Well, speaking of first love, today I unlocked the Chi-To (4.7 medium tank) and it is instantly in my heart. It does everything that I loved in the Chi-Nu, but better. Hell, it can penetrate " *EVERYWHERE* " the front of the T-34 which deseves the judgment from Japanese tanks. Its armor isn't the best, but 75 mm is good for most of the time
I might have not been here from the begining but i do remeber your mig15 video, like 8 years ago? So many memories and im glad iv stuck around to see your channel grow. God bless you Steve!!
Mine too dude. One of the main reasons I started playing this game was to "get a Corsair". And I have. A few. In my opinion, it's the second most beautiful aircraft ever built, second ONLY to the F-14 Tomcat. :)
He makes it look fun tbats why I installed then I just suck so hard and hate it and I hate the fact you can't really aim when flying planes using ANY thing else other than mouse aim which I hate...then I watch another phly vid and I play again
@@McRizzle23 just gotta stick with it man. There is plenty of customizability in the controls. Could, and I shudder at the thought, try using a controller as well.
@@McRizzle23 I mean if you're looking for something other than mouse aim and looking for something more realistic I'd really recommend sim mode, it's a bit daunting to start but once you've got the hang of it it's amazing.
The Corsair is a beautiful, graceful plane. I've got a radio controlled model of an F4U-4 Corsair and she is a model that has presence in the sky. The wingspan is only 1.2m (4ft) but she has grace and presence that models a lot larger struggle to acquire. She commands attention when you do a low pass over the runway. It's the gull wings that give her the presence. Given nicknames like Ensign Eliminator and Whistling Death, the early Corsairs were almost as deadly to their own pilots as they were to the enemy. After a few modifications to sort out stall characteristics, the Corsair managed to get an 11:1 KD ratio against the Japanese air forces in the Pacific theatre.
just today i was playing the f4u and was dogfighting a 109. even after getting absolutely riddled with holes i still kept flying and by the end almost made it back to base. the 109 sent a message saying "brother your plane was flying on gods will" hahaha. i love this plane
I remember when I first heard you say “like killing babies in a basket”. I cracked up so hard! I also recall commuting Sudoku being thumbnails of old videos for other games on War Thunder channels at the time. These reminisces are great. Thank you!
First love was the spitfire Mk1, the sight and sound of her coupled with that amazing high altitude capability and agility will always make her my overall favourite.
The F4U-1C is my favorite too! For different reasons though. It was my main plane when I used to play Aces High years ago. It’ll always have a place in my heart too.
19:58 - "this is a poor map design" Can confirm, it's lop-sided on which side can reach B fastest and with more cover. It often turns into a rage loss by just attacking the winning teams spawn point, at least in AB
I never really played air, Only since last year, I started researching planes from the British spitfires, to the Russian IL-2 and the amazing BF-109. But nothing has made me love flying like the F4U corsair’s. The 1C, even without bombs, is amazing at all combat
Today I was playing the Bf-109 F-4 and had killed two jets at BR 7.0, I had fallen in love with that plane so well especially with the 15mm gunpods. I would love to see a video on the 109 F-4
Maybe it's just a chaffee thing, since I hated the chaffee at first too, like it's not that fast, quite tall and the gun is very low velocity. Once it's upgraded though it's very manoeuvrable (amazing reverse gears) and the M61 is so strong, the stabiliser is also a gamechanger
@@MissSyv considering that it's the only light tank until the bulldog at 6.0, not much of a choice lmao. Still, it's a useful tank at that br. It's biggest drawback is just how slow it reloads for a 75mm, almost 8.5 seconds stock, and 6.5 with ace crew. Without using GE, your reload is par with panthers, versus the jumbo stock of 6.5, the equivalent aced panther.
