The Italian AS 42 is an armored car that is a menace in War Thunder's lower tiers. It's pretty good as a tank destroyer and an anti-air vehicle, though it has absolutely no survivability.

I know the comment says AS 42/47, I made a slight reading error :(
ples play T-72B3 i begs u
Wawa
Bushed up Sturmtiger, please Spookston.
You can always play the one with the big iron :DDDDDD
shame on you, actually disliked and unsubbed because of that
The M2A2 is another vehicle similar to this one. It's a .50 cal on a much faster Stuart and it's really fun.
M8 LAC have .50 cal on 1.0
@@azbestowa7819op
@@azbestowa7819he made a video on that already
M2A2 really is something, alot more fun to play on than M2 atleast
@@azbestowa7819If the LAC is god tier, I'd say the M2A2 is high tier. People sleep on it. You can do well as long as you don't rush in.
11:52 Pretty much every Italian WW2 tank/ground vehicle somehow looks like a toy, and that's what makes them so charming
Even post war stuff looks like something from C&C or GI Joe
@@spacemarinesruleallthe aubl 74 genuinely looks like something out of C&C Generals
I would love to see you play the super pershing or the is-2, ik theyre kind of bland vehicles but i feel like itd make a good video
play the super pershing on simulator dude, it is HELLA anoying to deal with.
I would like to see his take on the IS-2, because IMO it was kinda bad before and is awful since the BR increase. You suffer from a massive reload and a shell hitbox that gets gaijined constantly, and you don't get much of anything in return.
@@sayerglasgow115eh idk what u talking about lol 6.3 players are braindead so I have no problem with is-2 lol
@@sayerglasgow115I mean massive reload is fair but that just forces you to play defensively. Just don’t rush lol
@@Sim6dot9 Perfect defense for a tank being objectively much worse than it's counterparts at the same or even lower BRs.
"Just hide in a corner of the map and spend half your gameplay reloading, while hoping that you never face more than one enemy within 30s of each other."
Meanwhile a Tiger I that's hull down or knows how to angle is dominating an entire sightline racking up one kill after another.
You should also try the TPK 6.41
Basically the same but it comes in a bigger size and a whole French family in it
It's just the bigger French cousin of the R3-T20-FA-HS.
@@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933 but with an entire family
@@philfree286the French family part very important feature
@@FluufyPvPTM are the Jews hidden under the floorboards stock, or is that a modification?
Spookston back at it with the gremlin vehicles
This thing used to be evil before the apcr got nerfed. 64mm of pen made it able to kill everything but a b1, meaning literally all but one tanks were easily killed with one of the fastest vehicles in the game. 48mm is okay but when the change happened, it was very noticeable
I absolutely adore this gremlin mobile. It fits so well with the other 20mms in the lowtier line up, making it feel like you have different flavors of the same vehicle. Giuseppe the gunner has eaten so much shrapnel and cannon shells, it feels like he's four crewmen in one and any solid shots will just go throw one door and out the other. By far one of my fav vehicles and as an Italian main, if I need some stress relief from high tier, the AS and the rest of the lineup gives me what I crave.
Hey Spook, I'd like to see you play the Stug III A. It's a really overlooked low tier TD that can work as a brawler with decent armor, good mobility and a quick-reloading point-and click heat dispenser.
I can attest to this. It's very strong vs low caliber weapons when angled, and uses a HEAT shell that can take out a 105 sherman from the front!
I always liked the silly Italian low teirs. Video 42 of asking spookston to play the AML-90
Yea, I enjoyed grinding most of them, they were all pretty good vehicles
I've recently been itching to play low tier after playing a couple hundred games using 6.7 Germany, so I went to use the M4A3 105, M22 and M5A1. Very fun combo in my humble opinion.
Hey Spook, you should play the Semovente 75/46 M43. It's a deeply overshadowed italian tank destroyer which can deliver an heavy punch but it's deeply ignored the potential it has. I am not gonna surrender in proposing this. I AM NOT GONNA SURRENDER, BE CLEAR! I A M N O T B A C K I N G O F F!

I think you should try the leopard 1a5. It has thermals at 9.3 and a laser rangefinder, also the reverse speed is outstanding and the APFSDS it gets is quite good.
oh yeah it is!
Isn't it a pain in the ass at that BR? I would imagine dealing with soviets in that bracket is not fun due to the turms spam
@@webig1805 Its not too bad since DM23 and DM33 takes care of it nicely. Just remember to aim lower plate or driver's port. If all else fails, gun barrel and breech are always there.
