How to aim better as CAS?

[naive goblet]

I always die or shoot down when I play CAS I never returned home my accuracy also sucks. so I barely got CAS kills.

[sleek jackal]

what planes are you using?

[naive goblet]

BF-110 line

6.7 Germany ground

[sleek jackal]

Ok so that is one reason

You are using 3.7 at most planes in 7.7 matches

For 6.7 you want to use the arado.

If you're getting shot down as much at lower br's too you want to have better situational awareness. Drop one bomb after spawning, and then instead of going in for another attack get some distance.

Use this distance to check out the battlefield, especially looking for spaa that spwned or fighters that spawned.

[naive goblet]

Inst the bomber line requires more sp than strike/fighter lines?

[sleek jackal]

yes

[naive goblet]

It's like 700 sp so I stopped using them

[sleek jackal]

But you definitely do not want to use a 3.7 plane in your 6.7 lineup.

Rather use the K4 as a fighter bomber or the me410 b6r3 as cannon cas

Let me try to get an example of how to do the disengage thing

[naive goblet]

I'm using the Ta-152 as my interceptor

I only have 5 crew slot but I used 4 of them for tanks

[sleek jackal]

Yeah switch that out for the k4 if you want to. worse fighter but can groundpound.

[naive goblet]

What payload does the k4 have?

[sleek jackal]

500 kilo bomb

[orchid arch]

Use the striker Fw190

Gets a 1000kg bomb

Practice in a test drive / custom battle

[coarse raft]

Orrrrrrrrrrr, hs129

[sleek jackal]

I will punch you

[coarse raft]

But it’s funnyyyyyyyyyyy

[wispy flare]

Its actually quite good. Maybe not at 7.7 though

[young bear]

Any bomb larger than a 500lb is a good choice cause you don't have to be accurate and the 250kg is sufficient for most things

For AA knowledge try to be careful and if you see one shooting at a teammate take advantage of it

If you play cas enough you can pick out what AA it is

A rt-t-t-t-t is a 20mm or lower and a thuding sound is a 37 or more

[glass light]

30 to 40 degree angle of attack (check from hud, view or so) is quite a good tip I took from this video which helped me quite a bit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98I25zVGWmY around 3:30

Let’s see if this guy is talking shit or not

Yeah so he goes from vertical to a very shallow angle. I prefer a steep drop, as it allows you to be out of the firing arc of most top mounted mg’s, a few spaa’s, the main guns of tanks and out of sight of a lot of players. It also allows you to better judge the battlefield and pull of if needed

Also dont use fuses. If you need to use 1.5 or 1.

[spare gazelle]

I always use 1.5

For anything 1000 pounds or higher

And 1 for anything below

But im realizing that might be a bad thing

Because that technically gives me time to fly closer to the explosion
