Continuing from my last episode, I show another one of the Norwegian missions, where we have to bomb a sub pen with a Lancaster.

00:00Hello everybody, and welcome to another episode of War Thunder.
00:02For those of you who have watched my previous video and were linked here,
00:06this is the second part of my 1.43 dev server single player missions episodes.
00:12For those of you who haven't seen it, basically I'll leave a link to the original video,
00:18did a quick video of the single missions, but I had to split the videos in two,
00:23so this is the second part, and I hope you enjoy it, so I'll let you get on with watching it.
00:30Another Norwegian mission. Can we do it? Swordfish flight? No.
00:37Close to water? No, we're going to use the Lancaster.
00:42We're going to do it. We're going to use the Lancaster.
00:45We're going to bomb the hell out of Bergen to get revenge on the Germans for damaging my Mosquito.
00:53Oh dear, please tell me this isn't going to be another long mission.
00:566,000 pound bombs, and three 250 pound bombs.
01:04This is one thing I don't get about loadouts, they use the most pointlessly...
01:07I mean, six 1,000 pound bombs is good, and then just a random...
01:11Oh, this just adds another three 250 pound to me.
01:14It's not the Heinkel 111, you get...
01:17One of the upgrades is two 1,000 kilogram bombs,
01:20and then the next upgrade is literally one 250 kilogram bomb.
01:24I mean, how is that useful? It's another...
01:27I mean, it was good to have more bombs, but could you not add something a little more...
01:32You know, useful? It's not...
01:34You've gone to your drawing board and said, right, we've got two 1,000 kilogram bombs,
01:38and then, right, we've come with an improvement, one extra 250 kilogram bomb.
01:44It's just so pointless. You have to wonder who thought that was,
01:49you know, a useful upgrade.
01:52But I'm just sort of rambling on again, so I'll pause the video while it loads.
01:57Right, welcome back.
01:58Ah, F7, which was run on this video, is also the bomb site.
02:02Oh, great.
02:03Destroying the Bruno.
02:05Now, this is a good mission.
02:06Usually, when you do these bomber escort missions,
02:09well, bomber missions, you're just on your own.
02:10You've got to defend yourself.
02:12I don't think I've done one with escort fighters before.
02:14Oh, I'm looking forward to this.
02:17And we've got the .50 caliber machine gun in the back.
02:22Oh, is my rear gunner just firing that?
02:27I mean, my top gunner.
02:28I thought he was firing through the aircraft for a second.
02:32I've got a ton of fuel, a ton of bombs, and a ton of jerrys to shoot down,
02:37or be shot down by.
02:39Preferably the former.
02:42Right, come on.
02:44Right, do I go ahead and just try and suicide bomb the thing before I end the mission,
02:48or do I stick with the formation?
02:51How long till the...
02:52Our server's still...
02:53Oh, nine minutes.
02:54Oh, I may have got the time a little bit wrong last time.
02:57Right, try and slow myself down.
03:00I don't want to overtake this guy.
03:01I've got my flaps on combat, engine's off.
03:04Will we slow down in time?
03:07No, we're not.
03:10Shame these lot can't whip.
03:13Would help out a lot.
03:18Right, oh god.
03:19Frame rate.
03:20Frame rate's going a little weird.
03:23Well, the escort fighters dealt with them.
03:25Oh god, this is awesome.
03:28Well, I've got to go to raised flaps to keep it all going.
03:32I want the others to catch up, but I don't want to fall out of the sky too quick.
03:44Right, oh, we're still quite far away, but we will make it before the end of the match.
03:49Right, I'm gonna...
03:58Oh god, frame rate went weird again.
04:01Oh, come on.
04:04I'm sorry, I must be hitting him.
04:09I think the problem is I've got, um...
04:12You know, I'm saving the other videos from today.
04:14I think it's starting to slow the system down a little bit.
04:17I probably should have waited a little while,
04:19but it was only a short video.
04:20I thought it would only take a little while.
04:22You know, while the game's loading and stuff.
04:24Still only at, like, 50%.
04:28Yeah, I'm not hitting anything like this.
04:31I've got a lot better at guns.
04:32Like, you know, turrets lately, but...
04:36I think that was more to do with when I had...
04:38Whoa, better FPS.
04:39Oh god, um...
