The Type of Aircraft and Tanks

These are helpful decriptions and scenario of aircraft and tanks.

Aircraft

Fighter/ Navel Fighter

The type of aircraft that is alot of peoples favorite. But sometimes we don't know how to use them. Te best part apart a fighter is best in combat, just don't overload. This list below shows what you should do in that scenario.

  1. If you are being chased by an enemy aircraft at high or low altitude you must do a sick maneuver that screws the enemy over to allow the rounds of the aircraft to miss you. Sometimes when the in arcade when ythey reload you need to slow down your speed so the aircraft go past you, only than can you have you your chance to shoot your target.
  2. When you have a enemy aircraft or enemies trying to intersept you, you DO NOT GO their direction. You'll realize that that you made a bad mistake when you your aircraft gets shot down. You go make a big turn and than pull up. The aircraft speed will overstoot their target most of the time diving. This is your chance to go from behind of your target and try to aim ahead of your target and not at it.
  3. If you go aginest a fighter head on your making the wrong mistake because its either you, the enemy pilot, or both of you. Even though your going to head in a head on attack this is what you need to do. As you try to attack player you start firing at 1.38km. At 0.98km, you pull out of the head on attack. Try to making a turn using your landing flaps and attack the player at a good angle.

Attacker/Navel bomber

This is the type of the aircraft is only good for ground forces and ships but you might fool yourself that they have shot down some aircraft. Somethimes your just really lucky that you shot down an aircraft. Well, these are tips that you will possibly use in battle.

  1. If you were intersepted by a fighter aircraft this is what you need to do. Make a dive than pull all the way up. I the fighter aircraft were to use its landing flaps, lose all power to where you will stall. The enemy might think he got you on his sights but than, you use your flaps to flip the aircraft. At this same momet you need to start your engine again as your aircraft falls. If your experineced enthough that try shooting the fighter but you might hit the gastank or pilot to take the fighter aircraft out.
  2. Your almost to your target and you see 4 A6M3's getting ready to attack your squadran. Your are a SBD-C dive bomber. To avoid for your aircraft being destoryed you arm your gunner. As they the A6M3's start attacking you attack with a 2-4 second burst in front of the aircraft in its direction. The A6M3 is made from cloth which was one of the disadvantages.

Bomber

Not all the time dowe give alot of credit to the bombers because of how easily can those bombers be shot down. Some are givin special names like, "fying fortress". Still we see today bombers still standing from a war over 70 years ago. You might as well figure out, how did they live in a bomber that could be shot all to pieces and still live. Theses are tips based on actucal ww2 bomber training.

  1. Everyone on a bomber has a job to do. You are a belly gunner of a B-17 Flying Fortress and your in a bomber group. You see a formation of bf-109f-3's coming your direction. THe one thing you must learn albout bf-109's is that they have a that the noise of the aircraft has a cannon that can really puch a hole. Aim the gun in front of the aircraft. Warthunder gunners can be very unlucky.

Tanks

light tank

If you don't know already this is what all nations started their tanks with. Easy to work on, small, and easy to produce in a factory. Sometimes we can hate this type bcause of the armor and the small turret, but this is what we have to start on. Theses are tips in your going to end up in this position. This could also happen in real life.

  1. If your in a city like berlin, than you really got to keep your quard up of your tank will be destroied. The first thing youn need to stay with a small group of tanks or go in the direction with not that much building streets. This will make the player think twice before attacking you.
  2. Your in a battlefeild that includes a feild that has some cover, most of those positions are taken by enemy tanks this is what you need do. Get cover as much as possisible. The good thing about light taks is that most of them are fast. By doing this tactic you should be able to fly past them.

Medium tank

Alot of people know that the medium tank is mainly used for the main battle tank. Ever since World War II, medium tanks have been the there for gerations to come. Massed produced, easy for repair, and easy to transport. Not all the time do we want to hear tips because its the same as the ligt tank tactics, well, your right. There are still stuff to go over the tank when heading in to combat.

  1. When your in a battlefeild that has some small hill and feild of tanks. Their destorying your allied tanks as you start moving into point A. This is what you need to do, se your binoculers and scout the area to see whare you can find the enemy tanks. Sometimes the camoflage can really fool you. You just got to really look for the tanks. A really good idea is to want for them to move out of their position and only than can you fire at the tank. Try to aim ahead of the tank, do to your turret you will be able to penatrate the armor of the tank and knock out the crew. Just, find your right angle and timing.

Heavy Tank

This type of tank is what I call, an acuall tank. I say that because if your in a Kv-1b, rounds from a medium tank will bounce off your armor. Then, we have that one part of our mind that think the tanks a heavy it can go through anything, than the tank gets destory by a tank destoryer. Well, these are ways to do in your in the wrong position.

go goggoogog
  1. Your charging into the "Battle of Kursk". With a KV-1 and your track gets destoryed by a panzer IV F-2. This is what you need to do. Who cares about the track until you can move the body of your tank to show its front. But then, the Panzer IV fires a shell at your front armor. But the shell riochad off the front armor. Now its your turn to fire and as you fire another tank steals your kill.

Tank Destoryer

I gotta say, Some of the unlucky T-95's get just amazing kills ingame. Just complete armor in the front but on on the sides mostly. These are ways not to get destroyed that easy.

  1. Your in a T-95 and there are 2 King Tigers and both on the side getting ready to destroy your tank. If your in a city move out of the way and do a 360. As the tanks approch you at that street your in destroy the tank and slowly back up. as your reloading the king tiger has fired a shell and has efected your track. You fire destroying the tank.

I was going to talk about the others but some types expalin the some amount of information. For entance the light fighter the dive bomber, or a jet fighter they all follow the same pattern. I also didn't want to michin about the SPAA because thers just not that much to talk about.

I would want to give credit to the picture of a Tiger 1 to flickr.com by a guy named Stenfan02
