The American M48 Chaparral is one of the new vehicles added with the recent War Thunder update. It's an anti-air vehicle with essentially ground-launched AIM-9 sidewinder missiles. It is not great.

This Tank Is Pure Suffering - Hry
Basically, it would be good if the missiles weren't superelevated and if you could uncage the seeker. Right now it doesn't work against anything flying towards you or maneuvering in the slightest, and can't lock helicopters unless they are around 2-3km away. The York is just better. Also the MBT-70's round is, unfortunately, correct as it is now. However the meme still applies because XM885 is still missing like 40% of its penetration :)
York is painful its trigger fuze doesent work properly just use LAV-AD
At this point misile anti air are almost completely useless in their only role truly amazing
Day 68 of asking spookston to play the sturmpanzer
Basically, it would be good if you played the Chi Ha Navy Short Gun. pls bruh its like day 84
Holy shit spookston knows the missile words and stuff
It's just a LAV-AD without the fun part, only leaving the misery behind
'Improved' Chaparrel
And speed the bloody speed
Except it's not...the aim92s atleast can planes not paying attention
The LAV-AD would be pretty much objectively better if the stingers it had worked how they should. If you get a lock with IRST the stinger can launch regardless of the missile's seeker.
nuh,lav is better then this
Apparently the reason why the MIM-72C's are elevated like that is on the real system if the target is under 17 degrees it automatically elevates like that to loft the missile but will direct fire from above 17 degrees, however, gaijin couldnt get that system working so they just decided to make it always elevated
Too hard for soviet brain comrade (who knows why they didn’t make it so if you aim up past a certain degree, the missiles lift lmao)
Mistral is also modeled the same
@@LewisB3217Because they're too busy making Russian vehicles more overpowered than they already are while nerfing anything from America to the ground.
Classic gaijin spaghetti code
@@aiedenoldstien9751 perfectly balanced, as all things should be 😞
I think the Gajin paradox happens to you because it’s *you* killing so many ground targets that a large number come back in planes, hence you getting bombed
So plane are never at the back and always bombing/kamikaze the battle field.
The very definition of a Skill Issue. His Skill is so great that the enemies just want to bomb him quick.
I wish they gave the chaparral its windscreen so it didnt look so weird and flat, I also wish we got SPAA to fill in the gap between the m16 mgmc and m163 instead of stuffing more SPAA into top tier
What gap do you mean? You have the M19 and M42
@@fraservickers1257these spaa work better as tank than anti air
@@predatorx8434 thats probably because gaijin *in their infinite wisdom* didnt allow us or code it to have the guns fire in a sequence to make it seem like its firerate is boosted *as it was designed to* and instead just made you fire them both at once. :)
Oh they've tried and failed at least twice now, even made a big point of mentioning it as being fixed. They still fire together more often than not.
M77 Machinegun Chaffee when
Never gets tiring to smack cas players out of the sky
gook jumpscare
Half the time I just play anti-air I really do hate airplane helicopter
I only play fighters and AA for that reason, rest is light tanks
If planes are flying head on to me i would just mian gun them (They dont know i can move my gun up)
Fr
5:20 he literally just has to machine gun the 4 guys in the hot tub to kill you and he really shoots his main gun 2 times...
I think the reason why IR missiles track so bad in this game is that Gaijin is considering them tracking the hot nozzle of the engine, that's why they also have huge problem locking onto the helicopters at all, but irl there's also a giant cloud of hot air right behind it, not visible to the human eye, but still visible to the missile, and unlike the jet that can be easily obscured by the plane, the hot air around it is much more visible to a real missile which just isn't a thing in the game unfortunately.
Brøther, I crave the forbidden heat signature
**flys into the sun**
Attempt #20: KV-2 (ZiS-6).
The 107 one shots just about everything it pens, the armor can be good at times and paper at others, and an ok speed
Oke
The AP shell has really been kicked in the dick over time, still pretty good and fun
i absolutely despise fighting that thing with all of my heart
@@IGNEOUSROCKKbro it has kv-2 base tf u on about you can pen it even with long barrel 50mm on Pz 3
@@okand1921 maybe it's just because all the seal clubbers use it
2:00 the Mistral SATCP was tested on boats and theoretically should lock onto tanks like the BMP as well
Yea, but I think we all know Gajin wouldn't give something like that to America. Can't have the American vehicles outclassing daddy Russias vehicles.
@@aiedenoldstien9751he was talking about Mistral rockets bro, not American ones
I just wish IR missiles locked on aerial targets properely first - I'm looking at you helicopters.
It'd be nice to get like... the Linebacker or something.
Next update should be the linebacker and the Stryker SHORAD
That's just a Bradley with Stingers

