Tank busting German Et

[mrg2003]

What is the best way to kill ETs in hurricane Tank buster? I figured out that Tigers die if you hit them straight down through the top right behind the turret. But are all tanks different???

all axis tanks have flat plates. pretty easy and self-explanatory how to kill them i guess ?

 

to help you:

Check the sapper guide for sap points on ETs.  Then aim for those components while endeavoring to get the most perpendicular angle you can.  

For example, the Pz IVG and H have a sweet spot on its sides between the midpoint and the tail end, just below the top track.  If you come in for your attack run like a lawnmower from his 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock, you should be able to penetrate the side armor.

The key here is you need to be perpendicular to the tank as much as possible. Any dive and you are pretty much 45 degrees right off the bat. You just turned that boxy panzer into a T34 with sweet sloped armor! Channel that inner lawnmower!

There are 2 grills  on top behind a tiger turret that are parallel each other. 1 on left side and 1 on right side. If you direct hit them they flame up. I usually line up the tank to the end of my wing first to get the dive angle (around 70-80 degrees. Throttle to about down to 25% and then dive toward the tiger. Lineup isn't so hard but shooting at the correct range to match your convergeance is the difficult part. I've had a couple times where I shot exactly 300m  so both rounds hit each grill flaming them both. You only have to hit one though. If you get brown smoke or white smoke then the rounds hit between the grills damaging the engine. There is a weak spot on top of the turret that instant blows up the tank if you manage to hit it. It is not the commanders hatch, but I haven't been able to find consistency with it. The grills on the other hand are the most consistent.

50 cal is better for everything but tiger. More ammo, faster, more versatile. Tiger with open commander hatch can be killed by any plane in the game with a machinegun by shooting into the hatch at ~45 degree angle. Tiger can be killed by 50s but it isn't as easy and requires trim. Hispano also works in all of these same spots

happens when allied planes nearly all get AP rounds ... but axis the bugged HE rounds that do kinda nothing these days because CRS keeps fixing it ... well ... downgrading it

Tiger kill spot is left side on the rear deck coming from behind. First kill in the video.

Stug 3g Left side of the top deck. 1:05 in the video

4H/G on the right side (from behind) 2:40 in the video

I agree that shooting straight down from above is an effective tactic in Hurricane Tank Buster, but do you think there are other methods that require similar tactics as in Geometry Dash? For example, you need to calculate precise moves to overcome each challenge.

You can come in from the sides on all panzers except for the tiger.  I've blown them up like that, just like blowing up sherms.