04:41Oh jesus, we've lost the...
04:43Right, we lost the elevator.
04:46I can still control this thing, you know.
04:48The faster you go, you know, you go fast.
04:52You start rising, then you slow down
04:55because you're obviously going too far up.
04:57So you go down, you dive down,
05:00and you pick up your speed again.
05:02You generally pull out the dive.
05:05Just keep doing that until you crash or something, usually.
05:11Oh, come on, gunner.
05:12Reload.
05:15Or...
05:16Or you just go into your gunner view
05:18and the plane autopilots itself out of it.
05:22So what?
05:24I put my flaps on combat.
05:25Maybe it can control it.
05:27Oh god, we lost an aileron.
05:30Oh dear.
05:31Things were going so well in the beginning as well.
05:33Right, we're going to raise flaps so we don't lose too much speed.
05:38Do I...
05:39Oh, we can leave the plane, but I'm not going to do that yet.
05:42I'm going to try and, you know, keep it in the air for a while.
05:45Do as much damage to the enemy in this one.
05:52Come on.
05:54Oh dear.
05:55Oh dear.
05:56Keep it together, keep it together.
05:59Lost one of our gunners.
06:02Okay, ditched a bomb load.
06:05One fire, oh god, and there was a ton of fuel on this thing.
06:09Okay, um, not sure we're meant to recover out of this.
06:15So...
06:22Yeah, I'm gonna possibly bail out on this.
06:32We've lost...
06:33Oh, we haven't actually lost any engines.
06:34Oh, that's surprising.
06:37But we have no lift.
06:38Oh, we seem to have gone into a bit of a spin.
06:40I'm bailing out.
06:43Oops, save the crew.
06:46Wow, he went flying before the parachute opened.
06:50Oh, where are we?
06:52Okay, we're still ridiculously far away from the target.
06:56I don't know if we've respawned roughly where we last died.
07:03So get as near as we can.
07:05Mostly the Germans are somewhere else.
07:10Or dealing with the escort fighters.
07:12Come on, we can do this.
07:14We've got 11 bombers left, come on.
07:18We have to change tactics and suicide dive into it.
07:21Which is, you know, what I complained about with the Guardian Angel then.
07:25But since it's a single player mission...
07:28Oh, probably shouldn't actually do it.
07:30No.
07:30But then I've only got, oh, four minutes now to...
07:33Oh, come on, I want to finish this mission before the death server shuts down.
07:37Come on.
07:38It would make a hell of a mess if it did shut down mid-mission.
07:46Hopefully they'll keep it open for an extra minute or two.
07:50Come on.
07:51Oh, we've got a lot of jerries on us.
07:53We're picking up speed ever so slowly.
07:56The rest of the bombers are still making their way there.
07:59Generally seem to be doing well.
08:01Escorts, I don't know what they're doing, just fine about.
08:03I don't know what he's trying to do, looks like he's trying to attract their attention
08:10more than anything.
08:12We haven't actually been hit by anything, I've just realised.
08:14We've been firing away at the enemy, they haven't actually hit us.
08:19I don't know if they have limited ammo or something.
08:22They shouldn't do that.
08:25Come on, we can get near.
08:28We're picking up speed here, come on.
08:30Oh, now we're starting to be hit.
08:32We're still picking up speed, come on.
08:34I don't want to have to jet some bombs to pick up more speed.
08:40I didn't realise that little radio antenna thing was on the side.
08:44Oh, that one.
08:44Oh, maybe, doesn't matter, it's always there.
08:46Well, I haven't unlocked that Lancaster Mark III on the, you know, properly yet.
08:51I'm sort of researching towards it, but I haven't actually unlocked it so I haven't
08:54had a proper look.
08:56Right, gunner is still reloading, come on.
08:59Right, this one's mine.
09:03I have you now.
09:06Oh, maybe not.
09:08Come on.
09:10What was that?
09:14I was doing a mission the other day, like yesterday, with bloody Dauntlesses and I was
09:17just knocking Japanese planes out of the sky and these ones just, you know, manually,
09:21these ones just won't die.
09:23Well, maybe I'm not hitting them properly.
09:25No, maybe I'm not hitting them properly.
09:29And lack of a belly turret has suddenly become quite a bit of a problem as they've all dived
09:36underneath me.
