F-111A can only reach 1.13 Mach with 6 AIM 9Bs, 60 minuts of fuel? AIM 9B?

I literally never do that, I fly to the side without afterburner at I dunno 300 meters above ground, which was shown in the screenshot.

I don’t play as bomber, especially when u aren’t as fast with bombs and Tornado etc dudes will just rush straight to bases while me making a semi circle, hoping that at least one base is alive and kicking? Nice advice, appreciate that

Also, and then what? If I didn’t help my team anyhow with any kill, I, theoretically destroy a base and then I can gladly eject or what, if all my team is dead by then? It isn’t even profitable to destroy one-two bases and just die

why fly 300 m off the ground, either fly at <60 or fly at 5500 m alt (right below contrails). there’s no reason to be in between either

Well some say here that it’s important to change alt when u’re being locked, and by that logic u can’t go lower than 60 meters
Also I suppose in fact I fly lower than 300 meters

Does the f111 accelerate better once you spade it? Unlocked rn it’s kinda not doing as good as i expected, those things seemed a lot faster when i wasn’t the pilot lol

I’d like to remind everyone that the F-111 was only limited to mach 1.2 and 2.5 by something that war thunder doesn’t even care about: airframe and engine lifespans. If we’re going to say these are hard limitations then the F-14 should also be limited to mach 1.5 and 6g per its flight manual. In real life it was barely supersonic carrying 6x AIM-54. I find it extremely frustrating that the F-14 is given such huge handholding gestures to give it its maximum theoretical, advertised capabilities, and then some, and the F-111 is basically kicked in the shins at every turn.

Also another problem is the devs not really caring about performance at altitude, as per



Here I am, losing speed in even the new F-15I which has much more powerful engines with higher specific thrust than the TF-30s that should be vastly outperforming the TF-30s at this altitude but it’s woeful in comparison to the F-111’s irl performance at this alt + 4000ft.


Losing speed. Classic.
