Hello everybody, and welcome back to another episode of War Thunder.
00:04
As you can see here, we're on the dev server, version 1.45.6.0.
00:11
It's only a basic dev server.
00:14
As you can see, we've got a wintry background, we've got the Christmas trees.
00:19
It's obviously Christmas coming up.
00:21
Not much else has really changed here.
00:24
Of course, each nation has, at the moment, one new aircraft each, or updated as well.
00:31
Now, the first one is the Americans, the F2H2 Banshee.
00:36
There it is.
00:38
See, it's a naval jet.
00:40
It's got these external fuel tanks that, I think for a jet, are sellable in real life.
00:45
I don't know if that would be like that in game.
00:47
Twin engines, four 20mm cannons.
00:52
Now, stat card, which is quite unreliable, but it's the only thing I have to go on at the moment.
00:58
600 miles per hour max speed.
01:01
1,500 metres.
01:03
12,500 metres max altitude.
01:06
Turn time of 25 seconds, 26 seconds really.
01:10
And a rate of climb of 30 metres a second.
01:14
Now, if we go here, we notice something quite odd.
01:19
It can carry bombs, up to 1,000 pound bombs, and rockets, but you can't actually select any.
01:25
So, I don't know how that's going to work.
01:30
Yeah, sorry if I'm going a bit quick.
01:33
I haven't really got much time to record this, so I'm just going over the most important stuff.
01:38
Now, Germany hasn't got a new aircraft, to my knowledge.
01:42
What they do have is an updated version of the Arado.
01:47
Updated as in graphic-wise, I think.
01:50
As you can see, the cockpit's a lot more well done.
01:54
Engines look a bit more well done.
01:57
It just generally looks better.
01:59
I think they might have done some work to the tail here.
02:02
I've not particularly looked at the Arado before, so I haven't noticed all the changes.
02:08
Tires look more textured, which I suppose isn't that important.
02:13
So, yeah, Germany's got an updated Arado.
02:16
Now, moving on to the Russians.
02:19
We get the I-16 Type 10, the only one I haven't unlocked.
02:24
And, unfortunately, can't test-fly.
02:27
Well, no, I don't really think I'll get time to test-fly.
02:30
Is there any information? No.
02:32
I know the other two don't have information, because I tried recording this a minute ago,
02:36
and it didn't work out.
02:38
Mainly because I had to get rid of the mouse to do live recording and external hard drive,
02:43
and it's impossible to control and zoom at things.
02:48
Stat card, 286 mph at 4,400 metres.
02:53
Max altitude of 9,300.
02:56
Turn time, 16.5 seconds.
02:58
Rate of climb, 18.5.
03:01
Again, it may not be too accurate.
03:06
Can carry rockets, but again, doesn't give us the option.
03:12
RO-82, I think that's the 82 millimetres.
03:15
I'm going to go out on a limb and just guess the 82 means 82 millimetres.
03:21
Now, which one of these are we...
03:23
Yeah, this is the one we're looking for.
03:25
New Canberra.
03:27
Preview this.
03:30
Now, this is an interdictor version of the Canberra.
03:33
Has this got information? No.
03:37
Carry 1,000 pound bombs and...
03:40
Oh, here we are.
03:42
Wow, five 1,000 pound bombs. That's a lot.
03:45
I don't know if the normal one can carry that.
03:48
But it also gets four 20 millimetre Hispano cannons.
03:54
Oh, battle rating of 7.3.
03:57
The normal one's actually a really low battle rating at the moment.
04:02
I was wondering if they were going to keep that there.
04:05
They also seem to have...
04:08
It looks like a turret, but it doesn't mention a turret.
04:12
Is it meant to be a telescope or something?
04:14
Or telescopic sights?
04:16
Seems an odd way to do it.
04:19
Let's compare the stats, actually, between...
04:22
547, 547.
04:26
For max speed.
04:28
Turn time 26, turn time 26.
04:30
I think these are the same, more or less.
04:33
I'm checking the bomb loadout on the normal Canberra real quick.
04:37
Yeah, it can't... Oh, it has six 1,000 pound bombs.
04:40
Oh, so it does actually better.
04:42
I think this one has a bigger variety, though.
04:45
Because it can mix up with the 500 pound bombs.
04:52
So, that's quite good for Britain.
04:55
Has this one been changed battle rating?
04:58
Oh, it's been moved up to 7. That's good.
05:01
I've already seen a few of these in matches, just in B-24s.
05:04
And they're battle rating of 5.7.
05:07
So, even for me, this is quite good.
05:11
Now, the other aircraft.
05:13
It was a Ki-43-3i, or 3.
05:18
I'll quickly check this out.
05:21
It can carry up to two 250 kg bombs.
05:26
Let's have a look at it quick.
05:28
Oh, wrong button.
05:30
Oh, damn it.
05:32
Okay, it seems to have frozen up.
