Gib all! With any one of those premium pls

Agree on colossus with the playstyle. The best match i ever had was vs like 4 German 6.3s and i managed to get a good spot behind an island. Very enjoyable

As for accuracy, its a plague on all large calibre guns though particularly for Britain with some of the largest calibres ingame with few benefits for it.

The larger the calibre the least accurate according to Gaijin, Britain has some of the larger calibre guns ingame so poor accuracy.

Ironically this is actually very ahistorical. Britain has iirc the 3 most accurate large calibre (above 10") naval guns in history the Bl 15"/42 Mk.1, the Bl 13.5"/45 MK.V and the Bl 14"/45 Mk. VIII.

The 15" has less than 80 metres dispersion at more than 10km which is good even for point blank ranges, but the gun cant shoot accurately past 7km in game.

Post disclosure. WT will get a new META 😂

Britain being able to claim the best naval gunnery during the interwar era was due to the well trained and well disciplined crews, as well as technology. This is also the reason behind high ROF of cannons. With that being said, even though the first factor is no longer relevant in WT, its dispersion should still be much better than a full straddle at 8-10nm.

I can’t believe I haven’t seen this before… They built 320 of these and they were armed, how are they not in the game yet?

Yes the dispersion is artificially nerfed by Gaijin from its 80 metres irl in width dispersion and something like 5 metres (i checked, its less than 4 metres of vertical dispersion) in vertical dispersion to a ludicrously high number that you’d probably need to check the files to find.

This is the best avatar in-game.

the game skiped over the whole wacky mid cold war stuff to fast, so many service US cold war aircraft missed

USN F/A-18C Early avionics, engine and armament 80’s technology like F/A-18A

Legacy Hornet late production with AN/APG-73 RUG I (90’s) or AN/APG-73 RUG II (2000’s), AIM-7P Blk 2 Sparrow, AIM-120 AMRAAM, AN/AAS-38A (90’s) or AN/AAQ-38B (2000’s) Nite Hawk and Air-to-Ground munitions

The early variants might be Tranche 1 standard and before integraded 5th gen IR AAM

God, the more I look into weird aircraft designs the more I despise the focus on modern era vehicles

Has there ever been a US navy plane that wasn’t an ensign eliminator?
