I like how Gaijin still makes the connection with the past teasers, that is in relation to Sergey, something unique and interesting. Hope the story of Rook 1 and Rook 2 will continue.
As someone who has called in ordnance from an F16 in real life and got chills, that F16 intro almost matched that feeling. Holy hell Gaijin, give your editors a bonus because this trailer was NUTS.
@tanker 129994 I'm American lol. US Army. I was a forward observer (13F) with a JFO tag. JFO's are essentially trained to request CAS, CCA and naval ordnance. I was on a deployment to Afghanistan in 2018, and we had a building with vics outside. Called it in and were told there was a flight of 2x F16's about 10 minutes away. They came on station and we lased the target using an LLDR and giving a visual walk on. We dropped a 500lb laser guided munition (JDAM) on the building and destroyed the target. We were about 1.5km away from the target, but the Shockwave hit us very quick and felt similar to the thunder shock after a very close lightning strike. Made all the hairs on my body stand up.
Because there's a story in the trailer on the one hand and a daily grind with the same tasks without any plot in the game on the other. Need a story in the game.
I'm afraid Sergei might be an actual person from dev team. I've already heard of IT Devs sent to the frontline with everyone else as mobiks, some definitely were lost there
Even tho this trailer is 9 months old, this is still the best trailer IMO. edit: a year and 11 months later and I still think this is the best trailer. It just has more hype IMO.
its only been 1 year@@Hymid3782 and anyway this was for the december patch which is the biggest update of the year, we are about to get the next december patch and i bet it tops this trailer.
@@gz_insurgent1767 Just watched it, It's a good trailer but this one just gets me more hyped than the Air Superiority one. I wanna say it's the music and combat shots in Apex Predator that makes me get more hyped. Air Superiority is good, especially with some of the more cinematic shots they're putting in it, but that's the thing, it's more cinematic than action to me. Yes there is some action in it, but Apex Predator just hits harder IMO. But yeah, I agree, they're both great trailers.
Dude its not lore? Just catering to Russian mains nothing more. Always gotta be gaining speshul widdle favorites. Like the f16 missing the Su22 with an aim9, its there to let them know they have nothing to worry about; even with the Falcon and Tornado, other nations still won't be able to compete, its symbolic for a reason.
@@BugattiONE666 I have primarily played NATO for 1500 hours. The majority being US, Russia has never been an issue for me. I wont argue the same in regards to tanks though
@@BugattiONE666 what are you saying? Gaijin has always added something good for one country and then later for another country. That’s how they go about adding new vehicles
IKR? the way they teased the F-16 felt like a nod to the DCS video of "2019 and beyond" (I think that's the one) when they teased the F-16 in a silhouette.
This reminds me when you guys used to make those high budget Trailers that could be both pre render animation and live action. Hope we get to see more of those someday :)
Just wait until it turns out like world of warships. Back then they made equally beautiful trailers, now that they cater to accute master baiters (anime fans) they are no longer willing to make anymore good trailers.
I started playing this game 2012, maybe before and I started because I felt one day they would add things like the Apache, Abrams, F-14, Su-25, F-16, A-10. These iconic vehicles. Even features like thermal optics, ATGM’s, night vision (ground & air). 10+ years later everything I wanted is here/coming. Praise the Snail.
@@senseishu937 man I only reached top tier I think at the start of this year or last year. I’ve never had premium. Only time is when I bought a German tank destroyer, Panzer IV/70(v) or (a). I don’t remember 😂 I also play a lot of the nations, never really focused on just one. But yeah man the grind is REAAAAAAL
The music, the model, the way they did it all is probly the best introduction to an aircraft ive ever seen warthunder do at the 2:00 mark. i cannot speak any higher of how well that was done. great trailer overall as well.
I love that there’s no point of trying to reach top tier anymore, I’m never going to get to that point, but now that that’s aside 2:00 I’m literally speechless give the editor a raise like def this is too good he did a phenomenal job
I really don’t get that kind of thinking, I was able to grind to the f14 in about 1 month with no premium and 3-4 hours of playtime a day, it’s pretty easy when you know how to play I guess but still.
