Subtitles section

The Shooting Range In this episode, Pages of History, Reference Anti Airgun, Squadmates, American Desert, and Metal Beasts, a pirate with precision weapons.

Last week we had the Super Rook boast its new missiles, so today it's the turn of the latest aerial swashbuckler to shine.

Please welcome a British carrier based attack aircraft, the Buccaneer S II Modification B.

It looks pretty much the same as the previous model.

Same sharp wings, thick body, massive tail, and an oddly shaped air break.

The only difference is the bulging lid of the bomb bay.

The new model has an extra fuel tank there.

Does the Buccaneer need so much fuel though?

Hardly likely.

The aircraft is propelled by two turbojet engines with a total thrust of ten thousand kilogram forces.

They have no afterburners, so fuel consumption is pretty modest, and even a minimal load is more than enough for most missions.

Much like the last model, the new Buccaneer can't offer impressive dynamics.

It takes a while to reach its maximum speed even with no bomb load, and no supersonic aircraft would be surprised by the effort.

The main thing this aircraft brings into air battles is two all aspect AIM IXL missiles.

The Buccaneer can encounter enemies with no flares, and that's the main kind of prey for the aircraft.

Once the missiles are all spent, all it can do is go back for a reload.

There are no cannons installed.

Oh, and there's another improvement over the last model.

Countermeasure pods don't occupy the valuable hardpoints anymore.

In mixed battles, the Buccaneer can enjoy a wide choice of rockets, missiles, and bombs.

In conventional bombs, we recommend you pick the one thousand pound bombs.

There's no sense in going smaller when your max load is that high.

For the wing pylons, pick the Mark I bombs.

Unlike the Mark XIII in the internal bay, these offer more explosive filler.

If required, you can also trade some of the bombs for defensive air to air missiles.

The Buccaneer can also employ precision guided munitions.

Laser bombs aren't that special.

It's the same reliable, handy weapon that most War Thunder pilots know and love.

The air to surface missiles, however, deserve a shout out of their own.

This is the newly introduced AJ one sixty eight Martel, a TV guided missile.

As expected, it has the fire and forget capability.

The warhead contains almost ninety kilograms of TNT equivalent, so not even the best protected targets can hold the punch of this swashbuckler.

Sweden has been avoiding wars for a long time now.

Despite that, its military industry has always been prominent in Europe.

So prominent that some of the weapons made by Swedish engineers served as reference models for many years.

That's exactly what happened to the Bofors L Sixty cannon, although the manufacturer didn't even want to make it at first.

To protect their ships from aircraft, the Swedes purchased the Vickers guns from Great Britain, the ones known as pom poms for their unique firing sound.

And despite an amazing performance shown during World War I, the military soon found them disappointing due to their low range and high cost of maintenance.

The pom poms needed a replacement.

The mission was assigned to Bofors, an arms and steel manufacturer.

Victor Hamar and his team envisioned a perfect solution.

They took a British twenty millimeter cannon, added the breech block of a nineteenth century fifty seven millimeter gun, designed it to use forty millimeter rounds, and added a new automatic loading mechanism.

The loading mechanism was a big pain to design, by the way, and took several years to perfect.

After numerous experiments, the engineers settled on a cam operated, recoil powered autoloader.

Tens of thousands of hours spent on the blueprints, high quality steel, and first rate Swedish powder resulted in a true masterpiece.

Bofors experts achieved amazing ballistics, and their new creation's rate of fire was three times that of the Vickers, even before the final adjustments were made.

The production variant also received modern reflector sights, while the batch ordered by the Netherlands even got stabilizers.

By the way, the Dutch were the first buyers for the forty millimeter L sixty gun, not Sweden itself.

The army appreciated the new acquisition.

The new gun was arguably the most convenient, rapid firing, powerful, and reliable anti aircraft gun of the era.

Bofors management saw the huge potential of their new gun.

The company offered it to Greece, Argentina, Egypt, and many other nations.

In Belgium, the L Sixty showed such a great anti air performance during trials that Bofors was soon showered with orders from all over the world.

Even the British and the French chipped in despite having robust industries of their own.

The war proved all the buyers right.

