GREAT VIDEO, critical information here. Now, to add my two cents -- I want to ECHO the fact that you do NOT need to fly low with this bomber for any reason , except (yeah, one exception) when you are so low, very low, in health that the AA guns might kill you over the sector. In that case alone, and IF, only IF there is no other enemy plane in the sector, go fly low to avoid AA guns But that's it. Speed and altitude This plane can take out the important targets at MIL based or Mining plant from way high and with little problem The biggest draw back to this plane -- If you are very good with the RB 17, no need to fly this bomber. Rb 17 is faster and has way better defense vs other planes and the reload is as good or better.
Hey😀 thanks for good info. I tried your build, and found it to be the best build for me as well.. I am not sure I truly like this plane though, it seems a bit boring to go to the stratosphere and fly around dropping bombs. But for missions that requires capping or damage to ground targets it will get the job done thanks to the speed. I think I prefer rb-17 or the high tier german ground attackers…😊
Great video, thank you it heaps me a lot , I wos flailing like Nobel low 🤦omg , but now I do much better results in it finally it works for me , great video thanks again
Great informative video. The P-80 is really good at taking these out. Did the grind, and bought some certificates. In the process received so much gold that I can buy the RB-17 as well and still have enough to buy a tier 7 premium.
I wasn't so lucky , but I don't regret grinding, I like the plane , you can get away from P80, unless he gets us on low altitude , but in fact all fighters are dangerous for this bomber:)
@@dimitrisoikonomou3568 No, it is not faster than the RB 17. Two reasons, it is a jet, and second, you have two engine slots on the RB 17. Also, the RB 17 climbs faster.
excellent video , again. many thanks, How do you get those views - is it a mod? can you do a video on the most useful mods like how to show players from bots on teh tab? or teh different views?
Thanks for the video Major! Should i spend 25 euros on certificates for it? I am at 456 candy right now and i want it mainly because i wasted so much time playing during the holidays... Will it be worth or will i be playing with the RB-17 ?
You're asking a difficult question Rb-17 is better but XB-42 also has its advantages, especially over the factory , you also have to take into account that you will get the missing crates from which you can also get a premium plane , my clan member post this morning, a screenshot on my discord of him drawing a B-29 c from the crate , I wasn't so lucky with my ones , but I don't think you can buy a premium plane tier VIII for 25e , you have to decide for yourself, look at the play style again from 18:40 maybe it will help you make a decision , let me know anyway
@@majorpain_26 you did actually. To be fair I want to flex on the clan with these double kills with a single set (something you cannot do with RB-17 because of bomb splash radius)😂. You also give a solution to B-29 at the start of the video (yours is a B-32, but I don't think it's much of a difference).In general I like difficult planes, even though they kinda ruin my w/l ratio slowly, I get much more enjoyment when I succeed in them than flying the Me P1101 for the 16385921 time. My only issue is if said premium is irrelevant to the current meta: I got the J8M from the gold I got from the crates and I consider it borderline garbage, so I don't want to get the same feeling from something I bought for 25 euros. Do you think the XB-42 will be/stay relevant?
@ I think in the near future yes, not many people will be tempted to buy certificates because some content creators have a bad playstyle and the plane looks unattractive, and bad opinions were formed , so we won't see many of them, I think , but this may change when the plane goes back on sale in the premium store, maybe it will even be slightly improved buff to defence will be welcome , It seems to me that the revenues from certificates certainly did not meet expectations, hehehe
First! Thanks for this, JUST unlocked it like 10 minutes ago and not sure how to use the darn thing. Perfect timing for this to come out!
You're welcome :), I would have done it earlier, but I also had to finish this difficult marathon and play with this machine some battles

Excellent work, appreciate the effort you put in to do this. Pay attention fellas he knows his stuff.

On my P80 I couldn't reach it, bro kept climbing and I kept staying behind. Now that I got it, I can safely say that it is faster than the RB-17

My XB42 is not so successful,finding out the rear gun is too difficult to direct to enemy planes at 6. Hoping to use MP´s information as a guidance.

How to fly on bomber up and down when you are in rear shooter aim?
I have a video about advanced settings, take a look at the training video list

Absolutely not, it's one of the worst bombers I've seen.

I played 8 battles on this plane, most of which were against tier 9, where I sucked hard, don't want to fly this piece of crap anymore)))
give him one more chance but fly very high😁