@@Frostyboy2016 3-4 hours a day for a month is absolutely insane for most people, that's a part time job And that's just for ONE tech tree I can only imagine what I could accomplish if I spend a quarter of that time on something else
@@Frostyboy2016 How do people do that, I play since 2013, I have 1300h on steam, playtime before steam not counted in and I havn't reached rank 6 on any nation yet. I started to rank up swedish Tanks about 2 months ago and just reached Tier 4 now. The Grind is awful and because of the expensive repair costs I almost make no SL in higher Tiers even tho I cap points and destroy 2-3 tanks average on each match.
This trailer was really nice and all but I gotta slightly disagree as I feel like "Wish me luck" trailer for Drone age was better but that's only in my opinion
Gaijin really knows how to make us excited for every new update, even though it's hard sometimes to keep playing, I think we can all agree that Gaijin did an amazing job once again.
As much as the game gets boring after a few days or weeks of playing, the trailers always brings be back for a short while. Until I get stuck in the infinite grind and realise I'll never get those vehicles and play another game. A less expensive and grindy one.
I absolutely adore the characterization in this video. The Tornado and MiG are depicted with a very conventional noble "gentlemen's war" kind of vibe, with mutual respect between both parties and a fundamental love for the skies. They could be Ace Combat protagonists- two pilots on the opposite side of a war, chivalrous duelists in an era where knights no longer exist. The F-16 though... it's depicted as inhuman. A threat, an apex predator as the title suggests, more of a force of nature than a vehicle driven by a human pilot. You get the sense that if you saw a Tornado or MiG coming you should prepare for fierce combat. You see an F-16 coming- you _run._
I like the dialogue from the three airmen at the beginning. Regardless of where a pilot comes from or their profession, the love of flying is universal…
WT's having a great opportunity here. Not only that they can hype the players in the game, but with the stories and lore hiding within the trailers. It would be a great detail to attract not just those who play the game, but those who took interest on this genre.
The only time this community ever truly comes together in celebration for this game is whenever a new teaser drops. They're always flawless and get you pumped to plug in another 200 hours to unlock a single fighter plane.
And for once, theres noone that gets left out on getting new toys as basically all nations can get either F-16s, MiG-29s or Tornados. Some even a combination of them.
I just keep coming back to this teaser. It is an absolute A-grade video and everything an update teaser should be. Sure, they had good help in the patch featuring such epic aircraft, but the video is simply amazing. A good story, well told. The first look/presentation of the F-16 still gives me the shivers and I'm more of an F-15-guy, that sure says something.

@@kalesauce9529 yh they have their antics and business moves but for the love of the game and creation the makers of this trailer have done an amazing job
@@triifid1327 I don't care so much about the trailer, that's not why I started it 7 years ago. but because it is a thousand times better than any "world of" rubbish out there, the love of detail with the vehicles, the possibility of having everything on one battlefield.
That doesn't matter there are fourth gen aircraft in war thunder simple and what do you care f16 you smaller countries get are nerfed they have nothing special in them
The red lighting effect has been the coolest thing I've ever seen on a war thunder update trailer. As well as the music and dramatic affect. Hands down my favorite update trailer ever. I would someone would make it a repeating gif.
This is the best trailer we have ever gotten! The jet sounds mixed with the perfect music choice was just ear candy. That camo of the last trailer was mwah perfect. Amazing work Gaijin, we are so hype to grind!
What do you mean? You dont want me to ignore you helping the other fighter being chased by 6 players? You dont want me to go chases the bomber 15km out? WHY CANT YOU JUST LET ME PLAY HOW I WANT!!!! /s
sometimes i wish they would just add voice chat comms. but i also know that with it, comes even more problems. toxicity probably being the least of our concern.
@@harbour2118when this one aired. No one expected the f-16, we knew the 29 was coming but everyone was expecting the f-16 in the next patch. Therefore this one is more awesome in terms of reveals
For the first two minutes I was getting progressively worried that there wouldn't be the F-16. Absolutely epic trailer Gaijin, best one so far, honestly.
