Despite not having the best performance the F9F-8 Cougar has a lot of utilities that make it great to knock down people that are busy and slow.
It has some quirks but they can be a strength in the right situations.

The thing that continues to impress me in DEFYN's videos is not his ability to reverse 3 people at once in inferior aircraft, but his ability to isolate 1v1s. Been flying this thing since you said you were gonna upload a video on it and those AN/M3's carry this plane so hard when stock. Great video as always man.
it also happened to me, I'm trying to full the mig 15 bis and I have learned how to drag people on my tail to do 1v1s, the plane has become easier and I never believed that 1v1s existed in 8.3
That's the thing that's most impressive. Defyn can just... take control of a game like that.
Positioning is one of the greatest skills you can learn in RB IMO. It's a tool that allows you to dismantle an enemy team piece by piece even in the face of unfavorable odds.
@@JustSomeGuy489 nah he cant he rarely does this
Stock AN/M3s are just plane shotguns.
Ki200: *Gets a kill and survives to the end of the match*
Everyone: Wait, thats illegal
He's dead in a field lol
He didn't survive
Compression isn't always the right term.
It applies to the effects of passing the wing's critical mach number, where the airflow goes supersonic. Not the plane going supersonic, just the airflow.
At this point the airflow detaches behind the widest point of the airfoil, leaving very little air for the ailerons to work with. This happens to every part of the plane at a certain point, including the stabilizers.
Most CZcamsrs use it incorrectly. For most applications the correct term is "lockup" or saying the "controls get stiff".
hey defyn, i was wondering, maybe you should make some videos about your deaths in matches and talk about what your mistakes were and what you shouldve done? do you think you can do something like that? i think it would be very helpful
that's actually a great idea!
most my deaths are dumb shit like head-ons I couldn't dodge/messed up, carries that were impossible or the enemy just having a way superior plane.
If I have deaths that I think are worth showing I show them.
Like you will in the next video
@@DEFYN alright then, thanks a lot
wait does Defyn even die? 😂
@@DEFYN I think perhaps what could be useful is showing the deaths of your enemies from their perspective in the replay, because it can be a bit hard for less experienced players to visualise the sight picture that your target will see while you outmaneuver and kill them, to know what went wrong.
Literally just spent the ~1mil to buy this. So glad for the video, thanks!!
It does indeed cost exactly a million SL.
I tend to bleed SL in this plane because of the high repair cost. I feel like i get focused
The stock grind on this plane is atrocious! The missiles are almost a requirement to have but they take forever to get because the high cost of the modifications
@@TopHop100 same
The MiG-17AS is slowly but steadily becoming my favourite jet, it's the best jet at its BR to carry matches with imo
Hey defyn, any chance of you making another 109 k4 video?
Does this thing really deserve a 20k repair cost? Especially with the MiG-15 being 10k, tops?
Really, Gaijin?
Naval planes seem to have the highest repair costs, next to bombers.
High repair cost is just retarded, doesn't matter if the plane is OP or not.
Its the same company that gives the german il28 a 15k repair while its just a copy paste of the Russian one which has half the repair so you can't really expect any kind of logic behind the repair costs
less people play it therefore skewed statistics. Much more people play the MiG-15
@@vicsaucey This is true, but it's because it has such a high repair cost. Therefore, only the best players play it, which skews the statistics and drives the cost up even more.
Bruh you make warthunder look so easy, for most of us it's pain thunder
This
Just about to get my aam for this bad girl, been loving flying this plane. Thanks for the video!
Simply awesome! I also love ve the look of this plane too
Wow, one of the best run that i ever seen. GG
Great video bro! Keep it up.
Could you make a video about the general features about every nation? For example: this nation generally has planes with good climb rate, this one has planes with better fire power or better turn rate, etc.
Thanks in advance your videos are truly amazing :)
An excellent plane that is truly enjoyable to fly.
Nice flying dude :)
Damn that's one beautiful plane
just got this thing. Thanks
Ooooooo thank you man ooooo so much thank you, I was think I em going loco when my bullets fly thrue enemy and then after vatching ripleys and ripleys, all I see is that they do only masive Spark Fest ufff ....
I em not a creasy 🤪
Great video and great flying in this big bucket that can do a work if you are a patient and deliberate 👌👍
yeah that stuff is annoying af
God this jet is beautiful. Really hope they add the Voodoo at some point, similar sort of weird beauty.
