A rare treat to see Spookston play the Brits, even if it's only the meme vehicles! AVRE is definitely worth it when on sale. Btw the Tortoise could be a good idea for a video (6.7 Britain same as the FV4005) it's one of my favs and basically a meme with its great armour and decent gun, plus it just looks hilarious trundling across the battlefield.
6.7 Britain is so meme-y lol. I don't play it super often, as I'm trying to finish grinding out the monster of tanks at 8.0 and 8.3, but having the doom barn, armor wall, and Battlebus with an ATGM is pretty fun
If you don't want to aim, I recommend playing the FV4004 *Conway* which is very much a railgun at it's BR. You can also use it in the same lineup as the FV4005 and the AVRE, so that's a plus. And while the APDS might be offputting, the sheer size and velocity of the round combined with a surprisingly survivable front-mounted turret means you more than not get one-shots off quite easily.
Conway is definitely underrated. The gun has crazy pen and the front of the turret has troll-y armour which people usually don't know how to penetrate.
@@chanchito4401 Most assume the turret armour is as thin as that of the FV4005 and go close to the breech, but that armour is more than 140/270mm thick, and is enough for you to usually get a shot off before the enemy can adjust. The fact that the turret can spin a full +/-180 is also great because it makes the Conway more flexible compared to its later brother.
How do you feel about the Churchill AVRE and the StuG IV being in the game? A StuG with a pigsnout mantel and 360 degree roof mounted mg would be awesome and another low tier besh launcher aswell
I woudk rather have the stug iii g late production than the stug iv. It has the pigsnout mattlet and remote machinegun. But it also has a co-axe mg and was built in larger numbers.
@@matthiuskoenig3378 I personally would like both maybe folder the StuG IV. Rarity of a vehicle should not determine its presence in war thunder as there's plenty of unique one offs and rare tanks, Sturer Emil, the Super Pershing, half the American heavy line, Jagdtiger, and Jagdpanther just to name a few.
@@blu5021 I recommend using the rangefinder and distance control things, I set the distance control up exclusively for a better time with the AVRE and it helps sooooo much
I take it Spookston that you aren't in the habit of doing the Kool-Aid Man through walls and buildings. That is one of the best things about driving tanks. I would like it if Gaijin got around to making all buildings, on every map, destructible.
YES my friend and I do the HESH lineup from time to time for fun as well, the Conway is also really good for this lineup though it requires a little more finesse
I just found your channel and im really liking it. Its very realistic as in you sound like you are in a constant state of depression which is very real for Warthunder.
I once had a shell from the FV4005 pass through the engine of an enemy tank and exit the other side. It exploded on the wall right next to the tank and dealt no damage. Needless to say I don't play this game anymore.
The only bad thing about these vehicles: it has made people think that HESH shells are valid anti-tank rounds even for modern use, when they are absolutely NOT. It's like really really shitty HEAT as computer models repeatedly show, and it's just barely more effective than plain HE shells. These HESH shells don't work because they're HESH, they work because it's a bomb the size of a small child. APFSDS and modern HEAT are immensely better in every way, just keep that in mind about reality.
Um no, the brits do not think hesh is valid anti-tank for modern use. They use it for anti-structure work, and light vehicles. And they haven't considered hesh an effective anti-tank round since atleast the fmbt project (which the British half chose the rifled gun because of apds being more reliable and accurate at the time than apfsds) hesh slinging was just a useful side effect. Ofcaurse fmbt failed, and new generation apfsds was proven better than new generation apds. the British still ended up with rifled guns because it was cheaper to just get apfsds ammunition. For the l11 than get a new gun And ammo. Hesh was just a useful side affect once again (for structures). The challenger 2 got a l30 rifles gun because of plans for keeping upgraded challaneger 1s and chieftains in service with the l30 due to cold War needs. And these tanks needed multiparty ammunition and multi-part rifled guns ahd already been half developed earlier for another project. When the cold War ended and this plan was obsolete they had already spent the money/etc. Hesh was just a happy side effect. The Americans still love useing hep/hesh on their 105mm guns. Like in the stryker and probably in their new mpf.
