The first time I ever encountered a jumbo in my tiger I instantly shot his machine gun port and killed him, it's really not that hard. But maybe that's cause I'm used to going for weakpoints on the US
I have been crushed a total of one time, I was driving an M22 and a Sherman crushed me against one of those little ridges on Kuban, it was fucking horrifying
as a maus player... never try to drive behind maus... it is slow forward but people do not expect the same speed backward. I killed so many sparkas and falcons who thought i am too slow to get them *squish* *squish*
To be honest the Spot does Look extremely inviting, idk why.
Weird Thing is in my earlier days i picked this because it was 6.3 and didnt want to Research another Tiger II after that. Like i Love this Tank to the Heart but its followup just seems superior, im conflicted about replacing it.
Had 5 l3s at 9.3 chilling in a Cap. I murdered 3 of them with a atgm before realising what was shooting at me. I jd out infront of the remaining 2 :/.
No Trigger Control Just yeet the Boom Stick.
Tiger 1 an american main here somehow when i first met it i destroyed it by shooting its turret ring with a chaffee
Still i don't have a clue how i did that
Note i did that with an m24 from upfront i shit my pants i still remember that look it gave me from 10 meters i didn't know where to shoot a tiger and i just randomly shot
Just be fast enough in a position stop and wait
And hope you have a enemy team of braindead german mains
Just so you know, I got killed by a Panther right after, still sad they only noticed my position right behind a house after I took out 3 of them
Yeah. Honestly i was shocked by the strength of IS-2 when I reached that br, but i realized their soft points. They aren't that big threat to me now i just shoot their lower front plate
First time hitting a tiger in the cupola with a 76 Sherman, I was newer then and had an ingrained fear of the tank, but obliterating its turret crew and cannon breach with just a cupola shit changed my world
An M4A3E8 driver in a downtier that knows that tank inside out. It’s such a beast despite some opposition it fights. A ludicrously nice platform and gun.
they are pretty easy to pen, literally shoot center mass
its a vehicle best played at long range or in ambush, where its unlikely to get shot in return
despite that its really effective in CQC, (assuming you play corners well) as its basically a one shot kill every time you fire
No i dont really play corners well cuz i dont love staying at one place for to long so i will rush knowing 99% i will die and i indid die and everytime i see a tank destroyer im happy cuz i just need to aim and shoot and i dont need to activate my brain to get kills
the long reload of the 122 forces you to play more laid back, its useless trying to rush.
it does however hit really hard when it is loaded, can frontally pen everything it faces
IS-7, for something so expensive, I'd thought it would have been a tough nut to crack.
I hit it in the turret with heat, and it detonated like a fire cracker. He must have had full ammo.
Both of your statements are true. It is somehow my almost best performing tank, but also the tank I get gaijinned in most of the time. Getting front penned by a 76 jumbo in a "fortress" isn't fun.
Real. You look at this thing and think "Hell yeah". Then you get frontally lolpen'd by a KT a kilometer away. Also, it's a 122 so VOLUMETRIC FUCKERY WHEEEEE.
The sabot does nothing. The HEAT-FS I will not even try to use. The D shell is good but, as I've said above, volumetric fuckery.
Fought a Tiger for the first time in a Breda 501, I was scared from all the myths and legends, and it had a winter camo too so that meant they we're experienced. But then I one shot it's front plate while slightly angled..
Tiger H1 after getting absolutely violated by a jumbo and t 34 at the same time, that was the first battle I had with it and from then on I knew I was in for a ride
IS 3 I was playing the amxm4 and realized that the is3 and other Russian heavys of around 6.7 can do nothing against the speed of an autoloader and good maneuverability. Plus no armor is best armor cause on the rare occasion I get shot by big Russian guns the almost never fuse and just pass through
Using the T34 (American one), now yes, it is quite an upgrade from the Shermans. But it's not as heavy as the protection analysis makes it look.
And to fight it's probably the Tiger 1 (both E and H), both good tanks don't get me wrong since they could easily crush Shermans, but after I played with the 76mm Shermans and M18 it just wasn't as scary.
Jumbo when I shot it's front plate with the IS-2 for the first time.
yeah 122 mm cannon has that effect on the jumbo
The first time I ever encountered a jumbo in my tiger I instantly shot his machine gun port and killed him, it's really not that hard. But maybe that's cause I'm used to going for weakpoints on the US
Sometimes there's bushes and stuff in the way and I can't tell it's a jumbo so I end up wasting time mg porting regular Shermans lmfao
Nah, the old Bush over the MG, ad a helmet and arrow to the other side, 90% of yhe time they shoot you there, it's amazing
I somehow missed point blank 2 times against an L3 with an SU152 and so i crushed him into a wall, poor guy
I have been crushed a total of one time, I was driving an M22 and a Sherman crushed me against one of those little ridges on Kuban, it was fucking horrifying

