One game in the Yak 9k (or T? I can never remember).
Full uptier. Advance on Rhine. South spawn.
First spawn my Kv-1 zis-5. Drive to the south-east cap. Take it. See a panther. Shoot its tracks. Get blown up.
I respawn in a 638 SP yak 9 that can one-two tap most tanks even in a full uptier.
Was this some amazingly skilled gameplay on my part? Dying after shooting the tracks off a panther?
Not in my opinion.
I can’t remember, this was a while ago and from a 2 part meme about planes in ground rb. But just from that screenshot, the first bomb looks to be way too low to still get us since he was on a shallow dive.
Schrodinger’s bomb
The lower bomb probably hit
I dont remember exactly when they introduced planes to ground. but its was alot better before they did.
after planes came all there has been is revenge bombing , and more bombing . and 0 investment in AA guns , mobile or not. they didnt even bother too add the correct sights or basic instructions on how too use the sights.
They should do a ground only mode and see what the outcome is. if its the death of mixed mode, well its fine by me

Gaijin’s focus on combined arms is essential for maintaining a healthy player base and ensuring shorter queue times.
Separating the modes will lead to longer wait times and a fragmented community.
Instead of pushing for separate game modes, we could advocate for better balancing within the existing combined arms mode?
This way, we can address the concerns of players who feel frustrated by CAS without compromising the overall gameplay experience.
This is where the paradox comes in. CAS supporters say that the dynamic between air and ground is balanced and there is no issue. Or that the only issue is a “skill issue” on behalf of people who want a ground only mode.
However, they do also not want a second Ground only mode. Why? If combined arms were balanced, people would be satisfied and few would play it. If many migrated to that mode all it would do is prove that combined arms is inherently unbalanced.
Be me spawn a click bait get 2 kills cap a point die to a strv 122+ spawn wolfpack get a kill on a 2a7 die to a MQ1 spawn spaa to deal with it die to su25k spawn other spaa kill su25k another mq1 kills me spawn m1 Bradley make it 100 ft out of spawn another su25k kills me spawn xm800t rat tank make it 50ft out of spawn and die to the entire enemy team staring at me because we were getting bombed in our spawn the whole game 10/10 definitely balanced
Like You hide behind trying to gaslight people to play what they don’t want as the “solution”?
False
That’s only a problem on maps without flank routes, and even then you can just simply let your teammates deal with em.
That’s plenty for side penning, not to mention it has APHE.
aka planes
the difference is armored cars don’t have radar and 2 fast firing 35mm.
There’s a reason Za 35 gets far more use than these “armored cars”
then that’s simply your problem
skill issue.
double skill issue
I agree, but that’s not reason the SPAA is spawned almost exclusively by low-skill noobs
aww yes, cause sitting in spawn and 1-shot planes with 1 out of 500 bullets you fired is extremely skillful.
Well guess we should give P-47s SLAPs and ballistics computers cause “We departed the land of realism ages ago”
They’re perfectly viable even without fictional ammo belts
It is in many cases.
AP pen means nothing for shooting down planes
cool. infrantry isn’t in Warthunder so all that matters is SPAA effectiveness against vehicles
the problem is your skill issue. None of your problems (e.g Bofors being too weak) is an actual problem, and is infact, just skill issue.
if you can’t dodge a 800-900m/s shell in a 500km/h moving aircraft from 1-2 alt a good chunk of your gray matter has to be missing
If you’re firing at planes outside your range then that’s your problem, not mine.
The tankers are already leaving all the time. My friends list is full of people who do not play this game at all these days. What you have left are the “tankers that are OK with flying”, or as I call them, “pilots”.
Some of the pilots make skilled tankers. Some are just in ground vehicles as needed to get into an airplane. (Those are the ones making the best rewards in GFRB) Some will want to come here and say how skillful those pilots are at tanking. I’m pretty sure you’ll see, if you watch their combats, that they are skilled in the minimum needed ground actions to get into their aircraft, and then quite skilled at slaughtering ground targets, especially SPAA and SAMs. (Mostly in ways such that the ground vehicles can’t shoot at them effectively before they are dead.)
Go play the Lvkv 42 and come back :)
He ain’t talkin bout Lvkv 42. I have the bofor truck though and it’s pretty good,
With gaijin’s calculator it wouldn’t go that high, its the same ammo as on the Bf 110 G-2’s gunpod.
But still a bit much for 3.3 I agree, though there is a ~67mm pen solid shot available too, and thus the APCR could be left to a different vehicle, maybe the Flakpanzer III. Or vice versa.
A WW2 apcr Having more pen than Modern apfsds Shells see Puma(the Modern One) and cv9035?
Will definitely be much lower in-game
The only time a fighter-bomber descends under 1 km altitude is during a bomb drop, which is probably not going to take longer than 1-2 seconds of pitching/rolling over, diving to 500 meters and pulling back out flying at very fast speeds at very high aspect to the SPAA.