HESH is not trying to be an anti tank round, it may have been part of the original plan but times change, the strengths of HESH show when its used against buildings, light/logistics vehicles, personel or IFV/APCs. It is basically a superior HE round for most purposes and is used as such in modern combat. For example if you had a 120mm L44 cannon firing APFSDS at a BMP 2 you have a somewhat unlikely chance (within context) of hitting something important inside due to the lack of armour to create spalling, the penetrator being completely inert plus it being a sub-calibre round. Whereas if you shot a 120mm HE or HESH round from the same gun, at the same BMP 2 you are almost certainly going to either make the vehicle completely combat ineffective or at the very least cause significant structural damage, more than an APFSDS or HEAT round (against that specific type of threat). One thing I will say is that I completely agree that HESH has minimal effect against modern tanks, at least frontally and 99% of the time it would be better to use APFSDS or HEAT although HESH would still happily destroy optics and damage engines/tracks or anything else external
The entirety of my time in War Thunder, after having picked the UK tree on a whim, was spent in pursuit of the FV4005, which among my friend group had been dubbed the "Long Boi". Once I unlocked it I put the game down and haven't touched it since.
@@Erenzilable it is, yeah. It's a shame, I think WT is so close to being a fantastic game in so many ways, but the awful progression ruins it. I always recommend people play a tree until the grind starts to make it unfun, then switch to a new tree. Early tiers are honestly the most fun a lot of the time anyway. Here's some advice: if you haven't, try playing with the Crusader III. Absolutely the most fun I've had in this game- fast as hell, maneuverable enough to drift like a rally car, and it gets FIFTY smoke grenades for some reason.
So I commented basically this same thing on the last video too, but if you enjoyed these things, you’ll probably enjoy the Lorraine 155. It’s gotten really quite fun with the addition of overpressure. The 20mm on top can be used as a sort of ranging gun if you have a binding set up for controlling individual machine guns, though it’s a bit of a lengthy process; you swap to MG control, range dial and fire the 20 until your shots are on target, note the range that it’s set to, then switch back to the howitzer and set its range to whatever the 20 was at.
You should play the Ariete to see how bad it really is or isn't. It's a decent tank until it gets shot it, where it becomes worse than every other MBT's, so it's in a weird spot and I'd like to see your opinion on it.
this video was recommended to me, By TH-cam, the same week after the Real FV4005 was Restored and was seen Running at Bovington Tank fest, at The Tank Museum. Love your videos, Spookston - Keep it up !
Tbh the FV4005 has decent velocity. Also the AVRE has either the second or third slowest shell velocity, I'm pretty sure the Brumbar's rounds are slower than it's at the very least.
I was really thinking about buying the AVRE and the roikat cause they look super fun but I just missed the sale, I think I'll get them for the winter sale just feel kinda bad spending more than the $60 I already have on this game
It funny that he has many thousands of hours and doesn't know that if you engage the tow line on a dead tank it puts them in neutral and make them easier to push.
I saw that *EXACT* FV4005 paint job today playing War Thunder in my own FV4005. I did not see much of what they did in the match, due to getting eliminated early by a Hellcat.
I almost never see any War Thunder content creators play swedish vehicles, so that would be cool if you did. Maybe the spj fm/43-44, thats a really fun vehicle
Great video it great just watch the shell how it kill target regardless if it heavy tank or light one. Tip for the next video: how about american 6-barrel beast m50?
HESH explained basically as I can from what a tank gunner told me at a recruitment drive in town. The shell isn't intended to destroy a tank, like blow it up component and ammo wise but BASICALLY send fragments of the interior hull at the impact into the crew injuring or killing them and I don't know if that's true or not, but I hope it is because the British designing a shell that does that specifically over just killing the tank makes me laugh. because I just imagine a tennis ball on the end of a explosive.
And the Shite-Barn rides.. (ahem) okay crawls again. Fun fact, the 165mm demolition gun M-135 on both British and American ARV's penetration capabilities was top-secret for decades. And even thought the US pulled all of their M728 CEV's, the guns were removed and placed into reserve stocks just in case.
Now take it to Arcade and you don't even have to aim while bonking tanks over hills with the aim marker! :)
I hate Hesh since I’m not using it

Man it's Truly impressive that you mastered Guns with Such Low velocity 😃
15CM german tank destroyers would like to have a word
@@meerbee2910 I agree I am master of that tonk
Tbh the FV4005 has decent velocity.
