-"When does that thing lose power ?"
-"no"
Lmao, Defyn being Defyn.
Hey man, I'm skepter this whole fight was in your favor and I knew what you're capable of! I had fun though!
So you're the reason why my Ta-152H1 costs so much >:c
Asif Talpur Nah Gaijin is Lol. It’s insanely easy (at least used to be).
I love the p-38k it's one of the only planes that feels so overpowered but can get so wrecked if you fly it even slightly wrong
It really takes skill to use it effectively. I'm a huge fan of it and I don't regret ever buying it.
@@howiethehowitzer7398 for real theres nothing quite like lifting you nose up and just just going up up up and not stopping
@@lightunicorn1371 love it, 264 are still deadly but I find spiking up to them to be the best. It's such a fun plane, hopefully I get some time later to play it.
@Galaxy Gamers very true but the roll rate has gotten me killed a few times when I was at an energy disadvantage
@Galaxy Gamers depends how good the p-51 is and what alt I'm at
P-38K at high altitude: UNLIMITED POWER!
18:30 "Just fight me, it's one on one"...
There is no "fight me" scenario there for him. It's either try to do anything and die or run to AF and have at least a chance to do anything later. Which he did actually.
Which he did and then instantly ran back to base again, if you have no intention of fighting go land and leave
@@DEFYN Well if your attempt fails and you feel you have no tactical advantage anymore why not run away and reset for another attack?
Because if you have to use the airfield to win you dont deserve the win anymore
@@DEFYN The AF AAA is there for some reason and not using it looks stupid to me. Honest but stupid. After all the mode is called "realistic". Killed most of the enemies but in the end lost the match because of a guy who used all the tricks available? Cmon, this is the ultimate realism implemented in War Thunder :)
I am not sure if I am being wooshed completely by some god tier sarcasm or if you are actually serious anymore xd
When I get into a situation where I must go to the AF, I generally just leave to save a repair cost and to end the game. It's no fun for anyone.
109s will still try to energy fight this thing at 7km
A lot of 109 pilots and war thunder players in general think they can get away with anything.
Many 109s are just used to fight against yaks, la5s, p51s, f4us, p47s and different british planes. With something out of the ordinary you just go with the usual tactics. Many times it works, sometimes not.
That's literally me
@@superandreanintendo They should have been slapped by the P-47 D-28 at 7k
P 47s can wreck them at that Alt yet they still fall for it. The only way they even escape is bad aim or 50 cals.
Martijn Frfr. I drag them upwards of 7k and whoop them up.
Skepter is a very good player, it’s funny how when you get shot down sometimes and look up the player to see they have amazing stats! This happened to me against Zetaris at 10.3... nice analysis tho, definitely a plane that you need a lot of nerves of steel in! One thing that would be cool to see is you in a 1v1 duel with Ripjawz or other top pilots but with both of you narrating what you were thinking during the duel... instead of a one sided narration...
Ah yes, one of few planes I'd still like to have...
Go get it now
@@baer3591 no because it's in pack with T29 that I absolutely dont care about
@@baer3591 buying it rn lmao
Nothing is more annoying than being in your 109 at 6km and spotting a p38 at the same altitude.
I think it's more annoying when he's on your ass as well :^)
Johnwick just died so defyn could have a good game
He told me so
Hes a really generous guy yeh
@@ClockPerfection he is johnwick
@@wg4112 I know that lol
Had a moment like the one where the zero was trapped by his base but I was the one stuck. Took out the premium do335 and after a couple kills I made a bad call and took some fire so I had to dive out and repair. an f82e sat above my af for the rest of the match just out of aaa range and diving at me every single time i tried to take off. He was so mad that I wasn't pitching up into him in a brick at 300km/h and using some wild language to try and bait me into commiting into a fight where I wouldnt have ever been capable of getting nose on. Moral of the story, of you really want to fight someone repairing and aware if you, give them a km or 2 to actually take off! Not you defyn you obviously dont make mistakes but for everyone else!
I hated this thing when I got it, as it went very much against my b’n’z playstyle. Then it sorta clicked and now I’m enjoying it. Closest comparable I’ve flown is probably Mig-15bis, since it has nearly the same strenghts and limitations. You just can’t go fast in it.
That was like the most satisfying WT video I have ever watched.
