Adam thanks to the tips and tricks in this vid, I've been able to win several 3v1 and 4v1 matches. Thanks for showing me the true power of German Energy Retention.
I like how Adam sets up questions like what can the p51 do so that he can show us in another vid or let war thunder know to fix it. His videos help me a lot and they are very educational on what to do in sticky situations.
AdamTheEnginerd yo I found you In game and desperately dived on you just so I could tell my friends I killed you but I messed up and overshot and I knew I was a goner...
IMO my favorite prop and the best of it's BR hands down. Also the plane I have the most kills with it truly has come a long way with the FM changes it has had plus with MEC its a dream.
Incredible to see you flying one of my most beloved planes. In 2016 I was really into grinding the Germans, and this and the Ta152 C-3 were my go to grind planes. I still love it nowadays, the airspawn makes it OP af.
I know it's a year late but finding your videos has made me a better pilot and helped me figure out how to fly planes that were a struggle for me to succeed in before. The Ta-152 is just one of those planes; before, Spitfires were preying on me, now, they are my prey. In all seriousness, thank you. Despite the BR raise and insane repair bill, I love flying this plane now.
Nice vid as always. Do you think I should be dogfighting F4U-4B's? I tried it because of the MER but the F4U's tendency to bleed more energy just allowed him to stay on my six and then his huge flaps and engine allowed him to stall after me.
Since you did video on dora and ta 152, maybe now it's time for anton's? I really want to see A5 or A4 in your hands, i'm sure it will be also helpful for new pilots who just started their adventure wih Butcher Birbs. Also, great video as always.
@@AdamTheEnginerd very interesting, the extent of my knowledge about energy retention was that in a k4 I can bait a heavier plane with a lovely spiral climb.
Quick question, how does your average RB match usually look like? It's obvious that the stuff you post on TH-cam is cherrypicked, but I'd love to know how you usually get on. Because that match, for example, would be a once-in-a-lifetime match for me. Also, do you put a lot of thought into your maneuvers and moves or do you mostly stick to your instincts?
I average over 2 kills per game, so it's a few kills per game. Indeed I show the interesting stuff/carries, but that's not necessarily always high kill games. I had a 8 kill I185 match, but it was just me killing everyone at low altitude and it was boring af so I deleted the footage. It's both. On unfamiliar planes I think more.
Belle partie :D 3:11 c'est pas passé loin mais c'était beau ! (et c'est aussi une des raisons pour laquelle j'aime la vue à la 3ème personne ^^) 4:24 question : qu'aurais-tu fais si le P-51D avait "bounce" (fait un genre de looping) pour te ré-engager sans te dépasser ? 5:18 fun fact : le P-51D-30 avec un BR 5,0 a un meilleur taux de monté et est plus rapide (vitesse max à toute altitude) que le Ta 152 H en 5,7 (pareil pour le F-82E). Le Ta 152 est globalement meilleur mais je trouve cela assez drôle. C'est peut être un "german bias" de ma part mais j'ai vraiment l'impression que les Allemands en Tier 4 sont les seuls qui peuvent avoir une chance de se faire pourrir même lorsqu'ils sont uptiers : même des avions en 5,0 (p-51D30, P-47D ou N ...) restent dangereux contre leurs meilleurs avions en 5,7. J'ai jamais eu cette impression avec d'autres nations.
Merci! 4:24 j'aurais quand même essayé de le tirer, mais je serais redescendu avant que ma vitesse dvienne trop basse et le P51 aura une autre chance pour m'attaquer. 5:18 Hmm le taux de montée a l'air très proche sur la plage de 0 à 6km, et bien sûr le Ta152H a l'avantage plus haut. Pour la vitesse, le Ta152H est sûrement plus rapide à partir de 7-8km. Ce que tu dis c'est le contraire de German bias non? Ta152H a le airspawn et tourne mieux (avec flap) que ce qu'il rencontre des US par contre.
Kisame San “outstat the Germans” Because Germany doesn’t have the most undertiered planes like the K-4, Ta 152s and the mid-tier F-4. Combined with the most overpowered 20mm in the game.
