In this episode, Pages of History, Swedish Tender for Best MBT, Tactics and Strategy, Winning in Tank Football, and Metal Beasts, the New Trainer.

We'd like to continue talking about the new vehicles added this spring.

Today we're going to focus on the namesake of the Alpha Strike update.

Please welcome a light attack jet and trainer aircraft co manufactured by Germany and France — the Alpha Jet.

Our game offers two modifications, but today's feature will be limited to the German version.

This aircraft is pretty similar to the Italian AMX Ghibli that we talked about not so long ago.

Still, comparing them would be a questionable idea.

Despite sharing some design features and class, these aircraft belong to different weight categories.

An empty Alpha Jet has half the mass of its Italian counterpart, so it'd make more sense to compare it to another combat trainer — the Swedish Saab one o five.

The Alpha's power plant is a twin turbojet engine with an afterburning power of around twenty five hundred kilogram forces.

It's not much, but it's good enough for such a lightweight machine.

While you shouldn't expect impressive dynamics, you can still very well achieve around a thousand kilometres an hour near the ground if you're patient.

Just try not to make any sudden movements at that speed.

Combine a pitch and a roll and you can kiss your wingtips goodbye.

In air combat, this plane has no armament choice to speak of.

There's only one twenty seven millimeter cannon available.

But what a cannon it is!

It has an ammo pool of a hundred fifty rounds, which is more than on the high ranking Gripen.

It offers a good rate of fire, amazing accuracy and great damage.

After getting used to its low fire density, downing targets with short bursts becomes easy.

There's one surprising bonus as well — countermeasures!

At a battle rating this low, they're a luxury.

The Alpha Jet doesn't see a lot of radar guided missiles, so you wouldn't need a load of chaff.

But flares certainly wouldn't hurt.

And now for the juiciest part — close air support.

The aircraft won't surprise anyone with its payload — just six bombs or blocks of rockets.

What makes it appealing, though, is a ballistic computer for all available ordnance.

This means the Alpha Jet can deliver precision strikes while staying outside the range of most anti aircraft guns.

You might say, can't the targets just drive away from the bombs?

And you'd be right.

But experience tells us that most tanks don't bother with repositioning, and some anti air gunners never even leave the spawn point.

When you spend all the bombs and rockets, you can still use the cannon.

Your ballistic computer will help you even with that.

The AP belt will go through light vehicles like a hot knife through butter, and might even find a flaw in heavy armor.

The Leopard II was originally developed for use in another world war.

The Fulda Gap, an area between the two Germanies, was expected to decide the fate of Europe and the rest of the world in a massive battle between Western armies and Soviet tanks.

Thankfully, the plan never had to be executed, and once the Cold War was over, the tank race shifted into competing for clients and their wallets.

By the early of the nineteen nineties, Sweden's park of heavy armor was pretty outdated.

Even the latest Centurions and S tanks couldn't impress anyone, while their own MBT program died down.

That's why the government announced a tender in nineteen ninety three and opened it to manufacturers from all over the world.

The American General Dynamics brought its Abrams, the German Krauss Maffei, the Leopard II, and the French Giard offered its Leclerc.

There was one more contestant that felt out of place though.

With an economic crisis threatening to go haywire, Russian officials decided to make a bold move and take part in this tender, offering the T ADU.

Sweden evaluated the vehicles in five metrics, mobility, fire control systems, tactical data systems, reliability, and survivability.

According to reports, Western tanks successfully passed all trials, while the T AT only passed the mobility test.

Experts noted the outdated fire control systems, but deemed the tank good enough for daytime.

The T AT did have night vision devices, but its NVDs were clearly inferior to the rest of the competition.

Its reverse speed was also remarkably low, which limited its application in certain combat scenarios.

Last but not least, Sweden wasn't impressed by the T 八's firepower.

They believed that even the one hundred five millimeter cannons armed with modern ammo offered equal performance to the tank's one hundred twenty five millimeter discarding sabot shells.

Armor was also tested with a bit of good old shooting.

The Leopard scored the highest.

Its modular wedge shaped turret was so good that most of it was basically invincible.

