2 of 3 HE shells have very high fuze sensitivity threshhold. When firing HEF with 0,8mm basically you have to hit a tough part of aircraft (engine, spar, armor, landing gear, weapons, fuel tank, pilot) to make the shells explode. So if you just hit fuselage/wing skin, your shell passes clean through. HEF-T or HEFI-T (can't remember) has 0,1mm fuse sensitivity, but it has rather small explosive filler, so either way - it's frustrating as hell, basically you can't use any mixed HE/AP belt, you can't use the most potent HE shell (HEF), it's tracers belt or bust.
It is honestly cathartic to watch DEFYN show us how it's done! I guess I'm not positive why we need to drain the enemies' balls, but I can only think that it is because that's where they store their pee..... Thanks for making and sharing your videos with us DEFYN!! I just unlocked a Japanese plane that has upward facing dual 20 mil called Schrage Musik and would really appreciate a demonstration!
Ki-200 was my first jet ever in War Thunder. Gimmicky, fun, i think i got 2 kills in 15 battles. Kikka was my second jet ever. I finally have fuel for the entire match. Somewhat 1 kill every 5 matches. Then, this veteran War Thunder players comes with "Kikka will test you" "You are playing chess" while i'm a complete newbie to even Energy fighting and bnz. I guess i should swallow my pride and abandon the Japanese air tree until im good enough with the game
Imho France is the best air tree for learning. The planes are all kinda mediocre so they force you to learn how to play. Japan air low tiger is kinda just cancer that teaches you to turn fight everything, but once you know how to turn fight well, and how to energy fight, you become an absolute monster.
Starting off with ONE cannon with 50 round and at a tier you can see Su-9s and shit is just plain rediculous. Japan gets cucked out of so many useable planes because either 30 min min fuel or uptiered to shit bc no one bothers to learn how to fight it
1:50 what was the reasoning for going after the F-80 instead of the dorito? If that Ho229 wasn't completely tunnel visioned, it looks like you were right in front of him and he could have killed you easily.
You can tell hes still shooting at the other guy as i am going for the f80 If i saw the shells stop I would've dipped earlier The horten isn't a plane that can roll over fast and get shots on me so I wasn't too worried about him I didn't go for the horten because i couldn't pull into that shot but I wanted to keep my teammate alive
The Kikka was my very first jet. It took me quite a bit to learn, but now it holds a special place for me. I miss when it was 6.7. Also, I will never understand why it’s stock grind curses you with only one gun.
I actually had the best time in a stock grind with the kikka. Every match I had stock with it I got upwards of 5 or 6 kills and at the very least 2 kills. And I was only level 50 I believe at the time. So I don't really see the point people are saying about it being terrible at stock. But I'm interested on seeing why people think that.
@user-ei2bu9kb6n the guns were better back in the day, the plane was a lower BR, there was less things that were just better than it like the su11 for example, so on.
They nerfed the gun??? I wanna cry.. I remember these were like 1 shots and so satisfying to snipe with Also thanks for playing this plane. I did want a more recent/updated video of the Kikka as I did personally find it a fun plane to fly (tho a bit of a slow gameplay style). Albeit that I haven't flown it in a while, so I had/have no clue what happened to it.
could you fly out the il28sh? its actually kinda fun plane cause you can equip 2 gsh23ls and kill anything in a head on and the air spawn actually gives you a massive advantage over any everyone else while the turret is a great way of discouraging anyone from tail chasing you
Is the second seafire (The first one with a meteor engine but not the FR47) in the British tech tree a good choice? If so would you consider doing a video on it?
Hey Defyn, have you tried flying the F-16As at 12.0 recently, the matchmaker right now is quite forgiving for the plane. You mostly get downtiers nowadays rather than uptiers. Its almost like 11.0 but at top tier
Oh ya the Kikka I sure really did like this when it was a bit lower BR it was a monster. I like 🪰'ing heavy manuverable🧱's gets your mind and equilibrium strong 😁 This thing is not fun fighting against the La200 that thing smokes the $h!T out of the Kikka. Wait what brain are you supposed to fly it with the one in the pants I been doing it ALL wrong this whole time. Good choice of plane is nice to see these ranks being shown.
It doesnt really keep up with the 262s. It could really be moved down in br just a hair. Maybe 6.7, 6.3 minimum to be just a hair higher than the salamander.
can you do a quick video about your settings? im trying to use the keys but it turns and pitches too much and the mouse still influences the plane. i have the mouse view and mouse aiming set all the way down, are you holding free look in the loop? sometimes your ailerons go hard and sometimes they go a little i cant tell exactly what you're doing with ur fingers and it never looks like you're using the keys when you're shooting someone. i might be better off just getting good at mouse aim mode idk but please link the video if you've already made one.
This is the onky Aircraft that I believe should have too Seperate variants with the Otsu(I believe the modification name) at 7.0 and the Kikka(Early) at 6.7 much like how the Yak 15's are Overall air should be decompressed by moving Props between 1.0 to 7.0 with Shitfire mk 24, F2Gg, and P51 to 7.0. Early Jets, late WWII bombers(B29/Tu4), and A2D from 7.0-8.0, and traditional Jet fighters from the 1950s and onwars from 8.0-15.7
There was a nerf with the update??? NO WONDER WHY IM MISSING!!! I used to snipe with the 30mm. I’ve found that the default belt works best after this last update too
Definitely fights like a 190, but as if it was on rails. Odd that the type 5s are struggling. I've had a lot more luck with the j2m5, at least against fighters. I could forgive the faults of this plane if the guns worked like they used to.
Kinda unrelated but how can I make the aiming circle follow the crosshair when controlling the elevator manually? Mine just stays in the starting position making manual elevator control annoying.
OK I will stop with La-11 spam, it is quite stupid by now. Alas, I will still occasionally remind about it, but I didn't know about whole Patreon thing
Wow almost starting to think DEFYN does have paid actors in the game I have seen quite a few of the same people in these games as we as in games before on other videos.....ha you ain't catching me on this one and being stiff is a given when using the Kikka 😋 Nothing wrong clapping the enemy for a second time(double tap to put em asleep) when its a F-80 and you have Germany as the team nation along with Japan.

