Hey guys, today i have one of the better 4.7 br Energy Fighters for you, in this Realistic Review: the Soviet La-7. A very good plane that can provide you with many hours of fun ;) Hope you enjoy! and dont forget to like, comment, watch till the end and subscribe.
0:59 , when it happens to me, I usually crash myself into the ground if the Guy who shoot me is like a level 20, Because in the early stages a Team-Kill penalty will take out a good chunk of SL
Jengar yep, when i’m sure i can save myself i go to the AF too, but when my engine dies, instead of trying to kill some low enemies (because they could also kill me) i want to gave the m************ who shoot me the SL penalty... anyway is your son getting better?
Very nice flying Jengar, as usual. I tried the Dolgushin's a couple times in RB but, still having poor aim in RB, I did find the fire beam too narrow as you said. But now I am inspired to try it again :) The Dolgushin's is such a pretty plane. I know this is the regular La-7, but they should not be that different.
In BRITS we have a saying, "If it aint dead, it can't be a killsteal?!". I have it on a macro on my keyboard. Truth be told that guy at the beginning was as good at 'killing' you as he was at 'killing' the guy you ended up dispatching!! Ha! Ha! Great vid on a BEAST of a plane mate. Thanks.
Brilliant head on. You got your shots in and rolled away just before the bullets came in the other direction. Can you do a video on how to do headons and bloom and zooms please.
Guns and cannons are hard to get used to. I mostly try to play a particular nation in a session. When I was a begginer pilot, years ago, sometimes it made me cry, almost... "What happened to me! I was so good with hispanos and cant hit a thing now! Bug, cheat, bad internet!". Yeah, using MG151 for few missions can do that to you :).
What the hell.... You tried to stall a Ki-43.... A FREAKING KI - 43.... That takes skills and experience to master it and also the knowledge to know your aircraft.
Jengar Reminds me all the bad memories when everytime I flew above 6km alt in my 109 F4 & G6... There's always that one skilled pilot either in a J2M2 or Ki-43...
Great flying as usual Jengar! Feel like I should try the Lavochkins. Btw could you fly out the 4.3 typhoon next? I flew it out today and it felt good and might have the potential to be one of my really successful planes. Would love to get some tips from you and hear your thoughts about it. Cheers!
Lala is like a Energy spaceship, i love them, but i dont think the undertiered (except mayby the La-7 to 5.0) they do have a few drawbacks like you said
ABSOLUTELY love this plane, it is SO BALANCED I can't complain, and the guns are really easy to aim because of THAT FAT RUDDER, favorite russian. I love when with some MEC tuning I can keep 700 ias in straight lines after coming from a dive, what a monster
@@jengar6258 today I had a 2v1 against an Italian G2 and a Spit Mk9, the spit was left behind and below while the G2 took the vertical and guess what? I ruined his ace😂 i stalled him out but got sniped by the spitfire after I set the 109 afire, the La7 is a monster
full g-force skill, half stamina skills. But you are right, the problem was rectified when the stamina skill were increased to full and the crew were set to 'veteran'
Also a cheese tactic is to take 7 mins fuel and rush the enemy when they are still climbing and then laugh like a maniac when US/Ger team accuse you of haxing.
Even better when you have teammates trying the same thing, especially for map with forward airbase like Krymsk/Berlin, the tears of P-51 and FW when you rekted them 3 mins in the game is so satisfying. Although Japan will rape you hard with this tactic too so it depends.
This Lavochkin is the only Russian plane I fear when flying against the Russians...The La5s are meh, the La9 together with the La7 are dangerous in my mind, the Yaks are a joke and I prioritize the Lalas first! Great vid by the way :)
Psiion? please elaborate what that is. Attacking ground pounders is almost a no-can-do for me, I HAVE to climb as the mentality of the flying lawnmower just makes me sick to my stomach (especially if said lawnmower is something that does well at higher altitudes)
no, i dont use it, i think there's zero benefit. Whatever set up you use, with ot without it, you got to use limited set ups so you can lead blindly with your setup and get reliable results. its about musscle memory.