I'm going for this airplane on the tech tree, it feels good that it has the "Adam approved" sign 😂. And also I'm enjoying a lot the Fw.190 A-4. Can you make a video of this plane? It would be awesome
HI Adam! i came back after a 5 month break from WT and saw on the "top speed spreadsheet" that the La-9 has 640 km/h as sea level top speed and it used to be about the same as the La-7's, was it buffed? Also 3:11 HFOHH
God your aim is so good. Sometimes I struggle with 30mm cannons, they are so slow. Still the plane is no OP, but Gaijin still raised the repair cost. I like the plane but that repair cost keeps me away, especially when I am low on SL.
screen freezing happens a lot when you get damage on: Wyvern, Narval and I've heard A2Ds. it is especially annoying when it is just a critical hit or when you are really close to the ground
@@AdamTheEnginerd no I don't play air RB anymore lmao. I used to play a ton, not as fun as it used to be. I played when D12 was 6.3 and jets were my first kills
*_I can’t relate. Since your last video, all I have been flying is the P-61. Making German teams great again... One 264 at a time!_* Reading the comments in Napalm’s latest video. You seemed to have created a monster. There are a bunch of useless plane pilots crying about being shot down by P-61’s. It’s glorious! 🤣🤣🤣
@@florianbielawa2919 The Fw 109 A5 U2 is the best one you can get. It is awful to spade but if spaded it is awesome. If you want a 190 without shitty stock grind, either take some GE and spade your favourite or buy the D13 bundle. D13 is so fun to fly
When you master the Fw190A you can master every plane. I would say if you plan your maneuvers really good you can fight allone against an enemy fighter and the roll is good so you can make aiming very difficult especially for the fighters with wing mounted guns. The very first As are quite good after all. I played the 190A5 and A8s that much that I just can play 190As, Ta 152C and heavy fighters of the Germans, planes like the Ta 152H and 109 feel very unnatural for me and I tend to play too risky in them.
This plane has been my favorite T4 german plane for a very long time. Gaijin has messed with the FM alot over the years but the Ta always seemed to have something about it where you could always just energy fight your way out of the problem. Also, I'm not the greatest K4 pilot on earth but I always find that the Ta out-guns, out-dives, and out-turns the K4.
I love it too, I once trolled a spit just like you would have done it: turn turn turn while he is losing losing losing (energy). Most times I play the C however.
@@AdamTheEnginerd Yes, but then they dont really try anymore. Its more fun for me when I know that they think that their plane is better in everything and then wonder themself how they got into a situation they dont know from their plane and try something new but it still does not work.
Still waiting for the A2D-1 video :D Nice video though Edit: 2:12 I have the same problem although I play on ULQ , this issue appeared only after the last Update
Seeing this flap description after the P38L video, wanted to know if can you point me towards a guide so I can learn the properties of aircraft before I fly them (maybe)?
You can follow this to get the FM data files: www.reddit.com/r/Warthunder/comments/8nq70p/tutorial_how_to_datamine_or_how_i_learned_to_stop/ You need some knowledge to know what the coefficients mean though.
Adam, do you remember doing battle of the graphs for Bf109 k4, F4U, Spitfire, and G.56? I wonder how Ta152h compares. Ta152h just seems so slow on the deck compared to those 4 planes, 578km/h at sea level from my unprofessional test, and the climb rate seems to be at 20m/s at best, nothing compared to those 4 planes.
Ta152H is a bit faster than the Spitfire and the G56 at sea level, so it's not outsped by those planes. Climb rate is below those climb rates, turn is average, MER is the best.
@@AdamTheEnginerd what traits do you see in a good fighter? My belief was that speed, climb, and high speed control are very impotant, all of which K4 takes the cake. And yet, you think that Ta152 is the best German fighter and the game br also thinks so (6.0 vs 5.7). Am I missing something? Edit: also, I really wanted to use your discount code to purchase GE but you didn’t have it. Alas! Maybe consider getting one?
@@thomaszhang3101 No, I said the Ta152H is my favorite, not necessarily the best. Ta152H was also nerfed since this video. You can add turn to the important metrics as well, and MER as a tier 2 metric. In game, airspawns make a big difference in aircraft effectiveness in matches, that's why the Ta152H is at that high of a BR. If it didn't have an airspawn, it would deserve 5.3 BR I'd say.
@@AdamTheEnginerd also, I think you did a great job with your battle of the graphs. It is a shame war thunder didn’t hire people like you to add those information to stat cards of every plane.
2:17 Suffering freezing when u kill someone? That’s also been happening to me on most occasions It annoys me because I don’t get to move outta the way of the dead enemies’ desolate husk in time
Regarding your freezes on Kills, if you have a Nvidia Graphics Card try turning off the Highlight system, saving those clips might cause freezes sometimes.
JG 301 operated about 20 152H-1s in the last ten or so weeks of the war, providing top cover for the Me 262 airbases still hopelessly trying to defend the Reich. Not much was achieved, because low altitude patrol was not really what the H was built for. The C model, which would have worked much better in that role, was coming off the assembly lines when Hitler ate a bullet.