Nothing else for me to say besides what a great teaser. It really got the hype up and that the people who worked on it deserve a prize for such a beautiful work.
F-16A Block 10 with no BVR missiles, limited countermeasures, and only the IDS model of the Tornado. Meanwhile, Russia gets R-27's, R-73's, and all that on a blatantly overpowered platform with far, far better flight performance than anything in the game...
Well, IDS Tornados are pretty much Dead on arrival with F-16s and MIG-29s coming in the same Update. The German Air Tree is getting shafted pretty hard. Oh, and RIP Italy for getting a F-104 as Premium
@@lazylime8046 a Mig 29 have flight performance similar to a Mirage 2000 in terme of one circle fighter (2000 is a little better), ans F16 is a good competitor in two circle if the pilote is not too Bad ..
Really love the way the Migs turned above the mountains, reminded me of Top Gun If Top Gun made me love the F-18, then this teaser made me love the F-16 Also R.I.P Sergey, I like the idea that these trailers have little stories in them
In the subtitles there was a bit that said and this is a direct quote no edits: (Sergey Lives!) But as i am writing this it may be the paint on the aircraft.
I still remember playing the F2 years ago, how long it has come to see now the F16 in the game, still hoping for Gaijin to add a mode where its just plane combat with no missiles so we can fight with plane performance rather than missile spam.
A huge issue is that BVR combat, is a huge aspect of modern western planes, to the point that their dogfighting capability suffers for it. If you remove that, then western planes are going to be unviable, which will lead to more russian bias. Not saying you're wrong for wanting a pure dogfight gamemode, but it's hopefully not going to happen.
@@adamtelek294 Bruh, not at all. The very F-16 you see here is the perfect example of a US aircraft that can viably engage in raid fights against Russian aircraft. Pure dogfight modes exist in DCS, and aircraft like the F-18 and F-16 not only work fine, but are in fact fan favorites for those kinds of matches. You are just simply wrong here.
@@adamtelek294 modern times? sure. but 4th gen are still built with BFM in mind. look at the F16, the F18 is a good example too, though it's less maneuverable it will still hold its own and can bring that nose around. 5th gen western on the other hand... that's another story
I hope they will keep up working with reality. I don’t care if they add more BVR systems like a AIM-120 or a Meteor (though this will take muuuuuch time to be added)
@@warc9470 6 Aim 9 L's on a F16 with a vulcan is positively terrifying. Considering its going to fight side by side with the Missile truck that is the F4's and F14's
@@warc9470 With how much the 9L's flare resistance is currently overperforming in game, the F16 with 6x 9L would be absolute cancer to face, especially in the Mig-29 considering that thing's engines run at 1400°C, so another 200°C hotter than the F14, which basically already cannot flare a rear aspect Aim-9L.

I saw this trailer when it first came out and everytime I see it again, it's like it's the first time over. Absolutely beutiful trailer. Great job, yall never fail to impress.
@@hercz223 thats how games are getting worse and worse like with battle passes on any game they copy other games ik they gotta make money but stuff is so expensive it is a joke
I really hope they make references to Ace Combat whenever they release the F-15 and Su-30s, whichever they add. F-15 zipping through thunder clouds, lightning illuminating the jet and the blue wingtips, and a wingman with a single red wingtip
At this point I like trailers more than actual updates

@@triifid1327 I don't care so much about the trailer, that's not why I started it 7 years ago. but because it is a thousand times better than any "world of" rubbish out there, the love of detail with the vehicles, the possibility of having everything on one battlefield.
@@kalesauce9529 those are tech tree not premiums. Even then, nobody's forcing you to buy a premium so let those who want to purchase them.
As always Gaijin nails it with the trailer! Nice work, looking forward to additional 4th gen aircraft.
4th gen is already in warthunder lmao 🤣
@@jagerblitze8288 Yes, but most countries do not have a 4th gen aircraft.