Fair enough ;) i was able to reach the airfield though!

Set your convergence to no. Not great, but it'll help some.
their indeed the same Joel! :)
FINALLY my beloved La-7, glad you took it out. I quitted WT for awhile now, but waiting for the day someone makes it in DCS :)
quit? come back ;)
that was my request! thank you so much!!!
you see ;) i get to it eventually! :)
In BRITS we have a saying, "If it aint dead, it can't be a killsteal?!". I have it on a macro on my keyboard. Truth be told that guy at the beginning was as good at 'killing' you as he was at 'killing' the guy you ended up dispatching!! Ha! Ha! Great vid on a BEAST of a plane mate. Thanks.
that saying rings pretty true ;)
That was some tight squeezes against the cannonbusa! Fantastic energy fighter in AB too.
yeah that was a close fight ;)
Yo whats up, it's ya boi Jengar here.
that might be my son in a few years, only with a Jengar Jr in there ;)
+Jengar that's so nice! 😁
indeed!
The only russian plane I own that I always enjoy flying out. Great vid as always man, keep it up!
Cheers daan! quite enjoyable indeed! :)
I'm rooting for the Ki-43 III :p .....damn...you killed him :(
hehe ;) sorry mate!
I look forward to your vids, Jengar. They are very informative and fun to watch. Keep it up!
glad to hear that mate :) i'll do my best to keep it going :)
This & the La - 9 are my worst nightmare in air RP when u see them above you.
definitely, demons when you meet them and their above you ;)
My absolutely favorite prop in war thunder!
can imagine Will, its a worthy plane :)
One my personal favs in AB. Great plane in RB as well if flown correctly, but that applies to most all planes.
yeah, definitely :) i like this plane a lot as well, lots of fun in ab as well :)
Brilliant head on. You got your shots in and rolled away just before the bullets came in the other direction. Can you do a video on how to do headons and bloom and zooms please.
i already have a headon tutorial!
@@jengar6258 found it thank you!

haha, yeah, i remember them days. frustration, why are these not hitting like those other ones :P
Great video bro, intresting how people who tend to team kill die fast ;-)
Cheers mate, and yea, i noticed that too ;)
What the hell.... You tried to stall a Ki-43.... A FREAKING KI - 43.... That takes skills and experience to master it and also the knowledge to know your aircraft.
well, it was close, he got a ricochet in ;) but in the end the plan suceeded!
Jengar Reminds me all the bad memories when everytime I flew above 6km alt in my 109 F4 & G6... There's always that one skilled pilot either in a J2M2 or Ki-43...
that does happen sometimes true ;) you gotta get rid of him, or her :)
Great job, thank you.

its on my to do list mate :)
Nice video, as always! Hey Jengar, did I ever tell you that you are one of my two favorite WT youtubers? ;)
Haha, yeah i heard that somewhere! ;) Thanks mate :)
Lala is like a Energy spaceship, i love them, but i dont think the undertiered (except mayby the La-7 to 5.0) they do have a few drawbacks like you said
agreed mate!
ABSOLUTELY love this plane, it is SO BALANCED I can't complain, and the guns are really easy to aim because of THAT FAT RUDDER, favorite russian. I love when with some MEC tuning I can keep 700 ias in straight lines after coming from a dive, what a monster
Yeah, she's a beauty.

