War Thunder Sim - Beginner's guide to CAS (Close Air Support) | How To Use Bombs, Rockets & Cannons!

In today's tutorial I will be showing you the basics on how to use bombs, rockets and cannons in War Thunder's simulator battle mode.

Unlike the other game modes, you are confined to your cockpit which makes accuracy an even harder challenge than usual. Thankfully there are a few simple tricks and methods that will make it much easier for you to get shells, bombs and rockets on your target.

This video will focus on glide bombing, dive bombing, the use of cannons in the CAS role, and unguided rockets (with and without a ballistic computer).

I've tried my best to not make the video too long winded. I pride myself on keeping my tutorials simple and easy to understand, adding no unnecessary jargon, which hopefully makes them easier to watch for you.

If you need anything explained further, please feel free to comment below and I will try to answer your questions :)
