Am I maybe a little biased because the F-4 Phantom is one of my favorite aircraft? Yes. Am I wrong though? I don't think so.

When that F-8E dodged that missile I was blown away at the amount of player skill required for that! I could never reach his war thunder potential and he is now my hero
Quick question: Did you get your PFP just online somewhere, or did you crop the Single cover for a song by Trip Lee called “You Got It”? I like that picture of the MiG-19 a lot, but I’m not sure where the origin is. Also, that was a very funny fan interaction, but dodging all the way up to 25g missiles is possible with the jets that have good flight performance as long as the pilot knows what they’re doing and times their movements well.
@@kommandantkillcode well the crusaders wing rip kinda easy, so he def got some skill. in my f5e tho, i can dodge practically anything
2:15 That tornado really tried to BVR you with antiship missiles 🤣
Don’t you know the German Fox 3 gameplay is so strong
Another thing that gets overlooked about the F-4E is it’s combat flaps. They will never rip, in fact they will make the F-4E rip proof in most maneuvers. And the best thing about them is that they boost the F-4Es MER substantially at the cost of snap AOA turning ability. So when making normal 180 degree turn having the combat flaps out will result in very minimal speed loss in the F-4E.
There was only one a6e who i saw use chaff, the rest tries to flare my radar missiles🤦♂️
Must be nice having a plane with radar missiles💀
Great video as always Perennial, it's always nice to see content on the F-4's, they're amazing planes.
The f4E is a lot better in a dogfight than most people realize too
@@norske_ow3440 It is, and I just love the Phantoms, my first aircraft miniature model was an F-4E alongside a Mirage III, two aircraft that I admire very much to this day.
Seeing the speed and altitude measurements, the crosshair, and everything else change 35 times in the video is too funny
I felt called out at 5:53, you did us players dirty there. Masterful dodge from that F8E, must have been a super skilled player.
I find that nobody runs chaff currently because of rank 7 premiums, a lot of new players dont understand how to chaff properly.
That and PD makes chaff a lot harder to use, so a lot of the time people just dont run it in favour of getting more flares for IR missiles (which is especially usefull when 9L's and R24's are around)
@@perennialE so do I tbh, pre chaffing is very useful in a lot of fights even with PD
Great dodge on the f8
hey thanks man i ended up killing the entire enemy team after that missile misses me, also i dont use chaff on f8e because i can just notch pd radars
@@perennialE If you only need 12 flares, then may I interest you in the MiG-23M? Lol
What does mean chaff please? I can't translate it into my language properly...
A lot of the issues with the F-4E's radar would be fix if they simply just properly added in it's sensors and the sensor fusion capability it had.
The TISEO system allowed a camera to lock onto a target and you could slave the radar to the TISEO and vice versa. You didn't need necessarily a lock as long as you could illuminate the target, and this us how a lot of F-4Es operated in ground clutter heavy environments in the 80's.
This makes it where there is actually a limited look down capability as long as the TISEO actually could see the target.
Gaijin has failed to actually add this, and when I mentioned and made a historical report about this to the Tech Mod. He wouldn't read past my first point.
Told me "CAA doesn't offer any Look down Capabilities" and linked me to a post where the guy he quoted stated "The computer system offered actually helped reduce the effects of ground clutter"
So in a post to prove me wrong, he linked me to a post as a source that basically said I was right. Biased tech mods at it again.
At 11.0 it will still see all the top tier at 12.0 in an uptier.
And Aim9E are not good missiles lol. 10g pull is god awful and if they are doing anything other than flying SLOWLY in a straight line, the 9E will miss every time. All they have to do is pull slightly and the missile is done, popping flares is just overkill for them.
@@SPFLDAngler that is why it has a 9J/G upgrade
Man I love when vehicles are better than base nation tech tree
Not meta, but a solid choice, I do enjoy the EJ KAI
@@perennialE I’ve got my Israeli F-16 fully kitted out with flare/chaff and all 6 9Ls and my F4-J(UK) premium would still slap it with Aim 9Gs and Sparrows all day.
In about 3 sentences you gave a better description of CW than 3 form threads and a infographic I found. lol gg
have been playing war thunder for 2 years did not know that chaff counters radar guided Aim-7 Missiles thank you very much
Not really. CW seeker in more advanced radar missiles can ignore chaff and go after moving target as long as it remains illuminated by radar. For chaff to work properly, you'd need to chaff, so radar locks onto it and then get as far as possible from it from attacker perspective, to get out of illuminated area
This video is fantastic. It's nice for players like me who are behind the meta to see what planes we have access to can do.
I'll bet there's a whole market for this.
Great work.
I never bring chaff. I'm on the deck 100% of the time. Radar missiles can't track when you are taking monkeys out all day. It works very nicely and staying fast.