la 7 is middle tier. I don't think its mid to low tier though. anyways great video jengar )))
i meant altitude in that sentence ;) little oops.
What's the intro song, it's so familiar but i can't remember where i heard it
Getting so many control lost with this plane I think Gaijin is secretly nerfed it
new crew? or quite experienced?
full g-force skill, half stamina skills. But you are right, the problem was rectified when the stamina skill were increased to full and the crew were set to 'veteran'
alrighty then :)
Another great match there mate this plane is great in ground forces to :)
Cheers mate :) it has bombs i think right? :)
Also a cheese tactic is to take 7 mins fuel and rush the enemy when they are still climbing and then laugh like a maniac when US/Ger team accuse you of haxing.
Nguyễn Hồng Hải that's like a Me 163
im not really a rusher, although im good at headons, maybe i should try it more often haha ;)
Even better when you have teammates trying the same thing, especially for map with forward airbase like Krymsk/Berlin, the tears of P-51 and FW when you rekted them 3 mins in the game is so satisfying.
Although Japan will rape you hard with this tactic too so it depends.
good job ♫
Thanks mate!
This Lavochkin is the only Russian plane I fear when flying against the Russians...The La5s are meh, the La9 together with the La7 are dangerous in my mind, the Yaks are a joke and I prioritize the Lalas first! Great vid by the way :)
Dennis Van Der Wijst Do not uderestemate the power of the dark side Yak-3/P is strong od the dark side ;-)
well...not really...I dont see them as a threat, I killed many and get killed by it rarely
i also see the la-7's as the priority target when i fight soviets at this br.
I died when I saw your FPS😉
haha :)
Hey Jengar! Would you mind flying out the Fw 190 A-5/U12? I can't seem to get the feel of the later A models with their poor climb rate.
its on my to do list mate :) i'll get to it eventually!
Thanks. It's hard for me to use the plane to its advantages if everyone is at a higher altitude than me
side climb with a psiion is the only way forwards, unless you want to go after the groundpounders ;)
Psiion? please elaborate what that is. Attacking ground pounders is almost a no-can-do for me, I HAVE to climb as the mentality of the flying lawnmower just makes me sick to my stomach (especially if said lawnmower is something that does well at higher altitudes)
passion ;)
How big is the performance difference between the tech tree la-7 and the premium la-7?
Afaik there isn't a difference aside from the paint job and the premium bonuses on the Dolgushin's (premium La-7).
no difference in performance! :)
Jengar, can you take out the Ki-83?
Have a review up on that :)
What are your thoughts on vertical targeting? Do you use it?
no, i dont use it, i think there's zero benefit. Whatever set up you use, with ot without it, you got to use limited set ups so you can lead blindly with your setup and get reliable results. its about musscle memory.
Thanks for your reply :)
np!
Hey jengar how u been love this plane but so far i have the la 5fn 4.3 br any advice to fly it?
Hey jair, im fine tnx, the la4fn is quite similar in style, with some minor differences. Might fly it out soonish as well.
I fly any aircraft with centrally mounted armament with my convergence set to 'No.'
See if you like that better. Cheers Mate!
I like 800m just fine, but will try it out ;)
what belt do you recommend for La-7?
Groundtargets :)
karnisov tracer is very good too, the fi-t shells deal a great amount of fragmentation dmg, try what fits your playstyle better
distracts my aim ;)
I like how you say agile and the plane takes 10 years to turn if you want a fast plane take a fury mk1
hehe :)
Could you fly the He 162?
its on my to do list mate :)
Jengar alright :)
The lavochkin was a very good fighter comparabe with the garman fw190
on mid to low altitude sure!
And both were less than stellar higher up, or am I wrong?
Idk how to fly this plane pls help
below 4000m as an energy fighter.
00:42 hahahahh lmao
always fun eh ;)
Hi Jengar !! I've heard that WT will put air to air missiles on Jets . What do you think of that ?
F Igoillo you should do research
i think that isnt confirmed by gaijin, as thats something they always said they will not implement.
How do you get ammo count on the hud, i cant find it anywhere
keith benson I believe it's in the 'Options' menu under 'Miscellaneous'
Thanks i'll look again
keith benson it's automatic for me))
just go trough the options menu, its in there somewhere! :)
found it thanks
I load 11m fuel and rush attackers and ground units :)))
thats a method i guess, and then you die against diving fighters? ;)
I do it when I grind atleast. And diving japanese planes is... difficult to survive...
yeah true, that's why i dont do it ;) but to be fair, i dont have to grind anymore in air, i have most things unlocked, barring a few jets.
Upload
Russian have Unlimited Ability
i dont agree with that ;)
0:42 thnx me later
Russian bias
there is no russian bias in air ;)
