3:50 the reason some shells shrapnel bad is because when the penetration is at its limit (you penettate just enough for the shell go through) the game spawns less damaging shrapnel to accommodate for the slower flying shrapnel as the shell has been slowed enough by the armor. Medium thickness armor is the best spalling armor. Low thickness doesn't on the other hand generate enough of the damaging shrapnel
@stipsvini148 have I said anything about caliber? No. I said edge of penetration. Whatever your penetration is, the top 15% of armor penetrated is propably the limit
@@wobblewarfare4494 According to my sources the armor scheme is accurate currently, but feel free to point out anything you feel is wrong and we can look into it.
@LeGrandSarrazin saw another comment saying te side armour is 50mm and modelled as 30mm and the turret is modelled as 110mm but is meant to be 120mm, not certain if this is completely true as it's a comment
France was my main For awhile and the ARL was definitely the most fun tank to play. I never worried about being uptier because the pen is actually decent. The armor is Questionable though.
the armor is there not to tank, but to cover your retreat. At that it is decent. More armor than all the brits, soviets and Americans combined at that BR.
The gun isn't that out of the ordinary considering that the Sturer Emil and Nashorn exist. The fact that it comes coupled with a turret and roof armour and decent hull armour, that is what sets this truly apart.
I always like videos of the creators I personally enjoy, just because regardless if the video is actually good or just meh I still want to support them
18:38…exact sound of the shells flying by on the movie Fury 🤣 They definitely added some beautiful sound effects recently now if they’ll just give us back the unique cannon sounds rather than EVERY damn cannon sounding exactly the same.
1) watched almost all your videos 2) love almost all yours videos 3) you are so good 4) stop being hysterical 5) stop trying to be friend with enemies 6) shoot earlier and don't wait that one second that kill you
Not saying that the phly isn't still the best WT player out there...but I miss the everybody intros. Been watching off and on for almost 7 years and playing war thunder for similar time. That everybody intro was the life blood of my high-school and early college career. From the bottom of my heart phly, thank you and please bring back the iconic intro.
The throwback to FlyDaily of early days was amusing; could FlyDaily of that day even imagine the FlyDaddy of today? Loved watching those Tigers go BOOM!
12:55 Unfortunately Gaijin got it backwards with armor spalling. From last I heard, they run some amount of spalling with rounds based on how much "penetration" is left after a round goes through an armor plate, but they made it so that lower numbers makes for lower spalling, even though the reverse is true IRL
i'm a big fan of French hybrid tanks that took several american chassi's and added their own flair, like the AMX Chaffee, the AMX M4 like you've put, and even others i've forgotten the names of.
Sadly the ARL 44 is prone to strafing because 30mm sides and 10mm roof. The gun was great even with only 205 pen. And hopefully gaijin will not nerf the hell out of the french techtree again as it can be argued that many midtier french vehicles are at a too high battle rating for what they are capable of. But the french do have the appeal of vehicles, which (in the right hands) just dominate the battlefield. Hopefully gaijin will not change the battle rating simply because the gun performs better now.
i'm a big fan of french tank hybrids (the ones where they took other countries' tanks when some part was obsolute) then slapped something of theirs in; namely like the AMX Chaffee.
@@CallofDutyBlackOps28 Well, the french did reuse basically anything they could find, even if only a heat slinger would fit (majority of comminuty proposals at least). Sadly either the vehicles are not ingame or in the israel techtree... (exept for the amx chaffee, the french actually do have that one)
another thing to note with the arl 44's gun is that it sends a fast round. I think almost as fast as the long 88 of the king tigers. the turret armor is...weird at point blank range. I've fought t 34 85's at point blank range and somehow the turret shrugs off the round(maybe they hit the curves).
Good to know Phly also shoots Tiger driver ports while knowing its a bad idea. I can't count how many times that has gotten me killed when it should have been an easy shot.
The armor layout on the ARL-44 still wrong, but at least the gun is better now... it really lives up to the french tiger title. (What's wrong?) The armor on the turret side should be 50mm (it's 30mm in-game) and the front turret should be 120mm (not 110mm) ARL-44's were based on the B1's, so yes, they *are* supposed to have a lot of armor.
@@Gustav_Kuriga No no, hull and turret front are supposed to have the same thickness. I feel like they know, and this is just another tank suffering from gaijin stupid "balancing" system...
I'm a new player to War Thunder, and I've unlocked this tank the ARL-44 and I was playing uptiered matches with my friend at 7.3 and it didn't even bat an eye.
*Begin Transmission* Day 78. The ARL 44. The Tank that was first produced in the late 1940s, but was still partially designed off of the Char B1 Bis, which began in the mid-1920s. King Tiger-esque, I think not. But it does indeed have that powerful 90mm gun. Just not as powerful in a prolonged engagement as the 90mm T15E1 on the T26E4 Super Pershing. *End Transmission*
I’m digging the Phly Phitness plan. All these push-ups will give me a head start so I don’t have to worry about the Phreshman Phifteen when i go off to my phirst year of college.
For me that was the original 6.7 Lorraine 40t. Id use that and my friend would rock the T-29 and we would bully the piss out of Germany and Russia. We always joke that we were the reason they increased the br and rep cost so astronomically
5.3 France is one of the best lineups at that rating. Jumbo, ARL-44, can bring along the M4A1 premium and M4A4 SA50, and even the overtired EBR is still useful on a flank.
@@samadams2203 A sherman 75 has more punch than a puma. Considering the AMX FL11 is 4.0, is better than the puma. An EBR has much more speed and flanking ability, and thats why its so high
@@Gracefulwarrior2124 I will take Puma over EBR every day, it has better survivability, better speed and the gun is higher velocity. Oh, and it's 3.3 not 5.3. American 75 at 5.3 is extremely bad.
Day 1: Play with good ol’ Germany Me 410 A-1/U4 it’s the older brother of the Me 262 A-1/U4 and it’s a 4.0/4.3 aircraft with 50mm barrel on it with 12.7mm it’s a very good vehicle to play on and dominate the tanks you can play it on 5.7 but whatever you like and I wish to see you play it ❤

