Which side of the armrest is really yours at a movie theater?

$75? For that price, i'd much rather get myself Helldivers 2 and then eat pretty damn well for the rest of the month with what's left over.

20:35 I love how you can just watch that missile outright go 'nope' and veer hard for the ally jet in the back. And then the pay off several seconds later...

05:37 Shout-out to Zuit for his cunning use of flags, and to Bo for knowing the reference. :D

We need to teach you personal space...

8:20 almost sounded like you had a cloaker chasing you

Just remember, thats the price of a full fidelity DCS module. But it's on sale right now so that's really at least 2 high fidelity modules. Still. The best and only WT content I consume anymore. Thanks Bo!

With sarcasm: Gaijin doesn’t sell top tier premiums…they sell premiums at one rank below the highest rank. They don’t base the term “top tier” on BR.

6:00 So what I'm hearing is that the British are just the ultimate loot goblins lol

8:47 , zut did the maverick thingy "good morning aviators"

12.0 for this thing without the conformal CRMS pod or AMRAAMs is a yikes... should really have waited a couple patches before adding it, but hey, Gaijin moment

How about we talk about the $120 German tiger premium

75 USD for one vehicle? I could get a full game for that. Am I that out of the loop on modern premium vehicle prices? (although, only premiums I bought were Prinz Eugen and HSF Harekaze in WoWs)

you can supercruise with this thing especially if you have 2 9L and 7F with a 45% fuel load, and at 6km you can go Mach 1.09 without afterburner

Great video Bo and Happy Birthday! I was excited and had high hopes for this plane sad to see its a $75 premium and not at all worth it for its BR.

if you want this plane, highly recommedn waiting for sale, if u arent even to 11.0 jets in the tech tree yet, dont think about buying it because u will not have fun

That Eddie Izzard reference was spot on and I loved it. xD 👍

The Centauro 120 is an even more egregious premium, since it's a copy of the best vehicle in the Italian tech tree.

5:50 You could also ask Hawaii locals about how they feel...

The best Northrop vehicle ever made is the mailcat. Change my mind

I would love to see Bo play Helldivers 2 with the group, its the perfect game for you all!

I did my full USA Air grind with the F4S

That went Topgun/Ace Combat really quickly.

6:16 😱 Did Bo just refer to one of my fav comedians/actors!?

I appreciate Stick's drop tank joke as things were getting chaotic. xD

The MiG-28 is my favorite fighter jet! I’m so glad Gaijin finally added it

6:27 hoarders is a funny way of pronouncing "collectors" 😂

When bo when into the canyon all I could hear was Eddie from stealth saying "goodbye Lieutenant" before he crashed😂

remember, no one owns it until they have a flag. Ironically, the British museum actually has preserved some items that would have been lost otherwise because they had the funds to spare to preserve the items

No one: This plane costs $75 and is a mistake Bo's Wallet: take my money

I appreciate what you all do TBLF ^^ Anyone else having a chuckle at the TBLF members who live in USA going on about British colonizing countries that already have people living there?

I Loved it when you said, Stranger Danger have an AIM-9

Definitely waiting for next Christmas before I even think about getting this thing

THATS WHAT THE SOUND IS I just now realized the jets when flying past sound like the Wraith from Stargate Atlantis.

lol loved watching this aircraft in the anime area 88 as a kid.

Its the F-5H (aka Hot-Rod edition)!

It would be good they implement some system where you have to have gotten to a certain point in the game to be allowed to buy a plane of this br. Otherwise this really makes a good premium, it’s not too different in gameplay to other things but it’s unique historically. Price wise yeah $75 is a lot but it’s not unusual for war thunder unfortunately

The conversation you had early on about whether to buy it or not is very similar to the conversation that went on at DoD and Defense ministries in other parts of the world. Great fighter, massive improvement over the F-5, but...the F-16 and F-15 were already a thing. It didn't help that marketing the F-20 to foreign countries was done strictly through the State Department, who had no interest in selling the F-20 in particular to anyone. After several years, three prototypes, and lots of interest but no buyers, the project was cancelled. Another Northrup project of that era however had a happy ending: the B-2 Spirit. I seriously doubt you'll ever see it War Thunder (pun intended), and if you did, it would be nerfed to hell.

its nut that br and still engaging at 2km with those planes. always thought high br planes did the long distance engagements

It's not even that planes aren't worth the price, imo, it's that the gameplay on offer isn't worth the price. I'd pay $75 for a plane I wanted if I could play it in a bigger and more immersive game mode, but the gameplay on offer is more akin to what I'd expect to spend $0.25 on in an arcade.