Nice video, I was in one of your games while you were playing the f4e
05:47 WOW! That's a Norm McDonald moment there 😂
you make it look so easy, I just getting my pp slapped using the American f4e despite using the same tactics because my radar never locks
because he's using the Israeli F-4E that has AIM7F (long range) and aim9G (30g rear aspect aim9l since the addition of f16 instead of 16G when it was added and 18g when av8 went from 9.3 to 9.7)
Perennial E is the classic offshot of Spit Flyer that will tell you a plane is good when it's not and that a plane is bad when it's not. He says the F16ADF is bad while having no clue how to play it, and he says the F-4E is good while using a KURNASS (not the 2000) which has totally different armament while if you check his statistics, he is borderline 1:1 in every vehicle that is slightly off meta while having killed over 3000 bots. His stats on F-4E are far worse than on the Kurnass Early because the F-4E has melee weapons in a long range doppler meta.
What you said about armament is irrelevant, Wumbo was talking about the F4E radar being dogshit and never locking anything. Doesn't matter what missiles you have when you can't lock them onto anything to begin with. The US F4E and the Kurnass have the same radar.@@kingghidorah8106
That Takkud guy spaming flare for dear life LOL.
5:58 because I find myself brawling on deck most of the time in the Phantom FG1. 4th gen PD radars are dummy strong anyway so I'd rather hug the deck and notch when I need to rather than drop half of my flares when I'm getting IR missiles spammed at me. I do definitely bring chaff in the harrier though.
this channel is bad clickbait. He says the F-4E is still good showing an American F-4E but he plays an Israeli F-4E which has aim9G which, except up close, pull as much as aim9J and have twice the range, giving you the opportunity to kill people off spot range.
Secondly, there's a lot of times where i get my radar chaffed and the aim7 still hits the target.
Subbed. For some reason this video gave me the ‘aha’ realization that I enjoy your content. ..even if the girlfriend comment hurt a little..
Saying everyone should always bring chaff to top tier and then proceeding to not run it 50% of the clips, great humor dude
I was excited to get my first Phantom in the American tech tree, until I saw that it doesn't come with ANY countermeasures lol
2:25 why you should bring chaff at top tier. has 90 flares
@@perennialE i never knew that thanks for telling me
not sure if you mentioned this in the video because im half asleep but if you keep the radar within 15 degrees of your target, even after chaff breaks radar lock the dogfight sparrows still guide in. just dont change lock
problem is that chaffs are pretty much useless against top tier radars
it still sees 4th generation monsters :)
When was the F-4E not.... lol great video.
Nice to know that the plane I'm grinding towards in the US tree isn't garbage
Bruh I get kills with the dogfight sparrows even if they chaff or I lose lock even they are instakill and I love it
God I’m so glad they moved the brs up to 12 I might start grinding hard again
I think they changed chaff recently because its a little better now. Still never run it without the ability to spit countermeasure choice and with how good ir missiles have been recently reinforced flares the only way to go in a hot plane.
Bro thanks I just got the f4e in the US tech tree
This phantom catches me off guard in my viggen a lot
Had one last night give me one hell of a fight in my viggen. Finally ended with both of us rtb for fuel lol
@@norske_ow3440 you love to see it see I’m usually to stoned I eventually fuck up later in the pro longed dog fights
@@bradentucker4854 haha it's honestly just human nature, the longer anyone is in a dogfight the more likely they are to make mistakes
I always practice my aim so if I get in a dogfight with a viggen I can always kill them in at least the first 2 turns
@@chukuma4760 not me I usually figure it out on the last 50 bullets
I have all the Israeli jets. It was my first tech tree I finished fully
The f4 is my favorite aircraft but no way in hell am I spading it, last time I tried i was forced into a dogfight with 2 m2000s and broke my mouse, I'd prefer to fly it in dcs where I won't get immediately pussed off
You can't chaff these missiles, it must be pre chaffed
In my experience the American F4Es radar takes forever to get a lock or the lock doesn't last. Is that normal?
or you can't get a lock in the first place in order to lose it lol. Radar never works for me on that plane but MiG 21 works just fine
The reason why F4E was ditched from service was not because it was bad or obsolete, but because it was too expensive to maintain.
@@perennialE it would still make a great interception platform if they updated the design and avionics
@@kingghidorah8106 that's what the haf did with the f4e aup, also turkey with the terminator 2020
@@perennialE then this video is summed up as: F-4E is fantastic at dealing with retards with 1 hour of top tier experience, because its pretty much what you showcase.
the reason people dont bring chaffs at toptier, is because there is a LOT of IR missiles and not so much flares overall (and personally for me, chaffs just do not work, idk why)
Thats because chaff is not very effective if at all against high tier pulse doppler radars
Very underrated vehicle. Nice opening clip btw
the audio sounds like it was recorded in a toilet paper roll
Hey man what is your opinion on Scottish Kuala and if you want a good video that goes into detail, watch Seeker Heads video on the matter.
