The Soviet RBT-5 rocket artillery tank is probably one of the dumbest tanks in War Thunder. I mean that in a good way. It's not only a lot of fun but also very meta since it is just a BT-5 with torpedos strapped to it. It's also surprisingly cheap for a rare event vehicle, only going for around 60 Gaijin coins.

The Rare Soviet Sturmtiger - Hry
most accurate russian artillery
A successful strike! That building poses a threat to comrade Ke-Ni!
U don't need to be accurate if ur bomb has large damage area
What’s the point of precision if you’re gonna wipe out the entire grid square
it's accurate when everything is the target 😊
Imagine the RBT-5 available to play in the game Enlisted.
You got me into this game, and after a month of non-stop gameplay I burned myself out. But watching you play is always a treat. Thank you
Only a month ?
And to know you got the best part. The game only gets worse after that
You gonna dieee
Youll be back in no time. We all were back at it at some point.
@@TheKenji2221 well WT is not for everyone me included, its fun at first but I lost patience after realising i have to unironically remember all the bs maps and engine sounds
I don't blame you
Fun fact, when first introduced the rockets could depress to shoot at targets up close however people complained it was OP (understandable when you are shooting SturmTiger equivalent rockets at tanks with tinfoil armor played by Newbies), so they nerfed it to have +9 degrees of gun depression.
People were running it in top tier and smashing MBTs
@@kirotheavenger60 I can imagine someone doing that then just pasting "We call this a difficulty tweak" in chat.
@@kirotheavenger60 There were no proper MBTs back then
There is now
Try the SU 122,it's a Russian TD who is at 2.3, its armor is crazy strong and the tank is very very fast, and its cannon destroys everything
he already did a couple times I'm pretty sure
my bad he didn't I thought he did
2.2 lol
2.2 br doesnt exist
why though? it's just boring,borderline OP, and literally everyone plays it
@@user-fe7bo5mm1o he hasn't.
This thing isn't anything like the Sturmtiger, it's actually fun and useful. I didn't see you get shot in the rocket and blown up, and when you lob them randomly across the map, things actually have exposed crew to die to the explosion.
I earned 1 mil recently by playing german 6.0 always opening with the Sturmtiger getting like 3 kills.
Sturm is super good and a lot of fun it’s just not something you can play quickly or recklessly you need to be more methodical
Wasn't the first death from the rockets? Or just normal ammo rack?
The sturmtiger is fun. You can catch people off guard by ambushing them and just blasting them in the face and being frontally impenetrable at an angle or sniping with the range finder
Sturmtigers also can just stay behind a treeline covered in 300 layers of bushes and get kills since they're basically *the* German artillery tank
This is my favorite tank in the whole game. I have the most matches and kills with it.
(Edit): 2:30 The minimum range on level ground is exactly 252 meters. If you fire the rockets forward without adjusting the rangefinder, they will land 250m ahead.
wow, how many rocket kills do you think you have?
@@Just_A_B3AN Probably around 2000. And I'd say probably 65% of those kills are from the start of the match when people are sitting on the flag capping. The most kills I've gotten with one rocket is 4 on European Village.
HOLY SHIT FEMBOYS⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@Snack-Sized-Femboy wow, that's crazy, well done
@@newfalljag Bro is down bad. 😐
"How do we not pen a stuart!?"
You tell me, playing in a M5A1 and I couldn't pen a puma at point blank range with bri'ish AP shells
The IS-6 is pure stalinium and it’s very fast for a heavy. Without a doubt one of the best premium at Russia’s disposal, you should definitely give it a shot
pretty sure he play’d it
still the best with even just Some skill
Is6 at the current state of the game is not that good, I mean, in a downtier or in it's br is pretty good, but even at 7.7 there's too many tanks with heat and better reload than you, and at 8.0 and 8.3 tanks start to have apfsds and missiles, and it costs a lot of ge
"pure stalinium"
>Dies to M-51
@@heliogonzalezsanchez8227 I'd say the IS-6 is the one heavy tank that is the exception to your concern. Pay attention and you can just get out of the way of a problematic target. Your heavy tank turns into a medium tank. Workable situation.
I love the memes you put in the intro of your videos, keep up the great work mate! Also, can you play the Soviet T-35? :)
The T-35 is my low tier tank of choice. Just a copious amounts of dakka and the guns punch very hard for 1.3.