There roams a bird, with an unusual sight.

Of magic and mystery, old and new.
It soars through clouds, with a curious hum,
Chasing shadows where the moonbeams drum.

To realms uncharted, where fantasies grow?
With propellers that spin like spinning tops,
It dances with stars, it never stops.

KI-83 once it's fuel gets down around 15mins is based tho
1:50 what was the reasoning for going after the F-80 instead of the dorito? If that Ho229 wasn't completely tunnel visioned, it looks like you were right in front of him and he could have killed you easily.
You can tell hes still shooting at the other guy as i am going for the f80
If i saw the shells stop I would've dipped earlier
The horten isn't a plane that can roll over fast and get shots on me so I wasn't too worried about him
I didn't go for the horten because i couldn't pull into that shot but I wanted to keep my teammate alive
I grinded a lot of Japan with the Kikka a couple weeks ago and tbh it felt surprisingly good. Same with KI-200
The Kikka was my very first jet. It took me quite a bit to learn, but now it holds a special place for me. I miss when it was 6.7. Also, I will never understand why it’s stock grind curses you with only one gun.
It used to be 6.3 and recently the guns were nerfed to 770m/s instead of 920m/s like all Japanese 30mm's

I recently played Javelin for Britain and it also very demanding to your skill, maybe even more than kikka
Happy Birthday Defyn🎉. Here’s to another good year❤

So many War Thunder TH-camr sound super jaded lol
This perfectly explains the experience of flying the Kikka
the kikka mainly tests your nerves.
really don't understand how this thing is equal to P-80 or su-9/su-11
thats actually one of the best videos you ever did

Exacly the review I need!
The kikka was my first jet. It's not the best, but it's seriously awesome and fun as hell for me
Infuriating to see what they did to one of the deadliest guns in that BR...
Babe wake up defyn dropped a kikka video
I personally love this plane, the 2x30mm hit hard
It truly tested my patience when I first got it: 1 gun with very few ammo.
Hey Defyn, have you tried flying the F-16As at 12.0 recently, the matchmaker right now is quite forgiving for the plane. You mostly get downtiers nowadays rather than uptiers. Its almost like 11.0 but at top tier
wtf are theey done to my lovely kikkas bullets?? It was almost like 1 shot 1 kill and now just hits.
kikka is honestly fun to play. hard but so rewarding when you pull off a kill.
14:20 when I was less skilled I would get upset at the guy who outfought me and try to give the kill to someone else
leaves us dripping once again

Remember when DEFYN used to roast this plane for being too undertiered? How things had changed.
I had a very nice game in the Kikka a few days ago with 7 easy kills in a downtier
And rocket booster were bugged too when i first played it (now fixed though). Had to J out and rejoin to ensure it not rip undercarriages off.
Please how do you fixed the rocket? I don’t know how to take it off
Its called rocket booster in the controls
muchas gracias Maestro!@@DEFYN
Just in time. I just unlocked the kikka
could u fly out either of the 8.0 f9fs love them
I am so sad they nerfed japanese 30mm so hard
Since its almost plays like kikka la-200 video when
Kikka is fun, hard to fly taught me to really fly jets
Remember when its 102% throttle was OP acceleration at 6.7!!?
could you look at the sadness of the mig21 Lazur next?
How do you get the fuel timer to start at 5 minutes? Mine starts at 2.
