AH-1 Cobra / War Thunder

Published 2022-04-27
The Korean war marked the first time when helicopters were employed en masse. These vehicles, which were a pretty rare sight before, proved to be an invaluable asset when it came to reconnaissance, troop deployment and evacuation of the wounded. The clear advantages of this type of aircraft, and especially their ability to dodge concentrated fire, quickly caught the interest of the military who applied considerable funds and resources to develop new models.

    Fun Fact: Pakistani AH-1F and AH-1S are modified to carry the Bhaktar Shikan/HJ-8 ATGM (With C-NITE Thermals) and were extensively used in United Nations Peacekeeping Operations in African missions like Somalia, Sierra Leone etc. And also against militants on the Afghan border. Pakistan has used the Cobra more than the Japanese TBH, it deserved to be mentioned in this video.

    Love the Cobras. No other Helicopters like them. Their Slim design gives them so much more survivability than other Helicopters. Also, please consider adding the early twin engine Hueys and Cobras ♥️
  • Still waiting for the well documented and passed Minigun + 40mm GL combo And a decent cockpit and gunsight.
  • @HIFLY01
    I love watching the gameplay of the vehicles in these videos. Makes them look significantly better than they are in game. You get instantly killed without doing anything 4/5 games
  • @StruggleGaming
    Love how the Huey is the progenitor but the Cobra is the starter helicopter in the US tree so you go from decent helicopter to an older worse helicopter, then that older helicopter with guided rockets. Kinda ass backwards.
  • Just here to say that I watched your video after a long time and I'm still in love with narration. The way you do it, no one else can.
  • @jqyy8059
    I would love them if the AH-1G didn't go against Ka50 and Ka52 in very single helicopter battle

    My favourite cobra is the one that saved my section in Afghanistan with its cannon. Wonderful thing to hear, wonder and then see it fly overhead, with the enemy scattering.

    Ever since I laid my eyes on the Viper in Battlefield 4, I knew it would be my all-time favourite attack helicopter. Imagine my reaction when I realized it was in the game! I don’t own a premium helicopter, but I still managed to research the ah-1f and I’m a third through with the ah-64a. As soon as I’m done, I’ll definitely research the ah-1z, it lacks a few features like irst, protection and the flexible turret isn’t as good against ground targets but it can carry 16 hellfires ( instead of the 8 with the first apache ) when carrying aim-9L’s and it has to be one of if not the fastest helicopter in the game. Even if it wasn’t good I would still want to be able to look at it and say I own it

    My favorite Cobra is the AH-1W. I would love to see it in war thunder one day in war thunder. Also, I would like to see the AH-1S and AH-1J in the us tree as well.
  • @ReaperOperator
    I love the helicopters I just wish they had a variable BR depending on what mods you take into battle.
  • @deadsnake_war
    come on Gaijin give the AH1Z better hellfires like the AGM114K-2,3, or AGM114M or N which it actually carried and not the AGM114B, which is carried by the AH1W
  • @SotGravarg
    Please add the Heli PvE test mode but also add one as RB and Simulator. That would be great.
  • @condor3665
    My grandpa was a mechanic on hueys during desert storm but he seems to have a sweet spot for the cobra/viper. He even had a poster of the cobra/viper on the wall before they moved (I dont remember which it was its been a couple years and I wasn't into military aviation).
  • @bandit6902
    I've always dreamed to fly one of the Cobras in the Phillippine Air Force, they also have some UH-1's (But i think they're used as Medevacs instead of Combat) and they're all cool for me. As long as the PAF has some helicopters, I will dream to fly them once I am in the PAF.
