The new Tu-2S is great!

Just like almost all other Russian planes…this is a very good one too.
I tried it in a few battles yesterday, here is the footage:

Soviet bias at it’s finest, they are only missing t-44-100/is-3/isu-152 to have total domination in every single fighting doctrine.

I’m gonna mansplain a bit xD
The lead indicator in this game is a bit jebaity - it seems delayed due to networking effects - meaning it generally is somewhat accurate as a “general direction the plane was going some miliseconds ago” - meaning you still have to correct it a bit on your own:

  • if enemy plane is diving hard - you should probably shoot a bit head of the leading indicator
  • if the enemy plane is in a zoom climb - you should probably lead a bit less
  • if they are turning into you - you actually have to lead less
    Generally sometimes it feels like you’re chasing the lead indicator not the plane itself and I think that sometimes griefs you :stuck_out_tongue:
    At 8:20 could have used the under-the-tail gunner :smiley:

It is what Wheraboo’s want the 188 to be, only faster, with better manoeuvrability and fixed forward firing cannon :slight_smile:

I was excited for the tu 2 because its a great plane its one i had been suggesting for ages.

Less excited for it when they buffed its climb and turn rate well beyond what it should be…why