I like to use Air Targets belt on tanks on those 20mill, it doesnt kill but it just blacks out everything on tigers and panthers, takes one or two crew members as well
Hey Phly that last map you were on, i just recently found a way to break it. you gotta use a floaty boi, and do sneaky floaty boi tactics. swim across the widest part of the harbor, at the edge of the map, to the enemy's side of the harbor. nobody ever looks that way cuz why would they expect anyone there. the battle is in the opposite direction. so, you can swim across to the other side and just get beautiful side shots all day. especially when you spawn on the south side, cuz there's a little bridge across the river that the north team has to take, so they gotta slow down to turn and line up with the bridge, and even if you miss your chance on the bridge, they might stay along the road on the coast which is all just begging for free side shots. i did this with the chinese lvt zis2. it worked beautifully until an enemy following close behind another enemy saw where my shot came from and got me, but i got some nice free kills until then. pro tip, don't try to shoot while you're in the middle of the harbor where the water is rough. it's way too bouncy to get a shot and you'll just blow your cover. you gotta swim across to the calmer water on the enemy's side, pretty much up against the beach at the very least before you start taking shots. even though it's super tempting, you just gotta be patient. you can however mark the map for your team while you're busy swimming, cuz it does take a bit of time to cross. not a crazy amount of time, but enough that you'll see enough enemies go over that bridge and along the coast that'll just make you drool, but don't worry, you'll have plenty of opportunity to get respawners or super slow cautious tanks that finally decide to push out of their side of the map. and when you think there won't be any more spawners, there's a convenient little path up through the wall on the beach in front of you that you can eventually sneak up completely behind the enemy where they'd have no reason to ever believe someone would be cuz, again, nobody would ever be there, unless you're a rare sneaky floaty boi. the hardest part about this whole tactic is that you gotta very quickly get into the water cuz players do usually look at each other's coasts, so you gotta hurry and get past the area general direction they'll be looking at, but don't worry, that's mostly further up the coast, away from where you're jumping into the water at, which is against the edge of the map. i just get a good run up along the road, and use the retaining wall as a ramp and yeet myself into the water. the next scary part is that an enemy plane might see your white water trail as you swim, but they're usually focusing on the field where the caps are cuz it's easier to spot tanks there, meaning that even the planes will usually be looking far enough away from where you're at. but if you're extra scared, you could just stop for a bit until they die or rearm. (also for extra stealth, you could put a blueish camo or blue decals on whichever floaty boi you wanna go with. Day 1 of suggesting this fun sneaky floaty boi tactic
I love the chaffee. I can start with it and go the whole match holding down a flank in the forest. Spot enemies and take opportunity shots. No one flanks my team.
Oh yeah I used to love the Corsairs Hellcat and B17 back in the CBT when doorgunners where actually shooting on enemys in Air AB. Not like today with only blind crew members that cant see a target that is 201m behind your plane. Back in the days when there was only Rank 1-10 and not 2.3 2.7.... (that made me quit playing WT for almost 3 years) I still remember the days when there wasnt even a Matchmaking system, when i flew my Buffalo against mig 15 and stuff =8-) Even today i like to fly the Corsairs, they also have a pretty good bombload. Good to see there is still someone who remembers the good ol days! :) BACK IN THE ANCIENT DAYS WHEN IT WAS KNOWN AS "World of Planes"!
@PhlyDaily, the m24 at 3.7 is godly when up tiered to 5.3… I used it to cheek shot so many t-34 85 tanks and manage to kill them with it. Definitely worth a try for skilled players that want a challenge. You can only weak spot most tanks in it.
I absolutely love this plane and I’m coming back to war thunder this weekend after losing my pc back in 2014. Been too long but I’m looking forward to flying again. I’ll definitely be going for this plane.
Hey Phly! You should check out the Italian C13 T90! It was the vehicle that got me my phirst nuke, and I’d like to see it and the ABUL/74 (specifically the 90mm) on the channel! The combo means in any terrain you can get to a sneaky spot, and scout phor tons of SP! (Day 62) (But play the Hawk III first)
try the p51 mustang with the hispanos at br 3.7 or 3.3 i believe, absolute monster in air rb, especially if you go high altitude after bombers when match starts
3.3, it's a pretty decent clubber but I wouldn't call it a monster, the climbrate is average which can and will hold you back, and the acceleration isn't brilliant. Similar story with the F4U-1C, nice clubber, but not super competitive. A better example of a "monster" would be the F4U-1A, it sits at 2.7, has 6 12.7's, decent climb, crazy top speed in a dive, and decent maneuverability. At it's BR and if played correct, it's untouchable.