I personally love the T-35 as much as I have love for the Porsche Tiger, the survivability in 1.3 is crazy (even if you’re a sandbag for half that time) and when you have all cannons facing the same way you feel like a landship
@@NaturalGarethFan unfortunately you can no longer fire both secondary cannons on the same target. Used to be my favorite thing to line up all 3 cannons and just let loose.
Can you make a video on the Machbet or the Vulcan, while trying to use it as a tank destroyer against enemy tanks? I think the Machbet is my favorite at top tier Israel
I recently saw the RBT while playing low tier Sweden , thought to myself "I haven't seen a RBT in a while" and what do you know Spookston makes a video on it.
They’re always a priority target to take out. Definitely haven’t noticed very many of them recently.
1:06 "How do we non-pen a Stuart"
Shooting through a solid stone wall probably had something to do with it
Wow, it really has similar tnt equivalent to the Sturmtiger (130kg compared to 135kg for the Sturmtiger). Didn't think these tank torpedos were THAT big. Also please play the Foch
19 kills in one life is crazy. I remember the best match I ever had in pure kills was over 20, I think it was 22 but it also took 3 or 4 deaths. I did land an amazingly sweet IL-2 rocket as well, but most of the kills came from a T-50 so it was also low tier and Russian. But the worst part was my team still managed to lose lol. The game just favors APHE so stupidly in my opinion but the 45mm gun is definitely one of the best at low tier. It makes even really mediocre tanks like the T-26 viable.
Honestly I find the Vickers Mk. E perfectly acceptable as well with its 37mm Bofors, but then again I am used to dealing with silly cannons and I play the whole 6-ton lineup far too much in the first place. I don’t get why people say it’s a mediocre tank though.
@@NaturalGarethFan Is that the Finnish tank? The one the Russians copied to make the T-26? Because I too think that's a better tank than the T-26 but it's adequate. It doesn't do anything especially well but it does enough to be viable. The T-26 at least has the benefit of the game's ridiculous modeling of APHE.
And just to clarify, I know the Vickers 6 ton was a British export tank, not a Finnish tank. I just meant in the game it only shows up in the Finnish subtree.
@@adamg7984 the T-26 was copied from the Vickers E, not the other way around
@@emperororca9479 That's what I said, yes. I could have worded it better but I said they copied for the T-26. Not that they copied the Vickers E from the T-26. I'll fix the wording to make it more clear.
@@adamg7984 thank you, sorry for the misunderstanding
This might be my new favorite video of yours. So funny lolol.
Please for the love of whatever there is out there, do the Super Pershing :_(
It's so cool!! I love that you could become an artillery support with that thing, kinda wish that there's an infantry or spotter to guide the target
I do this with my buddies a 8.3. I'll be in the 15cm sig and they'll be using squad ping for me to eyeball. It's a fun time.
@@lord0fmemes266 that sounds like a great time!!
Ok I have to ask, does ANYBODY know where spookston gets those dog/cat imaged he uses in the videos as reactions? I cannot explain how much I love them, I adore them so much to the point it's irrational. I make sure to screenshot pretty much every single one, they're hillarious.
+1 on this, ive seen a couple but id love to see more
I have this tank, but rarely use it, but its stupid fun. On Cargo Port, i had capped the A point, and had eyes on a M8 that was across the road near B. So figured i would try and use the rockets. Launched one, hit the building three stories above him, and the splash damage alone killed him. And that was not adjusting the range.
How do you get it?
so, look on the ussr tree. on the right there are golden vehicles(premiums) that you buy using golden eagles(for money) and you should find it there
@@artyonai it’s not there tho???
@@rhystregeagle8768 Again, look at the ussr tree, the golden vehicles, at BR 1.3 there is RBT-5
My only complaint with this vehicle is how long the rockets take to reload (but that also goes for rockets in general tbh)
Edits on point as always. You put a lot of effort in and I appreciate the quality videos you make. May I suggest with the halo noises we could get a cursed halo mod video?
In the olden days when White Rock was still in common rotation, using this on the earthen embankments around the fortress to kill 6.7+ you were a terror to king tigers.
biblically accurate bt5
Your videos gives me some joy after hard day of grinding, tysm
Love your vids, keep up the work!
I used to have the respawning vehicles/trees/debris quite often. Many games where I was using HE it'd even respawn before I reloaded, making certain shots completely impossible unless I could take it down with my MG (if I had one). That's one of many bugs Gaijin refuses to address and one of the reasons I don't play anymore.
you should do a colab vid with a few other dudes all with RBT-5s and just go to a captured point and spam rockets at a decided target
at the rate you replenish them, you'd shoot a rocket every 4s
absolute mayhem
Yo Spookston.
