AV-8C - The Best American Harrier... So Far [War Thunder]
The AV-8C is a harrier that is overshadowed by the much more popular (and premium) AV-8A, as well as both the Harrier GR.1 and GR.3. Does this mean that it's bad? By no means! This is an extremely capable aircraft that people don't play all too much, for whatever reason.

FYI taking Zuni's set to a 1000m fuse work absolute wonders against aircraft in head-on encounters. I'll typically get 1-2 Zuni kills per match and 1-2 Aim-9G kills per match. +the guns on this guy still hit hard. Thanks for the vid Tank!!

I like using this for air superiority in GRB. It's also like the only non-premium plane below 10.3(for USA) that has flares so that's pretty nice.

AV-8B Harrier II Plus would be the Ultimate version. i would actually like the Harrier Plus in game as a step up from the regular Harrier

Its a video for those who dont want to spend 60$ on a vehicle. Also AV8C has a radar detector...
i wish we had the modification for the GAU-12 on the AV-8. one pod with the gun, one with the ammo
Not 100% sure but I'm pretty sure I was in a game with Tank couple days ago and he is just as polite in not ksing as he is in the videos. Good man
If you want more harrier footage, give the sea harrier a second pass. The BR changes since you made its video did it some favors. I've got it recently and at one module left to spade it I've got the grand total of 2 full uptiers.
All of the rank 6 Harriers are 9.7 ATM; tough the US ones suffer from a inferior bombload, what makes them less profitable in Air RB (+ harder to spade the 8C), but in mixed battles I'd definitely pick the Zunis over the 5x1000lbs, IF I had any reason to pick the AV-8 over the A-10A or F-4C for CAS, yet over a helicopter, with the US, but maybe we do get the AV-8B one day. The 30mm are not very good guns, but at least they hit hard, and planes can rarely RTB after a hit (unlike when u crti something with the 20mm). That poor Su-17 has no flares at all, that's why its dropped from 11.0 to 10.3 and its a big (and hot) plane... and the 22M3 has like 12, but if he's like me he carries a mix with chaff.

No VIFFing (vectoring in forward flight) for the UK replacement of the Harrier - the F35. Maybe that has something to do with the decision of the US Marines to stick with the Harrier (among other reasons...)
As a Harrier GR1 possessor: buy this one, if you cannot decide between them, when it comes to RB. In sim, they both hold the ground well imho.
i farmed from 2nd VW to F4 Phantoms with this under a WEEK!!!!!
the stock grind is brutal
Play the british harrier at 9.7 with sraam that explode after 3.7s and no flares it suffers
I have a talisman on this thing and it's one of my best aircraft. A real monster and it can dogfight, provided you position yourself properly and manage your energy...
I just got this researched just need the SL to unlock and crew it.
I have it unlocked, I’m just waiting on a SL sale. I have about 20 planes I can buy but in this current economy? Sale or no deal 😂
Its my Ace plane Every few games I’ll get 5 or 6 kills with ease, usually in uptiers as well, it’s just a total beast

I kinda miss the old review style with the rating numbers and pros and cons listings. I don’t care too much about the gameplay compilations since performance is going to be highly reliant on individual skill and less on the plane. I just think it shouldn’t be the majority of the video for just gameplay. Just my opinion though.
I was hoping for a review on the armaments, etc, not a "Watch my epene" video.
Finally a review on this underrated plane! 🎉
My dad worked on Av-8B harriers in the Marine corps and I wish they would add it 😭

AV-8A is premium, so more rewards and costs real money. It can have a custom loadout, so bombs and missiles. AV-8C has internal flares and chaff (so less, but less drag too) and it has radar warning.
