you're in a phantom

the TL;DR of this video is basically "whats the point in playing the game if you arent gonna take it seriously" i dont get why people are like this about this game, its a game, have fun, do what you want, no one cares if they win or lose the match, the game doesnt have to be one large sweatfest, if people did what was said here it would turn air rb into ground rb

The only reason I managed to grind the upgrade missiles for my Phantom was because I was bombing bases. It at least gives you a baseline RP per match considering stock loadouts suck. In my experience, I grind out fighters with bombs at least twice as fast compared to fighters that don't carry bombs

6 phoenixes at the start of the game makes the enemy team either go defensive at the start or go down in flames because they don't care about looking for missile contrails/ don't know how to evade

I had to bring that one Chaika into that one game to try to kill a jet that one time. I got the kill but also I have not done it since, it was still cool for me though. I also had brought my jets for what it is worth so the first three or so minutes I was mostly useless.

The pheonix missile doesn't pull very much G, but typically what I like to do is get ultra high and fast, like Mach 1.3 and 15kft+, then around 40 miles I'll launch a couple of the 54's, first one TWS, second one STT but a little later, and from a different aspect as the first one. So 40mi and 35-28mi are both pheonix shots, then I'll crank holding the lock until slowly they both break (wasting time for the missiles to close, and to scrap theirs) THEN, believe it or not, I run two dogfight sparrows, and launch that around 10-13 miles, and of course the 9G or 9H. It's basically the 2x2x2 but with two more 54s. Only really usable in Simulator, but if you have cloud coverage hiding your cons and the missiles, and use the radar tilt to look down effectively without losing altitude. Not to mention you can at times murder bomber formations from 50 miles away. The F14 is a big brain plane and it has a lot of potential outside of the "meta"

But do spend $60 on the F-5C…best financial mistake of my life!

You can't go fighter mode with bombs attached. Multirole fighters armed for A2G work do carry A2A weapons, but only for defense, but they also usually have an escorting flight and are prepared to jettison those bombs if they get jumped. The Phoenix missile was designed for shooting down Soviet bombers or the anti-ship missiles they could launch.

#2 in tank battles is kinda fun tbh, but not in jets at all in the slightest. The early-tier 150mm tank destroyers like the Spj Fm 43-44 are a decently fun way to grind SL, at least for players who are better at the game than I am.

If people want to Bomb then RB EC needs to return as Bombing would actually work towards ECs objective goals. RB queue is PVP and PVP only.

Does the app actually work?

I always carry a mix of missiles on my F14. I stage them for ranges like a layered offense/defense. Phoenix first, Sparrow, then sidewinder. Sometimes I completely leave out the sparrow, but I always keep the sidewinder. It's reliable. The range on the sidewinders helps deal with their poor flight characteristics. You can fire them from far enough away that the enemy usually isn't expecting them. As for escorting bombers, I tend to climb to at most 1km above them and fly in a large S flight path to keep my speed up while staying close to them and technically not outpacing them. I only do this for friends, and even then it's not common.

One small addition: people need to avoid full-commit headon trades with the first enemy they see. The thing with escorting bombers, nobody does it right and everyone gets mad when you tell them not to _form up._ Always see people flying wing-to-wing with the bomber, trying to get as close as possible, often popping smoke, never in an advantageous position above and off to the side of the bomber, at altitude. Prop matches where a bomber asks for escort often devolve into air shows where 3 fighters dive to the deck with a bomber, presenting the enemy with a feeding frenzy and leaving the team at a multi-aircraft disadvantage, moreso than if there was just a couple bombers unescorted. Basically the same thing eventually happens with prop failsquads in jets.

I carry 4 aim 54, it's a decent missle and now usable with the added range of maps. Even then using all 4 I usually only get 1 kill sometimes 2. Who to I take them then. The pure range means I can launch 4 get a few kills before I need to get into ranges where I'm vulnerable. Which allows me to assess and change position before engaging with sparrows and sidewinders

what does RTB mean?

Why dont people do bombing then fly back to runway and switch to air to air

i broke 2 of these rules a month back when 3 F-16s escorted my PBM-1 for the funnies

8:50 the problem is that they are doing it wrong. They should be flying higher then bomber, with normal throttle and in front of him to intercept enemy fighters earlier ;p

As far as bombers go, I think they should just stick together then split off closer to targets. That’s a much more efficient use of the resources and fighters that are available.

How can I get free GL if I have a iPhone

The fact the phantom gets 7 missiles w a bomb load makes me physically actually ill

I'm never not going to cover a bomber if asked. I remember the good days, and I'll do anything to remind me of those days, bordering throwing games.

SMH. Pretending you have teammates... that way lies madness.

0:52 How did you lock on to him that fast ? Im new with radar guided missiles

It’s the keybind “switch between within visual range/beyond visual range” in controls. You you point the flashing square over what you want to lock within the allowed range.

@@SeekerHead Thanks man :)

I have had great games escorting bomber, it can work well because they can peal off to another bomber, escorts need to keep 100% and weave back and forth in a large patern yo keep your speed up

I at one point in time took 6 aim 54s only. Not even sidewinders. Min fuel and took off so fast and b line straight to enemy. Fire my 6 54s and rtb while dropping flares and would get 3-4 kills most games. Cause I didn’t have the extra weight of fuel and went as fast as possible at the enemy they didn’t even have time to even get to mach 1 for me to kill them.

Just a warning, with tip #1, if you have a Mach 1+ fighter like the kfir canard and you use aim9-g missiles with the 6 1000lb bombs you get 1.5 bases per game if you know what you’re doing. I did it and I get about 200k rp per hour if I get 1 base and 1 player kill per game, it will research a good bit as long as you know how to do it effectively

When you learn how to use the AIM-7F it is a far superior weapon to the Phoenix for everything except extreme long range. You can use it in dogfights, it has good min range, and it's still decent at BVR. My load out for most games on the maps that are far too small for the Tomcat is 6 AIM-7Fs and 2 AIM-9Hs. When it's an EC map I usually bring 4 Phoenixes, 2 Sparrows and 2 Sidewinders, so I can lob 4 Phoenixes at the high alt enemies at 30 miles and scare the crap out of them when it goes pitbull and I'm still good for actually fighting enemies. Escorting bombers, ah, what lost the Germans the Battle of Britain. If you're slow in a fighter, you're dead. If you want to escort, keep climbing above your bomber pal and gain more energy so you can dive on any enemy interceptors.

Bomber escorting works, you fly above the bomber and you dive on the fighter climbing towards the bomber

Wish I had watched this before I got started in war thunder, started two days ago, bought the phantom because I thought “good plane, fun game??” And immediatly realized my regret

Those f14 shooting at you from 100000km away.

How do you even bring a prop into high tier air rb?
