skill issue
The 77 mm of the Comet (actually a 76.2 mm cannon) fires the exact same rounds as a 17 pounder. The difference is that the 77 mm uses casings that are far shorter and less powerful.
Previously, the 77 mm APDS was only slightly weaker than the 17 pounder’s APDS round, 220 mm vs 228 mm of 0 degree pen at 10 meters (keep in mind, early APDS rounds had far better slope modifiers back then). This is despite the fact there’s a nearly 200 m/s difference in muzzle velocity between these two rounds.

Dude, without radar and just firing a gun into the sky, its not easy to hit a plane. You’re either stalling out or flying in a straight or predictable path. Cope n seethe, brother. Cope n seethe.

Its not bad vehicle in any way but its not precise and its bullets arent as fast as 50 cal for some reason. It is kinda a 3.3 material.

Not easy to hit ww2 planes? How do all these spaas get kills in battles? XD
Come on, don’t talk nonsense, it’s possible, especially since you’re kind of forced to fly over a fairly small battlefield in ground battles, in the sense that you have to fly through this battlefield anyway.
Unless you like to fly and do nothing, or just fight planes.
These are not jets that fly across the battlefield in a fraction of a second.
Brother. It’s nearly impossible to directly hit a plane thats maneuvering unpredictably unless you have a goddamn flak cannon. What are you even talking about?

Have you seen how fast it kills on any hit from the HE belt? This is material for a higher br, similar situation to Ostwind, which for some reason they lowered.
Planes are not tanks. They are not meant to be hit. If you’re playing your aluminum airframe around surviving AA hits, you’re playing it completely wrong.

You have 4k battles, maybe you are just inexperienced, there are a lot of good spaas in this game and people use them to destroy planes. idk problem.
The point is that the sdkfz has a lot of firepower, it’s not the ostwind or spaa with a 40mm gun with a slow rate of fire.
Brother what? You sound like the inexperienced one, you expect your plane to survive aa hits.

No. Read what I wrote earlier.
No. Theres no logic in it at all. You’re crying about an AA killing you when you get hit. You should instead be trying to prevent yourself from getting hit, I.E. maneuver. I’m a war thunder player with a history of whining about some shit, but I have never seen something this ridiculous. You’re mad that you got killed after getting hit in a plane?? really?

No, I’m mad at this particular spaa that has 3x15mm with a HE belt and can spam around the sky and it only takes one hit to kill you.
I have no problem avoiding regular spaas.
That’s what I’ve always wanted in this discussion, from the very beginning, it’s not an ostwind or a wirbelwind firing short bursts that are easy to avoid.
If you can avoid other AAs, wait for it, YOU CAN AVOID THIS ONE. It doesn’t have a radar, the rounds dont make it any easier to hit than any other AA. Players like you are why some vehicles get unjust uptiers and face shit they have no business fighting.

Maybe you should play this sdkfz yourself or play against some of them in battle to understand better.
I legit use the M16 until the M163, it’s god tier AA lol

OMG what’s the argument that the spaa doesn’t have a radar, it can hit you anyway, here it depends on the player, if you have some skill you can hit it, what’s the argument that the vehicle doesn’t have a radar…
Maybe you should find a valid thing to whine about. This is just ridiculous.

Eidiculous is that a guy who has 4k battles in this game tells me that I don’t know what I see in battles and what I experience.
