Best twin-boom aircraft / War Thunder
Ойындар
What does a regular, conventional aircraft look like? There’s a long, thin fuselage… then there’s the wing and the tail assembly, and - this is important - you only get one of each. This conventional configuration has been long praised as the most convenient, simple and reliable option for a variety of aircraft. But it’s obviously not the only possible configuration… and today we’re going to speak about one of the alternatives. Here’s our list of the best twin-boom aircraft in War Thunder!

Hey Gaijin, I love your game very very much, but please, decompress br’s. The situation at 8.0 - 11.0 (planes) is abysmal, and not as fun as it could be. I think it’s totally worth to wait for a match a minute longer, but have it be fair, balanced, and most importantly, FUN

If you are a smart and patient player, the Narval is one of the best fighters in the game. It clims slow so you will have to side climb a little even with its interceptor spawn. After climbing just focus on maintaining a significant energy advantage and use the 6×20mms to wreck everything.

love the Lightnings and those Swedish twin-boom fighter-bombers. Several high-caliber guns in the nose is nothing to sneeze at, especially when they can still outturn a lot of other fighters. Question: Why do some planes have compartments to catch casings from their guns, while most just eject them into the air?

@@GioVision Yeah, the A-10 may not be in game but this principle holds true. You just can't have 30mm casings going everywhere, especially into the engines if the aircraft is diving.
I own the P-38K and I can confirm that it is an insanely strong aircraft. Surprisingly good maneuverability, great guns with lots of ammo, and absolutely insane engines. It has great high altitude performance and a climb rate of 24m/s at 5.3 which means you can outclimb pretty much anything on top of it getting an air spawn. I usually climb to about 6000 meters by the time the two teams merge allowing me to loiter for some time while I pick a target. It is very good at boom and zoom as it has very strong engines, but a downside is that is has a relatively low rip speed compared to some single engine fighters at the BR. Rudder compression can also become an issue at high speeds so making some adjustments in a dive can be a little awkward. Last but not least, with it being a premium, it has a very good reward multiplier for SL and RP making it a viable grinder. I highly recommend picking it up next summer if you have the chance. Besides, you'll get to flex the fact that you have the best P-38 model in the game ;)

Increase RP and SL gain for non premium players. Adding more vehicles without adding a higher multiplier will only make the grind more extreme.
My favorite is the Sm.91, it’s armament is so good. It has a surprising vertical maneuverability too, when I was fooling around I managed to make 2 bf-109s and a Yak try to follow me and set them up to be shot down by my team.
Twin booms are great, but sadly, I still don't have any of them. But I'm on my way to get the Lightning.

Hey there Lightning Speed, thanks for your comment I'm glad you enjoy it. It makes me proud to narrate!
Gaijin if you think keeping the KV 1B at 4.0 is a good idea you are wrong. The KV 1C might suffer a bit at 5.0 but even then. As a German main with my friend who has the KV 1B, I can tell you that it should be 4.3 or you can add more powerful guns in each tree to deal with it at 4.0. The Germans get multiple proper high velocity guns by 3.0-3.3 with the Marder III H, Panzer IV F2, and G, and Stug III F. I recommend it even if I am a German main, and will be dealing with the SU-85M and the T-34/85 (D5T) when and if they go down to 5.0 with my Panzer IV H and J. I don’t complain as much, and just deal with it on the battlefield. But for the sake of the game’s improvement and for the average player’s experience I honestly beg tou Gaijin to do something, thank you for considering and reading my thoughts.

The de Havilland Sea Vixen is one of my favorite jets in real life because it's so quirky and its history is storied as well. In game, it's not great, no guns, sub-par AAMs, but it's really easy to get above everyone and dive on top of them and at 8.7 it's kind of perfect where it sits, especially since SU-25s moved up to 10.0.

Yeah. Good luck taking down a bomber though. USA tails go "Adiòs" on a good cannon hit from a km, but I've set every engine on fire and THEN shot off a wing to kill any other bomber (that isn't british, sorry, british)
My personal favorites are the Lightning and the Venom. The former is the classic example of a twin boom aircraft, and has performance at its BR range on par with or superior to single engine aircraft in almost all regards. The Venom, meanwhile, is slower than most Jets it fights, but it has superior turn response and good acceleration
I want to get these planes now. Also, I knew the P-38 would be on this list!
The SAAB 21 series is a great one, not only do they look great their performance is also amazing ^^
I love the British Sea Vixen because of the wide variety of payload
A21A-3 is my fav a nice plane with some bombs and 13.2 mm galore with a convenient 20mm for all sorts of targets.
i got my first twin-boom in the Italian tec tree and I'm on my way to getting the one this list
P-61C Black Widow will forever be one of my favorites in the game
My fav is the p-38. Fell in love at first sight.
The Swedish J-28b is King because of it’s great ammo for the Hispanos and you can turn-fight almost all enemies. It’s acceleration and survivability is quite good too. Never had an easier time getting aces. With or without talisman, it’s the best grinder for that tier.
S.M.91 is an amazing plane, definitely my favourite in this list
Can you let us get the fw 189 in the tech tree please like or minimally make it obtainable in another way then crates
Hey gaijin! I have a question, what can i do with the first mig 9?, im outrated, outmanouvered and outspeeded by almost everything in my br.
Oh its not that much of the fighte but the P-61 Black Widow is the go to in my case, 4 bombs, 4 belly mounded 20mm cannons and that great 360 roof turret with also 4 50 calls is great bouth in mixed or air battles gotta love that thing.

If you guys could find it in your hearts to make it easier to get RP and then I’m sure the community will hail you guys and I will too I understand this is a free game but if only you could give the people a chance and I’m sure they will support you please change.

Dear Gaijin, I've played your game since released, over the time I love the improvement from graphic to engine and even sound in the game. But recently, I've found out that some how reward for shooting down tanks and bombers is ridiculous low (850 sl for a panther)? Repair price have some how sky rocket 7k+ SL to repair a Panther A. The gap is too large and imbalance. I hope you'll make some adjustment for this. Best regards

Lockheed P-38 Lightning....I'm not even American and I'm still insulted that wasn't No#1
So is the F-82 not considered a twin boom aircraft? Cause I'd say it's a hell of a lot better than some of those listed. For fighting aircraft you can load 14 M2 Browning .50's and for ground you can bring up to 2x2000lb bombs. Down side is gaijin hates us and made the repair cost 25k sl.