Keep going, he’ll do it some day
I concur.
I concur
It would be great if he try the USSR 7.7 line up, the supposed biggest winner of BR change earlier

10:17 the worst is when you get CASed to death by an Air Force of like five planes, respawn in an SPAA and… they’re all gone.
Can you give Britain some love ? Play the Firefly and don’t forget to put in the title: “This tank kills tiger aces”.
Sometimes, when it does something.
Love the thing.
I mean, you're just playing a worse 76mm Sherman in my opinion but the sights and extra pen work wonders at killing pesky german TDs at range.
I have never played this game in my life but somehow watch every single one of these videos. They are neat. Spookston is chill .
Spookston is incredibly chill. Which is surprising with how toxic the War Thunder community can be.
My advice to you no matter how many warthunder videos you watch NEVER PLAY THE GAME its a painful experience
I highly recommend the m18 hellcat. Im pretty sure you would like it day 44
he has played it many times, but i also would like to see a new video on it
Yes, we all wanna see lower tier shenanigans 🐶
Would love to see a video on the M43 75/46 please
8:00 You were actually locked on the missile there. Happens a lot with Strela too, because it won't see a heli beyond 1.5km, but it will lock on the missile at any range (inside the lock range)
Attempt 17 of suggesting Spookston plays the british tortoise to see if he can do well with it
Do it with" day ... of..." template instead it may work better.
@@temkin9298 i sometimes miss a day so i'm going with attempt
That reticle being so low has to a bug surely if not it’s scuffed as hell
What I don't get is why they gave US "improvised" Chaparral, but not Mauler. Sergeant York is in the game in usable condition, Yak-141 is in the game too with armaments and avionics it COULD have gotten. Not to mention many other "what if" vehicles. So why not Mauler?
Mauler would be super hard to model - the missiles are effectively beam riders and the system, as built (which barely worked) could engage a singular target at time.
T249 would be a more interesting vehicle to add.
@@eaglesblades "which barely worked"
Yak-141...
@@TheArklyte Totally true my man but I'm unsure if WT has *any* beam riding guidance modeled.
It would be incredibly tough to use
@@TheArklyteIt's like that with a lot of Russian vehicles. A lot of parts that barely worked or prototypes that said they could do things on paper with no testing. Gajin just gives them all these abilities. Like the Object 279 being able to just ignore bombs.
Another good example is the Object 120. In testing. The vehicle itself would never be able to fire on the move. When they moved the vehicle, the entire cannon became dislodged and had to be put back into place. Though in War Thunder it is an 8.0 TD that can fight 11.0
@@eaglesbladesKh-66? Fireflash? It’s modelled.
A M163/Chapparel duo combo would have been fun if the enemy spammed the air.
Gaijin deliberately trying not to artificially nerf American tanks challenge (impossible)
You should try the T34, big gun enough to generate shrapnel to one shot something (the American 1)
Until Gajin decides that it is doing too well and nerfs it into the ground like most vehicles
@@aiedenoldstien9751 and Gaijin doesn't do the same for Russian and Soviet Tree cause it's Russian Bias
@@Tanker000 Most soviet vehicles are indeed Russian. Not all of them, but a lot of them.
@@aiedenoldstien9751 Because russia still cant make tank of its own in any numbers that mean something. I guess we will see T-90MS-MLD-M before russian army finally receive a new tank.
The American t34 is so good, it has to be one of my favorite tanks
Gajin casually laughing at America by giving a disappointing top tier AA instead of a mid tier one that would work for the tier.
All doing this while adding more and more powerful planes and tanks to literally every other tree. Especially the Russian tree.
Ask them where the T56 radar is for the M42. Ask them about the T52 Sherman. Ask them about the T77. Ask about the T22. Ask them about the T249. Ask them about the Avenger.
[This thread was hidden by the cOmMuNiTy]
Ask them where our HMC/GMC's are at while everyone else gets them. Ask them about the T37 light tank (two plane stabilized before the bulldog existed) since BTR's are multiplying. Where are the conventional turret US T54's at (105's and 120) when the Russians got another T-55 at 8.0?...