I used to do ridiculous boom and zooms with the early models of the f4u. One of them was so epic (three kills with a single dive to climb bounce), I was going to submit it to thundershow... But then the game updated before I could get around to converting to video lol.
Very nice video. I really wish you will take this F4U in arcade or realistic air battles in the near future and show us your skills in your ,,first love". Cuz ground RB is not the best for this plane.
I am sooo glad I spent the time to unlock the AU-1 which is basically an F4U-1C but with alot of bombs and abit of underside armor, I have managed to outsmart spitfires in that thing and generally get a ton of kills per spawn my best k/d for sure.
Back in the day before Scouting was introduced, the Chaffee wasn't that useful as it would just die in one hit to a KV85. Things have gotten better since though!
You probably hated the M24 because it used to suck pretty badly. It had horrible mobility and a crappy gun and there was no scouting ability... Now the Chaffee moves around quite nicely and the gun actually has some punch.
My fav prop in the world. You should do one more Corsair vid with the f4u-4 which is just the 1c with 50’s an a stronger engine, or you play the f2g, the peak of the Corsair series(excluding the A7)
Hey Phly, what ammo types do you look for on small, medium, and large caliber guns on planes? 7.62-12.7mm 15-25mm, 30mm+? Personally loving API(c) for anything below 15mm, 20mm and up I love HEFI and APC mixes. What's your input?
Obviously, I'm not Phly, but for Air RB I always go for belts that have loads of incendiary rounds, such as AP-I, HEI, HEF-I, IAI, etc. I'd personally avoid belts with loads of tracers (if you're like me and you want people to have less of an incentive to dodge a headon) I'd also use stealth on guns that run out of ammo before other guns of a different calibre (e.g. stealth belts for the MG 151 on Bf 109's because the 20 mm always runs out first)
🚒🚒🚒When the corsair was used for dive bombing they had no air breaks, but the landing gear was so heavily built for carrier landings they used them as air breaks. I wonder if it is modeled in the game??🚒🚒🚒
i wonder if the whistling death had a baby with a MIG 9s power plant and minimal design changes only for the whistling death to be able to go mig 9s speed
She is one of my loves too only I met her not in War Thunder but in a game called ACES HIGH, she's a really nice aircraft a little heavy and the guns shift her downwards when firing but is nice. Shame Gaijin f'd her br. up though.
Hey phly I’ve just been playing random vehicles in random lineups and one vehicle I personally have had a fun time with and nobody plays is the MARS15, it’s an 8.0 interesting light French tank. I just think you should give it a shot :)
i recently commission built a model kit of one of these, i used the warthunder model as a reference, its not absolutely correct but it just looks fantastic.
Back in the good old days when the most complicated keybind you needed for War Thunder was for the air brake.
And the brackets for flaps, good ol days. Remember being able to fight jets in random battles at like 4.0 and above

A better example of a "monster" would be the F4U-1A, it sits at 2.7, has 6 12.7's, decent climb, crazy top speed in a dive, and decent maneuverability. At it's BR and if played correct, it's untouchable.
My favorite Corsair! Although I was expecting for this to be an Air RB video. Guess I'll have to wait longer.
F4U-1C is one of my favorite sim planes to fly! Awesome to see you flying my favorite! Keep up the awesome videos Phly!
Damn looking back at the videos you made 7 to 8 years ago....time is crazy
I used to do ridiculous boom and zooms with the early models of the f4u. One of them was so epic (three kills with a single dive to climb bounce), I was going to submit it to thundershow... But then the game updated before I could get around to converting to video lol.
Ya this plane is still high on my leader boards from all the time I put in, in the past
The best thing with 20mms is when you ammorack a SPAA or even better a Pz IV with full ammo
Very nice video. I really wish you will take this F4U in arcade or realistic air battles in the near future and show us your skills in your ,,first love". Cuz ground RB is not the best for this plane.
I am sooo glad I spent the time to unlock the AU-1 which is basically an F4U-1C but with alot of bombs and abit of underside armor, I have managed to outsmart spitfires in that thing and generally get a ton of kills per spawn my best k/d for sure.