Would you say the FGR.2/FG.1 is still a viable top tier?
@@perennialE Ok thank you
what about f4-j?
Doesn't have agile eagle so it does not turn nearly as well.
Having 10 missiles and helmet display is realy nice though.
Wait so my sky flash on the viggen is still locked on the enemy while I lock onto his chaff
Im not gonna at first when i saw this video i was like no that thing sucks but i went and tried my f4e in u.s tree and it was actually fun the aim7e2's are tracking and the new br changes make it a very fun plane
he dodged that missile epicly
how does chaff even works against radar missles? they seem to not work for me tho
i have more fun on the F4E than all F16s
LOWER GLIZZY
No, no it's not. It gets slapped by all the SARHs it meets becauae it will often see 12.0 or at least 11.7.
This vid made me want the f4e even more lmao. I need like 590k sl to buy 1 last jet to be able to research the f4e.... i got like 20k sl
I don't know how he made it look any good in this video, at least where the radar is concerned. That radar will just never lock anything up in my experience, unlike the MiG 21 which I get plenty of radar kills with. Which is strange because I am pretty sure that on paper the MiG 21 radar is much worse.
About the chaff thing I don't get it etheir as in all the other Flight games and sims you just have Chaf/Flares and might have the option of two separate buttons... Also the Phantom is low key my favoite plane to run in flight games and sims as it mesh's perfectly with my plot style no matter the context... Like I know itt so well after 2 dacades of flight games/sim that I just have a lower learning curve with it... Like even i Ace combat 7 I could not do as good in the ADF-Falken a super plane and ultimate dogfighter as I could in the Phantom F-4E even with it being Pre-order DLC because it's old old now... And in DCS the F4 mod is my favorite thing to fight in dispite I could use the F-22. So Yeah I can't waitt to use one in War thunder although the pitching up thing wth controller is anoying.
chaff doesnt tend to work
@@SLAYERxX420 oh it definitely does if used properly. If you pre-chaff, no way he is launching at you. If you go 90° to the missile and chaff, it also works. If you go cold and chaff, it works once more. You just need to use it properly, because it doesn't work the same way flares do.
Una pregunta como puedo poner el radar ese cuadrado solo me sale el triangular
All f4 are good
I gotta disagree with the TWR , many planes have a positive twr with a dogfight set
@@perennialE aircraft empty weight to engine power, then you include fuel weight, but fuel burns so you become lighter with time.
oh wonder…battle rating changed….changed performance
fun fact, the f4 has enough thrust to fly with the drogue shoot out
Noted
update the Draken can do this too
the 1st one wasn't pulse doppler, rather SRC because pulse doppler is unchaffable right?
It's chaffable, if you notch as well. Dumping chaff does nothing against PD radar unless you go 90 degrees to it
@@perennialE oh i see thanks
Do you know what famunda cheese is?
What do you do in the f4e when u take off what should I climb to
@@perennialE okay thanks. Do you side climb or go stay on
Man I still get salt from people who don't know how BVR works and complain in chat with "YoU ChEAT HoW dID yOU hiT mE AT 30Km wiTh InVISIbLe MisSILe??!!!". Man I was at 40,000ft I can hit you at 40km lol.
nice video
thanks for showing me dodge the missile and kill the entire team :)
is american f4e much worse than israeli?
.86 isn’t anywhere near even top 10 for T/W ratio in the game OR top tier
Ah yes the crazy .86 twr
Can I only run chaff or do I have to have a mix?
Could this also apply to the British Phantoms or are they outclassed?
They should be as good, if not better, than F4E
Plane
i just realized now
why do you put an F-4E on the thumbnail but play an Israeli F-4E instead? AIM9G are much better than aim9J, as they pull the same while having thrice the range. Bad click bait my friend.
me and my gf play together, killed her one time and she took revenge in the next match lmao
6:32 hahaha
USAF F4E getting 9Ls/9Ms when gayjoobles? xd
It carried 9Ls, the F-4G carried 9Ms
Everything you face is better than you in every way imaginable
Gaijan fix your game
Finally some one that still thinks the f4e is good
Sounds like you recorded the game audio straight from the speaker in a public bathroom.
The Virgin:"Waaah! F-4 cannot 1v1 every plane in the game! Is flying brick, has no maneuverability! No PD = bad!"
The Gigachad: "The Phox-4 Phantom is a poor-mans eagle, being held back from it's full potential by Gaijins 'balanc' department, lest it make their fancy new 4th gens feel inferior."
Frrr 💀
no its not.
This video is a lie
Everything other than germany, is good