First I really love your videos whether they are about the history of tanks or gameplay.
Second now that you played the BT with Rockets you should play the latest event vehicle. The Andryusha.
It's really bad but extremely fun at the same time.
Omg I love watching you when you are havng fun. It's great
Love the video, but can you try the chieftan 5? It is a very nice looking tank and one of my all time favourite ~9.0 tanks (to play with [team] or against.)
Spookston, i would love to see you play the SU-100Y its one of my favorite premium tank, if you love a huge naval gun strapped on a tank and being able to 1 shot a panther from the upper plate, its great, if you counter the reload.
Man spooky I really do love your editing and presintation style simple deadpan comedy 😂
It was nice seeing you have a lot of fun in this video. That's what War Thunder *should* be; Fun.
You should play the British tier 2 Sarc MKVI 6Pdr. It is very fast ( I call it the Super Awesome Race Car ). It has the British 6 pounder and is very good for 3.3. It goes by no armor best armor and if you get shot in the turret you die no matter what ( 3 crew, 2 in turret). It’s got a .50 cal on top for AA and shredding milk trucks. It’s funny because it recoils a ton, and no matter what will land on its wheels probably to counter the recoil. I also think that the crusader II is fun. It’s I think 2.0ish and is super fast, good fun and I believe ( in a British tank) APHE. it is great for capping points, running along the sides and flanking the enemy.
Crusader II is 3.3, first crusader is 2.7
@@wokedog1799 ok, thanks for letting me know I will change it : )
Watching your videos got me back into warthunder I burnt out a bit ago but now I'm back I'm actually having fun
low tier is always fun
I could have watched you play that for another 20 minutes, favorite Spookston episode so far
Suggestion: since neither you or Oddbawz change tanks (i.e. die) in matches a lot so you don't normally take out lineups, I was thinking you two could team up for an ultimate GErmoney cancer lineup, Leo 1, M48, Marder 1, Ru251, Wiesel, BMP1, M41 (HEAT bulldog), Ar234, Do335
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.
(Day 40)
Spook! Highly requesting video on the Bm-13n sometime in the future. It’s so fun to play at any tier, even up to like 6.7
spookston definitely has a killer gaming char
Nothing like a smöl tank with two huge fuck-off rockets. Great vid as usual!
I also would like to see your take on certain low-tier tanks of each nation (M2A2, Pz. III B or Sd. Kfz. 221, T-60, A13 Mk I or Light AA Mk I, Ha-Go or I-Go Ko, Chinese Sd. Kfz. 222, AB 41 or L6/40, AMC.34 YR or FCM.36, and the Strv m/38 or the Pvlvv fm/42). Totes not to make you suffer. Pinkie promise.
I suggest to play the EBR(1951). Yesterday I had a match with 16 kills, I believe that you would enjoy it.
Awesome vid, and especially appreciated since Odd and Phly are apparently not doing videos right now.
I love playing the Chi-Ha short gun (12cm) cause you can lop the shell across the map like with the RBT-5s rockets
You should try the tiger1 only using the PZGR shell.
Hey spookston! I have a challenge for you. I want you to play the Italian Ottomatic. It's really fun to play as a tank destroyer in my experiences with it. I think you will like it too. (Day one)
Love the longer videos
i would highly recommend using 2 buttons and mousewheel to set the range for vehicles like this, so for normal shots you can use mouswheel and for the rockets you can use buttons to quickly set it to a rough distance and correct with mousewheel
Try the spj fm43/44, it is an absolute blast, you fire shells with the same explosive Mass as a kv2, but with a lower reload, faster movement, and a lower br
It has one of the fastest reloads of a 150mm gun
Try the chruchill gun carrier. Its exactly the opposite of the kind of tank you lile, being a british heavily armored TD, but at 2.7 its basically invincible when angled and its gun is one if the few things capable or reliably wrecking stuG's and t-34 from the front
I played WT first shortly after the British came out, Stopped years since. I am glad the ol' 3-inch gun carrier is the same as always. I used to call the grind on British low-tier as "metal diet" where you gain points by eating shots and maybe farming assists.
