CUSTOM LOADOUTS in War Thunder are OP - AD-4 in War Thunder
Ойындар
It's been a while since War Thunder added Custom Loadouts. It came with the A-10 and various other vehicles but now it's finally starting to be added to some earlier aircraft.
Custom loadouts in War Thunder are OP, in the case of the AD-4 Skyraider, this thing was normally limited to either bombs or rockets but now it can take ALL of them making it a force to be reckoned with!
The AD-4 in War Thunder is now a MONSTER!

I know this video is mostly about the plane, but a small rant with regards to the light tank: I feel like when I'm in a light, my reason for existence is to scout the hell out of the enemy team, in order for the heavies and planes to have markers to kill. It drives me absolutely bonkers when I'm in a heavy or a plane and my whole team is running around in lights, and not one of them is making any effort to scout a damned thing. Shoot at that tank all you want and maybe you'll get some kills, but scout it first so the rest of us can support! More than likely wherever that guy is, there's another one in his general area. It makes the team so much more effective than having to wander around the battlefield hoping to run into something before it runs into you.

Same. I am a light tank main. I scout even if I am going to engage the enemy I scouted in the off-chance that someone kills me. I get the intelligence assist and the spawn point reduction to bring out CAS. I've had 20+ scouts in matches quite a few times yet got very few assists because my team is not pushing to the front lines.

Gaijin really needs to sort out the teamwork problem in war thunder, like give players incentive to actually work together by increasing the rewards you get for doing stuff like scouting, helping teammates repair or put out fires, and maybe towing teammates out of danger (I’ve done that a few times when I still played the game). And have an updated tutorial that teaches players how to effectively work with your team, and maybe something like a better voice chat system to quickly communicate with teammates rather then taking a few seconds to type a message in chat. But knowing Gaijin, they’ll probably never implement something like this because they’re either incompetent or think it won’t give them money.

@@junkers3824 I agree. You do get benefits from teamwork but most people don't want to play WT as a team game. It's a bunch of lone wolves. Yeah, I will occasionally have one of those "carry the team" try-hard matches, where I am doing everything I can to win the match (usually in spite of my team's insistence on losing) and those can be really fun *(and sweaty), but I would rather get some help. TBH, when I start a match, I check the scoreboard to see if there are any "stacked" squads (2-4 people playing together, not randoms), since I know they have the ability to talk to each other in voice chat and mark positions with squad markers. Lone wolfing is sometimes the way to go. If you solo-cap an objective, you get all of the SL, RP, and spawn points...if you have team-mates on the cap, your earnings are reduced. This is why you see people taking Pumas, M-22's, and BT (and R3 T20 FA_HS rats) tanks into higher tier matches...cap rush to get a solo cap, maybe get a kill or an assist afterwards, and then hop into CAS.

I'd rather take the magnetic mines, as they have very large amounts of explosives for how light they are (they have 500 kg worth of TNT and are lighter than the 1000 lb bombs), while the 2000 lb bombs + extra bombs or rockets gives you the flight performance of a garbage truck.

Hey Odd! I love your videos! They are much more cheerful (and/or painful really depends on the vehicle) than others imo. Idk if its just because of the way you talk during the videos or if its just a personal preference but they kept me entertained for pretty much 1-1.5 years now and I never missed a new upload since I joined but there is one small little thing that botheres me for quiet a while now and that's a distinct lack of love for the russian SU-100P or how I like to call it the ASU-100. Compared to the ASU-57 it isn't nearly as small but it has a somewhat comparable mobility with a maximum speed of 65 kp/h going forward and ~21 kp/h in reverse and it also has a very deadly high velocity 100mm D-50 gun that reloads like an 85mm gun and an even more deadly grenade: the BR-412D with almost 170mm of pen at 500m at a 30° angle that can reliably pen and one shot any vehicle at its BR (with some exceptions being the Tiger II H, Jadgtiger, T26E5, T32, M48, the Tortoise and some others). The shell flies at almost 900 m/s making it very easy to aim at long ranges and with almost 100g of TNT in the shell its a mere wonder if the target survives a successful center-mass penetration. The SU also follows the teachings of no armor = best armor and can therefore be quiet survivable if the enemy doesnt carry HE, HEAT or BESH but its biggest downsides are the frontalyl mounted engine and transmission so you have to expose your front in most situations and the lack of gun depression with only *negative 4° of gun elevation* **!Disclaimer! I didn't test every vehicle from 5.3-7.3 and I only tested the ufp at 500m so most tanks still have giant weak spots like the turret or the lfp !Disclaimer!** I enjoyed your video as always and I'd really love seeing the SU-100P on your channel in the near future as it is a very overlooked tank imo and it deserves some more attention. Stay safe and don't forget to give your computer a treat so that it doesn't die again! Edit: Sorry for the text wall
Bawz you should really enable automatic pod drop, for expended mentions, it would have save you tons of roll time in the 2nd game, bc you were hanging on to two hvars and had 8 empty MM pods
i think that allowing the planes to carry what they did historically and then balance them after the new performance is better than giving us loadouts we won't would make implementing planes easier as well i suppose as they only need the hardpoints and what to be able to carry
I did this a couple of days ago with the AD 4 used all rocket types available on the pylons and 2000 bomb it is a killer combo
This thing and the french corsair are my arch nemesis in war thunder. There's a reason I have the tag anti air and am very accustomed to seeing the wing breaker in my results at the end of the match
Always a pleasure to watch you fly. Great video Odd!
Combo vids are my absolute favorite. Way to go with another heater of a video Odd
love the tank plane combos, cas is like the icing on the cake in the videos.
4:51 You can hear the Tiger, Odd.
It's probably a part of watching it not playing, but I heard the Tiger that got you; right side audio while you swung to engage the panther. lol
This BR is near perfection, without going past 6.3 you can have so much fun in exceptional usable vehicles and the fights can be long and personal. Very memorable BR
It's so cool that these are me and yours favorite
I love that I'm not the only one with the graphical bug where the rockets actually come through the outside of their pods when they're pulling hard turns. The ZUNIs in my A-1H do the exact same thing and it drives me nuts every time. That P-51 got you killed, even with how god-tier .50 cals are he didn't have enough angle to get into the turret reliably, you did. He should have flown further out in front of him without shooting to make him turn his turret away from you. You had the cannons and rockets to do the job.
Definitely the best flying I've seen out of you, Bawz. Good sht!
Quick info, bingo is when you have just enough fuel to make it home to land, "Winchester" is when you are out of secondaries
Absolutely love your CAS videos!
Please do more CAS videos. What such enjoyment to watch you fly a CAS plane.

