Coolest bomb in the game, on a very cool plane 😎 I know Americans could have something like this on B29 right? I would love to see that in game. Also is anyone exited to see what the next update has in store? So far, we're on a good start of devblogs with very needed spaa for US.
Lol turret layout, and what type of turrets(how amny guns) can help a lot to identify that cluster of pixels lol Planes are just black dots in the blue sky, so you just have to look for those(I recommend clean the monitor before that)
@@mothman7786 well you have to first select fill realistic controls, then assign a button for brakes and then swap to whatever controls you were using first. Then spawn, throttle up full and break until you see the plane dragging forward. Then release and do a happy successful short take off :D. Try it in test fly first just in case. But it works with any plane
@@mothman7786 All braks is B by default. Also, I suggest using rudder controls Q/E and assign them to Left/Right brakes. Makes it a lot easier to maneuver on the ground.
i blame the wunderwaffe lol, but he 117 is a clean super bomber... i think americas porcupine syndrome super fortress is more epic, but fritz is just more satisfying
@@denismaine4089 The Strela launcher on the Bernau is practically useless. You can't even get an IR lock of a 4-engine bomber within 1.5km let alone a single engine fighter at that range
18:18 That was me (Foulspawn). You were so hard to hit because my AI gunners refuse to shoot at you I had to manually aim. That was a great match,. I got to kill a battleship SMS Ostfriesland with my light cruiser RN Etna. Like throwing eggs at a wall
Great shot. I lost my altitude when you got me, I was like at 4km. But on the next run I was at 5km+ and I noticed your shots were exploding too early (below me). Etna is such a cool cruiser, I wish it had a scout plane. And yeah those guns are not good against battleships 😂
Back to the day when WoWs released Graf Zeppelin, on the first day AP bombs from Ju87 becomes the only ship that can one click delete German turtle back battleships. The value of Tripitz crashed like AP bomb drops. Soon WG recalled GZ.
Now this type of gameplay is amazing and I personally love it, the amount of satisfaction you get from getting kills from fritxs is insane but the dissapointing thing is the low amount of rewards you get (1k-2k sl per kill) spending around 20 minutes to get at the right altitude then another 20 to get 2-3 kills just to get a max of 5k silver lions is demoralizing.
The reward could definitely be much better, at least in RB. Also I guess it depends what type of ship I destroy. And yeah this is very fun, very impressive till you see AA missile incoming lol
Actually, the Fritz X isnt entirely German. Most of its systems were copied from a French-made glide bomb (the BHT-38). The original french designer in exile (Maurice Hurel and Jean Turck) helped the allies make a jamming tool because the Germans didn't change the radio frequency of the control system.
Since most people play arcade, it's the He-111 is actually better for this role there. With He-177 the aiming gets locked on the first bomb, so if you miss the first drop you have to wait until it lands before you can try again. With He-111 the only bomb will rearm by the time the previous one lands.
Also, because of how the aiming with Fritz-X works, you can start maneuvering away after you drop it. The aiming will be locked to the same spot even if you fly upside down. So once you launch it, you can turn away and try to go in the direction that avoids clouds.
Awesome vid as always Dollar - did you get any reasonable amount of SL / RS doing this? Apart from being an awesome way to get kills I doubt it gets you a lot of SL lol
Let's goo, im gonna unlock the me264 soon and then use them, this video is perfect :D I also just got 4 theeths pulled out of my mouth a few hours ago, so even the timing is great... I think i had a question that i wanted to ask you but i forgot it, well, i hope it wasn't important haha
Very....Fritzy. Those killcams where Fritz was just penning the hell outta those deck is *chef's kiss* Sadly i have to take a break from ships to focus on Merkava Mk4 series since the 5 sec buff is way too good to pass up and plans to get a talisman for 4M version. Thanks for the naval gameplay,my dude
Pro-tip for disconnects. When you get back to the hangar use the "switch user" button to logout and login again, which should prompt the "rejoin current battle" option.
19:03 That's about how Littorio sunk. Fritz over penetrated and exploded under her hull, so theoretically that Nassau should be experiencing immense flooding.
I have actually been using the Fritz X for months. It takes some time to get it up but it is so much fun blowing ships up. I never saw someone else use it though, hopefully that will change now.
If you think the Fritz X is cool (it really is) The B-29 had an automatic targeting system that used a computer to create a ballistic trajectory to hit air targets extremely accurately
The level of modeling to show the Fritz X going through multiple decks before detonating is just. 👀👀👌👌Kudos to the modeling and programmers at Gaijin for that. And when you planted it straight down a funnel on Hood to one shot it. Typical Hood experience. 👌👌 19:45 that Des Moines.... that is some 1000 IQ thinking to protect the cargo ship.
"The runway is too short," me in sim battles with stock lancaster, your too short was just fine, lancaster just barely took of and imedietly had to avoid trees.
Not just lancaster - stock lancaster, no engine improvements, when you get it some improvements, it's fine... anyways, 262 C-2 doesn't sound british, so I doubt I'll get to it (especially considering how rarely I play with planes)

the game actually helps you see planes - if it's so far away that it wouldn't be visible at all the game makes the dot a bit bigger
Gustavo Bellizzini is the last survivor of the Battleship Roma(sunk by fritz X during ww2) , he is 102
did they hit the ammo storage?
@@laberdude It entered through the chimney and destroyed the central section of the battleship.
In that situation gustavo propably would not survive that blast 😅@@laberdude
@@laberdude First one near miss (still damage) second one passed it thought, third one straight into the ammo storage.
2:37 always accelerate with brakes on and then release them when the plane starts to move. It really works on short runways.
Oh, that's a great suggestion
How do you keep the brakes on while accelerating?
@@mothman7786 well you have to first select fill realistic controls, then assign a button for brakes and then swap to whatever controls you were using first.