I’ve been flying the cougar for the past 2mon and omg it’s so good imo (minus the various performance issues)
You're a crazy good shot
Great video
He makes it look so easy
Hey DEFYN! Love your content. I was wondering if you could do a video on the F-40? Even just your thoughts on the state of it at 9.3 would be great. Thanks so much 🙏🏽 love from Australia 🇦🇺
Btw I'm pretty sure the instant compression is due to the fact it has elevators rather than stabilitors since transonic airflow is wacky I'm not sure though
Great, and informative video. Do you think you could make one on the Su-7B now that it has an air spawn? On paper it’s stats are very similar to the MiG-19, but everyone keeps saying it’s a bad plane and I’m curious as to why.
big kill number good ooga boga
After several battles I removed guns modification. It realy helped me to shoot better ;)
So very good. You are my favorite WT pilot. You know perfectly how are planes and what to do in each situation with. I'm not a bad player but...far from you, even with many years of playing.
GG for this vid
Also having four 20mm with a shit load of ammo for them is pretty huge for 8.7. They're very strong in head ons, and very good for long bursts. Easily the best gun loadout at that BR.
Hi Defyn, thank you once again for videos greatly appreciated. Please excuse my stupidity I'm starting to get the energy concept, please explain compression, is that when you crash into ground due to too much or too little speed? Thank you.
F9F-8 tutorial for my b-day, sadly i don't have it lol
@An Axolotl Thanks
Happy birthday
Happy birthday )
@@pimis_2gaming988 Thank You!
@@DEFYN Thanks a lot bro!
First, wow! Keep 'em coming.
G14 next please? Would like to see you try it out and rate if it is still competitive at 5.3 or not :D
Hey Defyn, you should try the do 335 again. It got an incredible buff this patch.
Do you do requests or have polls? Id love for you to do any of the me 262 variants. I love them and always want to hear advice for them.
Could you make a video on the Jaguar GR.1, I haven't seen any videos on it in air RB.
I didn't know the Blind Hunt in RB works like this oO. This looks more like a bug then something intended. Cause this is a bit against realistic battles idea.
Is it possible for a Super Mystere video?? A few tips would be nice. I usually just try to stay fast until I know that I can dogfight the enemy one vs one. I play it only in ground RB doing CAS but will run 9Bs with the SNEB rockets.
Damn i wish someday i will be as good as you in this game
I want to use this thing but the stock grind is absurdly bad
Focus on getting the compressor upgrade first, will save you lots of headaches
Could you take up the F7F Tigercat... or show off the G55s? TIA
Any chance you could try the Yak-38?
US Naval Jet line gets amazing at rank VI, just shame about those outrageous repair costs.
Hey DEFYN could you take out a spitfire variant and make a video on defensive fighting against boom and zoomers
I know you’ve played sabres a lot, and well, so how should I play the a5, especially against mig 15s. Like passive aggressive, witch times to do each?
If it's the A5, you don't. The F-25 needs to stay fast to live
Make a early french jets tutorial (Barougan and MD 452) because i SUCK with this planes, just want the mirage
Pro tip: play the f84G
he already has vids on both and nothing really changed in how you play these planes so they're still pretty accurate
French jets are pretty fine and balanced. The only issue is the fact that the MiG-15s and F-86s are now at 8.3.
Baguettes have a very clear place on the spectrum of TURN-----------------------------------ENERGY. Somewhere in the middle.
Basically, you mostly don't have find very small specific advantages over your enemies to be used situationally. Instead, if you know your opponent's plane, you know you can generally either BnZ or turn against him.
However, when facing MiG-15s and Sabres on your six, you have to be more situational, since they are simply better planes put at a too low BR
MiGs compress at higher speeds, and you can easily outroll them in defensive maneuvers. Their guns are also shit and have low velocity, so it's generally very hard for them to hit you and you can easily dodge shots.
F Sabres are better than you at everything, so you have to be smart and try to force an overshoot and then turn into him for a shot. Use flaps sometimes and maybe airbrake if you need.
The A-5 Sabre turns much better, but bleeds more energy than you, so he will get slower than you, so you can run from him after a maneuver. In a 1v1, the MD450B will have a harder time keeping up a sustained circle fight, but the 452 can keep its energy better, as it has a better engine than the MD450, but the A-5 will turn better at first, giving him a huge window of opportunity to shoot you, so try to get him slow.
MD450 has a good turn rate and will be easier to maneuver with. MD452 you have to try to stay faster, this you can use to run to your team for help.
So stick to the team always.
Also climb at around 10 degrees or so to get a better energy state.
If better performing enemies are chasing you away from the main fight and trying to isolate you from your team mates, don't keep running, because then you're more likely to die. Turn back towards the fight before the enemies are within 2km from your six so that you have time to create a sharp angle for them to overshoot, dodge their guns and keep flying towards your team again, since you *don't want to get in a dogfight with MiGs or Sabres in the first place*
With everything else at the same BR, you will pretty much have some basic performance advantage with turn or energy.