@@lector-dogmatixsicarii1537 But you find a crayon drawing of a tank made by a soviet child and send it to them. Premium tank that is unkillable
the MI-24 kinda has the ability IRL to lock R-60 onto ground targets (atleast on the P)
so yea why not implement that as a feature, since it would give these IR seeker based SPAAs some way to fight armor
This is my 1st attempt at asking spookston to play the stuh 42 since its a bit weird to me. Well I guess I know what anti air to avoid when i start grinding Israel.
Agreed, it’s very strong in my opinion
On paper the Israeli one might be better for more missiles since it gets a version with a stinger seeker, but still.
@@Martin-ot6kw I was talking about the StuH 42, sorry for not being clear.
@@CT-ww7yi I was purely replying to OP :p
I'd like to say a few things.
1. Back to asking for HEAT slinging lights, Day One of asking for the AMX-13-90
2. Spookston, love your videos. I learned alot of my War Thunder skills from watching you even before I had gone back to WT, and they always crack me up.
Babe, wake up. New Spookston video
Spookston not playing the Zachlam Tager is pure suffering
About the seeker being wayyyy lower than the reticle: if you scroll down a bunch you can make them line up and make it work, if a bit wonky when you go into 'sniper' view. works on the VAB SANTAL anyways
They fixed it in the Santal.
great video today, always interesting seeing these new vehicles🤣
Could you do the T26E1-1?
Funniest part about gaijin thinking ir missiles won’t lock helicopters is that there is so much footage of them doing so due to *recent events* and the fact that helicopters literally have flares don’t they? Why would they have flares if IR missiles couldn’t lock them
Spookston did you know On July 25, 1944, an Me 262 became the first jet airplane used in combat when it attacked a British photo-reconnaissance Mosquito flying over Munich. As a fighter, the German jet scored heavily against Allied bomber formations. U.S. Army Air Forces bombers, however, destroyed hundreds of Me 262s on the ground.
Hey Spook, you should play the Semovente 75/46 M43. It's a deeply overshadowed italian tank destroyer which can deliver an heavy punch but it's deeply ignored the potential it has. I am not gonna surrender in proposing this.
(Day 87)

I absolutely love how you added the flood theme when the enemy tanks appeared on the minimap. brings back memories (and ptsd)
The four dudes just sitting side by side is what makes it top tier
On the ir missiles. They will hit you when youre doing everything to escape including a lot of flares, but completely miss in a headon
Spookston you should play the russian traktor tank destroyer, the Zis-30, its so hilarious to play with its wacky suspension and to use in an uptier day 30
That smoke effect was sick. Also, M163 and Chaparral next to each other supporting each other is historically accurate
the planes thing is confirmation bias in a nutshell
play the best anti air the pbv301!
Maybe try out the Object 685 ? It's been in the game for quite sometime now but no one is using it
1:34 His position is being approached! They’re finding where he isn’t and where he wasn’t!
the Israeli one has different missiles including MIM-72E with the smokeless motor and MIM-72G that has ECCM, but it does have a battle rating of 10.3 compared to 9.3 of the US one that only gets MIM-72A and MIM-72C.
Can you play the su-100p, would love to see u play it.
Hey i think you’d have a great time in the funny Bt-7A. Vast versatile and scouting.
Always happy and waiting for videos.
Keep up the great work and always give yourself a break when you need it.
The Type 91, a short-range missile with an imaging seeker, not being able to lock helicopters past 3km and not being able to maneuver to kill anything below 1km: "You get used to it."
It’s a good day when spook uploads, how about the new 10M spook?
Please play the 8.3 M3 Bradley
1:34 the mic'ed up squad of up tiered T72 Turms start approaching
Legend has it, that Type 16's turret is still rolling to this day.
0:55 ye I said the same thing 22 years ago 💀💀
(This is a joke I’m not even that old)
Can you play the VIDAR? that thing is pure balance with thermals, laser rangefinder and 61mm HE with over 900m/s at 7.7, so fun to fight that in a medium tank on Maginot or something like that you tank will just randomly explode.
T32 from last video seeing this update going live like:
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
Fucking VIDAR at the same BR
French thing with turbo missiles at 7.3
400pen HEAT artillery at 6.0 (2 of them)
T-55 premo for the Soviets at 8.0
Another BTR chucking fully automatic APDS at fair and balans BR
Another ZSU-57-2 where the WW2 tanks be

and at the bottom of all this is some retard saying this is fine.
Chaparral crew totally not getting harmed by rocket exhaust going into their faces
"the missile knows where it is at all times by knowing where it is not"
Spookston I really appreciate if you could make a video on the Jagtiger or the Tiger 2h? You havent made a video on a German vehicle for quite a while and are constantly making videos on US vehicles.
Because they suck, boomcalat

Celere sahariano I think
@@mote_vengador2832you got it perfectly
This is so relatable to an old Planetside 2 player.

