Conclusion:

Spoiler

Animated profile icons would be a purely cosmetic addition that enhances player identity, rewards progression, and adds visual appeal to War Thunder without impacting gameplay. It’s a small feature that could make a big difference in how players connect with their profiles and adds extra cosmetic option to there profile that players choose !

On the old form you had GIFs because you could use anything as your avatar lots of anime stuff. The Enlisted form still allows that for some reason but overall its something the snail will likely do just because the $$$ they can make.

Lets hope they don’t cheap out and AI there icons.
