The plane that Ace used, must have been a cheater or something. Stupid fighter abuser

Yeah not like these were the examples that actually made it back and didn’t disintegrate over germany or japan amirite?

do bombers in war thunder need to fly all the way back to britain or some island in the pacific when they’re shot up?

Im making a ‘lil’ video for you, you’re gonna love it

No, almost like they usually end up… in the ground.

How many PB4Y-2 fire extinguishers does it have? The B-24 can be burned down by Yak-3P quite easily.

Zero. And all my fuel tanks were on fire at one point. It just doesn’t matter.

Btw, in your own document, HEI shells would set fire 12/13 times.

In game, engines struggle to set on fire at all.

I love cherry picking data

Seems realistic?

The devs either need to reassess this change or revert it completely. This is immensely overtuned and now the planes simply cannot be destroyed by regular means in the game.

Yesterday tried several games with the “realistic” new models on American bombers. Every fire got so much bored they just extinguished themselves after 1 min. The same with engine fires.

Are you BSing as from my experience, no fire can extinguish itself in AAB. Or fire nerf is just an ABR thing.

I also have footage of a G5N with 3 of its 4 engines on fire, plus a fuel fire, flying across half the map to land. That wasn’t my plane.

I had “just” 2 fuel fires and 1 engine fire.

It was quite easy tbh.

This is a much smaller plane.

Shoot the pilot, destroy the engines?
Why I am, an unskilled pilot, was able to shoot down bombers and you people can’t?

Don’t say more. You make me want to play War Thunder

Abuse bombers while you can and maybe gaijin will nerf them faster

Now try 20mm Mineshells and show us the result please.
