That non-pen reminded me of a Mighty Jingles quote from like 8 years ago. "Actually, the shell hit his gun so-" "I don't _give a shit,_ that shell's the size of a small child! It should've taken the gun, tore it clean off the tank and buried it in the hill behind him!"
@@dozergames2395 It's one of the old "the good, the bad, and the ugly" videos, a T30 planted a 155 AP round into either a Bat Chat or Lorraine arty and it did exactly jack shit.
Attempt number 11 at getting Spookston to play any tank with a dozer blade. The catch is he has to dig in before engaging enemies. Movement around the map is allowed, but he has to dig in again before reengaging.
As a self proclaimed ISU expert: 1:36, you should never aim at Panther's mantlet with this gun (122 also). Always go for the UFP unless the Panther has the high ground. Also I guess that's the closest I get to see Spookston play ISU-122S so I guess I'm content :)
That’s a good majority of Russian APHE shells. It has excellent angle pen and I thought spookston was going to shoot the UFP too but he just had to gamble with the panthers mantlet. Several games later he killed a panther by penning the side cheek of the turret at a very obtuse angle. Russian APHE shells are crazy. Lol
2:07 Makes me so happy to hear someone call out Panthers for once. People complain about the T-34's driver's hatch, meanwhile the Panther is MADE OF DRIVER'S HATCHES. The turret is absolute volumetric hell, and the UFP is impenetrable for most guns, and resistant to rounds that are supposed to go right through it (looking at you, 122mm APHEBC).
Massive skill issue, 122 goes right trough ufp IF its not angled, and mantlet is easily penetrated if you shoot in the middle where its flat. I never had problem with panthers, its a cake for american 76 and russian 85, only problem here are whiny noobs that are crying just because they cant lolpen anywhere. Meanwhile nobody is saying a word how KV1 ate 152mm ap to the mantlet.
@@Daddyofdelights you say american 76 and russian 85s are complaining that they can't lolpen anywhere when the panther's long 75 *can* lolpen the enemies it faces
The panthers only place where you cannot shoot it is the mantlet It used to be different though, a lot of shells bounced of the mantlet into the hull before volumetric shells, which is why one of the higher BR Panthers is literally just a Panther without shot trap That said Yeah its just silly. I have had too many of my own 88 mm long barrel be soaked up by machine guns. Like shooting the American Jumbo in its one frontal weakspot tends to get nullified by the machine gun This whole debacle is therefore merely a product of bad volumetric shells
@@Daddyofdelights Nah the Panther mantlet is tricky w a 76. Yeah under 600 m no problem, but past that its really up to luck because it’s essentially a pixel shot. And this is coming from someone who has nukes with the m4a3 76 and i just got one earlier in jumbo 76 at 7.0, so im pretty damn good with the 76
Judging by the way, your voice sounded this whole video, it sounded like you actually had genuine fun this time around. I’m always glad to see you having fun considering how much pain you put yourself through when making videos for us sometimes. War Thunder is a hard place to have fun sometimes.
Hey spookston, thr T-34-85 (D-5T) armor is a little busted rn. You can HE overpressure the crew if you shoot its 85mm HE towards the top of the front plate. Also works on the breech cover spanning the mantlet and turret roof.
Continuing you can Overpressure all crew with as little as german long 50mm HE. Also you can overpressure the driver and machine gunner with as little as German 37mm HEI-T from the 37mm AA (Half-track, Ostwinds, Coelian)
Gaijin should add the ISU 152-2, pretty much an overkill version of the regular ISU but with a much longer gun. If put into service, it would have been the most powerful tank gun ever fielded, around 18 million joules of energy compared to the M103s 14.5 million. Its penetration could come close to 330mm of penetration, and around 145mm of penetration at 60 degrees.
@@noorsheda1549 for me it could be 5.3, tho it could pen everything its going to plague with long reloads and shit gun depression(-3 or be possible -2)and like the isu 122 could be penned by everything at its be rating
spookston knowing about the dracula flow is incredible. the isu-152 is a different beast as long as you pen you will always kill and the mg on top to get rid of mosquitos
Funny thing about the ISU-152, the driver and the gunner are on the left side of the tank, which means if you peak around a corner only showing your gun and an enemy shoots at you, they can't stop you from firing or moving
You should check out some of the early Hungarian tanks from the Italian tree. The Zrínyi II and the Turan III in particular are pretty fun and interesting. The Turan has a crazy reverse gear, it can go nearly as fast backwards as it can forwards.
Why Italian tree? Is the German tree too cluttered? I've never heard of Hungary trying to license tank production from Italy. I guess I shouldn't complain. The L33 is hilarious to pilot. One of these days I'll even get a kill with it.
You can see pictures of what this thing did to german tanks. There's one where a panther got hit from the side with an HE shell that shattered the hull so badly that it looked like it was made of glass. I also read somewhere that in testing against a captured panther an ap round went clean through the upper front plate and blew the engine completely out of the back of the tank
The Cromwell I is a pretty fun one. OK armour for its BR but a tremendous top speed and the 6pdr gun makes for a medium tank that plays like a light (minus the scouting)
The Avenger died to the T-34 MG because the top of part its turret that looks like a little set of window blinds is actually made of canvas, so the crew can see and not overheat in North Africa. Canvas is not bulletproof 😎
I think I too have the CAS curse, every match I play there's AD-1 and Wyvern spammers. It's absolutely chocking the amount of planes 1 guy with a Wyvern spawns and theresythe Wyvern backup ☠️
This is one of my favorite tanks that I’ve ever played. The armor is decent when angled correctly, the gun punches through most things at its br and above, it even has pretty good mobility for what it is! My favorite moment in it was on a city map. I noticed a Japanese Chaffee on my rear following me, planning to blast me to oblivion. So I went ‘round a corner, turned around, and rushed him. The Chaffee panicked and bounced a round off my angled front, where I then preceded to blast him with 152mm of HE goodness.
German mains be like: “I’m gonna cry and piss my pants if t-90m gets spall liner!!!” Meanwhile: panther mantle still be bouncing things it shouldn’t 2:00
I had endless amounts of fun in the SU-152, and so I ended up really liking the ISU-152 a lot as well. I play France and Russia primarily for tank destroyers, and I'm currently at the SU-100. I can tell you this-- getting all of the modifications for the ISU was one of the best feelings ever.
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! Y O U C A N' T K E E P G E T T I N G A W A Y W I T H I T ! Eyo, don't yo dare ignoring me, I won't surrender until you play it! (Day 124)
3:50 no truer words were said. It's extremely funny how it interacts with the pocket sand move where you can punch people from range and make them explode.
Im pretty sure that random crit in the first match was from one of the planes he hit with his MG running out of oil/water and their engine started taking damage.
Originally a SPG, not a tank destroyer. It's called that because of the howitzer gun and that's what the Soviets decided to use to kill tigers because of the potential.
Gotta love how that Panther had a hole in his turret front literally twice the diameter of his own gun, and it did no damage whatsoever xD. It's not like the sheer impact alone would have jammed, like, everything in the turret...
I am not sure if anyone commented it, but the random crit you got came from the plane you shot earlier that just lost its engine to either not having oil or just landed on the belly
I wonder if War Thunder will ever get more elaborate damage models. Like when you shot the Panther's mantlet, even if it didn't penetrate, the sheer physical weight and force could either rip the turret off or at least break the systems that provide turret rotation. There are plenty of historical pictures of 152 mm HE/AP bouncing and still cracking/shattering armour on German tanks.

the Avenger is technically an open-top turret, its turret is similar to the M36B2. that ring around the top is just fabric like on the ASU-57
2:49 the jumbo begs to differ