I was waiting for this video as Bo has always shown whether a vehicle is fun over whether it's "good" or "balanced". While it looks like it has its moments, I think I'll give this one a miss until the next sale.

“There was a bridge there!” 💀😂

Great video

I've been loving it, as an avid lover of the f5e, this tickles me in all the right places from thrust to maneuverability only aircraft I enjoy as much and more right now is the f15 in terms of top tier aircraft

yes the "road map" is good

I mean, Zuit is right by calling it an F-5, considering it was initially the F-5G

4:47 could have used his turn like sides ways turn to get threw that with f20 very easily but he was getting chased so he prob didnt think that

0:37 my average experience with teammates

Now the F-5E they just added, that thing is awesome

Fun fact: the F-20 has the same base engine as the JAS-39, though Volvo Aero developed it a bit for the Gripen to be more tolerant to bird strikes, and with better engine control.

I was wondering when we’d see a Bo f20 video, the true MiG 28 😂

Don't get me started on the inaccuracies with this thing. The radar is wrong (it needs TWS, despite what Gaijin say), the engine is anaemic, and it turns like a boat. Not worth the money at all, which is a shame, as I was tossing up between the F-4 and the F-20.

Just wait until BVR and fox-3 arrives next patch because bet that wont he higher than 13.0 so this'll get to fight that

YOoooooo! Another upload!

Happy (day late) Birthday Bo!

Let’s get to work, Tiger-shark!

let's do a bit of a comparison ja37d viggen 360 flares 6 aim9Ls good radar amazing turn time great acceleration br. 11.3 f20 Tigershark 45 flares 6 aim9Ls good radar amazing turn time great acceleration br 12.0 costs 75 dollars Gaijin, reduce this thing to 11.7 , it does not hold up in toptier

Thank you for the review. $ 75.00 is not cheap

Bo, my Italian F-16A got its wing drop tanks, so I don't need my centerline tank anymore. Not sure if it's compatible, but it's all yours if it'll help.

$75 for an experimental aircraft that didn't even participate in any combat? Was it even battle proven? That damned snail...

I hope war thunder will add my favorite aircraft the f/a-18

The War Thunder folks should add the YF-12A/F-12B to the game as a premium.

I really love watching you guys, especially because you have a normal gameplay. Beeing half british i don´t know if americans should say something about invading and taking resources, i mean the USA has done this more often in his short History then the UK.

I was wondering when the Eddie Izzard quote would come up about flags...

This is the crew I wish I had.

While this video was a lot of fun to watch, I do think I'ma pass on the F-20 after seeing this. It does seem like a very capable jet, but miiiiight be punching just outside its weight class a bit at 12.0. Thanks for the amazing content, guys! AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY BO!

Using Ace Combat 5's F-20A's weapon Loadout and settings

If we have this we should get the super tomcat

I wish they’d given the F-4 and F-105 their underwing fuel tanks. The F-4 rarely carried the centerline tank except on long range escort or long distance base to base transfer flights. And an F-105 without those underwing tanks would have run from MiGs and be on its way home while meeting at least one tanker. Really every modern-ish (has an afterburner) jet fighter should have their fuel tanks. It’s kind of dumb to leave them off so many planes. EDIT: And former whale or not there is no way in hell I’m spending $75USD on a pixel plane that’s almost as good as what’s in the Tech Tree. That much money could finish the research and fully spade multiple vehicles.

