I still don’t like how the F-2A isn’t rank 9 though

this one was 750k before

How come the aviation technology progresses to more modern, while ground is stuck at one point?

Just when getting ready for my first rank VIs
My condolences to people who reached before it was announced and have lost millions of SL.

nope I dont think so. I had the norwegien f16 ~300k away from competion now its 200k bc of the reduction in cost but I got nothing for the foldering of the JAS39C which I though was a thing in war thunder or any previous research. And also no SL refund.

so I lost like 600k RP and a few million SL.

Is that why I suddenly received XP on 2 vehicles from 2 different skill trees that I hadn’t played in a long time?

Hello, there is a mistake: VT4 didn’t get stock APFSDS, even though it’s now Rank VIII and all Rank VIIIs do!

Otherwise, very nice news and changes.