Also the AVRE has either the second or third slowest shell velocity, I'm pretty sure the Brumbar's rounds are slower than it's at the very least.
@@Geniusinventor but are you ready for the Sturmtiger? (If the snail plan on bringing it to the pain thunder)
@@Haaton-of-the-Basement I am ready to kill a Bt-7 and wait 5 minutes to gun to reload
Just got my first nuke ever using the AVRE and it was amazing. Though a at some point, a Marder's front plate BOUNCED my hesh round.... Yeah...
I was really thinking about buying the AVRE and the roikat cause they look super fun but I just missed the sale, I think I'll get them for the winter sale just feel kinda bad spending more than the $60 I already have on this game
The demolition set: Fv4005, Centurion Mk5 AVRE, G6, Wellington (4000lbs bomb attached to 2 engines). Optional: Conway (HESH only)
You can fit some other tanks in the game inside that turret
Meanwhile over at World of Tanks:
"This baby is the FV 215b (183)"
"Well, that was anticlimactic. There was no explosion, he just kinda... stopped living"
Hey Spook, you can run into those same buildings at 5:55 with a T114 and knock them down. Its fun to hid in there with it.
That Eland should have been moved straight to their spawn, in the next match
It funny that he has many thousands of hours and doesn't know that if you engage the tow line on a dead tank it puts them in neutral and make them easier to push.
You should play the T54e1, that thing has a 5 sec autoloader which can fire both heat and apds which are pretty accurate
Need an update video to this, seems they nerfed the Hesh round rear and side shots result in nothing now
The fact the biggest ground forces gun is 6.7

Top 10 villain quotes of all times
I saw that *EXACT* FV4005 paint job today playing War Thunder in my own FV4005.
I did not see much of what they did in the match, due to getting eliminated early by a Hellcat.
It’s always fun to see light vehicles being vaporized by massive HE something something.
I just bought the AVRE in the summer sale. Best money I ever spent, that thing is so fun
Honestly to this day, the lack of parts and FPE stock is my biggest complaint about this game.
I almost never see any War Thunder content creators play swedish vehicles, so that would be cool if you did. Maybe the spj fm/43-44, thats a really fun vehicle
I know you don’t play aircraft, but maybe the XP-55 in ground rb? The 20s can pen a lot top down.
Oh, the shovel can make moving the dead bodies easier. Got it.
Great video it great just watch the shell how it kill target regardless if it heavy tank or light one. Tip for the next video: how about american 6-barrel beast m50?
I FUCKING NEED THE ORIGONAL CLIP TO THE MEME AT THE START OF THE VIDEO THAT SHIT HAD ME DYING LMAO
How did you get this cool gunner sight (the binoculars)? Like your Videos and if someone Else Know please Tell me
HESH will normally go through light cover (like fences) without detonating
If you yellow mark/ mark for squad the target you can use it as a reference for shooting over hills
HESH explained basically as I can from what a tank gunner told me at a recruitment drive in town.
The shell isn't intended to destroy a tank, like blow it up component and ammo wise but BASICALLY send fragments of the interior hull at the impact into the crew injuring or killing them and I don't know if that's true or not, but I hope it is because the British designing a shell that does that specifically over just killing the tank makes me laugh.
because I just imagine a tennis ball on the end of a explosive.
Does the Conways 120mm HESH work in this scenario?
Man really forgot about the Conway…cmon man…don’t do the other Besh boi dirty like that
even spaded, the hesh barn is an upsetting vehicle to play.
The USA Faction music from Zero Hour is next level.
Maus: I fear no man,
But those things
A squad of four avres
Maus: they scare me
It was fun to watch. Get some sleep tho, You sound like You really need it 🤔
And the Shite-Barn rides.. (ahem) okay crawls again. Fun fact, the 165mm demolition gun M-135 on both British and American ARV's penetration capabilities was top-secret for decades. And even thought the US pulled all of their M728 CEV's, the guns were removed and placed into reserve stocks just in case.
That was fun to watch 🙌🏻 thanks for sharing
The mortar function was really cool.