That doesn't matter there are fourth gen aircraft in war thunder simple and what do you care f16 you smaller countries get are nerfed they have nothing special in them
you say as always most trailers are really bad this is just one that nailed it
Jager Blitze lol he said ADDITIONAL meaning there already are some . LMAO
The red lighting effect has been the coolest thing I've ever seen on a war thunder update trailer. As well as the music and dramatic affect. Hands down my favorite update trailer ever. I would someone would make it a repeating gif.
What an amazing way to introduce 3 of the most anticipated vehicles in a single video.
Amazing music, editing, cinematography and story

I love how they connected the story from last teaser. These teasers are just so beautiful to watch 🥹

Not a surprise, wonderful as always .. well done, very excited to try the new birds. 😍😎✌
Wow hunter here I was telling u about mig-29 and F-16 and here it is now we can play Gulf war 1991 perfectly
Can`t wait to see you playing these amazing vehicles!
I want to see you in that f-16 hunter 🤙🏼
Can't wait for your video on CAS with those new war machine.
Ayyu yo hunter. Great stuff 😈😈
Everything about this trailer hits just right. That F-16 reveal with the lights and music timing gives me literal goose bumps. Absolutely amazing job.
I'm not ashamed to admit that this hit me in the feels and gave me chills.
These are one of them “cum in your pants” trailers.
as per usual, (not even a surprise by now)
bloody brilliant trailer you never fail to impress with these I can't wait any longer
2:01 absolutely amazing
Best part of the teaser 👌
I totally agree, will be waiting for another BRUUUHH
Hello
MALZZZZIIII
I freaking love how much passion they put on this trailers
Hola ajaja!
This is the best trailer we have ever gotten! The jet sounds mixed with the perfect music choice was just ear candy. That camo of the last trailer was mwah perfect. Amazing work Gaijin, we are so hype to grind!
I'm so disappointed that they didn't play "Top Gun Anthem (The Intro) - 2016 Composers Cut" by Harold Faltermeyer with the trailer.
@@nuhuh9893 bro, they don't even know what song that is, let alone where it comes from. (even tho you stated the name right there)
I wish my teammates were this coordinated.
What do you mean? You dont want me to ignore you helping the other fighter being chased by 6 players? You dont want me to go chases the bomber 15km out? WHY CANT YOU JUST LET ME PLAY HOW I WANT!!!! /s
sometimes i wish they would just add voice chat comms. but i also know that with it, comes even more problems. toxicity probably being the least of our concern.
Usually if I try to fly in formation people get nervous and hit the ground or try to do a flip, usually leading to the casualty of another teammate.
Just find a good squad you can trust and use Discord VC to coordinate. After that just be better.
@District Lulless make connections and "get gud", I assume this is advice your parents told you growing up?
Everything about this trailer is a work of art

Kurwa raczej, nie inaczej
@@Starwerek exactly my polish frind! Ja pierdole
Came back from the f-15 su27 trailer, this is still the best, still gave me goosebumps
Hell no it’s not,f15 su27 update trailer is the hardest to date
Both are amazing, just for the tone of their music, apex predators sounds aggressive and hard, while air superiority sounds more grand and uplifting
@@harbour2118when this one aired. No one expected the f-16, we knew the 29 was coming but everyone was expecting the f-16 in the next patch. Therefore this one is more awesome in terms of reveals
For the first two minutes I was getting progressively worried that there wouldn't be the F-16. Absolutely epic trailer Gaijin, best one so far, honestly.
F-16 is literally on the thumbnail
@@mmmn8979 didn't see it at first. Were hyped so just clicked on it
@@hmsvanguard2918 Yeah lmao
imo we didn’t really need the F-16 but thats just me
@@lukigensfm the MiG 29 is by far the best aircraft for rn so idk I think it’s necessary
Well done! Really nice trailer, very excited!
I didn’t think you would be, I thought you didn’t like missile meta.
Excited to get rekt by mig 29
I hope they give J-7E PL-8s so you can never let go of it.

Nothing else for me to say besides what a great teaser.
It really got the hype up and that the people who worked on it deserve a prize for such a beautiful work.
Such an incredible reveal and video. Still comeback to it once in a while.
