Fear not, there will definitely be more eventually. Now that devblog season is upon us once again, I'm hoping beyond reason that we'll see the A-200 (Tornado IDS) and A-11 (AMX) come to Italy as attackers, and the Tornado F3 as a fighter leased from the RAF. Probably a premium Brazilian AMX too whenever that comes. As far as ground vehicles go, basically just the Freccia variants, more Centauro variants, a few more OF-40s, and a couple more different tanks like the Leopard 1A2 and Leone, that's about all we can look forward to.
@@nikoclesceri2267 nah man, why just 47mm and 13.2?? A fucking 88 long gun and a God damn 120mm of a centauro 2, and also why not, a 356 or something like that from Yamato
Okay, cool! This one CAN carry a 2000lb, two 1000lb, AND two 750lb bombs while still carrying missiles, that is very good to know. Been wondering that since I started grinding her, but I'm just now finished grinding the performance upgrades and moving on to ordnance. Not like I intend to drag 10.7 ground up to 11.3 just to use the ASA, but still good to know. Also, I just love how the F-104S looks when she's absolutely stacked with ordnance on each pylon.
You must be warned that when carrying 2x Aspide-1A SARH AAMs you have to sacrifice the gun, because the aiming device of these missiles is attached in place of the gun pod.
@@Hunter_i86 Oh, I know. I don't intend to use the Aspides, especially in any CAS scenario. That Vulcan is FAR too useful to sacrifice for just two SARH missiles, even good ones.
@@regioammiraglio7500they are literally (look up the word literally) the worst tanks under all aspects. Im italian, italian main. The Ariete and Dardo suck ass in real life too
For a second I thought I was rewatching the F-104S video as the first clip is from the same map that that viseo was on heh, But impressive bombing and interceptions with the F-104S.ASA an damn fine teamwork with the other randoms.
Hi Hunter, i followed the closing of your posts in the WT Forum regarding the Mapfilter. Its a shame that feedback and constructive feedback isnt valued by Gajin in any kind of way, even by someone which reached your reach with 42k subs at YT, this makes it even more hopeless for us smaller YTer and normal players to change something. These small maps are really reducing WT to a COD shooter which has nothing to do with actual tankcombat - i really hope that they will change it someday, but at thr moment its looking really dire. Small maps One Death leavers (1 premium vehicle Lineups) ..and because of that extremely onesided matches especially in Hightier. Nevertheless thank you for your effort to make the game more enjoyable again and of course your content - it regulary brightens up my day! See u in the skies o7
Thanks man, we just love WT more than the company or moderators, we truly love War Thunder and just want to see it better, more immersive and realistic .. WT should be in the category of ARMA or SQUAD style, not WOT or COD. They just think it is not good for the business for WT to be more realistic and hardcore I guess. Realistic mode is becoming arcade day after day. That's pretty much the exact interpretation of why Sim modes are the most abandoned modes in the game yet they are the best in terms of gameplay, CCRP in sim doesn't work on A-4E and F-4E but from 3rd person view it works smoothly, same for TV and Laser weapons from pilot cockpit view, everything from pilot cockpit feels more buggy and glitchy than 3rd person view because simply it is not a priority to them, and I just keep reporting these issues in the CCs discord hopelessly to be honest. Last week I played MiG-21bis 2 hours air sim one battle and didn't feel the time passing .. it was a great experience, will edit and upload it soon. Stay safe brother and have a wonderful day :)
@@Hunter_i86 Oh yeah, and because of exactly that its even more frustrating to see this trend - War Thunder has a great potential, but unfortunately the effort is mainly directed into vehicles (which of course make the most money) and not in polishing maps/modes. Even its very rough comparison, just see what they made out of BF 2042, it seems that the developers just cannot grasp their own game, but even when developers play their game on stream (like on War Thunder) - its just exclusively arcade mode. In a perfect world the developer should create a environment for the game (and vehicles) which makes sense, make it playable and suit the gameplay - especially in perspective of Hightier, there shouldnt be a single "small" mode of a map available - only medium and large maps (to prevent Spawnrushing, or Spawnshooting from one side of the map to the other). At least for me its more important to have a working/logical environment, then one which was choosen by the players. Yeah, they hit SIM really hard - a lot of players left because of the repaircost madeness alone (which was done to "fix" the farming tactics of some users in self created matches), even i reduced the playtime considerably - eventhough i really love SIM (especially props), but as you said - it was never the big priority and left unpolished which is a big shame. Beside the problems with the modern weaponry, just look at the lineups they created for the Ground SIM matches - how should i distinguish a Italien M26 from a US M26, same with the japanese M24 or 76mm Sherman (especially from air), SIM just seems to be the unwanted child of an early age of WT. Nice - i am looking forward to that Mig-21bis footage! You too brother - stay save, have a wonderful day - and i hope we will see a lot more videos from you, eventhough Gajin isnt going easy on us! =)