@@willyvereb yea, its basically a box of tungsten until something flanks you
@@tomasmisek5598 shoebox Sherman gaming
The best part of the video is your frantic mouse scrolling everytime you adjust your sight
3:14 I appreciate the slide whistle into seismic charge immensely
Could you please do a video on the British Striker 😊🙏. Please Mr Spook
Could ya do the T-90A I’d like to see it’s eyes in action
I love that you made the rockets work
I love how you can hear him scrolling his mouse as fast as possible to get a shot off
Can't believe after all these updates the engine noises are still borked and Flakpanzers are still missing their crew while some tanks can fire their guns with no crew in them.... Warthunder truly deserves all those negative reviews.
You should try the Crusader III (the one with the 57mm gun) I haven't played it in a while but last time I did I had multiple 10+ kill games because it's actually really good and low tier be like that sometimes
It is good Spookston that you have finally experienced the joy of indirect fire.
Far better than trying to fight fender-to-fender.
That's why this game needs a proper matchmaking. It's not ok when a new player with a couple of hours in game goes in the same match with a monstrosity who has several thouthands of hours in it. Other than that it's a fun video. Thanks a lot. 👍
Spookston can you give the M19A1 a try. Its surprisingly good at it br and in uptiers. It fires fast and reloads fast. Hopefully its worth a shot.
3:00 Ah yes, this is definitely "realistically possible." I'm sure it happened a lot during WW2, Gaijin.
Hey spookston I love your videos I am such a huge fan
It's not a real day without watching at least one spookston video.
Day 4 or 5 (i cant remember lol) of asking for a 250K subscriber Q&A. Crazy how fast this channel has grown, really shows how much you deserve with your fun, interesting videos. Keep up the good work man!
another very cool, unique vehicle locked behind a battlepass/event. Thanks Gaijin!
it hurts the most when he says 'my playing is off today' but he's playing the exact same as how you do.
I love how you can just hear him aggressively using the scroll wheel to range his enemies
Spookie you should really be play the M728 CEV in the US. It’s really unconventional in it’s playstyle and I think you’d enjoy it!
Spookston your videos are the best
This was just great.
I'm surprised this isnt seen more even though it's not as easy to get. Also I'd love to see you play a crusader
8:35 No one expects the pocket Daimler
Bought it right after getting this YT notification. Now I have both exclusive BT's.
hey! i would really love to see a type 62 video, as that seems like a vehicle you would enjoy playing.
gotta love the ke-ni pop in and out of existence
Great work.
Credit where Credit's due, that Stuart at 8:15 knew how to be slippery. You can pen it's front with a pop tart, so it has to move in a way to minimize damage, and it did so. Your aim wasn't bad, he just swung around in directions to have you only kill one of his crew, not all of it. That's actually a pretty good play honestly.
3:13 the seismic bomb sound has never been more fitting
Me wakes up:
Realize I exist: Day ruined
Checks CZcams:
New Spookston video: Day much better
Your animal memes are the best man
@3:00 working exactly as intended according to Gaijins' latest Q&A post. And the sound/visual glitches are due to client ping issues, not Gaijins' problem.
I actually bought this on a whim like 6 months ago and it’s hilarious to use
7:25 spookston out here playing battleship while everyone else is playing warthunder
Must be so strange to sit there chilling and than you hear the tink of being hint. You look around and find nothing. Then you get hit again wonder where the fk it came from. Then suddenly you your tank explodes. Now I don't know what the killcam would look like but that would certainly be interesting
If you want to hit close range targets, drive at the enemy and slam on the brakes, your nose will be forced down and it will solve the depression proplem.

Would love to see the sd kfz 222 some time soon!
The seismic charge sound effect: absolute bliss
i've only just noticed, but the chains and headlights make this vehical a happy frog wit hbig hat.
The sound of you wildly scrolling your mouse wheel to set the range hahaha
You should do a video on all the low tier gremlin tanks, like the puma and the m22 up to prob the Hellcat at, like, 5.7 (Idk, I took a guess here), where they aren't just used as annoying mini tanks, but where they can actually front line lol
The noises younmade when you blind fired and gott just a hit where so fucking funny
man ur videos are so funny bro
Spookston for the love of all that is holy, there are KEYBINDS to range the sights! It allows you to smoothly change the range instead of rolling the mouse wheel like a madman. The setting is near the bottom of the controls screen in the tank section.
“Tvarish, we don’t have any artillery pirces!”
*My son, you ARE the artillery!*
Great video ❤
That was the funniest battles what i ever saw from you. I literally feel their struggle and suffering when you just shoot over house roofs with the rockets like an artillery. :D :D
spookston you should play any british low tier tank with the 2 pounder, but with stock accuracy and shells, it will be fun i promise

alright the first meme got me you have good humor