Thanks to a great combination of traits, the Bofors L Sixty was decidedly one of the best for many years to come.

The Swedes couldn't handle the demand, so the gun was soon licensed to companies in the United States, Australia, Poland, and other countries.

The only thing that could stop the gun from conquering the market was the speeds achieved by new jets, but Bofors took the initiative and modified the L Sixty, giving it an improved rate of fire and accuracy, as well as an extended barrel and an enhanced autoloader mechanism.

The new gun was ready for mass production in the early fifties and was designated the Bofors L Seventy.

Both weapons stayed in production for decades, finding their spots on all kinds of platforms, from ships to self propelled carriages to the American AC one thirty gunship.

The L Seventy is still in service today, so much so that even some prototypes are armed with it.

Sweden gave credit where credit was due.

The designers of this canon received awards and fame.

Viktor Hamar, the head of the team, was awarded the Arnberg Prize by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in the year of the year.

And in the year of the year, he was elected a Fellow with the Academy of Engineering Sciences of Sweden.

Our squadmates continue their travels, and this time they found themselves in the endless American desert.

This map is far from symmetrical, so we'll give you some tips for both sides.

Let's start with the northern team.

Spawn together in the south and head towards the town.

Your priority here is to assume control over the center.

One of the tanks should enter the urban area via the block in square D III, and while the other one should follow the main road in square D IV.

Now point B is under crossfire.

While the enemy is distracted by one of the tanks, the other one can drive out of cover and land a confident hit.

With numerous shelters in the capture area, you can even fight against superior forces.

Once the center is clear, take the point and split up to drive in parallel towards point C.

If you keep some distance between you, you can control a larger area and reduce the chances of two players getting ambushed at the same time.

Don't stay too far apart, though, since you'll want to be able to help each other quickly.

Once you're close to the point, plan your route in such a way that you can attack the point from the enemy side and catch the defenders unawares.

Once the second point is yours, all that's left is to find a good defensive position in the town.

If you spawn on the other side, you should also pick the southern spawn base, but your main priority would be point A. One of you should head to the town, in a nice firing line found in square E four.

This place allows you to block off the main approach to the western capture area.

The only remaining safe path would be along the depression area beyond the railroad.

This should win the other player enough time to enter the capture area unchecked and paint point A with allied colors.

Then you can fire a few shots at the opponents with no extra risk, just to split their attention.

The next mission is to advance this success to the center of the map.

Use the parallel movement maneuver again.

One follows the main road, the other one drives along narrow streets on the enemy side.

This way one of you can attack point B head on while the other one flanks it.

Coordinate your actions to safely dispose of the enemy by attacking from two sides.

Once the second point is yours, you can find a good defensive position.

There are some nice spots in squares D III and D IV, for instance.

And while our squadmates finish their battles, it's time for us to answer some of the questions you left under previous episodes.

The first question was sent by a player called Just a Gamer.

What are the differences between the M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M M

Hi there.

The main difference is barrel length and, consequently, muzzle velocity.

Chan Labador asks, Will the MH XXL DAP ever get its forward facing machine guns and cannons?

Hey Chan, the American Blackhawk could use some cannons, you're right.

That's why we've recently given it an option to carry two extra miniguns.

Another question comes from Conker.

What are the diagonal bars on the sides of the battleships?

Hi, Conker.

You probably mean the booms used with torpedo nets.

It's a simple but effective device.

Incoming torpedoes hit the mesh far enough from the ship to do no damage to it.

Il Cleme writes, do you guys think that the Ariete plane will ever be on discount?

Ciao.

War Thunder offers discounts every year for certain events, like our game's birthday or New Year's Eve.

So yeah, the Ariete will be on discount at some point.

And the last comment for today was written by Amiglad.

What's the difference between the MiG XXIII and the MiG XXVII?

Hello there.

The MiG XXIII is the name of a multi role fighter family.

They could attack ground targets too, but didn't excel at it, so a more specialized machine was made.

And that's how the MiG XXIIIB was born.

An aircraft with a tapered down nose that offers a better view of what's below the plane.

This fighter bomber version later served as the foundation for a separate family of strike aircraft, known as the MiG XXVII.

That's it for today.
