What's your favorite tank, or plane, in-game

legit as the title says what is your favorite tank or plane its BR, nation and possibly why if you care to elaborate, To me its the Jagdtiger,


huge point and click gun, decent reload (I’ve gotten it down to 19-20 seconds) amazing armor at range and even in CqC, only bad side is the trolly volumetric bs that you encounter, and the fact that she is FAT

For planes probably either the Corsair or the A10 As there both very nice planes, and the Corsair was one of my Great Grandfathers favorites. But mainly I like the A10 because its great for sim ground pounding bases and its genuinely a good plane

and as for boats its the Z47


mainly because I got it at a 75% discount (400 or so GE) and its helped get a decent amount of research

In game? FV107 Scimitar

to play? Ram 1, only because gaijin could not have screwed up the modelling of the scimitar more if they tried

typical Gaijin for you, screwing things up and just letting them be forever or until they get enough backlash

Talking on the Meta: my favorite vehicle is the Type 89 infantry fighting vehicle: it’s fairly mobile, decent cannon, when compared to similars like CV 9035 with clip-fed, is much more reliable in firepower as well, might be even better when compared to larger autocannons available around there. In general my favorite vehicle might be the BMP-3, I like how I need to have a slow approach with this vehicle in contrast to the chaotic mobility in the BMD-4 series, setting a spot behind and popping turrets using the low pressure high explosive 3OF70 is fairly fun in my opinion, though require knowledge. Also Type 16 (P), certainly dubious spot, good thermal quality, decent ammunition and mobile, kind of hidden gem vehicle with blantant superior characterists to most things at this battle rating. Airplane regards I prefer most striker aircraft, or anything with ballistic computers or bomb sight so I’ll be able to play air simulator battles more comfortably, evading most engagements while gaining my points.

P40E1 it’s iconic

I love that one tank that has a gun and that plane that has a few wings. Can’t be more specific than that, sorry.

Aircraft… Im rather partial to the Tornado GR4 at the moment. Its funny trolling aircraft I have absolutely no buissness even fighting.

Just needs BL755, ALARM and Brimstones and it will be hella fun

Ground… Stormer HVM, Challenger Mk2 or FV4030/3. All rather solid vehicles at the moment, though none I can be bothered to play currently.

Naval… HMS Belfast or HMS London at the moment, use to be Rodney, but they’ve ruined top tier balance and its now not fun to play

Definitely the Ki-87 it’s genuinely so obscenely stupid. It’s so fun to play and kinda really good. I don’t understand why people don’t like it. 27 deaths and 82 kills is really good - for me anyway haha

Air sim perspective.

I love the Corsair. Funny wing shape.

In-game, I enjoy the F4U-4 variant because I can actually see behind myself. She’s pretty easy to handle, almost to the point of being too easy and it’s part of why I ended up leaving her for the 109F4 which feels a bit more lively and unruly alongside the G.55 Sotto 0. It is my hope that with the fixed elevator, she’ll be more fun to fly in the sense of just piloting the plane from the getgo.

I quite love the 109F4. With the 109F4, I feel like given enough skill gap in my favour I can do everything. If I can’t, then it’s because I haven’t used her properly enough in contrast to say using a dedicated turnfighter where I feel completely out of my element dealing with people who don’t take the bait and I just wave my fist at them as they fly away or a dedicated BnZ plane where if I get caught at approximately equal-energy I need a near-perfect play to have hope of winning. With the 109F4, I feel as long as I start with equal energy I have a fighting chance against everything but spitfire Lf Mk Ix and Ki-84.

For tanks,

I quite loved the Sherman Firefly and its ability to eat tigers for breakfast with its strong penetration when I did GRB as my main meal.

Strv 103 C

Unconventional tank, unconventional tactics.

By far one of my not only favorite tanks but also best performing.

Aircraft, has to be the F2H-2 but it’s not as good as the F8F-1, which is easy to play. My favourite tank is the T26E5, good all round

F-16C,She has a powerful engine and the best cockpit view

For me it is the QN506. I think it is my most played vehicle. Something about it just works for me. Maybe its the 30mm, atgms, and 4 fnf missiles.

It is surprisingly good at downing low flying aircraft/helis with it’s tracking radar or what ever it has.

I remember crafting this tank was tedious. Those first on the market tried selling it for over 2000 usd which made me laugh.

Plane: The F2A-x series Buffalos/Swedish (Finnish) B-239

Tank: They all suck. There are ones I WANT to be a favorite, but all tanks are equally disappointing

Ship: Can’t decide between USS Moffet or HMS Cadiz Nuts

Jagdpanther. It was the first model kit I built with my late father when I was a kid.
For aircraft it is the Bf-109 E.

M1 IP for tanks
Probably F-11F for planes

Both fun vehicles with one super good thingy that makes them odd in their own right. I enjoy both of those vehicles very nuch

As i fly only planes:

The Swiss C-3604 at BR 2.7 in the German air TT.

Amazing turn performance if you use a joystick, good 20 mm cannons (absent in the German TT thx to MG 151/20 nerf) and challenging lobbies as you are usually surrounded by entire lobbies with Bf 110s and Me 410s which get stomped by US/USSR/UK single engine fighters, so in 60-70% of those matches i am the last player of my GER team.

Currently i sit on 1.413 kills vs 56 deaths.

My last really good match (7 kills, 1 enforced headon):

Gaijin Entertainment - Single Sign On

Highly recommended - but be aware of that 60-70% of your battles are full uptiers.

Edit:

A typical match from today - 7 kills, 6 of them whilst playing 1 vs 8 (i don’t count my last teammate in a DB-3. Enemy aircraft stomped my team team (as usual):
