What is your favorite low tier (Rank II - IV) STRIKE aircraft and why?

True, I mean we can send the YaK-9K flying all the way to 8.0 where there MIGHT be a chance an SPAA player with an IQ above 90 shoots one down. I’ve seen it kill Leopard I’s.

Tu-1

I like the AD-4, but I haven’t played a lot of trees so…

IL-2 because it is IL-2.

Yea AD-4 looks awesome - actually everything in that “folder” does. I am baffled that one of the aircraft in that folder can carry 3 torps.

IL-2 so biased, Gaijin made a whole game about it! (Jo MaMa joke).

3 Torps only to get shot down 9km from 20mm from a DD.

Yea I’ve heard that torpedo bombing get harder and harder the higher (in rank) you go. That’s saying something seeing as it’s near impossible at rank 1.

Blackburn Firebrand is peak strike aircraft, fun to fly, can dogfight, has a good payload, at a low enough BR (It’s ok in ARB but in ASB it’s amazing)

The IL-8. It’s as overpowered as noob Russia and Germany mains claim American CAS is.

As for TT planes, the Yak-9K. It’s also just hilariously OP

SBD and F6F-5

Did you ever buy the Wyvern? Looks amazing but it’s not my first choice for premium vehicles.

I have it, but only for a naval Dive bomber/torp bomber, its good, but I dont use it much

Yea, although the F6F is technically a “figher” - let’s face it , when equipped with ordinance it’s an amazing strike aircraft.