DEFYN Flying the Ki 83. Something I didn't know I needed to see until I heard it
So the A7M was nerfed, why not make a vid about how to fight in that thing
Still looks powerful cause the A7M is faster than A6M and still kinda maneuverable
It even got upteired AFTER the nerf two times.
Btw I am talking about the A7M2 not the 5.0 premium one
I believe the A7M2 has a better engine
@@BambooPill Im talking about the 5.0 premium one. Was 4.3 when I bought it, was nerfed 3 days later and got consistently upteired and now for some reason sits at 5.0
Asif Talpur It’s balanced at 5.0 since it can kill other 5.0s and be killed by by them without too much difficulty . The A7M2 feels unbalanced to fight even when I fly 5.7s that have much better energy retention. The problem is that it doesn’t stall and can also go very fast before it begins to have any real lock up despite the wing shape in real life causing the A6 and A7 to struggle a bunch at high speeds. I use the I-225 btw, and I’ve fought against many Reppus that literally wouldn’t stall until either the last second or after I’ve already gotten past their guns. They seem to be able to level out a little and then return to the stall climb, which violates all the laws of energy and no other plane can do. Not even the Ki-84 can do that. It can pull up a little after leveling out, but it’ll stall again within about 2 seconds which makes sense. If you have any tips for fighting the Reppu with its wonky, overperforming FM, then please tell me.
@@kommandantkillcode lol I didn't notice that much while using the reppu
What I do is just climb higher than enemies and push them down cause I ain't really a good pilot lol
Something about stall climb that you mentioned, I guess it's because how light the A6 and A7 are, maybe that's why they can speed up quickly and go back to a stall climb
I love how you explain everything you do for people like me to get better, very underrated channel
God I love this thing and I hate it with a passion 😂Good to see more content on it.
Any chance of seeing some MB157 matches at some point? I wanna see how you handle 60rpg that are wing mounted.
My best is 6 kills in a match but with a rearming, so I expect something even more insane from you 😅.
Are you using a sound mod? Cause this plane sounds just gorgeous!
Sure does, stock sounds though
Skepter is a fantastic player!

JG54 “Sayaka” oh, what are you doing here? Love your Gunship WW2 videos btw.
@@HawkerMkIII haha thanks man, appreciate it!
I make War Thunder videos too and just uploaded one the other day featuring a 7 kill game I managed to get, you should check that out too!
Squishface yes we’re a squishface fan squadron, we have nothing on ENERD
mattB I usually just leave matches with them
My top plane is the p 38k. At low alt that thing can really dog fight. The roll rate hampers it tho. I have over 2k kills in it.
Love all your vids, Defyn. I for one would like to see a new review on the nerfing of the A7M1 or A7M2.
Oh that is why you got that Bas Rutten accent!
I love the p38 so much
Probably my favorite plane
So rewarding to play
What did they nerf about the A7M2 and when? Also, any tips on fighting Japanese teams without a competent team, so basically solo.
I feel like this plays almost exactly like a souped up P-38J. I don't have the plane, and I probably won't because it's one of those limited-time premiums (fuck you Gaijin, just let the thing be purchasable normally).
The P-38K actually would be a hot rod version of the P-38J-5-Lo. The two P-38K prototypes were built during the trials of the P-38J in early 1943.
A P-38K would have no boosted ailerons, no dive flaps, but it would have the chin mounted intercoolers. It would have 1875HP F-15 Allison engines and 13'-6" Hamilton Standard hydrostatic high activity paddle props. It had awesome horsepower, and great propellors to harness that power efficiently.
The P-38K was not adopted, Lockheed was not allowed to produce it, despite the Army Materials Command requesting it in June of 1943, and again in May of 1944.
The boosted ailerons and the dive flaps actually did exist when the P-38K prototypes were built and tested. However, those parts were critical, needed for the aircraft destined for combat, so they were not installed on the prototypes. Had the P-38K been produced, it would have had the boosted ailerons, dive flaps, and flat armored glass. It would have entered production in August/September of 1943, and replaced the P-38J series.
Had that happened, the P-38L would like have retained the 1875HP F-15 Allison engines, and gotten the 4 blade version of the propellors from the P-38K.
Skepter is a really good player, I've seen he do unbeliavable carries
Would love to get this P-38 on PS4, sadly never available for sale...
Basically yes and no to get it. I love it regardless. Good gameplay
Your voice reminds me of Jengar, a fellow War Thunder player. :D
BTW can someone answer me, when you are in a stall trying to energy trap a guy and want to dive fast, what flaps to use? Take off or Landing? Same questions is about turning with planes that don't have combat flaps. Which are better from the two and what is the difference?
