Probably no
Developers are aware of interest from the community in this area, they were thinking of looking into it this year, but currently no news right now about it

Devs hear but don’t listen, generally such things will be returned wen everybody forget about them or abandon idea of asking for interesting things and mechanics.
Messing with the APHE shells and ruining maps is more important.

Thank for the answer.

No news is good news right?
Knowing that we have never had any explanation for their removal, I must say this is encouraging.
We just have to wait.

I must admit as somebody who liked realistic decals when I started out I rarely see anybody use them or use them any where near correctly. Nice to collect them I suppose.

I must say that I fully share this opinion on their use.
For me, the decals are one of the essential aspects of War Thunder. The ability to make units that have made history recognized and give a more realistic look to the game.

Pacifica already said they had no news on this and repeatedly CMs and FMs have said it is quite unlikely, but I’d really love to see them come back. I think stopping them was a bad idea and I really wish they would bring them back.

Lack of historical decals has really been a continually missed opportunity by Gaijin. I don’t understand why they ever stopped it to begin with but they should very much return.

Considering how Gaijin love to make money the lack of opportunity they miss is astounding.I wonder if Gaijin’s team is so young that they genuinely have zero understanding or appreciation of history. The way the game is going might support that hypothesis.
There are so many options available ,for example all these decal sheets for military modelling provide inspiration.
I would love to see the longer numbers for the USA WW2 tanks especially and Red turret numbers for WW2 German.
Israeli air force is especially interesting.

I’d like to see more historical decals for all nations for all vehicle types.

THANK YOU!!!
It might seem a trivial thing, but it was a way to get something new and flashy and get your mind out of the grind. Not to mention some designs were awesome! I got some of my best decals in this way!
I just ask that you give new players a chance to get the old decals, they deserve it! You don’t even need to put up new content, just the immense library of decals that were made are enough for a few years of content!

Access to interesting Camo would also be a good seller I think. Currently they are 200GE but are limited. Gaijin are missing a trick by just putting them in chests in a random order.

This would be an easy way for Gaijin to make some money. Players from nations not included in the tech trees could use the historical decals to recreate markings on vehicles their country used.
For example I’d pay GE for the 2018 2nd NZ division emblem to stick on a Sherman

“Easy way to make some money.” It shouldn’t be about money. We used to have a “Week’s Latest” that you could get some decals fairly easily from just playing.

Decal events were the best events this game had tbh plus it was liked by majority of community.