Also take headons mostly, especially with the MD452 IIC that has 30mm, but obviously don't commit to it.
So I am trying to spade the La-200 ... really not the best pilot but since there is basically nothing to be found on it content wise. I suspect there is a reason for that :D
Hey Defyn, could we get a F86 JASDF video?
edit : plz
Wp like always haha
I have around 600 kills to 200 deaths in this thing and i love to catch migs of guard. a lot of them dont expect missiles either
i dont like the anm3 20mm in jets bc everything is so fast
Hey defyn, what a jet is the best to researching for beginners? And maybe you can say what premium jet is a good for beginners?
Check out Defyn’s video on the Christmas sales. He recommends aircraft in each nations tech tree. From what I remember the mig 9 late is a good early jet.
@@wyvern7567 okey, thank you!
also a high Repair cost
Defyn kinda hacker, he kills people in a poopy plane
Interesting was this a War thunder? F9F is subsonic and I thought it would be a even match with a MIG15 at least? Graphics design okay but not to sure when there's no interior views.
there are interior views...
@@Ronnie_McDoggle Thanks
@@Brazmann021 appreciate the info I had no idea. Thanks 🇺🇲
Does anyone know why it tells me that the discord server link has "expired or invalid"?
Just try again. Refresh it maybe
Ki-200 bug is fixed? I couldn't take off in that thing.
Im wondering, what's the difference between the F9F-2, F9F-5 and F9F-8?
F9F-2 and F9F-5 have straight wings, decent turn, but low top speed and acceleration.
They have a better roll rate than MiGs, but they will be worse than Sabres and Mysteres at everything.
F9F-8 has swept wings, which makes it turn worse, but gives it a higher top speed, and it also has slightly better acceleration and 4 missiles.
The missiles give it an edge over other planes, and even though your opponents will be faster, the difference will not be as much, and you will be able to get out of sticky situations easier.
The F-2 and F-5 should be 8.0 IMO, while the F-8 is fine at 8.3.
Does that apply for German F84f? I just cant fly that brick
A26 invader VIDEO PLSSS!
g91YS or sm91?
can u make one for the banshee? no matter how i try my best, 70% of my games in it i get clapped despite the maneuvers and mainly acting as team support. it bleeds energy too fast for me
The banshee is just... no
@@wg4112 yeah, that's why i asked him to make a vid so he can sho people how to properly play it. Most of us in banshees no matter how good our maneuver is, and how much we tactically pick our enemies while maintaining our support role, still get insta clapped by migs alike, especially when u get up tiered towards the g91's and swifts. the only thing u can pray for is no body will be paying any attention to ur ass T_T
it's like one second ur at 800km/h. u do a short and slight, shallow turn, suddenly ur at 500 for some reason. most planes u face have better energy retention than u do and better acceleration too. in my case it's hard to maintain speed as constant uptiers, u have enemies faster than you and will still catch you even if u have energy advantage at the start. the last f2h he made was years ago
It sucks stock, because then it's basically a worse turning Panther. But once it gets missiles and spaded performance, it's actually a pretty decent plane at 8.3
I dont like to play the couger because the high modification upgrade costs (one of the highest in the game) and the repair cost
is the f9f worth grinding?
Hell no it's awful
xDessert new name for rasor?
random teammate, I have auto squad turned on
Good lord, what missiles are these?
I think they're AIM-9Bs?
Yep, AIM-9Bs. It's on their website and in the video at 0:37.
AIM-9B's. They have 10 G's max overload, and are relatively easy to dodge. However, I'm sure Defyn made them look like AIM-9J's :P
An Angry P-47 Yea lmao, he’s the Phly of Air RB. I’m researching the F104 rn and normally I’d just ditch the missiles when they’re as bad as these, but I think an F104 might actually be fast enough to make them effective, at least in a down tier.
Is the f9f-2 any good?
It's dogshit, don't waste your time getting it
@@TimeToUninstall Well I don't play the game anymore but thanks. lol
@@dinomra7771 All good. I don't blame you for not playing anymore, the developers have made WT a living hell.
Video request on the A4b or the A4E its now abit competetive bcus its gun pod got changed. Please ignore my prof pic
Maaaaaan .... Do you know how to play ...... Well sure you do ... Plz make tutorial for flying basics .
+
I personally hate that thing. At least it looks good tho
*cough* almost 800 battles in the f9f-8
Idk why but 1st
O
No
i cant get a good game out of this thing for shit, iv had better luck with the f-84
this plane is very difficult to fly, most of the time they will be higher and faster than you. Most of the time you will fight against 9.0-9.3!!!! Almost never with 7.3.-7.7. Unless you have an awesome skill , leave this plane for good.