The game looks so much more realistic than before
Lol

@@DanySdowo ohh hell naw
Sergey's lore is so strong that it would make anyone cry 😭
He might just replace nigel
whats sergei lore lol
Fulcrum, Fighting Falcon, and Tornado in one update?! It's a dream come true!
F-16A Block 10 with no BVR missiles, limited countermeasures, and only the IDS model of the Tornado. Meanwhile, Russia gets R-27's, R-73's, and all that on a blatantly overpowered platform with far, far better flight performance than anything in the game...
@@lazylime8046 I am just glad,that they finally added the Tornado
Well, IDS Tornados are pretty much Dead on arrival with F-16s and MIG-29s coming in the same Update. The German Air Tree is getting shafted pretty hard. Oh, and RIP Italy for getting a F-104 as Premium
@@lazylime8046 a Mig 29 have flight performance similar to a Mirage 2000 in terme of one circle fighter (2000 is a little better), ans F16 is a good competitor in two circle if the pilote is not too Bad
..
and it showed a harrier, my guess is the sea harrier, wich Italy can use.
Really love the way the Migs turned above the mountains, reminded me of Top Gun
If Top Gun made me love the F-18, then this teaser made me love the F-16
Also R.I.P Sergey, I like the idea that these trailers have little stories in them
Same a little sad the sun guardians teaser had no story
Who is Sergey?
@@kuzeyburaktimur7755 watch the drone age update teaser
In the subtitles there was a bit that said and this is a direct quote no edits: (Sergey Lives!) But as i am writing this it may be the paint on the aircraft.
They actually put that su25 monument in seversk13
The tie-in to the previous teaser was perfection!
I love the lore of the Su-25 model in Seversk-13
Absolutely brilliant, the teasers and trailers never fail to impress :D
Also GIB MIG 29!!!
Aye Justin how’s it going?
Where's the foxbat
@@diesel_man99 wouldn’t be a main highlight, could come as a premium with MiG-31 being TT
Love your videos mate , keep it up!
I agree
No joke the amount of effort they put into the trailers they should make a movie as I would watch for years keep up the good work
They already make movie. It's called 28 pansevillefcev (on Russian: 28 Панцифиловцев)
After the euro fighter trailer this still hits so hard, i love it.
The trailer is magnificent as always; that f16 reveal gave me chills, absolutely brilliant.
Not only is the update badass but the editing is phenomenal
Anyone come here after the Eurofighter Storm Warning trailer😍
You know that the trailer will be good when 2WEI is in the title.
Good job! 🔥

But I’m actually hyped for this
Literal goosebumps, WarThunder really out did themselves with this new update. The homage to these warbirds is incredible.
the shot at 1:10 is completely overlooked tbh, shivers.
The moment they show the F-16 was so much better than I was expecting it literally gave me chills
i love the fact that there's some bit of lore now with those pilots love to see that detail
wow, this was just amazing, you guys will never dissapoint with the teasers
Honestly, this is by far my favourite trailer in Warthunder, just keep coming back to it.
The team producing these videos is absolutely amazing.
LET'S GO, TIME FOR SOME MORE WT.
I have to say one of the most beautiful trailers I have ever seen. Well done.
F16 intro was unbelievably well done.. gave me chills
You guys never fail to impress, nice work!
what about fire and ice
@@Raivo_Melnis what are you even trying to type
@@Raivo_Melnis it was just a filler update in preparation for this update 😂
@@Fredrick_6 what does that have anything to do with this?
@@RightWingGamerYT its called a counterargument
For every trailer they release i always come back here to see if it can surpass this masterpiece.
I still remember playing the F2 years ago, how long it has come to see now the F16 in the game, still hoping for Gaijin to add a mode where its just plane combat with no missiles so we can fight with plane performance rather than missile spam.
A huge issue is that BVR combat, is a huge aspect of modern western planes, to the point that their dogfighting capability suffers for it. If you remove that, then western planes are going to be unviable, which will lead to more russian bias.
Not saying you're wrong for wanting a pure dogfight gamemode, but it's hopefully not going to happen.