@@webig1805 I don't even see turms anymore, from 5 battles there are around 1
@@cyanaquamarinedm23 can pen the UFP at decent angles, aiming for the lower front usually ends up in a fuel tank eating everything so there is no point
When grinding Italy these tanks were a gem and now that you've played the AS 42, play the AS42/47
or black prince
Laughs in French low tier armor
man havent seen your videos in a while i had forgoten how good they were with the memes and comentary a fun time for sure
The amount of times ive gotten 12 kills in one run with the as-42 is insane, i love this italian shoot and scoot mobile, its mad powerful
Italian AB43, another goblin friendly wheeled vehicle. Would love to see you play it
Your editing, and gameplay skill is significantly better vs three months ago, just watched the Germany captured tanks video, and you do significantly better recently. Keep improving, and good afternoon.
You know Spookston is having a good time when he makes the little gnome laugh
the pop up of the cat with the "BANG" sound at 12:06 genuinely scared me. Was not expecting for that
Love your videos Spookston!❤
will love to see spookston play the Chi Ha Kai, it is a very fun little tank
spookston finally found wheres hes best as an AA, great video btw, love the content boss
I'd love to see you revisit the M60 AMBT, it is one of, if not my favorite vehicles in the game. The last video on it also lacked commentary, and I want to know what you actually think about it.
When spookston pulls his clapped out italian convertible outta the garage.
this here was the other italian one I wanted to recommend to you, i recently got 15+ kill with it, but you should do the r3 103 (the one with 2 recoiless)
man i love the sound effects on your videos
Love this content soo much man!!!!😊
If you like this one, you should try the ZSU-37 it is a very fun "aa" at 3.7 with a 37mm that gets ap. It can shred panzers indisriminatevly
and apcr which can pen the chirchill frontally
Spading that thing is a pain though.
Try the Ab43, its basically an upgraded version of this and it helped me get all the way to 4.7 before I finally decided to use a different tank. Then ofc mid tier Italy (5.0-~8.7) is op asf
Spookston: Has fun in jeep car
Gaijin: Well I guess we got to nerf it now
Surprisingly deadly with that thing. Your a legend
Also love your videos spookston, never fail to both enighten me on how a tank plays and put a smile on my face.
PS: try the Ersatz M10 if you can its very goofy
He already did
@@burntcucumber bruh im blind
Have you ever done a video on the T-35? It's a fun low-tier "Land Battleship" that can be a true beast if handled correctly.
I'd be down for that.
Theres nothing as funny 'nor hilariously satisfying as playing these goofy vehicles. Man I need to play this thing
but thanks for the great videos as always Joob!
Watching this right after your Smurfing video truly is the pinnacle of comedy
Silly goofy Italian truck
you should make a video on the mbt2000, i heard its very good for its tier. it has the dtc10-125 and has 31 km/h reverse speed, which is good for most chinese tanks
You should play the R3 T106 FA. And keep up the good work Spookston, your content is amazing.
He always makes his viewers best requests possible, awesome
Day 115 of asking spookston to play the 15cm sIG
Yazov !?
gyattling machinegun
Happy Spookston video? Wow, that's rare!
An ad for the new Furiosa movie played before your video and I thought it was your intro
day 97 : you should try the jagdtiger sometime. it's extremly slow, doesn't have a turret, gets uptiers all the time, and most importantly, you'll have to play with german teams. the very definition of suffering.
(i know he saw this comment, but imma keep at it until the Jagdtiger video is out)
we're almost in the triple digits
Fart
It’s a good day when spookston uploads
ever since you told me to grind italy for the 5.0 leopard this thing has been insane to play
Love to see Spookie enjoying 😼😻
Hearing you say you like trucks with guns on top. i think the 'Lancia 3ro' is also something you should try. it being the literal embodiement of a truck with a gun ontop
Now this, this does put a smile on my face. Thank you and have a great day. Request-Try arcade
It may have been the wrong as42, but I'm happy Spookston liked this one
I find it amusing that it gives you a Crew Replacement... For a 2-man vehicle. Ah, yes. Lemme just replace my crewmate! Oh wait! I lose one, and I insta-die!
First the P40, now the AS42, I'm glad someone sees how broken Italian low tier is
I'm so glad after years of CAS, spookston finally found Anti-Air vehicles.