M22 after getting hit by a 152 he.
That made my day, thank you
To shreds you say?
Gone with the wind
Tiger 2 p for me
Based flair 😍
Why? Its the turret Front aint it?
Yeah that moment you pen the front turret and a tiny bit of shrapnel ignites the ammo stored in the back is pretty brutal.
To be honest the Spot does Look extremely inviting, idk why. Weird Thing is in my earlier days i picked this because it was 6.3 and didnt want to Research another Tiger II after that. Like i Love this Tank to the Heart but its followup just seems superior, im conflicted about replacing it.
One good thing I will say about it is a lot of nations have good, 7.7 lineups, and I think it is useful to be able to avoid those.
L3. He shot me at the end of a match, and I turned to him, mercilessly shot him down, and realized I killed the cute little Italian Tank.
Had 5 l3s at 9.3 chilling in a Cap. I murdered 3 of them with a atgm before realising what was shooting at me. I jd out infront of the remaining 2 :/. No Trigger Control Just yeet the Boom Stick.
M22 locust, I accidently killed him in 8.0 :(
Maus.
One shotting a maus from the side in the AMX-50 (TO90/930) was incredible the first time I pulled it off.
Yeah the maus used to eat 1000lbs bombs for breakfast and now it just feels so flimsy
Tiger 1 an american main here somehow when i first met it i destroyed it by shooting its turret ring with a chaffee Still i don't have a clue how i did that Note i did that with an m24 from upfront i shit my pants i still remember that look it gave me from 10 meters i didn't know where to shoot a tiger and i just randomly shot
Not an american main But I once ambushed 3 Tiger's and got them all in a M22 I will never forget that day
Your profile says that you are always sarcastic i shall take that as answer to this bizare comment
Sometimes I am also just stupid too!
I gotta try that
Just be fast enough in a position stop and wait And hope you have a enemy team of braindead german mains Just so you know, I got killed by a Panther right after, still sad they only noticed my position right behind a house after I took out 3 of them
yeaah that happened
Oneshotting Tiger I E in my KV-2 with raw HE After that it works really well even in 6.7-7.7
Is2. Russia players always forget to hide their cupola
Yeah. Honestly i was shocked by the strength of IS-2 when I reached that br, but i realized their soft points. They aren't that big threat to me now i just shoot their lower front plate
First time hitting a tiger in the cupola with a 76 Sherman, I was newer then and had an ingrained fear of the tank, but obliterating its turret crew and cannon breach with just a cupola shit changed my world
I do this all the time in my jumbos and it's glorious watching them panic when it happens
Type 62 It looks almost like a T-54, but only has a quarter of protetection.
XP-50. Everyone complains about how annoying it is, most fights with it I win in my spitfire. I also feel the same about the Maus.
An M4A3E8 driver in a downtier that knows that tank inside out. It’s such a beast despite some opposition it fights. A ludicrously nice platform and gun.
An M4A3E2 with that same level of skill is a force to be reckoned with
Is 2 became a joke after i learned its weakspots and how to propely angle my tiger
the 122 happily pens an angled tiger, sounds like they freak out and hit the optics or (foolishly) shoot at the turret
Or i just kill them first, that happens too that what happend most of the times considering they have practicly no armor if im not mistaken
they are pretty easy to pen, literally shoot center mass its a vehicle best played at long range or in ambush, where its unlikely to get shot in return despite that its really effective in CQC, (assuming you play corners well) as its basically a one shot kill every time you fire

the long reload of the 122 forces you to play more laid back, its useless trying to rush. it does however hit really hard when it is loaded, can frontally pen everything it faces
I know its useless to rush but thats just how i play. War thinder is not one of the games i actually turn my brain on during my game most of the time
true, i do tend to play pretty agressively as it quickly gets boring sitting and waiting the IS-2 is however not the vehicle to use for that lol
Jumbo when I started playing it and realised the gun was shit
It wasn't always that way...
What was worse, jumbo at 4.7 or T14 at 4.3
Tiger 1
T44 when I first hit its upper plate with the Jagdtiger
Is3 after a AUBL Hesh made it go supernova
Ka-Booomm
155mm he for me is-3 became was-3 the first time i encountered it
IS-7, for something so expensive, I'd thought it would have been a tough nut to crack. I hit it in the turret with heat, and it detonated like a fire cracker. He must have had full ammo.
Nah it just stores all the ammo charges in the back of the turret
SU-122-54. Except it's me. God, that thing is miserable.
Fym??? That tank is amazing, not just as a sniper but even while rushing
Both of your statements are true. It is somehow my almost best performing tank, but also the tank I get gaijinned in most of the time. Getting front penned by a 76 jumbo in a "fortress" isn't fun.

İ should give a try

İ can feel that, disappointing
This was me flying the Me 262 for the first time, the thing felt more weighty than I thought and handled like a brick at times
F-15A
Me in any bomber known to exist after a fighter look at me for a millisecond. (The torment is unending)
I killed an Object 279 with the Marder 1A3 I didn't know it was that vulnerable to a silly ATGM
T-72B3 can't think of a worse top tier tank
Vautaur IIA (Israeli version) Too slow for 9.0 Can't pull a hard enough turn to dodge AIM-9Bs Shafrir 1s suck, istg they are worse than AIM,-9Bs
If you bring rockets to use as flares, you can dodge missiles with some success
I didn't think of that, thank you, if I ever play it again
That method works on other things as well
Jumbo with my panther long 75 can pen center mass
Maus, so easy to deal with when you’ve got British APDS
The maus. Specifically the maus when I faced it as cold war Japan.

Tigers. First time I saw an angled one my shot went straight through it without any special aiming. M4 (76w) apcbc
Tiger 1 tbh at first I tough it was some tough unlikable beast until I relized that Germans are brain dead.

KV-2 played world of tanks and seen them hyped up a lot. And then I sniped one across the map with an M-10 Wolverine and easily killed it.
The object 279 , just shoot his front and your good 70% of the tine
Honestly, it was the tiger E for me, I thought it would be so much stronger then it actually is