09:38Come on, we're so near, how long have we got?
09:40Two minutes to the death server, come on.
09:45If we need to wait for the other bombers to get here, I'm going to be quite annoyed.
09:48I'm going to be quite annoyed.
09:53I'm going to be quite annoyed.
09:53I'm going to be quite annoyed.
09:54I think maybe I left them on combat or not.
09:58He's doing quite well for himself, that gunner.
10:00Not actually hitting anything, but...
10:04Random Focke-Wulf 190 on the ground.
10:06Oh dear, they're starting to get hits in.
10:12Come on.
10:12Come on.
10:18Come on.
10:20No, come on.
10:20Just let me drop my bombs and I'll be, you know, just let me get to the bloody bomb site.
10:24Come on.
10:27Oh dear, I think we're on arcade, aren't we?
10:29Yeah, we are, so it shouldn't be a problem.
10:33Ah, I can't see the target, come on.
10:36Okay, now we're really picking up speed.
10:37Right.
10:40Gunner, give them hell.
10:43Bombs away.
10:45That better be bloody hitting.
10:47I'm hoping we get targets like this in single player.
10:51Wait, was I meant to actually aim for that bit or...
10:54Oh dear.
10:57Oh dear, I think I've just bombed a bloody town.
11:00Oh Jesus.
11:06Ah, right, now I feel quite bad.
11:09I made it all the way here and I just bombed the wrong...
11:12Oh, that'll teach me for not looking.
11:15But this is such a... this is quite a developed town.
11:17It sort of looks a bit like Dojo, like, you know, all the detail they've put into it.
11:27They'll definitely will be splitting these videos in two.
11:32This one's dragging on quite a while.
11:34Right, 20 seconds.
11:36Okay, the dev server should be closed now, it hasn't.
11:39I can only assume they're keeping it open for another minute or two.
11:43Come on.
11:44Ah, the other bombers have started hitting it.
11:46See if I can deliver the coop to grass.
11:48Hope that's the right word.
11:53Come on, picking up speed again.
11:54Bombs still reloading and they're still firing.
12:02Right, this would make up for my completely missing the target the last bombing run.
12:13And, did we take it out?
12:18Oh, the slimmest bit of health.
12:22Oh, come on, one of our bombers buffed, must be.
12:26Have they dropped their bombs?
12:29Oh, we lost an aileron.
12:30One of our gunners is now unconscious.
12:36Oh, oh dear, oh dear.
12:38Seems like losing one of your ailerons just makes this thing damn near un-flyable.
12:42Well, maybe not un-flyable, but not easy to fly.
12:51Right, if I just focus on flying straight and level, I can somewhat level it out.
12:55The problem is I have to turn to the right, which is where we're leading.
13:00And, one of our bombers.
13:01And, one of our bombers.
13:04It's starting to look like one of those bomber chaos missions.
13:08Ah, the biplanes, the bombers that Flydaney and Baron do when they pass each other with
13:15bombers and stuff.
13:17Come on.
13:19I've got three seconds, come on.
13:22Just keep it together.
13:23Right, bombs away.
13:30Every bomb away.
13:36I've no idea if this is going to reach it back to the UK.
13:40And, mission complete.
13:41I better not have to fly out somewhere.
13:49Oh, I think we may have to, because...
13:51Oh, maybe not.
13:52No, we're not continuing this session.
13:54We are flying to the west.
13:57Or, southwest.
13:59Yeah, that's important.
14:00We came in from the north-east, not north-west.
14:02Well, did we fly over the North Sea or something?
14:05I can only assume we did.
14:09So, that was the missions of...
14:13Well, two of the missions of War Thunder.
14:15Well, one of them.
14:16I'll be splitting this into two videos, definitely.
14:19Um, so yeah.
14:21Definitely a lot better than...
14:22Well, maybe not a lot better, but definitely fun little missions.
14:26Um, and as I said in my last video,
14:29probably, um, probably last video,
14:31the replay system's been greatly improved.
14:33So yeah, single missions and replays.
14:36The two things that don't usually get mentioned.
14:38Um, yeah.
14:42Yeah, thank you for watching the video.
14:44Um, leave a like if you like the videos.
14:46Subscribe if you like these sort of videos.
14:48Leave feedback.
14:49Um, thank you for watching and I'll see you next time.