Now, just imagine if the ammo was modelled correctly and the reload rate was historically accurate..

at 5.3 its gonna be very difficult to find a gun with such high pen. especially on a turreted platform
Anyone else that always like the vid before watching it because its always gonna be good?
Yea always
I did that before the vid even loded
Yell Heah, brother!😊
Yes always
I always like videos of the creators I personally enjoy, just because regardless if the video is actually good or just meh I still want to support them
Watching on my lunch break, I get to play vicariously through you at least 😅
Fun fact: the ARL-44's turret was made with salvaged plates from the Dunkerque
Yeah that's badass I think

8:27 is that from iconic Vanoss Group moment? Great job Phly and Editor!
as a french main and a lover of the arl-44...
this does put a smile on my face
13:02
That's exactly the conversation the french had as WWII started xD
This thing is like if a tiger 2p was a whole BR lower and lacked filler with a worse reload but even better mobility.
Now both ARLs just need their historical reload time of ~5.5s and they would be purfect !
But gajin hates france
Then gaijin would send it to 7.0 because its not german or russian

Well, now some of the french planes are now a whole rank lower, and now it has a bunch of new spaas, that were lacking a lot a few months ago
another thing to note with the arl 44's gun is that it sends a fast round. I think almost as fast as the long 88 of the king tigers.
the turret armor is...weird at point blank range. I've fought t 34 85's at point blank range and somehow the turret shrugs off the round(maybe they hit the curves).
yeah the speed of the shell is the same
The turret is funni. If u hit flat it will obviously pen, but u just need to shoot a bit to the breech side or the edge side and ur shot is eaten
Its exactly 1000m/s. Every post war french tanks shell flys at 1000m/s. Which is the same speed as the long 88.
I started playing the French tree specifically to play the ARL-44. Love that thing.
