And nations have vehicles at the BR mentioned (by lineup) that whip their butts in the air. Those US planes then are just potential, not a given.
Laden aircraft are easy meat.
AD is possibly only one of note as cannons are nasty and that is more agile than one expects. Otherwise those vehicles are no match for same BR fighters or lower, ok the F-80 has a questionable BR but that’s US and ARB.
I see nothing meta there. CAP beats CAS.
It’s a waste because it suffers from the same problem SPAA does, it requires enemy planes in the air to be useful and that is never a guarantee, opposed to CAS which always has targets.
the BR is above the 7.7 has died since the arrival of the Xm-1, since that time the high BR by the premiums always higher, and it is not about to improve with time given the premium VII which arrive, gaijin leaves room for new players to access the HL via mom and dad’s mastercard, which spoils the battles because at the end of a vehicle he returns to the hangar after 4-5 minutes, 50% of the team has left , I fell 1 hour after the update of the new premium VII, 5 minutes of play with the USA and UK in the same team, 80% of the team left for the hangar, there should be a penalty for people who leave at the end of a gaijin vehicle, thanks in advance
But “every match is dominated by planes” so always targets.
Or if not and that is an exaggeration then takes a few minutes to land and rejoin.
Nay sayers I can only guess want their CAS unopposed?
Destroying all the enemies CAS happens and is helpful to my team. Win/win.
Every match is dominated by planes, even though that is not what I said.
Half of them are absolute buffoons however that crash before you can spawn SPAA or a fighter and now you’ve screwed yourself out of SP and wasting your own time, you wont get SL, you wont get RP and the person you tried to kill is already in a tank being useful, unlike you.
I did not say you did. It is a general “feeling” topics start with.
Until you are. To put off CAS spawning (if they are one of the few thinkers), and not sure how long it takes you to land, j out, rejoin, but for me the match is still happening, enemy CAS is minimised, my vehicle choice is still relevant (back in a tank).
It is not like SP is lacking. And landing means no loss of 100 tickets.
Depends on the match but so does every decision. And players are buffoons on ground and in the air, not everyone is tuned in.
I promote intelligent fighter use, it works.
It takes a fair chunk of time to go back and land, only for a plane to spawn after you’ve landed anyways, as if you haven’t wasted enough time and SP at this point anyways.
Regardless US by far has the best CAS who also end up being competent fighters that beat almost all other CAS planes out there and even dedicated fighters at times.
You can keep saying it is a waste but it is not. And it takes very little time to return if needed, without crashing. It just is not a waste and your team now has less threat from air.
I have a lot of planes that laugh at that. Best CAS? Yeah mostly, especially volume as the more accurate single bomb fighters get one target at best where US do have multi-drops now on a fair few. Best fighters? no way at these low alts. A decent fighter pilot in many nations gobble these US up.
Think quicker, learn to RTB correctly, then you will profit.

Took me 50 seconds to get to the AO, took me double that to get back and land at 1:40 + 50s = 2:30 + whatever time I spend flying around, if I linger for 1 minute that’s 3:30.
With a lot of games not lasting much more than 10 minutes that’s easily 30% of the game wasted accomplishing nothing spawning in a fighter.
Time that can increase a lot with a slower plane or at higher BRs where you spawn over 10km away regardless of what plane you have.

A fighter yes, not their CAS plane, a BF 110, Me 410, Do 335, Fw 190, 262, Arado, IL-2, Su-6, P1Y1, B7A2,… which of these are going to easily beat American CAS? Which are often enough full blown fighters carrying bombs anyways.
I didn’t say use CAS I said a fighter. I am not horny for air to ground kills, personal preference I am sure.
B7A2 is friggin awesome though, and IL-2s can dunk on fighters due to survivability and often good cannon. Rear guns get limited view though. In terms of CAP not CAS. I loved the B7A2 for low level fighter removal; flips around like a chad and those cannons, when working, are evil.
I used Spits, Typhoons, the many others, A7M2 is king, then one of the Russian ones (2 250kg bombs, “I” something or other, dirty FM as usual). Germany is mostly sucky for low alt, but played correctly still are not to be totally ignored. As CAP , not CAS. But I am there to stop them.
And I said
that beat almost all other CAS planes out there
Which is a big advantage for US as they get a CAS/fighter option where some barely get either one of those.
that does only work if you camp their air spawn the entire game. otherwise its beyond useless
No, it works. Don’t need to camp airspawn.
Of course you don’t want to promote it, you want easy kills with no threat.
I made the effort to stop that and it works.
Beyond useless? Total guff.
yea works vs nations that have crappy planes or dont spame many, certainly not vs. US
Lol, easy meat. Sorry, them laden planes are just SL in reality.
1 squishy SPAA with a non-SPAA player v US CAS hellbent on their death:
Plane spam/use does not definitely lead to a win. Probably helped I was not spawn sitting but was being an aggressive SPAA, but my own team did not go to air as the enemy did (I am not a good SPAA but the SU has a good gun and was caught out on a reload as the last one came in).
A lot can happen in matches. Of course my team was fine on the ground so I finished off with my fave A7M2 (a titan as CAP in low alt GRB)
yea absolutely and will determine the outcome of the battle.
Apart from all those matches where a team going air too much loses.
SP is too easy to come by where you can afford to spawn a plane and do whatever.