I hope you do read all of our comments :) I feel like your strike such a perfect balance of entertainment, but also respect for the humans in the stories. I like this genre, and always watch with full respect for those involved
I think you should play the Cromwell some day. It's a very underrated medium tank imo, since it has some good foward speed, neutral steering and a decent gun.
God dammit, Spookston. You're going to get me playing the Italians now, just like you did with the Swedish!
Hey Spookston, just wanted to say thank you. I know I'm not as fast as usual, mainly because I ruined my sleep schedule on WT lmao. But I appreciate the videos deeply. And you help me more than I can say. In the words of John F. Kennedy of Clone High, "I like your funny words, magic man."
Total War Shogun 2 reference spotted. Much appreciated Spookston-dono! o7
AS 42 and /47 are big fun. I had a game (granted, arcade) with the /47 and i sat in one spot just raining Arties down because i got so many kills to the point where i think i got 1 arty from cool down and the rest were all from kills and i just screened their entrance into A point. All you could hear was constant arty fire
"Was that the same 140 that we killed earlier? He really wanted to seal club"
-- Spookston, after having done the exact same thing
Crusader III, my man! Seriously such a hidden gem and an absolute thrill to play.
Spook: " favorite is truck with gun"
Hey Gaijin, where's our Toyota technical tree?
the family car is one of the best low tier joy rides you can have in WT. love to see it
Spookston straight up doing drive bys.
That highway accident at 9:36 is so funny. Just low tier shenanigans...
Speaking of the Italian tech tree, surprised to see you haven't covered the AB-43 yet. Underrated ratty vehicle, nimble, APHE with 69mm of pen and enough explosive filler to more often than not one shot Shermans, Panthers, T-34s and the like from the side.
The AB-41 is this thing's bigger brother that doesn't die to half a second of spacebar.
Interesting challenge: take out the H35 but in arcade so you having a absoulte doo doo tank balances the doo doo teammates
this baby made the early Italian tree a fun grind
Surprised you haven't done a video on the yag-10 truck crom ussr. Love that thing for one shots
I know a useful way of playing this one and its sister: Only take half ammo, then only the racks on one side will be filled, slap some branches and stuff on the opposite side and then use the car's mobility to always position yourself in a way that you're almost fully concealed by bushes while also not exposing your ammo racks to spontaneous combustion
"Where did rest of him go?" gone... reduced to atoms
The blessed icon has gifted us some of his knowledge we are grateful milord
I recognize that Fall of The Samurai trailer immediately. Nostalgia!
one of my favorite early tank destroyers
I love how it has crew replenishment when I don’t think that’d even work
the as-42 is one of my favorite italian vehicles (besides the turan iii) and i thought nobody wouldve talked about it
I don't even play this game I just watch your videos because they're fun
You should also play the canon variant of this thing, it was my fave at that BR
This is what I used to grind early italy when I first started playing the game its so good
1:02 I love how the child in Spook just enjoys witnessing gravity xD
Hello Spookston! Amazing video as always! But my main thing; please play a Chieftain not really for any reason I just like it. Thanks!
That thing definitively get bonus point for the drip
When Italy is secretly strong just like in Hearts of Iron IV when played right
I was just playing this, and thought "Spookston should make a video on this tank" and what do I see when I open youtube?
"I don't remember that being in the movie"
Its something from the books that they cut like those 50 pages of Tom Bombadil Stuka-ing himself.
i love it when spookston goes full rat mode
Me when im in a "I dont think I can pen that" competition and my opponent is spookston
6:43 Spookston nearly met his fate with CAS again.
I swear this tank is so goofy, but loads of fun
At least we know we can expect a lot of videos if any technical gets added to the game.
This thing epitomizes "0 defense, all attack"
3:06 fantastic Tigger laugh
Spookton: I'm blind and stupid (gets 14 kills in a single match)
Me: Guess I'm also deaf and numb then.
The Italians are the peak of this trope...their Autocannoni are literally _nothing_ but Trucks with Guns. They are the best at it; almost a dozen different models; everything from 20mm chatterboxes to a literal *4.1 inch Naval Gun.* I'm just glad to see them starting to appear in WT.
ELC AMX bis is a beast, you would love it
I like the first Swedish spaa, it absolutely shreds anything at it’s br and the only down sides are that you have 2 crew and any mg can hit your gunner (that protective plate sucks) and only 3 mags of 36 bullets
when you Wiesel 1A4 and be scared of everything or Type 87 RCV (P) which is bigger, has no laser rangefinder, no thermals and is slightly higher br with the same main armament. sounds like a lot of fun to me