I still remember that shooting range video when they said "we will never add top tier jet premiums" im 99% positive that video is still up. Either way the F20 is beautiful and more people will buy it to strictly bomb with it. I'm almost positive you can't even get a single base with it! Also another Abrams is surprising but more freedom is good. Finally, it was only a matter of time before they added a T80 premium. Since the Click-Bait came I KNEW a T80 premium would come and here it is. Don't be surprised if a Leo 2A5 comes soon too

Attempt number 1101: Please try out the Stridsvagn M/42 Delat Torn. (Labelled as the Strv. M/42 DT in the Swedish Tech Tree.)

The grippen sounded like a cloaker when it was behind you

Granted....$75 for a vehicle alone is a bit much, however if I have to say, it's a lot better then spending $2000 for an IS-7 or $500 for a Rank II vehicle like on Gaijin Market....I mean if I'm going to spend $75 on WT, I rather get multiple vehicles then just one...still it's nice to see the F-20A in the game.

hippity hoppity your country is now my property slaps union jack on it

The great irony of making this the $75 premium is that the actual F-20 was designed to be much less expensive than competing planes like the F-16 so that America's more cash-strapped allies could have a competitive fighter they could afford.

Bo get you own drop tanks as zuit paid for his own and thats why he can brag about them. Great video Bi, Stick and Zuit

i can forgive but i will never forget what you did to my f-16a :(

Missile knew where it was 😅

5:46 Which islands? You’ll have to narrow it down by quite a bit.

I wonder if they'll ever add in the X-29?

love how every member of TBLF has their own unique flavor of failing trust exercises, ranging from 'genuinely apologetic' to 'slow-burn Machiavellian betrayal'

Tbh if it was like $50 it would be worth it. It handles well and rolls better then most planes. But 75$ is way to much

Right unless you’re the aisle seat then you get both.

seems like a decent enough aircraft, but maybe a bit expensive for what ya get.

Me every time I see a new video:😮

75 dollars for a game thats been highly anticipated and requested is a crime in of itself

aim9 is the TK god of AA missiles

"They are charging $75 for this? This is a mistake..." No, it's normal operating procedures for Gaijin. Some of the digital representations of a vehicle/boat/plane only available in their shop cost more than complete, decent games. Often just copy/pasted versions of vehicles that already exist in the game. No Man's Sky complete cost less than that, and they've been supplying FREE DLC's and enhancements for nearly a decade. Everything they do is for revenue, from the deliberate introduction of vehicles at obviously low BR, the never ending grind to encourage players into using $ directly or $ through GE to buy their way through, the so called "events" (now nearly constant) that further adds to the grind, with an extra incentive of some "gift" vehicle to entice those afflicted with FOMO. And don't forget the "market" where they actively manipulate the prices by removing vehicles then adding them back temporarily to make them "rare", raise the price, increase their cut. Sure, they are in it to make money, to pay wages etc... but they go way too far compared to what they give back.

So, BR needs to come down one increment? And then we wait for a 50% off sale?

75 bucks for a premium is the number 2 reason I quit this game after playing it since Beta. No new modes, no new maps (like 1 a year) Hell take the existing ones and make dynamic flag capture points. But the greed is what got me out.

5:44 Ahem. Panama. Cough. Middle East. Cough. The entirety of the US west of the east coast. C o u g h .

Bring back Bismarck !!! That guy is freaking funny..

I have wanted the F20 since they started putting modern jets in, and added the F5..... and its $75 .....I'm a bit pissed

Its f20 hunting season! 🎉

so for 75 dollars you get an F-5 with a bigger engine and 4 more missiles with more than a full br jump, but you also get less countermeasures than the premium F-5 yeah i really dont see the point in this thing other than a loot pinata for top tier like the F-4S/JUK/ADTW have been for 11.0

Video 22 of asking Bo to play the Bf 109 Z-1

it's nearly 100 CAD for me on console

Love Zuit trying to take things that don't belong to him.😂

Can someone help... i thought the 3 F-20's ever built could only fire air to air on their wingtips as the air to air system were not linked to the other hardpoints... Or are we really now going into the "What if" scenarios?

But the Brits let Warspite die an ignoble death. She said FU to the scrapyard!! RIP Grand Old Lady.
