The '''Ta 152 C-3''' is a Rank IV German interceptor with a battle rating of 6.3 (AB) and 5.7 (RB/SB). It was introduced in [[Update_1.57_"Battle_March"|Update 1.57 "Battle March"]].

The Ta 152 C was designed for mid altitude combat, with a re-designed short wing similar to that of the 190 series, such as the [[Fw_190_D-13|Fw 190 D-13]]. With its Daimler-Benz DB 603 engine, gaining speed and altitude is the first priority in this aircraft. Second, is heavy usage of Boom and Zoom tactics, especially on heavily armed strategic bombers like the [[B-29A-BN|B-29 Superfortress]]. With its armament of four MG-151 20 mm cannons (two in the wing roots, two in the cowling), and a MK-103 cannon firing through the propeller hub (which according to wikipedia makes this the C-3 version), trigger discipline is a must to take down as many aircraft as you can with the ammunition on board. However, it can be pushed to turn tight in a pinch with a rather small amount of energy lost by using the flaps, and despite not having a proper combat flap setting. The flaps are extremely strong and they deploy quickly, even at higher speeds (though it is not advisable to do such thing unless the situation is just right).

Currently the Ta 152 C-3 does not carry any under-wing ordnance, but it can perform rather lethal ground-pounding with its [[MK 103 (30 mm)]] cannon, if it is loaded with armoured target rounds (HVAP), although one must aim carefully and have good trigger discipline to knock out tanks, or else one wastes too many shells on a single vehicle.

Description

GarageImage Ta 152 C-3.jpg


The Ta 152 C-3 is a rank IV German fighter with a battle rating of 6.3 (AB/RB) and 6.0 (SB). It was introduced in Update 1.57 "Battle March".

The Ta 152 C was designed for mid altitude combat, with a re-designed short wing similar to that of the 190 series, such as the Fw 190 D-13. With its Daimler-Benz DB 603 engine, gaining speed and altitude is the first priority in this aircraft. Second, is heavy usage of Boom and Zoom tactics, especially on heavily armed strategic bombers like the B-29 Superfortress. With its armament of four MG-151 20 mm cannons (two in the wing roots, two in the cowling), and a MK-103 cannon firing through the propeller hub, trigger discipline is a must to take down as many aircraft as you can with the ammunition on board. However, it can be pushed to turn tight in a pinch with a rather small amount of energy lost by using the flaps, and despite not having a proper combat flap setting. The flaps are extremely strong and they deploy quickly, even at higher speeds (though it is not advisable to do such thing unless the situation is just right).

General info

Flight Performance

Describe how the aircraft behaves in the air. Speed, manoeuvrability, acceleration and allowable loads - these are the most important characteristics of the vehicle.

Armaments

Offensive armament

Main articles: MK 103 (30 mm), MG 151/20 (20 mm)

The Ta 152 C-3 is armed with:

  • 1 x 30 mm MK 103 cannon, nose-mounted (90 rpg)
  • 2 x 20 mm MG 151/20 cannons, nose-mounted (150 rpg = 300 total)
  • 2 x 20 mm MG 151/20 cannons, wing-mounted (175 rpg = 350 total)

Usage in battles

Currently the Ta 152 C-3 does not carry any under-wing ordnance, but it can perform rather lethal ground-pounding with its MK 103 (30 mm) cannon, if it is loaded with armoured target rounds (HVAP), although one must aim carefully and have good trigger discipline to knock out tanks, or else one wastes too many shells on a single vehicle. But for its intended role, the combination of MG 151 20 mm cannons plus the aforementioned MK 103 is lethal against any aircraft in the game. However, the stock belts can be a bit of a pain to use, as half of the load are not the infamous German minengeschoße (HE-IT).

The Ta 152 C-3 is somewhat of a combination of the Fw 190 D series and the Ta 152 H-1, it is easy to play, but difficult to master and is easily countered by the enemy, but that will not stop you from doing well with this aircraft as long as you fight engagements on your terms.

Pros and cons

Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".

Pros:

  • Powerful armament of five cannons with a lot of ammo;
  • Nose mounted armament allows very tight spread of bullets when firing;
  • Does not slow down that much when firing all its guns;
  • Durable and well armoured, pilot is protected;
  • Very effective bomber killer;
  • Armour is enough to deflect machine gun rounds from bombers' gunners;
  • Incredibly strong at a head on engagement and will often survive unharmed or with minor damage;
  • Very good acceleration;
  • Good energy retention, although not as good as the H-1 model;
  • Good roll rate, better than the H-1 model;
  • Very good performance when operating from low to mid altitude;
  • Very fast dive speed;
  • Can perform a tank-buster role with its Armored targets belt for the 30 mm cannon
  • Can immediately research the 20 mm and 30 mm belts.

Cons:

  • Poor rate of climb for an interceptor;
  • Slow, coupled with poor rate of climb makes it an easy target after conducting a boom and zoom attack;
  • Worst turn rate of all Kurt Tank fighters in the game, even worse than the already bad Fw 190 series;
  • Above average repair cost in RB;
  • No combat flaps configuration;
  • Poor high altitude performance;
  • Very easy to counter and has almost no options of escape when chased;
  • Wings and fuselage are littered with fuel tanks, although they are self sealing;
  • Requires a lot of RP to spade despite being a 5.7 BR aircraft;
  • Stock performance is awful;
  • Feels heavier and more sluggish to fly than the H-1 model;
  • Engine often overheats after 3500 m.

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/ History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === Encyclopedia Info ===, also if applicable).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