When energy trapping someone and you want to turn back onto your target fast use landing flaps if you are at extremely low speed, combat or takeoff at higher speeds. When turn fighting in a plane that doesn’t have combat flaps in all cases except the fw-190 you will only have landing flaps. In that case you can’t use flaps to dogfight at all unless you’re doing extremely low speed maneuvers like stall fighting. If you’re in an fw-190, however use takeoff flaps to dogfight. The difference between takeoff and landing flaps as far as using them in combat is that takeoff flaps allow your plane to turn a little better at higher speeds. Landing flaps allow your plane to turn better and generate more lift during stall maneuvers.
@@CyberRelic280 Thanks!
Love this plane. It's my new favorite US plane, and getting good in this thing takes a shit ton of calculated aggressive flying. Fly it wrong and you get clapped, fly it right, you 3v1 people on the deck dodging them all and still being able to go up. Cracked engines on this thing.
Unrelated question, is that a userskin or can I buy that skin for this plane on the market?
NVM found it it was a userskin on wtlive
Will u make a video about the new Thunderbolt?
In all honesty not soon most likely
I am vertical.
Hell yeah Defyn posted a prop video 👍
16:56 kinda sus 😳
Yes it is back
where in the settings can you switch on both airspeeds to be indicated? 🤔
sry for my dumb beginners questions, but the menu in war thunder is a lil bit complicated 😇🤗
I believe it’s in options, there is a switch for each setting, turn on both.
@@yogibearthebear6774 found it...this menu makes me crazy.
more difficult than flying an actual plane...
IT MAY NOT BE REWARDING BUT ITS i think cause we cant compete with professionals like yourself and are tired of dying every 120sec until were better
the scariest plane if im in a 109... i still don't know how to counter them if they dive on me
Thankfully most of my teams in Air RB don’t waste time playing with those Airfield camping guys.
Take the rest of the team down then the rest of the team that is still alive storms that poor soul flying over their airfield 🤣
J2M2 VS. P38K!!!
I just wanted to say thank you for covering some of the US planes, especially the ones that can't spiral and win like a spitfire or a zero. These are very educational!!
P38k very nice!!!
Is heading to the base after losing an engine and running out of cannon ammo in the P-38E and then pick up 2 enemies on the way and continuing to the airfield allowed?
My KD in this thing is terrible... but my KDA is 1:2 xd so yeah - this plane is quite frustrating in terms of getting kills - ecspecially when you fly solo 99% of the time.
love the look of it but find it to be a struggle to fly sigh
P38k, p51h or spit mk 24. Which one os the best?
P51h handily, mk24 second
Nice!
Diving is just negative climbing 🤔
Ok but have you ever tried less than 100% throttle
p38 pilots lied, they said they could turn with zeros
Some pilots aren't the best
The P-38 can turn with the A6M, at low speeds and with flaps extended. There are a number of documented instances of it. There is an interview of a P-38 pilot who even out-turned a Ki-43 in a turn. The P-38 has gentle stall characteristics allowing it to pull high AoA for the lead for a shot
Stupid question here, is this realistic or arcade? I'm very new at this game and I noticed that my planes seem to be nerfed a lot in realistic.
Realistic like the entire channel lol
@@DEFYN Thanks for your reply
Hi, how much hp the engine has on that plane? Cause i cant see it in the game my self
How do I obtain this airplane? I've searched it up on the war thunder tech tree and it doesn't appear.
In a true 1 on 1 skepter there would have had you
moist
Hello DEFYN, we like your voice a lot can you make an asmr video??? :D
How i get this plane
Is it better than p47D28 at high altitude
Probably, but the D-28 still is really good compared to most at altitude.
How can i buy this plane ?
Comes around on occasion, it's not for sale very often
How did you get that skin?
Screw base campers
the this plne got remove?
Usually for sale around Christmas and July 4th
@@Spectre407 thank I can't wait for Christmas so gaijin can take all my money 😩
The air field is a great way to reset a fight.
Especially when you have no team mates left.
Is it fun to run to other teammates for help?
Same concept... not trying to kill the pursuer, just trying to reset the fight and possibly turn a loss into a win.
Especially when base camping planes fly so high above the spawn point and you have no other option for a fair fight when you come back in.... im more annoyed about spawn campers and I will gladly use the airbase to my advantage when the enemy has an easy and decisive altitude advantage.