@@adamtelek294 Bruh, not at all. The very F-16 you see here is the perfect example of a US aircraft that can viably engage in raid fights against Russian aircraft.
Pure dogfight modes exist in DCS, and aircraft like the F-18 and F-16 not only work fine, but are in fact fan favorites for those kinds of matches. You are just simply wrong here.
@@adamtelek294 modern times? sure.
but 4th gen are still built with BFM in mind.
look at the F16, the F18 is a good example too, though it's less maneuverable it will still hold its own and can bring that nose around.
5th gen western on the other hand... that's another story
I hope they will keep up working with reality. I don’t care if they add more BVR systems like a AIM-120 or a Meteor (though this will take muuuuuch time to be added)
@@adamtelek294 ah yes because less game modes is better. Not like we've stuck to the same 6 for 10 years. And that's if you play arcade RB and Sim.
it's been 7 months and I'm still watching this
Wow the intro to the F-16 was amazing!
Yes, but during the teaser it is shown only with AIM-9L, Apparently, they will give the earliest model... Well, the mig-29 with FOX-1.
@@warc9470 good ol R-73s (I think)
@@warc9470 Eh, we still kinda have a long way to go before we reach the modern day planes/equipment
@@warc9470 6 Aim 9 L's on a F16 with a vulcan is positively terrifying. Considering its going to fight side by side with the Missile truck that is the F4's and F14's
@@warc9470 With how much the 9L's flare resistance is currently overperforming in game, the F16 with 6x 9L would be absolute cancer to face, especially in the Mig-29 considering that thing's engines run at 1400°C, so another 200°C hotter than the F14, which basically already cannot flare a rear aspect Aim-9L.
Who else is here after watching the f-15 update
after SU27 update
The f16 scene is still the bomb
How do you know
ngl this got topped by the trailer for the f-15 and flanker
@@darkpheonix-px3uj i agree
I thought there wouldn’t be an F-16 in the teaser….when that reveal hit instant chills!
Kinda cringey tbh
@@RaptorsFan2019You in the vast minority friend. The work that went into this trailer just for your dry input. Now that is cringe. Trailer or the reveal would certainly not qualify either way.

1:31 okay, that part is aboslutely amazing. Love that afterburner!
the ending😢
respect as we never even deserved him in the first place
The MiG-29 reveal got me locked in, then the F-16 sent chills down my spine. Another amazing trailer.
Glad that after so many years of grind and practice we have hit perfection in reveals. Actually had me giggling on the floor and I smashed the phone from excitement
The Sergei tribute at the end is woefully underrated because this trailer is that awesome, but I'm loving the WarThunder lore. Sergei lives!
Gaijin really be out here teasing the F-16 like a Sportscar
It is essentially a flying sports car but with missiles.
I saw this trailer when it first came out and everytime I see it again, it's like it's the first time over. Absolutely beutiful trailer. Great job, yall never fail to impress.
These teasers are absolutely incredible, immaculate work Gaijin Entertainment! ♥️
Its shame takes half ur life to unlock unless u pay cause devs do not give a toss about non pay to win people
@@thecrazyhound6010 its not pay to win. Might wanna look up the definition of p2w.
@@DirtL pay to progress then?
@@thecrazyhound6010 ok they're doing whatever major game corps would do to reap benefits from their games - just gotta deal with it
@@hercz223 thats how games are getting worse and worse like with battle passes on any game they copy other games ik they gotta make money but stuff is so expensive it is a joke
In fact, it wasn't the F-16 or the Mig29 that was really the Apex Predator, it was the R-27ER.
If you play SB then its the 9M. Those are much scarier there than the ER's
I really hope they make references to Ace Combat whenever they release the F-15 and Su-30s, whichever they add. F-15 zipping through thunder clouds, lightning illuminating the jet and the blue wingtips, and a wingman with a single red wingtip
how many time u watched the Trailer?
Me:Yes.
can’t wait to isolate myself from society for those jets
The F16 part of the reveal was badass 🎉❤
The red strobe lights were a great way to announce the F16 coming to the game