19:46 the USS Des Moines also seems to have some alien tech going on.
How does that even happen? 😂😂
Yeah, he's on a different level
I love how the time stamp is the year Des Moines was launched.
Idk why but the he 117 a5 just Looks so good for a ww2 era bomber especially it carrying fritz x
I agree
i blame the wunderwaffe lol, but he 117 is a clean super bomber... i think americas porcupine syndrome super fortress is more epic, but fritz is just more satisfying
@@brayachdragonbane7529 ikr also I don’t see the he 117 that much even in a 6.0 game

War Thunder grind finally got to me after 5 years of daily playing and I quit the game for good but your vids are still fire Dollar 🔥
5y of daily would do that for you. Everyone needs to take a break from this( or any) game once a while.
I'm glad you enjoy my videos ✌️
Lucky you... I'm still over here F2P playing Genshin, Zenless, and War Thunder like a masochist...🥲
Omg the return of the Fritz X this was such a great video, definitively love naval enduring confrontation and bombers mixed together
Glad you enjoyed!
FRITZ X IS BACK!!!!!!
💪
O yej
Ahhh yes.... Long range Heat Seeking A2A missiles versus WW2 prop planes... how very... Gaijin.
Not heat seeking if I remember they are manually guided, test drive the uss Douglas on us costal
reminder they still have the King Tiger and ME-262 pitted against Mig Alley era cold war jet fighters.
Sounds like War Thunder 👌...

It's been in the game for a long time now. With the new BP we'll get hs293 bomb as well
Fun fact: the He 177 has 4 engines, 2 per propeller
ya with enormous problems...He 277 is the 4 engines (conventionnal) version.

I love naval videos so fricking much. There is no word in any language to express how much i like dollar naval content
Dollar getting ready to pilot the Haunebu in Neu Swabia.
The sunset, the clouds, the view from up above, the music, everything so damn epic man. Well done!
Love the vids. Keep up the great work Dollar💪
💪
Your success on YTB is 50% your accent, 40% the edit and 10% the skill
That Des Moines at the end had me rolling, perfect sound choice as always
Awesome vid as always Dollar - did you get any reasonable amount of SL / RS doing this? Apart from being an awesome way to get kills I doubt it gets you a lot of SL lol
I don't even know, I didn't track sl gain, but I feel like I didn't earn too much
@@DOLLARplays Fair enough, thank you anyways for the awesome vid
4:43 They stole it from us
I was half way expecting a Yoda scream during this video on a instant kill on the hood. Great vid dollar 👍
When i saw it in the Lifestream i already thought that Dollar would maybe do another FRITZ X video❤ "HANZ HAST DU DIE ALIENTECHNOLOGIE?"
Let's goo, im gonna unlock the me264 soon and then use them, this video is perfect :D
I also just got 4 theeths pulled out of my mouth a few hours ago, so even the timing is great...
I think i had a question that i wanted to ask you but i forgot it, well, i hope it wasn't important haha
You can always ask later. I hope the procedure went well
As far as I know the 264 does not have the Fritz X, it’s the He-111 H-6 and He-177A-5 that had them
this is so freaking cool dollar , never thought id enjoy a naval content so much but those kills were so satisfying!
Very cool ✌️😎

Loved the vid! Was so cool to see you killing ships with the ap bombs!

Pro-tip for disconnects. When you get back to the hangar use the "switch user" button to logout and login again, which should prompt the "rejoin current battle" option.
A pleasure to watch as always. Just remember that you can turn after dropping the bomb to help you line up those clouds better 😊

Is it more than 1k spawn points?
@@w1zz0k12 I dont think so, its closer to six-seven hundred
Amazing video, not much of a naval player and hate playing bombers, you made me want to play both
This man is REALLY making me wanna try naval now.
You know what this naval is super nice... brings whole different view of the game. Gonna start playing it!
Super great video would love to see more bomber content on naval definitely an untapped market
I love that plane in simulator battles, it has saved me from bankruptcy many times.
Oh yes, Fritz X baby! 🗿🚀
Naval! 🙌🏻
And with banger music as always 🥹
I have actually been using the Fritz X for months. It takes some time to get it up but it is so much fun blowing ships up. I never saw someone else use it though, hopefully that will change now.

And can you make a review on WTM
Dude smigol almost made me choke on my food. Good one dollar

Sim with B-29 is also the case, you tend to get the 6.0-7.0 match with short runway.
You can barely take off and landing is a whole ass challenge.
