All 6 Phoenixes hitting - F-14A War Thunder flamethorn77 2022-10-03 | Don't climb when F-14s are around. You might just run into someone that knows how to use Phoenixes.Proof of all 6 hits: imgur.com/7ogtmrgYeah this is the laziest way I could come up with to grind points for the event, and I'm not even going to pretend this took any skill outside of memorizing launch parameters and keybinds. Brain-off gameplay ftw.
Missile-only Ace w/ F-14A (War Thunder) - The Low Effort Grind^tm flamethorn77 2022-09-17 | Love EC maps so I can get the speed to pull off these launches.AIM-54As do have a use, just gotta get a large-enough map to do so. Other, less impressive Phoenix salvos:youtu.be/5rT22DwY3e8

Yae Sakura embodies the spirit of low-effort gameplay. flamethorn77 2022-02-24 | Sub-optimal build with sub-optimal lineup? No desire to learn the move patterns of enemies? Can't be bothered to time your dodges properly? This is the perfect character for you to snooze through almost every single engagement!Honestly she's pretty fun. Also fluffy tail.

WT - Testing stable thrust-vectored IR AAMs. flamethorn77 2020-12-07 | (reupload due to a few encoding quality issues)I figured out why missiles are so wobbly in WT and went out to fix it (test fly literally any jet with an Aim-9B and follow the missile with ordnance camera to see for yourself, will upload example video of that later if they ever fix that)TL;DR Gaijin set the center of mass too far from the stabilizer (think levers/see saw), and said stabilizer is for some reason constantly rotating while in flight. Combine both effects and you got a missile that will struggle to fly without spiraling towards their target. Will put in more technical description of what I did later.Music used: 3-09 Hypermnesia by -naotyu in album D15Final frame for those wondering why a Tom & Jerry scream effect was at the end: cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/358008417371291648/785349424171581450/unknown.pngrelated video for testing material: youtube.com/watch?v=p50rT0d8FVcadditional related video of stress-testing the missile to the max:youtu.be/phtAg85r7-s

Tu-95MX Missile Sled Bear testing in War Thunder flamethorn77 2020-09-10 | Y'all ever wondered about those poor souls in all of Ace Combat's Tu-95s? The ones that always serve as an introductory punching bag for the player to demolish with a hail of gunfire and missiles?Did you ever wonder what they dreamed of every night?Well, this is it. The ultimate missile sled.

Testing marginally cursed Aim-7M in WT flamethorn77 2020-09-07 | This was originally a test to create a more reliable Aim-7E given its MANY reliability issues and broken mechanics behind it, but it turns out that attempting to improve on the guidance will allow it to ascend to something truly terrifying. I ended up just sticking on a sustain rocket motor phase to it for added giggles and test it on some AI F-4C, hence this video.

Sidewinder buff (Aim-9B example 1.98 DEV-1) flamethorn77 2020-05-17 | Aim-9B had fin-AoA parameters in its missile FM doubled from 0.08 to 0.16 on Dev 1 of Patch 1.98 in War Thunder, allowing it to pull as well as an Aim-9J at subsonic speeds before reaching its 10G limit.

WT Naval Forces: First-stage ammo penalty flamethorn77 2019-05-26 | TL;DR in 1.89 Gaijin added a new mechanic that heavily kills your reload speed if you run out of first-stage ammo, which is extremely problematic when you consider some ships only have a few salvos before they hit this penalty.
Who needs a FCS anyhow flamethorn77 2019-03-31 | 10/10 good FM would fly again. Confirming that disabling FCS enables thrust vectoring on the F-18CSkip to 3:36 for combat usage without a FCS/s
IL-2 Tank Crew: IL-2 skeet shooting with an 88 flamethorn77 2018-12-27 | So I decided to shoot some airborne IL-2s with 88mm HE shells (HE, not APHE) after seeing how Patch 3.008 buffed aircraft DMs to hilarious levels. Turns out, the buff was so extreme that direct 88 hits to the wing-root won't even crack the wing (whereas before the wing would blow off the plane). I guess the IL-2 truly was a flying tank after-all.
