World of Tanks - Russian Lend-Lease Tetrarch Light Tank - YouTube xenofoxx

With Warships and Warplanes taking up most of my gaming time, I rarely get to play Tanks as often as I use to. So I decided to take my Tetrarch out for a spin. With our team in the lead, I decided to go for a downhill ramming attack. The Light Tank Mk VII (A17) "Tetrarch" was a British light tank designed to replace the Mk VI vehicles. It featured a whole new suspension with large road wheels and featured the 2-pounder main gun. Problems with the cooling system, as well as the overall weakness of the armor made it unsuitable for desert fighting, so it was not used during the North African campaign. When the Germans invaded the Soviet Union during Operation Barbarossa, the USSR was extended into the Lend-Lease program between the United States and United Kingdom. During this time, about 20 Tetrarch vehicles were sent to Russia.

World of Warplanes - Russian Fighter Kostikov 302 - YouTube xenofoxx

World of Warplanes

This battle was during the 2016 "Japanese Threat" event, featuring Allies versus Axis. By 1940, the Soviet Union had already done research and built prototypes that featured rocket powered ram-jet engines with mixed results. During this time, Professor Mikhail Tikhonravov at RNII (Reaction-Engine Scientific Research Institute) had conceived an idea for a light fighter aircraft using a liquid-propellant rocket engine. The design would have short flight-times but would have superior speed and performance, as well as being cheap to produce. It would most likely would have served as an interceptor. The design came to the attention of A. G. Kostikov, who proposed the new aircraft, backed by Tikhonravov. Joseph Stalin himself gave approval for the continuation of the project. It was designated "Ko-3" and funding was provided for two prototypes. Kostikov was appointed as the chief designer. The aerodynamics were tested by building the fuselage as a glider. Later in the development phase the tail-mounted engine was omitted in favor of only the two wing-mounted engine pods. By this point the aircraft was called "302 P". The unreliable engines continued to cause delays until the project was cancelled in 1944. In the same year a trial was held and Kostikov was imprisoned for failing to deliver the 302 fighter on schedule.

World of Warplanes - Russian Ilyushin BSh-2 - YouTube xenofoxx

World Of Warplanes (Video Game)

The BSh-2 was the prototype for the infamous USSR Il-2 Sturmovik. In this match I got into trouble at the end. Me versus the German Focke-Wulf Fw 189 C Eule. Both are attack aircraft but the Fw 189 is more manuverable and has a tail gunner. The BSh-2 is slow and has no rear protection. He almost had me toward the end.

World of Warplanes - Russian Attack Aircraft Ilyushin Il-2 (mod.) With Rear Gunner - YouTube xenofoxx

World of Warplanes

This battle was during the 2016 "Japanese Threat" event, featuring Allies versus Axis. The IL-2 has gone under many nicknames to describe its durability, including "Flying Tank", "Flying Infantryman", "Armored Tub" and "Hunchback" to name a few. However when it was first introduced it was discovered the plane was vulnerable from the rear. This was largely due to it's low altitude flying practices and the slower speed which German fighters could take advantage of. A two-seat variant of the aircraft would be introduced in March 1942. Prior to that a much more crude introduction of a rear gunner was needed. Early Il-2s were modified in the field by cutting holes in the fuselage behind the Pilot, and stringing a canvas sling for the gunner to sit on. Often the gunner would take a 12.7 mm machine gun and fix it to an improvised mount. This early modification had mixed results. It provided the aircraft with machine gun cover from the rear, however the gunner was completely exposed and unprotected. Also the extra weight, the shift in the center of gravity, and the aerodynamic drag created by the modification reduced the planes speed and maneuverability. The aforementioned two seater production model of the aircraft removed the need for this front-line modification in later Il-2s.

World of Warplanes - Russian Kochyerigin TSh-2 Ground Attack Aircraft - Winter War - YouTube xenofoxx

World Of Warplanes (Video Game)

As a low tier GA (Ground Attack) aircraft, it doesn't contain any bombs or rockets. For many players, their first experience with this aircraft may be to try and treat it like a fighter. Be warned, it lacks the maneuverability to be played as such. However, it can be used as a mixed support vehicle. In this video, I focus on Ground Targets (the initial purpose of GAs), making the anti-aircraft guns my primary focus. But as soon as enemy aircraft enter the area, change to an assist role. Using my heavy firepower to chew through enemy armor. When the skies are clear, you return to ground targets. That's how I do GA planes.
