APS doesn’t really work against drones dropping munitions vertically on top of it as we saw yesterday IRL, the problem is that in the modern world drones are more of a threat to tanks. So maybe we’ll see vertical APS systems??

1:54 Yeah. That's what i've always felt in the Merkava, any of the 5 or 6 or however many there are. I get one-shotted more than i get to use the "troll" armor i've heard so much about. It feels so good to hunt mobile missile platforms though. Or simply blow up missiles incoming from KA. 50 or 52

Interesting coincidence

The GBU15s on the Barak are so nice for knocking out SPAA, long range and massive warhead if it does end up missing.

a video with the Barak 2 would be amazing

1:50 as a merkawa player im gonna say that this is absolutly correct camo

Justin: lets release the Merkava video what could go wrong The middle east exploding:

matter of fact all the best MBT weakness only a small drone carrying a bomb and could detonate from far away

I'd love to see gaijin add a new abrams. M1A2 SEPV3 with the same APS would be really fun.

impeccable timing

I hate breslau, mostly because of the 2 big main roads which allow you to just lemming train torwards the enemy spawn which teams too commonly tend to do.

Good timing

I know what isn’t intentional but this timing was hilarious

Would definitely like too see a Barak video

The turret on the merkava should be a lot stronger than it is, it would easily stop its own top dart in the real world. By that I mean the dart in game it probably wouldn't stop dm 63 for example

yes you shoud make an video on the new F 16 in isral and i am grinding isral rn and ther is no that have comed latly on isral but then you come and now i am happy so i know how good it is at 11.7 isral :D thanks

yes a barak video would be really cool

I just got an warthunder add while watching this 💀

I would actually much more enjoy if they’d put the armor from the test Server it had, back on it

The Merkava 4 doubles as an MBT and an armored personnel carrier.

Do I get Merkava and Netz in a pack or should I buy em separately

To be honest, I started playing War Thunder again on Sunday and first thing I did was come to your channel. I watched the video before I knew wtf was goin on in the world events believe it or not. Cause I don't watch ANY news what so ever. Nor read about them. I think important things, like that, I will hear about them eventually. And after watching your stream 2 days ago I came back to see what is the fuss about. Cause I usually don't read any comments. I just watch the video and move on but damn..