“Makes you want to commit sudoku” 🤣
When he played that clip, I honestly thought I was going to hear MightyJingles voice back when his channel was called BohemianEagle lol
Back in the day before Scouting was introduced, the Chaffee wasn't that useful as it would just die in one hit to a KV85. Things have gotten better since though!
You probably hated the M24 because it used to suck pretty badly.
It had horrible mobility and a crappy gun and there was no scouting ability...
Now the Chaffee moves around quite nicely and the gun actually has some punch.
Phly hispanos got buff now they pen 36mm Beaufigter with 4x20mm at 3.0 is a blast now
Fly out the Me-262 A-1/A Jabo (the 262 with the bombs at 7.0) and pair it up with the either the King Tiger or the Leopard 1
The Corsair was nicknamed "The Whistling Death"....
Know why?
Because it didn't know the words...
I'll see myself out.
My fav prop in the world.
You should do one more Corsair vid with the f4u-4 which is just the 1c with 50’s an a stronger engine, or you play the f2g, the peak of the Corsair series(excluding the A7)
13:30 AY BRO WATCH YOUR JET, WATCH YOUR JRT BRO WATCH YOUR JE…
The beginning was a nice flashback😂
And yes, that's the I-16 with wing 20mms (and a pair of nose 7.62 MG's).
Hey Phly, what ammo types do you look for on small, medium, and large caliber guns on planes? 7.62-12.7mm 15-25mm, 30mm+?
Personally loving API(c) for anything below 15mm, 20mm and up I love HEFI and APC mixes. What's your input?
Obviously, I'm not Phly, but for Air RB I always go for belts that have loads of incendiary rounds, such as AP-I, HEI, HEF-I, IAI, etc.
I'd personally avoid belts with loads of tracers (if you're like me and you want people to have less of an incentive to dodge a headon)
I'd also use stealth on guns that run out of ammo before other guns of a different calibre (e.g. stealth belts for the MG 151 on Bf 109's because the 20 mm always runs out first)
Also, cool story, I got to be in a Corsair two years ago
🚒🚒🚒When the corsair was used for dive bombing they had no air breaks, but the landing gear was so heavily built for carrier landings they used them as air breaks. I wonder if it is modeled in the game??🚒🚒🚒
Remember back in 1.33 this shit outclimbs anything
Can you play with the A-36 with gun pods. The gun pods allow the plane to shred anything in its path
Love the energy the last couple videos, love to see the goofy phly
Gaijin's gotta move the Chaffee back up to rank 3. It makes no sense having 2 light tanks in rank 2 and none in rank 3
That is the I16 with 20 mils. Its an absolute menace
What a beautiful plane. Would be my favourite prop if the C202 didn't steal the crown
Ahhh the sweet sound of whistling death
i wonder if the whistling death had a baby with a MIG 9s power plant and minimal design changes only for the whistling death to be able to go mig 9s speed
Play the Su6, two 37mm and around 500kph with armour, a beast
That laugh in the intro, I love it
I love the old intro and now its back
Honestly I feel like a 20 minute Raid: Shadow Legends advertisement would be more entertaining
10 years watching Phlydaily!!!!
She is one of my loves too only I met her not in War Thunder but in a game called ACES HIGH, she's a really nice aircraft a little heavy and the guns shift her downwards when firing but is nice. Shame Gaijin f'd her br. up though.
Hey phly I’ve just been playing random vehicles in random lineups and one vehicle I personally have had a fun time with and nobody plays is the MARS15, it’s an 8.0 interesting light French tank. I just think you should give it a shot :)
Love the Corsair’s, my fav plane in war thunder tbh. If only the 1C variant could hold bombs thoo🙏
i recently commission built a model kit of one of these, i used the warthunder model as a reference, its not absolutely correct but it just looks fantastic.
THE INTRO MUSIC MADE ME SO EMOTIONAL
Damn this is really a throwback episode
Creampie was the LAST word I expected to ever hear on this channel.
efter all denna tid blir det ännu bättre, fortsätt så bra vän!
