🛩️ Crash Course: Ground Attack Aircraft / War Thunder

Right off the bat: ground attack aircraft come in a lot of different flavours. The American A-36 Apache that doesn’t carry any bombs can actually take on many fighters. The Soviet Il-2 or the American Skyrider are considered to be classic single seat attack aircraft.
There are also twin-engined A-20s and PBJs — while the Italian Piaggio P.108, which is basically a modified heavy bomber, is powered by four engines.

Trusting my teammates is a huge mistake. They never get good shots until I'm dead

[pokenaut]

They attacc
They attacc
But most of all... They attacc.

Me, a ZSU 23 4: Oh really?

Dont uderestimate those random cheeky aa implacments scaterd around air RB maps, they get your oil when you least expect it.

One mistake i always make:

Ask for cover while bombing

**20 seconds later**

**My aircraft explodes**

[gurpritbains]

NO P2W MECHANICS NEEDED IN WAR THUNDER THANK YOU.

[Halinspark]

"...and why you (yes, you) keep losing while flying Ground Attack aircraft."

Hah, jokes on you. I already know I'm not a good combat pilot.

[jankozuch]

Don't add P2W upgrade modifications!

[spindash]

mistake number six: you're too stingy with your ammo. Don't try to only use exactly as many rounds as needed to destroy a pillbox. As nice as it is to be able to secure more ammo to kill more pillboxes before rearming, it's better to take one out in a single pass then to try and go around, then get shot down on turn 2, or to simply not have the altitude or airspeed to turn around

Gaijin the new upgrade modifications are a bad idea we get no fpe stock but other enemy players can have 3 Extinguishers
This isn't fair and makes it harder for the individual player to play

[calamatias]

I found the best trick to do Really Sharp Turns have the engine speed turn down to 6% then make the turn and go back to 100% Thrust

[typethunder]

“Why you, yes we mean you, keep losing”
-And I took that personally

[sukhoi]

This is my favourite thing to do in the game, tank realistic mixed battles. Taking out tanks from above is just so so satisfying

5 years playing this game that I love so much, the research has been tough but rewarding, I put some hard work to get to the Leopards while I was learning how to play properly. And now a level 1 NOOB can buy hes way up to tier 6. GG WP

[danishstuff]

4:39 yes, i remember playing a Yak-2 KABB or the Yak-4, i wiggle my plane and the enemy fighter behind me surrender because he cant hit me so he return to the battlefield

[spoderman]

4:53 that is if those random hits don’t hit your pilot or engine

[edelweiss-]

The new bombs for the he 111 are EPIC!!!!. Thx for that gaijin❤