I feel like there's not so much point in bringing the ASA to ground matches, it seems to be able to carry less bombs than the S, and Italy has no >10.7 ground vehicles.
F-104S lacks flares and any good AA missiles and since almost every game will be uptiered to 11.3 anyways its no real downside to bring the ASA. Arietes dont have armor, doesnt matter if BVM, Ka-52 or T80U shots you.
>flares : meh, not really essential on an F-104 >good AA missiles : the only upside of the AIM-9L is the all aspect, the Aspide don't count >all matches are 11.3 : right, sure... I'd rather keep a chance to face 9.7
If A and B is taken, probably the enemy is going for C or is advancing the A and B lane. The camping positions are also worth to check. And I always ping the spawnpositions to check if any SAM is up. It is easier if the enmy is moving or shooting, your teammates feedback is important as well. That said, your monitor and graphic quality improves your chance to pick an enemy. I play on a 1920*1080 15.6 inch screen so sometimes I can't see what a UHD 27 inch player can.
Great video man but I have a doubt. do you use a joystick for airplanes? or mouse and keyboard? Could you share your key configuration please? new sub. :3
I use mouse & keyboard, even in sim .. if you want, just send me a DM on Discord and I will upload my controls file to you :) Thanks for the subscribe :)
Marder A1 commander can fire missiles, you need to assign "Commander Fire Control" button, but it is not very feasible with Marder because the gunner sight is already higher than the commander optics and have the same zoom in\out.
@@Hunter_i86 i know it can fire,but the thing i don't get is why (for ex in your video)while aiming slightly out of the Russian tank the missile is still headed right towards it
I honestly really want this F-104, but the idea of grinding out the couple of F-104s before it seems so unappealing, as much as I like the other F-104s
glad I got the 104 S before the 104 G was added, because I really don't like the 104s. No CM at 10.7 when everyone else has them so your missiles do fuck all and you have basically no defense against theirs because you can't turn for shit
@@nikoclesceri2267 It makes almost no sense at all too, at least with respect to game logic. Sure the F-104S gets better missiles, but why would anyone want to play it without countermeasures at 10.7? Gaijin can’t even use the excuse of “it didn’t have them in real life” because they do shit like give German Phantoms AIM-9Js they never even used.
As someone who loves bonking people with radar missiles just stick with the sidewinders, the 104s radar isn't really good enough to guarantee the aspides will kill, especially if your low
@@Hunter_i86 Gotcha gotcha, I definitely get that, lol. I'm currently grinding top tier France and just got the F1CT's 530 Super missile. Hope to see you make a video with the F1C and using those 530 Supers! Along with the bombs of course. -Cheers!
I see they are locking all your threads that tell the facts about what is going on... I am seriously thinking of quitting the game for a while because I am sick of small maps in high tier ... it seems like Gaijin is catering to the 17 year old COD crowd... its like marketing is telling them to make the game more channeled and shootem up with instant action like some kinda of shootem up first person shooter
Yeah man, every thread that I said on "Big maps are better for top tier" or "Small maps are bad for top tier" is closed by that whoever moderator haha, I even sent him a message, I told him chill dude, what you are doing is started to feel very personal against me! lol Even when I started a new topic about the subject he closed it! I asked him in the message, dude do you hate seeing people say small maps are bad for top tier? Hilarious person.

Italy really need more love. It has almost no top tier vehicles and when it does, their repair cost is ridiculously high.

How do you even see tanks on the ground from the air, its like a mad game of pixel hunt
You have to predict where the enemy will be, then scan the area with your on eyes
It'll be easier if the enemy is moving
If A and B is taken, probably the enemy is going for C or is advancing the A and B lane. The camping positions are also worth to check. And I always ping the spawnpositions to check if any SAM is up.

Hey Hunter, what's your favorite plane, in or outside War Thunder? Mine is the F15c
Hmmm many I think, MiG-21, Mirage F1 and Hawker Hunter.
And from USA, F-18 and A-10.
I love the su-24, it’s one of the best looking jet
Italy need more attentions ! Gainjin may hate italy and France
You should make another video on the F-4E it can now take 6 mavericks and 2 guided bombs.
I did this a while ago th-cam.com/video/PEEkaUTsgQI/w-d-xo.html
Hi,hunter which shell is the best for Naval Battle,of course i play only GB and USA?
I don't play Navy, I don't know my friend .. sorry :D
why I cant find a video about this plane in german gameplay??
all youtubers use Italian one!!

Why is the atgm in the dardo headed to the objective without directly aiming the commander crosshair to it while the marder can't?
