Thank you so much for your precious friendship, it means everything.
Great vid! Could you do a vid on your graphic settings? They look so clean and clear
He probably just has everything on max
Hes already done that though
Nicely done, Hunter.
Thanks!
Such nostalgic music for us CoD WAW players
I think the best part about the su25 platform is how maneuverable it is even with a full wepons load. Good video hunter :)
That T-72B sight is crazy good!
55 years of Mi-24 "Hind" in 2024 and 50 years of Su-25 "Frogfoot" in 2025. Ace Combat fans missed this duo.
Not a lot of footage of people doing well with the hind, good to see! Soviet 9.7-10.3 is so stacked
The best in my experience is to use Shturm missiles at their max range, 4-5km then pull off and repeat. 9.7 helicopters are the most challenging & fun in my opinion.
Man, what a dodge at 8:45. Thanks for another banger.
I find your videos more fun to watch than the game is fun to play lately.
not gonna lie, su-25, or principally su-25m are amazing CAS plataforms.
I know, dont know why more fly the Su25M3...its bas 4 kills with the KH missles. You either run em with r73 just in case or get closerbut i just launch all rtb and repeat the same shit...got me to like 12/14 kills on a not so cloudy and a map that isnt that obstructed by buildings
Welcome back Mi-24!! Great vid as always hunter I wish you good health my brother
Thanks a lot :)
love the WAW soundtrack
What a fantastic CAS jet. Really gives the A-10 a run for its money. Barra Barra Iraqi Su-25 montage when?
Another great vid! always love it when you play the su-25, can't wait to unlock it myself keep up the good work!
What an interesting loadout for your SU25! I always think the 5x rocket pods are heavily underrated
I like the music, very awesomesauce!! I'd like to see you do that more
what an amazing work with the Su-25
world class CAS
I've been playing alot of the SU-25 lately, and I wondered how this video would go for you.
I'm glad to know I don't have a skill issue, as most of these clips are full downtiers with only 1 AA platform shooting at you if there are any at all. The 5:26 clip really goes to show how well this plane does when AA is actually blind. Getting to less than 2KM flying straight and high against a proxy spitter is insane.
I found the Rook to be absolutely god tier as long as the enemy only had gun AA's and if left alone, this plane can consistently kill entire teams. On the other hand, uptiers can be hell. Good luck against ANY optical track missile, let alone if the enemy has a fighter-bomber in the air that just dumpsters you in a fight or slams you with a PD track missile.
I've honestly gotten to where I just do not spawn this thing if I'm full uptiered. Because if you want to live you have to hug the ground, and the only strike opportunity comes when somebody is scouted so you can rake across them with rockets while praying that someone isn't pre-aiming the ridge you are about to fly over. God forbid you get spotted by a 10.7 + fighter, that's just death.
Good showing as always hunter, I was half expecting to watch you slamming SACLOS AA's from 7km with CCIP and dodging 35G optical track missiles. But luckily for my mental health, it seems even god tier players like yourself can't outplay BR compression.
I usually use AGMs, but in this video I changed the loadout a little bit. Check this video, first battle, it wasn't one AA and all of them were engaging me. th-cam.com/video/Bk2RLUw4vDc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0LU0FNrP9C4vpTue
Also, I'm not a god tier LoL. Thanks
@@Hunter_i86 I remember that one, to be fair, I'm only judging based on the loadout on this recent video as it's more like the one I run.
I'm not saying you can't just strap a bunch of 8km laser weapons and dunk on SACLOS by barrel rolling, I just think getting eye strain while using the 1x zoom is annoying , along with the fact that a single fighter/proxy shell AA is all it takes to keep you from using that approach.
I suppose my point is:
As long as you don't have to deal with too many types of threats at the same time, you can usually outplay the enemy. But in about half of the instances that I die in, it's either optical track/IRCCM missiles or SACLOS + proxy or getting tangled up with enemy air that inevitably kills me. I'm glad to see that most of what I've learned and what you've taught me simply can't compensate for BR compression simply because it means my deaths are less, and when they do happen, there's very little I could've done to avoid it. (except not engaging ever)
It's just a bit sad that "optimal" play in uptiers boils down to praying there isn't a fighter up, and then ratting around on the edge of AA range until a braindead teammate provides enough of a distraction to give you a window of attack. I prefer to actually assist my teammates on the ground and remove campers from their hidey-holes.
Thanks for the reply, and keep makin' videos, I always learn a thing or two that basically only the data miners are privy to.
As a long time warthunder player, there are lots of aspects of the game i have mastered. But I still find myself struggling flying CAS. As many other players, AA always get me sooner or later. It would be amazing if someone made a proper guide on some tips and tricks to defeat and/or avoid AA flying cas. Perhaps giving som general thoughts and ideas aswell as some in depth analysis of how the different anti air vehicles of the various tiers work (i.e missiles, radars and so on).
Would be amazing to see you share some light on this! Keep up the amazing content!
I write tips in the videos, usually they are knowledge about weapons, of planes and SPAA, for example if your RWR says "RLD", it is either a Roland 3 or VT1.