Love the unloved M47 Patton day 49.
Howdy! Thank you for another day of wonderful content! Please play the chubby Bulldog!

"...the moment you want planes to appear, they just dont."
can relate as an air superiority player, spawned a fighter after got bombed to oblivion and all enemy CAS just gone without a trace
Okey Spookston could you please play the Strv 103C?
Day 3 of asking spook to play the SU-122
Spookston inciting his missiles to violence is just the best
I like the attempts at communicating to the missile what it's supposed to do. "GO, KILL"
Before you said it was derived from M113. I never knew it was, it looked so diff
The reticle is like that because irl you'd have to superelevate before actually firing the missile and this is the best way of kinda replicating that. At least that's how stingers work, so I'm assuming it's the same here
For video recommendations I would recommend the Strv 103 (feels like that vehicle should have a video) and the Pbv 302 (BILL) if you're feeling like using a ATGM carrier. Both are fairly fun vehicles.
I love how you got really into blasting the Air targets with the sidewinders 😂
Just listening to you yelling get him and kill em had me rolling
I always imagine that Raiden and Bladewolf art when Spookston send a missle
I didn't think anything could be worse than the stingers, now an elevated caged hot tub mobile has appeared.
These 4 dudes at the front...no cover...no nothing must be feeling comfy asf
7:37 - Thank you for including this certified hood classic.
I will never play top tier but there is something satisfying about seeing a far away dot go *boop*
"Dont complain about CAS you should just spawn AA"
Most rivetting AA gameplay:
It's not base on the M 113. Way back when i was in the U.S. Army they had these vehicles and ammo carriers for the precursor to the Paladin artillery system based on the M730 tracked chassis, created on the basis of M548, and M54 launcher.
3:47 you got first strike for that kill. That was the first kill of that game!
Hearing you cheer for the missile to kill reminds me of Nixon cheering for a squirrel to fall off a power line in Futurama.
2:03
Ok that meme sent me for a second there…that had no right to be that funny.
The rocket sees the heat signature of the jet, it is very hot, and this trail is easy to detect even from a great distance. Helicopters do not have a jet trail, but only exhaust gases, like a car, and the exhaust gases are much colder. Therefore, it is more difficult to target a helicopter than a plane.
Good to know I'm not the only one who spawns in an SPAA only to find nobody on the enemy team is playing CAS.
I had a micromachine of this thing when I was little and I've gotta say, it looked a lot more impressive in miniature.
"If they turn at all these missiles are basically useless."
Literally every WT Sidewinder model in a nutshell.
I love how heatseekers have an easier time locking and tracking drones than helicopters with massive engines…
12:45 I totally didn't hear the effect your played for that wingless jet. What I heard was
_LEEERROOOOOOOOOOOOY JENKINNNNNNNNNNNNNNS_
It'd be real neat to see spookston play the conqueror
I love seeing the little barbershop quartet all sitting in the front of this thing 😂
Is that 4 guys sitting next to each other out in the open? That cannot be safe.
Just wanted to say it's somewhat realistic that the heli would keep going after losing the tail. The tail rotor is just there to stop counter rotation from the main blades, but if the heli is already moving forwards, if there is enough air moving over the airframe, it would keep it straight(ish) by aerodynamics alone. Belly slide landing would be required, but I would want to be given the chance to try instead of it just being counted dead as soon as the tail rips of. I've had flying-wing style aircraft lose the tips of the wings and count the plane as dead, but enough of the control surfaces are still intact that I can still manuver the plane well enough to land if not well enough to still fight. I would love a system where the player has to decide by ejecting or not if the vheicle is recoverable instead of the game deciding it for the player.
SANTAL has the offset seeker (and uncaged) as well, but actually maneuver to hit the target.
Some people claim to see that turret is still rolling, even to this day.
You gotta remember that the early versions could only lock onto the tailpipes of aircraft. Had an incredibly hard time locking onto head-on targets
nice to see the MBT-70 gameplay
A Gavin carrying missiles? Mike Sparks would never.