Seems the German cannons are unusually reliable and effective currently. Back when I still played the game, you needed to empty half your ammo load into a single enemy fighter to get a kill and from what I have heard, that hadn't changed for quite some time after my departure. It has always been the case that every 3rd patch or so, the German cannons suddenly got good and then they got nerfed again 3 or 4 days later.
They felt wonderful before I left Germans to fly the soviets, came back coupd not get a simgle kill from the (what feels like the total in accuracy) and just sparks. Also I would actually take allied cannons any day over 151s
Adam, did you practice shooting without zoom? Whenever I prepare to shoot, I always zoom-in first. I know how effective shooting w/o zoom is. But it is pretty hard for me. Should I practice it to be a better player?
i really want to love the fw 190's... But in the Ta i always get rekt by spitfires and f4u's :( I wonder if there were any changes to it since the repair cost has been lowered...
@@AdamTheEnginerd The timing :d just when i unlocked it... Do you have any tips how to use it properly? Since most of the time when i want to try it out i am one of few 6.0s and my instadeaths always feel like a letdown to the rest of the team. Which makes trying to get the hang of it feel bad.
Stick to the Ta152H, and stay close to teammates when stock. Retreat and bait to teammates if you don't have the energy advantage against aircraft that outturn you.
Hello! Very good work! Thanks! I have some questions for you: Has the FM changed since this review? At what speeds or at what times do you recommend using the different flap settings? Does this review apply to SB? Have you considered playing in SB? It's a one way road ... Greetings from Apolok
Yeah the FM got nerfed, turns a bit worse, flaps are less effective and actually rip now. I recommend using combat flaps in a dogfight. Yup I'll be trying out SB this summer!
@@AdamTheEnginerd Thanks for answering me! It's sad to know about the nerf, on the one hand, but great to know that you are going to venture into the world of SB, on the other. I suspect that you will not be able to get out of it and that you will make a great contribution! See you there soon!
@@AdamTheEnginerd idk probably made up by world if warships so they could have German fantasy carriers. It'd be interesting to have one able to carry torps and bombs and land in carriers.
I recently got this today, and man I have been fucking killing the entire enemy air force with this thing. Like I love this thing, it's unique look, it's chad guns and protection and definition of I WILL MAKE YOU PERISH.
I note you play with VSync-ON, but seems it does not hurt your aiming, even with the extra +16ms input lag. I must use higher FPS (+100fps) otherwise I have only sparks and misses. My ping is around 160ms.

The very first As are quite good after all.
I played the 190A5 and A8s that much that I just can play 190As, Ta 152C and heavy fighters of the Germans, planes like the Ta 152H and 109 feel very unnatural for me and I tend to play too risky in them.
This plane has been my favorite T4 german plane for a very long time. Gaijin has messed with the FM alot over the years but the Ta always seemed to have something about it where you could always just energy fight your way out of the problem. Also, I'm not the greatest K4 pilot on earth but I always find that the Ta out-guns, out-dives, and out-turns the K4.
Outdives depends on your metric, but the other 2 yeah.
@@AdamTheEnginerd My metric for out diving is that it rips later and doesn't compress as bad near its red-line.
I love it too, I once trolled a spit just like you would have done it: turn turn turn while he is losing losing losing (energy).
Most times I play the C however.
Trolling the clipped wing Spitfires are especially fun.
@@AdamTheEnginerd Yes, but then they dont really try anymore.
Its more fun for me when I know that they think that their plane is better in everything and then wonder themself how they got into a situation they dont know from their plane and try something new but it still does not work.
Great video dude absolutely loved how you explain your moves really helped me play better
Can you playing the BF 110 G -2 please
It's on my list!
2:10 freezes are caused by shadowplay highlights recording on HDD. turn them off or set it to SSD.
No, I don't use shadowplay.
@@AdamTheEnginerd strange then. but still clearly looks like HDD is struggling to load kill events.
Before the nerf i had 4:1 kd in it but after the nerf,it went to 2:1.But i think the plane is still very good.
Hmm I think it's still close, but yeah Ta152H was nerfed in that department.
@@AdamTheEnginerd I noticed my K:D drop is not because of the nerf.İt is because of 288 spam.
teammate : ooh nice bait
me who was frantically trying to dodge : np man
Haha!
Now play the Ta152 C3, full commit headons only :P
C3 is really good too especially if you wanna snipe some
Haha I refuse!
Ive actually had successful dogfights in my c3. But moat of the time i need the help of an ally to throw him off
Ooh, H1 game play :D Nice played Adam :)
Thanks mate!