VT1 is deadly while Roland 3 is dodge-able, VT-1 is 12km while Roland 3 is 8km max, the scenario BR should tell you what that "RLD" is, 2s6 is 10km 32G missile which is dangerous as well, my point is you need knowledge, a lot of knowledge about SPAA radars, planes RWRs, planes and SPAA weapons as well. That is if you want to prioritize SPAA like I do, some people don't care, they go for tanks and die after one or strikes.
When you go to battle take a look at the X-Ray of your plane, does the RWR has IFF? If yes you will know that any ping in the battle is from enemy, what type of "Fire & Forget" weapons you have? TV, IR, GPS, unguided bombs ... etc, use them to kill SPAA, and use the laser guided weapons to kill tanks when possible.
Thanks a lot
i see you had a great taste of CoD WaW music as well i suggest giving Punishing Gray Raven's ost a try! especially Structures i think it fits for Soviet aggressive playstyle
I'll never be as successful as you with a frogfoot :' ), when I shoot my S 25O they're always offcenter to where I aim
Try putting them on the inner pylons, to get them closer to the center of the fuselage. Also try firing the rockets on the outer pylons as pairs.
Long Time not Seen you Hunter!
Welcome back brother, how are you? I hope everything is ok :)
would love to see more of this kind of vids
3:48 Vorkuta!!!
Hey man I’ve been watching you for some years and I love just about all your videos. Throughout the years my controls have changed and warthunder has added so many things I can’t get the hang of. Is it possible you can make an updated controls video and maybe explain locking on ground targets with helicopters and planes with targeting pods? I’m having a lot of trouble getting those and many other things set up.
Hello my friend, thanks a lot .. for now I can send you the controls file in Discord, just DM me :)
I dont have any Su-25s or have special interest in them but I still got Wish me Luck from the teaser saved on Spotify, I dont even understand russian
Hi Hunter like always nice video and I am struggeling with US 11.7 ground rb at the time do you have a tactic that works well for the abrams or some tips?
Hello my friend, I would care more about tanks if we have real modern maps for MBTs, I'm just rushing with HSTV-L to get 11.3 CAS. Hull-Down and play defensive with Abrams or flank if there is a chance. Thanks a lot :)
ok I will try it. Have a nice day!
Waaaaaaa world at war ost with these game is just perfect ! I love all your vids you are a realy great CAS player
8:54 😮
Could you do a low tier video one day please ?
Finally i m back and we got my fav wartunder YTber
Lov the vids hunter
I'd like to see you try F-14B with 4x 2000lb JDAM. I suspect it would be really awesome, even with no moving target capability. F&F is just that good.
Soon I hope :)
I still dont get why those two Mi-24's arent foldered they are the same helicopter in almost every sense minus one having a side mounted fixed gun
Are there even fodered helis at all yet?
@@fluffthesergal7640 no none of them are but for the most part of what I can see basically every helicopter tech tree at least gives each helicopter something more useful even if it’s a slight upgraded variant say for maybe the Bo-105’s in Germany and maybe the UH-1’s in America
Nice gameplay as always but is there any way to make my mouse move smoother because i miss some stupid kills because my mouse just jumps 1mm in another direction
I play low sensitivity, 4% "sen in zoom" in WT common controls, it takes time to get used to but I like smooth aim and gameplay. Thanks a lot :)
What do you think about the heli changes? I find it impossible to play the "low tier" ones now, one .50 cal and the avionics are gone
It feels too much yeah, at least let us land on the ground and repair some of these avionics, without returning to base.
@@Hunter_i86 That would be great, I agree
Br 10 is most enjoyable. 😄 Start game with mi24p so good heli with s8k and that canon with CCP love it. Bmp2m 2s38 su25k ❤
Greeting Hunter,
do you plan on making a video regarding the heli changes? I find them extremely unfair for everything that isn't fully modeled
Hey, could you please make a video about the Swedish Gripen CAS (if you have)? it doesn't matter if is the A or C variant
How did you make that sight at 2:40? Did you create it from that new sight creator thing, or is it something custom, because I can't seem to make mine look like yours.
Just a custom sight from WT Live
Hi Hunter! How effective would you say chaff on Helos is? does it seriously mess with SPAA radar?
Hello, not effective. Carry 75% flares and 25% chaff. At least flares can sometimes disrupt IRST lock.
baller
blyaatifull as usual :)
Thank you! 😊
Any tips on how to grind modifications for the Su-25? I tried to bomb bases in Air RB but it was impossible due to plane's speed and I became food for fighter jets.
How do you switch from 3rd person to targeting view to third person so fast?
By default 3rd person camera is "F3" and for TGP view it is "F8" keys. I assume hunter swapped them to easier positions.
Because there is a bug with TV guided weapons. They are always before the TGP view when you cycle through views with "V" key. So if your TGP target is outside of your TV weapon fov, it changes your lock, breaks it and sometimes even disables the laser designator.
How do you spot tanks like that I can never find targets
would this be the first official title typo?
Where is the mistake?
@@Hunter_i86 I think he refers to "return to the *roots*" instead of Rooks
But I have a feeling this might be intentional 😁
why only 12 min
Man, what's up with the dislikes?
It was some botting or smth like that cause it's gone now...