The Leopard also won the chassis tests.

thanks to its reliability and a more efficient engine.

By the way, the Abrams scored the lowest in this part, due to its fuel hungry gas turbine engine.

The German tank also made a good impression in the firepower part of the trials.

Even before the tests were complete, it was clear that the Leopard was far ahead.

The T Eighty was eliminated, and neither the Leclerc nor the Abrams managed to shorten the gap.

The outcome was unsurprising.

In the year of the year, Sweden purchased more than a hundred old Leopard II tanks.

The A IV modification was designated Stridsvagn one twenty one, while fresher A V versions were adjusted to Swedish standards and accepted into service as the Stridsvagn one twenty two.

Why don't we take a break from the endless battles?

Let's check out a nearby stadium, touch some grass, play ball.

Besides, the Tank Football event is hot right now!

To make this fun chaos a bit more educational, we'll throw in some tips and tricks to help you get to that Queen song.

So there are two types of games in this event — three versus three for solo players and four versus four for squads.

Tactics are better employed with friends, of course, so we'll be playing the squad tournament tonight.

The game starts with the Orange Team's initiative.

With some skill, you can launch your first attack right from the center of the field.

The forward player just needs to move the ball to a comfy position for a strike.

All it takes is driving straight and pushing the ball twice.

Move it between the goal posts and the attacker to give them a chance to accelerate and give the ball a strong kick.

Let's see what it looks like for the attacker.

They accelerate towards the kicking point in advance and shoot the ball to give it some extra force.

Done correctly, this will launch the ball towards the opponent's goalposts.

With some practice, you can even learn how to direct the ball into a specific corner.

Of course, sending the ball there is cool, but the other team has a goalie and doesn't intend to sit idle.

That's where the other two players come into play.

They're just as important.

They spawn next to the goalposts for those cases when the plan goes awry and your team needs to defend.

One of them should guard the goal line, while the other one needs to move to the center of their side of the field and get ready to both attack and defend.

The defending team can't attack first, but they can still seize the initiative very quickly if they know what to do.

The goalie has the most straightforward position.

They spawn next to the goal line, and all they need to do is reposition their vehicle for the best result.

Two more athletes mirror each other on the left and the right.

Their main task is to head to the center of the field, speed up, and block the attacker in a jump.

These two players can become the first line of defense.

You can also turn your tank sideways to improve your coverage.

A blocked ball would often ricochet to the opposite side of the field, and the teams would trade initiative.

But let's say the block was unsuccessful.

Then you need your second line of defense, the fourth player, who spawns the furthest.

Their best position is in the center of their side of the field.

This allows them to both help the goalkeeper and support an offense, depending on the situation.

And finally, here's a couple more tricks.

You'll often see the ball next to a wall where multiple players from both teams try to push it out.

It's tempting to get inside this chaos and show everyone who's the real dribbling master.

But more often than not, leaving a single player inside the mess while the rest wait for a good chance is a more effective approach.

Sooner or later the ball will come out, and the more players are ready for a coordinated attack, the better.

Another great skill is redirecting the ball to the enemy goal.

You don't often get a chance for a good kick in the middle of a round, so the second best option is a corner pass.

One player needs to speed up along the wall while others wait next to the goalpost.

Do you have any tips and tricks of your own?

Share them in the comments!

We hope you all score spectacular goals and have a great time!

Meanwhile, we'll answer some of your questions.

The first question was sent by a player called Ghostdog.

What's the best loadout for the SU XXV?

Hi, Ghost Dog!

If you mean the earliest SU

Hey, not Rook!

Not all vautours are bombers.

Some are attack aircraft and interceptors, and those don't have bombsights.

Another question comes from Toe one thousand.

Where are the best places to put bushes on the M I A I?

Hi Toe!

It depends on the size and number of bushes.

We'd probably go for the gun mantlet first to hide the turret cheeks and lines.

Then you can mask the turret ring and the hull.

Guy Nate two thousand writes, I'd love to see the A one H or the A M one in the pages of history.

Hello, Nate.

We've actually talked about them before, in episode number three hundred thirteen.

Check it out when you get a chance.

That's it for today!