Naval mines are silent when dropped and have a larger explosive mass than the 1000lb. They can be nasty

6:42 Look at the rocket pods... the rockets are clipping through. lol
Do A-10 with as many 20mm pods as possible
Omg Odd, you are soo accurate with thouse rockets, great video as always
try the f105d with custom loadouts, you can carry 2 bullpups 2 3000 pounders and 6, 750 pounders. if the enemy doesnt have spaa you literally have enough ordinance to wipe their team, on a mach 2 capable jet
mad props to that Ostwind 2 for cutting down all that allied CAS
thank you Odd !!!!!!!!!!
Nice homage to Walker, Texas Ranger. How much armor can Chuck Norris's fist penetrate? All of it.
The AM-1 with the custom loadout is even more deadly in naval, too bad there is no longer a 5.7 lineup for the US! Not to mention the A-1H with Zunis, napalm, and 2000lbs bombs on 6.3!
Finland mentioned
A new OddBawZ video. My day is perfect thanks to you ^^
keep up the great work ozz
“Enemy spotted” lol😂😂😂
I actually enjoy these plane focused videos a lot more, especially as someone who doesn't do props
Ah, the Spad. I wish those were still in use.
My personal loadout is 2k lb bomb 2 tiny Tim’s 3 Mighty Mouse tubes per wing and 6 hvars
Oddbawz!!! Pleaseeee do a video on the t18b-57! It’s such an insane 4.3 cas plane
i know it's really close to the bulldog in the tech tree, so you might not want to drive it for your next video, but please try the m56 scorpion, i'm sure you'd love it as much as i do. it's fast, stupid looking, and powerful, easily in my top 5 of all tanks i almost forgot: the ontos and t92 are 6.7 as well, it's a crazy lineup if you like light armor
How is your new pc working out? Is it the same one repaired or did you get something else?
If you make a movie you can fully load the AD-4 with Napalm.
One thing i notice now when i watch this video is how you easely get like 3-4 kills while i struggle to get more than 2😂
AM-1 gets an even more absurd loadout and can use it's flaps and airbrake at the same time without any interference.
The AM-1 Mauler can now carry three 2000lb bombs, all single dropped. It's lovely
I wish there were custom loadouts for the A-4. It's a squadron vehicle, so you can get it for free but it sucks because it doesn't have a loadout with both bombs and missiles (and a few other problems) That one little fix would make it so much more viable
"as long as it doesn't unbalance the wings" fun fact, you can unbalance it, i tested it on my AU-1, just loaded up one wing with 500lb bombs and nothing on the other. it still let me fly, though it would constantly sideslip to one side and when i pulled up hard it tried to corkscrew me. but yeah, you can pretty much go hog wild on it and make the silliest loadouts you want
could you do a vid on the yeet delete cannon the Spj fm/43-44?

I wish they would add custom to corsairs, id like my 2 1000s and my hvars with the 20mms
Also the AU-1 got nerfed into the ground, you can no longer be a quasi bomber
Imo to counter CAS, make fighters without payload to be cheaper in SP.
This is still a small snippet of what the skyraider can carry. Even though the A-1H can carry more, the AD-4 still carried the same ordinance. I'm still waiting for that. Skyraiders are rad.

I would also add, limit the amount of ammo you take into battle, its the difference between being a firework show and surviving minor penetrations
is there a list anywere over which planes has custom loadouts?
Challenge time! The Japanese A7M2 has unguided air to air rockets. Try to shoot down a plane with them.

Question. Why do carry the solid shot ap? Is the damage better than the apds?
