I’m not sure in which category I should post this topic, but as you know, some of the aircraft 3d models(mostly props) we have in War Thunder were transferred directly from the IL-2 Birds of Prey/Wings of Prey released on consoles and Windows PC in 2009 and the Birds of Steel in 2012 to the current game.
While several aircraft have undergone remodeling, including the Spitfires that has Merlin engine, Ju 87, and Me 163 B, there are still many aircraft that have not undergone remodeling, including all Bf 109s since the F-4 and the P-51D-5, some of which will even be 15 years old in 2024.
These 3D models are already outdated, or errors in the 3D models that were pointed out years ago are still not fixed, and need to be remodeled as soon as possible.