@@AdamTheEnginerd You just made me play the H1 again. It hurts with the 34k repair tho, lol. But its a fun plane :D
Still waiting for the A2D-1 video :D
Nice video though
Edit: 2:12 I have the same problem although I play on ULQ , this issue appeared only after the last Update
Thanks!
Excellent, it's like Phly but litterate and without all the screaming.
Haha thanks?
Can you play the I-185 at 5.0?
yea the I-185(M-71)
It's on my list!
Always a good day when Adam uploads. Good kills!
Adam is my favorite German! ;)
Haha thanks!
Acabei de ganhar uma com o Adam kkkkk
Congrats ;).
Seeing this flap description after the P38L video, wanted to know if can you point me towards a guide so I can learn the properties of aircraft before I fly them (maybe)?
You can follow this to get the FM data files: www.reddit.com/r/Warthunder/comments/8nq70p/tutorial_how_to_datamine_or_how_i_learned_to_stop/
You need some knowledge to know what the coefficients mean though.
2:14 you re not the only one !
Ye it's been going around.
Adam, do you remember doing battle of the graphs for Bf109 k4, F4U, Spitfire, and G.56? I wonder how Ta152h compares. Ta152h just seems so slow on the deck compared to those 4 planes, 578km/h at sea level from my unprofessional test, and the climb rate seems to be at 20m/s at best, nothing compared to those 4 planes.
Ta152H is a bit faster than the Spitfire and the G56 at sea level, so it's not outsped by those planes. Climb rate is below those climb rates, turn is average, MER is the best.
@@AdamTheEnginerd what traits do you see in a good fighter? My belief was that speed, climb, and high speed control are very impotant, all of which K4 takes the cake. And yet, you think that Ta152 is the best German fighter and the game br also thinks so (6.0 vs 5.7). Am I missing something?
Edit: also, I really wanted to use your discount code to purchase GE but you didn’t have it. Alas! Maybe consider getting one?
@@thomaszhang3101 No, I said the Ta152H is my favorite, not necessarily the best. Ta152H was also nerfed since this video.
You can add turn to the important metrics as well, and MER as a tier 2 metric. In game, airspawns make a big difference in aircraft effectiveness in matches, that's why the Ta152H is at that high of a BR. If it didn't have an airspawn, it would deserve 5.3 BR I'd say.
@@AdamTheEnginerd ah, I see. I will probably take the Bf109 k4 then, since I mainly use it for ground rb.
@@AdamTheEnginerd also, I think you did a great job with your battle of the graphs. It is a shame war thunder didn’t hire people like you to add those information to stat cards of every plane.
i know im late but ur advice rlly helps me and made be better at being a pilot
Never too late! Glad to hear it!
2:17
Suffering freezing when u kill someone?
That’s also been happening to me on most occasions
It annoys me because I don’t get to move outta the way of the dead enemies’ desolate husk in time
Yup same.
6:30 How can this kind of roll whipping be avoided? This happens on C205 VERY frequently and its kinda annoying
Happens you are using flaps and trying to roll while pitching on the 152H.
Shame the massive repair cost ruined planes like the ta. Also have you got a sound mod on?
No mod.
2:12 - Dude! I have the same thing! Are you using Shadowplay? I also had freezes during my kills... so frustrating
I don't use Shadowplay.
@@AdamTheEnginerd oh, I see. you probably use the Radeon software then, correct?
Nope, OBS.
Have you done a video on the P51 D5? I find that one tough to fight the axis in. Maybe the German bomber spam made it not as rough.
I haven't yet. If the rudder wasn't trash it might be fine.
Adam514 it’ll be a challenge for you then 😁
really cool video, but do you think you could use French planes? Like the D.520 or MB 157 or one of the VBs. Keep up the great work!
Thanks!
They are on my list!
Regarding your freezes on Kills,
if you have a Nvidia Graphics Card try turning off the Highlight system, saving those clips might cause freezes sometimes.
I don't have that.
JG 301 operated about 20 152H-1s in the last ten or so weeks of the war, providing top cover for the Me 262 airbases still hopelessly trying to defend the Reich. Not much was achieved, because low altitude patrol was not really what the H was built for. The C model, which would have worked much better in that role, was coming off the assembly lines when Hitler ate a bullet.
Both models weren't suited for low altitude.
Seems the German cannons are unusually reliable and effective currently.
Back when I still played the game, you needed to empty half your ammo load into a single enemy fighter to get a kill and from what I have heard, that hadn't changed for quite some time after my departure.