05:34
Nope, managed to fix it.
05:36
Free view.
05:39
Right, max speed 366 at 6,000 metres, more or less.
05:43
Max altitude at 11,000.
05:46
Turn time 16 seconds.
05:48
Rate of climb 21.5.
05:51
I wonder if two 20mm cannons...
05:54
Oh, I thought it was four for a second there.
05:56
It looks quite nice.
05:58
Two 20mm.
06:00
What else does that compare with?
06:02
Okay, thank you.
06:04
How does that compare with others?
06:07
Kind of worse than the Ki-61,
06:10
because that at least has two extra machine guns.
06:15
Frame rate's actually getting in the way a little bit.
06:18
Pretty sure that's four machine guns.
06:22
Yeah, four machine guns.
06:24
So, better than the 61...
06:26
Not quite as good as the Ki-61-HEI,
06:30
as far as, you know, my opinion.
06:33
Now, here's the other one, the J2M-3 Raiden.
06:37
Now, there was a bit of confusion which one we were going to get,
06:40
because apparently there was two.
06:42
We're getting the later one,
06:44
which has the four Type 99 Mk II.
06:48
The other one had two Type 99 Mk II
06:52
and two Mk I's, or something like that.
06:55
But again, 400 miles an hour.
07:00
Max speed at 5,300 metres.
07:03
Max altitude 12,000.
07:05
Turn time 19 seconds.
07:07
Rate of climb 13 seconds.
07:09
They actually mentioned this about a Schrade music,
07:12
the upward-firing guns on this,
07:14
but when they mentioned a variant like that,
07:16
they haven't added that variant in, from what I can see.
07:19
It doesn't seem to have that on it.
07:21
So, that's all the new planes so far.
07:27
Now, this is a test flight of the Ki-43EI,
07:31
just to test it quickly,
07:33
and to show you something quite interesting.
07:36
Wow, that was actually really quick to get off the ground.
07:39
So, two 20mm cannons.
07:42
But, more interesting...
07:45
X-ray.
07:47
Now, we've had this for tanks a little while.
07:51
It lets you look at the modules.
07:53
It's been in aircraft for a while,
07:55
because there was a bit of a glitch
07:57
where you could actually activate it
07:59
when you weren't meant to,
08:01
and it was quickly patched,
08:03
but occasionally the game doesn't load very quick.
08:05
It's very manoeuvrable.
08:07
But, yeah, if the game doesn't load very quick,
08:09
you can see the bombs load before the plane, for example.
08:13
So, obviously, everything's loaded inside, I think.
08:16
Wow, this is... Oh, dear.
08:18
Oh, no, no, no.
08:20
Oh, no. No, no, no.
08:23
Um...
08:25
Yeah, I just managed to spin out an aircraft...
08:29
in Arcade,
08:31
to the point of crashing.
08:34
I somehow think that might be a placeholder flight model.
08:37
There is no way that is the actual flight model.
08:42
There's no way that is the actual flight model.
08:46
I'm going to quickly take the G8-N1 out for a test flight
08:50
to get a better look at the...
08:53
internal workings of the aircraft.
08:56
I've taken the G8-N1,
08:58
because it's a large aircraft.
09:00
It's got more modules.
09:02
It's got the gunners as well,
09:04
because, you know, I've got to see if it's...
09:06
Oh, no, it probably won't.
09:08
I was going to try and get one of the gunners killed,
09:10
to see if you can see the changes,
09:12
but somehow I don't think that's going to work,
09:14
unfortunately.
09:16
But, um...
09:18
Oh, it's gone a bit laggy for a few seconds.
09:21
Ah, there we go.
09:24
Right.
09:26
So what can we see in the aircraft?
09:28
Right, you can see our internal engines...
09:30
Oh, going off course.
09:33
Let's see if I can get it in the air and then have a look.
09:39
Oh, just about.
09:41
Right, what can we see?
09:43
Bit of a stretch to try and...
09:45
press two buttons and use the mouse,
09:47
and...
09:49
three buttons and the mouse.
09:51
So you can see the gunner.
09:53
You can see all the various gunners in, like,
09:55
some weird-looking models.
09:57
Um, okay.
09:59
You can see the engines.
10:01
You can see, like,
10:03
it looks like the structures of the wings sort of thing.
10:05
Oh, and I think you can see the fuel tanks as well.
10:09
Um, not really sure what else we can see here.
10:11
Um, well, there'd be more if I was...
10:13
if I'm honest.
10:15
I don't know if you can see...
10:17
are they the bombs?
10:21
You can see something at the bomb bay area.
10:25
I don't know if they're meant...
10:26
I don't know what they are.
10:27
Fuel tanks?
10:29
Oh, wow.
10:31
Maybe that's just my new headphones.
10:33
They sound a lot...
10:35
cooler than usual.
10:36
I don't know if that's something added in,
10:38
or just my headphones.