I’m not going to declare defeat just because I had to return to the air base to re-arm or fix my plane and I will still leave to go hunt for a mor favorable meal but I’ll use the air field to my advantage well i try to gain altitude.
It’s not fun and I don’t learn anything getting blown out of the sky when i’m low, slow, and can do nothing about it.
The P-38 works best when you're a part of a squad that is also in P-38s
how do you get the P-38K?
Rare shop at their website
watch my newest video for 7 kills without strafing reee (one bomber in fairness tho)
I've never been killed by a p38, not even by accident. If you dont fly silly getting baited at high altitude there's nothing they can do. On the other hand the plane is huge and predictable, making it super easy to punish mistakes. Its a free kill, eventually
Wut? Wanna 1v1 me bro? You take the 109g2, i’ll take the 38L
If i fly fast and low there's nothing you can do to me. And this is coming from defyn too so its not just bragging.
@@Akhaaelikian The P-38 just has to survive for a short time, until you have burned all your fuel. That's the power of American planes.
A plane that relies on others to run out of fuel is insignificant on a match scale. Remember that while you're wasting time with some guy your own team could be getting slaughtered. Defyn said it himself, its best flown with a squad because stuff like that will happen. Not to mention he also said the plane thrives at being passive but you are forced into being aggressive for that exact reason. Its a contraddiction with wings
The L-O can easily shoot you down if you keep your speed
The fact this one can't is because the airframe is outdated as hell
People don't fight because they don't want to lose silver. It's hard to come by, it takes forever to grind, and gaijibbles loves throttling repair costs so high the players lose money if they die. And if they can't get out of dying they will at least deny you a win if they can't ram you to deny you the silver and kill count. You want people to play and not exploit? Bitch at gaijin, tell them to lower repair costs. Then you might have an easier time getting footage.
Awwww, sadly the first fight didnt end up as a 1 v 1 :/
I mean he was done there anyways, and i killed him literally 1 second before the tickets ran out lmao
@@DEFYN yeah but U never know :D maybe you would've missed ;3
I would've, problem is the tickets here
@@DEFYN oke I trust U babe
Man, why not just move to the IL-2 Great Battles instead of this half-arcade grind game? You are obviously interested in real dogfight.
Because I already played those games too much
@@DEFYN Oh...okay :)
@@DEFYN Have you tried any of the new stuff on IL2?
18:30 im sorry DEFYN but this part anoyed me, youre in a stronger plane with all the advantage in the world and you complain about him running to the AF when he is near it? you would have done exactly the same thing if you were him (you legit run for hours in some games and "camp" base AA when you want to win) because you are super competitive, but when other people run or camp AA for a bit because they wanna try to win you complain and cry?
I try to fly away from the airfield AA whenever I can and I got plenty of videos that back this up.
I don't have a problem with extending either unless it's someone that runs to run and never tries to engage anyone.
From a content perspective (which comes secondary to me) camping AA looks horrible and winning a fight that you should've lost is something that is worth showing most of the time.
I don't have a reason to camp a base, I want to win yes. But winning like that is just losing with a reward to me.
Have I never flown to AA for cover? of course I have, everyone has at some point weather its on purpose or not.
Ok.

i have encountered defyn a few times in AIR RB and in those few matches i have encountered him in.....not once did he intentionally use base aa as support. yes it might be annoying to listen to a YT complain about base camping but due keep in mind that defyn is a very long time veteran of the game who would easily get annoyed by those who refuse to fight but instead just run back to base.
btw defyn great vid as always my dude keep it up(also btw i have the p38k myself and despite playing only a handful of games in it i absolutely love it...just wish allied teams at that br arent such trash)
You have allot of advantages over newer players. You almost always have a known factor in squad. You know almost every capability of almost every plane. Even if you do not know squad mate it is somewhat likely they know and respect who you are and so are willing to do things for you they would not normally do to some unknown player.
Complaining about lingering near AAA in your position is pretty pathetic really. Unless you were one of the first people on to play this game you at one point did some "yes in your own way" abuse of AAA positions just to get to where you are today. I like all your videos but the complaint about the not so good players camping near airfield is akin to a rich person complaining about a poor person doing the exact same thing they did to get rich.
this isnt a dogfight nor an energy fight youre just trying to bnz him, failing and then repeating this is the scummiest gameplay
