🎙️ Welcome to the iNAVY Roundtable!
In this special episode, top War Thunder players and strategists gather to explore the future of Naval and Air combined battles, with a spotlight on Enduring Confrontation (EC) mode.
🚢✈️ From Arcade skirmishes to Realistic warfare, we break down the current state of gameplay and what lies ahead. We dive into the potential introduction of submarines, naval mines, mine sweepers, and support roles—all of which could bring new depth and tactical variety to EC.
We also tackle some of the most pressing issues raised by the community:
- Convoys and aircraft carriers, while promising in concept, are currently underwhelming due to poor AI pathfinding, lack of meaningful objectives, and limited player interaction [[1]]
Despite these challenges, the community sees huge potential in EC—especially if Gaijin embraces more dynamic objectives, better integration of air and naval roles, and meaningful support mechanics.

- Naval-Air synergy in EC: what’s working and what needs fixing