It has always been the case that every 3rd patch or so, the German cannons suddenly got good and then they got nerfed again 3 or 4 days later.
They felt wonderful before I left Germans to fly the soviets, came back coupd not get a simgle kill from the (what feels like the total in accuracy) and just sparks.
Also I would actually take allied cannons any day over 151s
They are more consistent than other cannons.
Adam, did you practice shooting without zoom? Whenever I prepare to shoot, I always zoom-in first.
I know how effective shooting w/o zoom is.
But it is pretty hard for me. Should I practice it to be a better player?
I just never got into zooming, since it doesn't inherently increase gun accuracy. I don't recommend zooming if you can help it.
Love the focke wulf’s.
This one is my third favourite, the fw ta 152
2nd is fw 190 f8
First is fw 190 d9
What about Fw189? ;).
i really want to love the fw 190's... But in the Ta i always get rekt by spitfires and f4u's :( I wonder if there were any changes to it since the repair cost has been lowered...
@@drivinpeople8699 Yeah Ta152s did get a decent nerf.
@@AdamTheEnginerd The timing :d just when i unlocked it... Do you have any tips how to use it properly? Since most of the time when i want to try it out i am one of few 6.0s and my instadeaths always feel like a letdown to the rest of the team. Which makes trying to get the hang of it feel bad.
Stick to the Ta152H, and stay close to teammates when stock. Retreat and bait to teammates if you don't have the energy advantage against aircraft that outturn you.
Wow unbelievable energy retaintion, and unbelievable acceleration 😯😯😯
Haha accel is fine.
Why loop towards the ground at 5:50? To make sure he doesn't run away?
Yeah, so forces a dogfight that I'll win. Classic merge strategy.
Fw190 Line is awesome, and this one is the GOAT
Hello! Very good work! Thanks!
I have some questions for you:
Has the FM changed since this review?
At what speeds or at what times do you recommend using the different flap settings?
Does this review apply to SB?
Have you considered playing in SB? It's a one way road ...
Greetings from Apolok
Yeah the FM got nerfed, turns a bit worse, flaps are less effective and actually rip now. I recommend using combat flaps in a dogfight.
Yup I'll be trying out SB this summer!
@@AdamTheEnginerd Thanks for answering me! It's sad to know about the nerf, on the one hand, but great to know that you are going to venture into the world of SB, on the other. I suspect that you will not be able to get out of it and that you will make a great contribution! See you there soon!
There's a Ta-152 C3/R14 Which was Carrier based.
Why though.
@@AdamTheEnginerd idk probably made up by world if warships so they could have German fantasy carriers. It'd be interesting to have one able to carry torps and bombs and land in carriers.
Man I really do love this thing. Spaded it in 5 matches. What would you recommend for an “optimal” climb speed/angle for this?
270 km/h IAS sounds good.
AdamTheEnginerd I’ve also heard that the cover modification actually lowers your turning capabilities? Any idea if this is true?
Perhaps it's true, need to test that.
The k4 109 and the ta152 are my fav German planes I always do well in them
What's the ta152h climb like when it's spaded since I'm flying the ta152h stock
It's a bit under average for 6.0.
''what can the p51 do?'' them flashbacks
Good memories ;).
We want to hear more of your voice. It's beautiful!
Haha thanks! Perhaps next week ;).
@@AdamTheEnginerd looking forwards to it!
I recently got this today, and man I have been fucking killing the entire enemy air force with this thing. Like I love this thing, it's unique look, it's chad guns and protection and definition of I WILL MAKE YOU PERISH.
Yeah, it used to be even better and at a lower BR too.
2:13
yea, that's because of poor server
hard to play air battle recently :(
Put my graphics down and it helped.
Good one!
I also had problems with freezes,
maybe the problem would be the new update?
Thanks!
Yeah it's gotten a lot worse for me since the update.
I havent replayed it since the most recent buff but it has been a good plane for a long time
Recent buff like 6 months ago?
You forgot to mention that the Ta only does well at climbing unless theres a spitfire
152H has average climb.
What’s your opinion on the Meteor F Mk 3. I just got it as my first jet and was wondering if there’s any advice
It's decent.
I note you play with VSync-ON, but seems it does not hurt your aiming, even with the extra +16ms input lag. I must use higher FPS (+100fps) otherwise I have only sparks and misses. My ping is around 160ms.
Hmm where did you get 16ms?
@@AdamTheEnginerd at 60fps you have 16.77ms for each frame (1000ms/60 frames). So you are always 16.77ms behind the action.
That's at worst. On average it'll be 16.77/2.
I can't run at much more than 60FPS anyway.
