Full AV-8A Review - Should You Buy The AV-8A? Is It Worth It? [War Thunder]
Ойындар
While the AV-8A in the American air tech tree is very powerful, it has one nagging fact that prevents it from being sought after by more people - it directly competes with the F-5C for purchases. That said, is the AV-8A still worth it? I go over all that and more, and let you know the answer to the question - Should You Buy The AV-8A?

You should put an update in the description as you can create custom loadouts for the AV-8A now so a few of the downsides are gone now
You seem to miss one thing... The AV-8A can be much more comfortable to grind as it is more likely to downtier or play in 10.0 and lower matches. The F-5C is VERY regularly up tiered to 11.0 matches which can severely hurt your grind speed if you get skyflashed b4 you even drop bomb or kill someone. A thing to keep in mind. This alone makes me prefer playing the AV-8A over the F-5C most days.

Things to consider is that top tier costs a stupid amount to get to, 1 million SL +200k to crew the f4c and f4e.... SL will definitely be the issue, you can get the RP quick but the SL grind sucks. I have 220 games in the f89d and gained 4.32 million SL which is about 20k per game.

Thank you for the review, I bought AV-8A on discount to play with my friends on air sim and to take out helicopters and aircraft in Ground realistic. Once I get the hang of jets, I probably get the F-5C later, hopefully during summer sales.
I’m definitely going to get this plane whenever I can. I was going to get the F5c but it really does not have favourable matchmaking, while this does. Harriers also look super good
This harrier has ballistic computers for its cannon as well. It’s not useful in air to air combat, but can be extremely useful attacking ground targets in air rb. You can save a tons of ammunition and gets more targets before you run out of ammo or fuel, it takes only a few round or a single tap to take out a soft round target like AA gun. This helps you to grind some extra xp and sl when your team is is winning, I found it’s very easy to take out 8+ some time even ~20 ground targets in a round. Btw, the counter measures pod takes up the 500lb bomb’s slot not the 1000lb bomb slot, so it’s not a big lost. I would take 2*1000lb bomb and the counter measures pod layout in most cases. My basic routine for this plane is fly low at high subsonic, take a detour, drop bomb at enemy base, and come back to air combat
i like av8a because if you get wing blown off you can use thrust vectors to avoid a spin, and fly back to base like a heli

Good review, came very close to picking this up. Your review confirmed my hesitation. Can't wait to see what's up next. Have a great day!
My 1st Harrier was the GR.3 that i had a relatively good time with, and only took a few days to spade, after I unlocked the bombs. Its VTOL only came useful once on Severesk-13 where in a late game i managed to land on the roof of that school building at B and capture it (harder to land this than a heli btw), and i was giggling a lot when the enemy was running circles around the zone having no clue whey they can't retake it.

If you are questioning what you should use to grind the F14, the AV8 is 100% the way to go. It has a much better BR than the F5 which will be constantly uptiered when the f14 releases, and the A10 while good at CAS, it is unreliable in air RB.
You missed a key thing on both gr1 and av they both can land and rearm at helicopter pads is ground rb. Yes it takes a bit of skill but its much quicker then flying all the way back too the air field
I don’t know why people still think the gr1 and SRAAMs are op, the thing is literally too slow to use the SRAAMs and everything else is too fast. Plus its repair cost is 12k sl despite it being a premium plane

Very informative, thanks :)
I think the harrier stacks up well to the F5 simply because it’s a whole bracket lower and I think it handles uptiers better than the F5 in my experience
Doesn’t have the best ground attack load out but you can rearm at hell bases in ground rb which is pretty nice.
The Harrier is better for new jet players, you’re carried by missile and flares, the F5C requires guns, and is 10.3 so you explode.

This plane is fairly OP in sim battles EC matches. Just a heads up. I know sim battles aren't that popular but this thing is a real pain to fight as the missles are fantastic vs. mostly aim-9b and gun armed fighters. Plus it is super fast there as well.

'For dogfighting, it is incredibly maneuverable' Press X Doubt. My friend bought this last summer, we flew together for a few matches, he informs me on the god tier AIM-9G, the seemlingly bottomless supply of Flares, but also an absolutely god awful turn rate. He wasn't using his thrust vector at first but it doesn't help at all anyways. We later did some 1v1s with his AV8 versing my F-100 and Phantoms (Both C and E), We concluded that the AV-8A has little chance at beating the F-100 and F-4E in a dogfight, and goes basically toe to toe with an F-4C phantom. I would class that as god awful dogfighting abilities.

I love you harrier jets there so much fun to fly and love you vid
the av8a overheats because it overheated in real life. thats how it was made bud. the engines were never ran in real life over 75% for more then 2 minutes. they only used them over 75% when taking off or when needing extra power for a short duration. dont use throttle in game past 89% for long when it gets yellow i turn it down cause orange hits right after quick. when it gets dark orange turn back down. the more you stay in dark orange the more your engine gets fucked up and the temp where red starts gets lowered the longer you stay in dark orange. so if you stay in dark orange you will reach red quicker and quicker each time you repeat doing it. dont worry it is still faster accelerating then almost every aircraft up to 10.3 even at 75%-89% throttle.
Flarrier-8A
I agree with everything besides the dog fighting lol
The thing that I fear most is the snail decides to nerf it by taking out its CM, not gonna lie I've got the GR1 with a 90% discount and then about a week they decide to nerf it. :( Even though I got that much discount I feel betrayed. 10.0 BR is not that fun most of the time, while everybody can best you in all aspects. If your team furball has fallen apart there is nothing you can do even run.
Harrier is not as maneuverable as most jets around it but it has speed I recommend climbing high bobbing a base going back up than diving for 2 missile kills then repeat this is fire American harrier

I'm considering buying it, just to skip the American 9-10, did it for Rus and Germany. not a fan of the 9-10 grind.
As someone who plays sim, the av8 isn't worth it. It's in the top tier bracket alongside the F5. The f5 can carry more ordinance, is faster, more agile and a great great dogfighter. The harrier is more limited in its capabilities. So for anyone thinking or purchasing 1 of the 2 aircraft, get the F5

depends, if you're looking for a pure fighter then the F5C is a better choice since its turn rate are quite excellent, however keep in mind that as a F5C owner, I do get uptiered often to 11.0 which are Viggens, MiGs and Phantoms playground. Mostly, your only choice is to head-on enemies at that tier unless you can catch supersonic jet with the AIM 9E or the cannons. Downtier however, the F5C is quite good albeit watch out for A5c with their magics. On other hand, the AV-8A at 9.7 got lot of countermeasures and 2x AIM 9G (which is the missile of the British Phantoms at 11.0) and for a premium, the repair cost aren't really that high compared to the British one as said by Tankenstein himself. The AV-8C on the tech tree one boast higher repair cost obviously (higher than British GR.1 if spaded)
In real life the AV-8A has a 12k/min climb rate.

They're decent. Not great, but not the worst. You pretty much have to be directly behind someone and they have to not use countermeasures, but it will track through some light maneuvers by enemies.
Please update the video, because it is outdated !!! E.g. there no airspawns anymore

@@dablb the russian jets that are at 9.7 have missiles (the Yak-38 gets R-60's at 9.3 where you rarely see flares - Yak-38M get R-60's too) yeah they might be only 10g's but they still get them + every 9.7 russian jet has a higher top speed than the AV-8A, im not saying the AV-8A is bad i own it and its amazing, but no its not op. (it does have flares which is a little unfair but it has a very bad turn which makes it hard to dodge missiles)
