Is it possible to make a toss bombing with the nuke?
I remember when we field tested those back in 2002-2003. The 105 variant had all sorts of issues. The ATM/ATG variant was really effective in urban combat. I was in a pre-1129 Mortar carrier version. I love and miss the Stryker. It saved my life more than once in Mosul. I can tell you for a fact that it will stop 12.7 rounds. The best part was that ours had 110 outlets so you could plug in the coffee pot when we were in the field...lol.

"The 105 variant had all sorts of issues." Let me guess, was it mostly on the FTF issue, especially with the earlier model that had those low profile ammo replenisher? Because if that was the issue, it was pretty much an expected issue they never took account of, because that was the same issue that (mostly) got the Expeditionary tank rejected in the Armored Gun System selection back in the late-1980s. Unfortunately because GDLS failed to notice this when they say they followed the DOD's requirement for the Stryker vehicle families to use existing technology, and nobody in Teledyne informed GDLS about the Turret system problem when they took the existing Teledyne light tank turret and mate it on the Stryker chassis, you get that sort of issues plaguing that Wheeled Assault Gun lol

@@Mr.Plight Indeed, but in this case much more so. I was in a Stryker Brigade and the recce and infantry models are great vehicles. So much more roomy than the Brad. But the MGS just sucked. It had no cooling system at first and it was cramped for the crew. It was so hot. You would just be soaked after being in one for eight hours. And one may ask themselves: During the Iraq War, after 2003, why would a MGS platoon be needed? Good question. Because of running the War on the cheap, instead of the mission set the MGS was developed for, direct fire support and maybe some light TD duty, we were divvied up between the infantry battalions and were running patrols because of the chronic lack of enough troops. Yes, counter-insurgency patrols, which if there was a fight would be all infantry, with a MGS. It was stupid. And simply miserable in the Iraqi heat. Guys would be so dehydrated they would need help getting out after a patrol. Add to that the constant issues with the autoloader and everything else. So, eventually, they started fitting crews out with a literal cooling vest. That helped somewhat but it was never not miserable. I suppose if one was leading a MGS platoon in Germany or some place temperate it would be ok.

im pretty sure its a server issue. some matches you can scout no matter the distance or line of sight/concealment, same vehicle,same map different match and you cant scout ANYTHING
That moment when you were on arctic base and thought you heard music, you did! One of the houses there plays the old warthunder hangar theme, a nice little easter egg.
If you were wondering, the non-premium counterpart is on the M2A2's line, A.K.A the tank destroyers line (far right) with the death turtle, the T95.
Your attitude towards this game is really refreshing, you are so calm it's a joy to watch, and the gameplay is amazing as well ofcourse
they need to add its suspension, correct the gun depression zones, remove the exhaust showing up in the thermals (its not realistic at all), remove the gun shield when slat armor is removed, and buff its reload. Make it 6.5 seconds or something, 7.5 is way to damn long especially since it is the TOP end of its IRL rate. Also a buff to its turning radius would be nice, there is no way it turns that horrendously. The wheels have way more room to turn. On the other hand that poor XM-1 seriously needs M774 and its missing smoke launchers. it would be nice if for once US stuff could not be missing as much shit as possible. Artificial nerfing needs to stop. If either of these were russian you could bet your ass not a single thing would be missing, and they'd have the best possible muntion.

All they seem to care about is Russia tech tree. While their army gets humiliated in real life, I guess Gaijin just wanna let the Russian players believe their army is invincible. They keep adding broken stuff to it, by now Russia can spawn in 17(!) extremely competitive tanks in Ground RB and that's without counting in their broken heli's. Meanwhile, the Leo 2 has around 17 variants, yet they just refuse to add anything. Absolutely disgusting. The moment some western devs make a game similar without the blatant Russian BIAS, I am sinking money in that game and Gaijin devs can go fuck themselves.

US has some of the most OP bullshit CAS in the game, and universally undertiered planes, and currently dominates all of top tier air with its bullshit.

20:09 - Now I know what you mean with the tanks not rendering. He just crawled out of the ground.
This thing with M900 now is so much fun and grouping this with the XM-1 and a ground pounder like the AV-8 or the A-10 for a full premium lineup, it makes grinding the tech tree so fast.
i did take a look at this when it came out and i still wonder why this is 9.7 when WMA301 is at 8.3 xD
Keep up the amazing work Odd! Your videos get me hyped up to play every day!!
The funny thing is this was before the M900 round was given to it 😂
That chase with the MiGs when he had the nuke was the most tense thing I've seen in WT
Day 12 of proposing the challenge I came up with to Odd: The challenge is called "Basket Bomb": Your goal is to accurately drop a bomb into any open top tanks' turret basket (e.g. M10 / M18 / the big german td's / the german AA's etc.)! Extra points if you use a very low-tier aircraft like a biplane, for the funnies. I think that would be extremely fun and it would make me so happy if you gave it a try

The Stryker has the ability to raise and lower itself IRL but as usual since it's not a Russian vehicle, it is missing that feature, as well as several others. Unfortunately though it cannot TILT itself, so it can't change the lack of gun depression over the front, however IRL it has between like 8-10° degrees of gun depression over the sides and rear, obviously that is not correctly modeled in game... As usual.

M735 is an 8.7 round that doesn't belong past 9.0. But plenty of US tanks are stuck with it at higher BRs than that simply because everyone seems to just be ok with US having the worst possible rounds out of everyone constantly. The XM-1 in particular suffers severely from that bullshit.

“It’s wolfing time!” Lmao
Odd could you do a button map video for ground, just like you did for your case plane video would appreciate it if you could
Wolfpack absolutely slaps
Try to go out with half ammo, and bait with the rear. The rate the loader fills the autoloader is a bit slow anyway, and the gun can't be loaded manually otherwise (obviously do to the turret design), so u better of rearming at a zone if 9 round not enough. Tough I'd say this should be 9.3 too do to its many flaws (poor agility, gun handling, rate of fire, ineffective stabilser, lack of reverse...)
that was some nice dodging on that nuke tho

I've noticed that since the patch scouting has been nothing but pointless. I've had numerous matches where I would get maybe one in 10 possible scouts the entire match because it's so broken.
I mean a keyboard certainly works though I'm not sure that is the intended answer.

don't forget that in next update (or the one after that) Gaijin will reshuffle tanks into rank8 like they did with planes and Wolfpack like all rank6 premiums will suddenly be a lot less useful (look at what happened to japanese T-2 early) ... and we'll get new batch of copypasted rank7 premium vehicles. So, buying Wolfpack for full 60$ probably isn't good idea, talisman on techtree M1128 (that is at least rank7 vehicle) is a much better & cheaper choice.
