    I enjoyed flying the F7Fs, especially when it was at 6.0 in RB, the better engines of the F7F-3 when you get downtiered when it was at 6.0 meant that outside of bombers and Do-335's, you will be the highest-flying fighter if you were to climb at ideal rate. I still occasionally take out my F7F-3 for a few matches when I get annoyed at the top tier shenanigans.
    For anyone that is wondering, the 20mm cannons for both variants are under the nose, the 12.7mm heavy machine guns are on the wing roots, also this wasnt touched on but was shown in the video, that all 3 bombs (at least for the F7F-3) drops independently, meaning that in one run, you can bomb 3 targets

      They're good in naval EC bc you'll see plenty of destroyers. They work well against those, but against battleships, you're going to have to settle for breaking turrets.

    If you like this plane then you will also like the Ta-154. It has a lot of the same strengths and weaknesses. Heavy firepower and good speed but it also has a lower BR so it gets better match making.

    This thing is an absolute ripper in GRB. The 20s make mincemeat (top down that is) of anything that isn't a heavy tank. I don't even usually bring bombs or rockets because they're so good. The F7F-1, F7F-3 and AM-1 as CAS, T34, T30, and M26E1 as tanks is a killer combo that makes heaps of money.

    I hate that the production F7F is the premium version
    essentially limiting the F7F-1 to backseat status, and if you want a tigercat that can ground strike better and has better engines (the naval mine is better than the US 2000 lbs bomb, pound for pound) you're screwed.
    Just of the many times gajibbles has done this because reasons

  • @CharliMorganMusic
    @CharliMorganMusic Před 2 lety

    The premium version is exceptionally good in naval RB. It can actually climb high enough to take out bombers and it's very rare that anyone actually brings a proper fighter to deal with it. Great secondaries and a ridiculously good burst mass.

  • @Groffili
    @Groffili Před rokem

    Like the Tigercat, but I have to admit that when it comes to the twin-engined superprops, I prefer the Britsh Hornet. It's not quite as well-armed, but does perform a notch better.
    And... though that is personal preference... I like the looks more.

      It’s just as fast if not faster than most superprops. It’s energy retention is good and it has great firepower. Obviously it’ll get out turned by a super spitfire, but… duh.
      And it has a good ordinance.

      @@PerryCaulkins Faster yes, acceleration is worse however. Not to mention single engine superprops climb better, turn better, dive near equal and have more than enough firepower. Couple extra 20s and .50s doesn't matter if you can laugh at the F7Fs nose authority at any speed.
