- A new Air Realistic Battle mission called “Kamchatka. East” on the “Kamchatka” map has been added.
- A new Air Realistic Battle mission called “Golan Heights (aerial spawn)” on the “Golan Heights” map has been added. Players spawn in the air, but along the front line rather than in a single point. The mission is available on top tier.
Location and mission updates
-
Snow textures being too dirty on the Frozen Pass location have been fixed.
-
Gaps have been closed and the spawn points on the Carpathians location have been protected.
-
The aircraft part of the Karelia location has been expanded.
-
A stage airfield has been added to Air Realistic Battle missions based on the Enduring Confrontation logic (Spain, Vietnam, Rocky Canyon, Afghanistan). It is located closer to the front line and can not be spawned at, however it can be used to rearm and repair.
-
The physics of fallen trees has been improved. Now, they roll less after falling, and the crown of a tree now lays the ground, taking up less space on the screen.
-
Several changes to the “Low cloud” weather preset. The amount of clouds has been increased and their starting altitude has been lowered to make it more difficult for aircraft to attack from high altitudes, while reducing haze to make it easier to spot targets at low altitudes.
-
The size of destruction effects have been adjusted relative to the size of the objects being destroyed.
-
The airfield positioning mechanic has been improved, affecting all types of missions (air, ground etc). There should now be far fewer situations where the airfield is located on a prominent hill. However if such airfields are still found, please create a bug report indicating their position.
-
Destruction effects of different buildings and objects have been changed. The change is aimed to reduce the impact of effects on gameplay (prior to the change they could have caused the player to lose clear sight for a long time), and to fix the situations where small objects could have left too large destruction effects.
Ground Vehicle model, damage model, characteristic and weaponry changes:
- Type 94 — the location and number of fuel tanks have been adjusted. (Report)

- F-111A — a bug where information about the 20 mm M61A1 cannon was not shown in the Secondary weapon menu has been fixed.
- JA37 (all variants), AJ37, AJS37 — missing rear wheel animation has been fixed. (Report)
- For radars on the MiG-29 (all variants), Mirage F1C, Mirage-2000 (all variants), Yak-141, F-14 (all variants), F-15A, the beam width of the target illumination antenna has been reduced to the beam width of the main radar antenna, which will greatly reduce the likelihood of retargeting of SARH missiles to undesired targets.
- Airborne radars using different signals in tracking mode will now automatically change the type of signal to continue tracking the target. Manual signal switching is no longer available.
- Signals have the following priorities, starting with the highest:
- Pulse Doppler all-angle
- Pulse-Doppler forward-angle
- Pulse
- Switching to OLS
- Signals have the following priorities, starting with the highest:
The radar tries to use the signal with the highest priority and temporarily changes it to signals with lower priorities only if it is impossible to track the target using the previous signal. If its not possible for any signal to track the target, then the radar tracks the target in the prolongation mode for a few more seconds, while trying to get back to normal tracking by going through all types of signals.
- Pulse-Doppler airborne radars in ACM mode now only use a pulse-Doppler all-aspect signal, if there is one, or constantly switch between two other signals (pulse-Doppler head-on and pulse), if there is none. Manual switching of signals is not available anymore.
- Tracking radar and IR tracking of SPAA — a limiter to the angular velocity of a tracked target has been added to eliminate abrupt turret rotations on close fly-bys of a tracked target. In such cases tracking will stop immediately.
- Tracking radar of SPAA — multi-path effect has been disabled in Arcade and Realistic Battles. The received reflection of the target is shown with its own marker. The ability to lock your own missile in Realistic Battles has been disabled.
- Now in Arcade and Realistic battles when trying to lock a target selected on a radar indicator or trying to acquire a target selected with a marker on it (MMB by default), radar performs a fine search in a true direction to a target and ignores other targets.
- Fw 190 A-8 — incorrect description of the IAI belt in the English localization has been corrected.
- 12.7 mm machine guns UBS/UBT — the names in the English localization have been changed from the same as the UB machine guns “UB” to “UBS” and “UBT” respectively.
Secondary weapon customization has been added to the following aircraft:
- BB-1, Su-2 (M-82), Su-2 MV-5, Su-2 TSS-1, J29F, J29D, and A29B.
Crew ejection system have been added to the following aircraft:
- A-7D, A-7E, F-100A (all variants), F-100D (all variants), and A-6E TRAM.

Flight Model changes:
-
Automatic adjustment of the flap extension limit or automatic retraction of the flap depending on the current speed has been added to the aircraft with automatic flaps, “floating” type flaps and flaps with protective blow-up mechanisms. The list of these aircraft is: F8F-1, F8F-1B, P-51H-5, F-14A, F-14B, F-5E, F-16 (all variants), F-4 Phantom (all variants), AV-8A, AV-8C, AV-8B+, Harrier GR.1, Harrier GR.3, Harrier GR.7, Sea Harrier FRS.1, F-105D, A-4 (all variants), A-10A Early, A-10A Late, Mirage F1C, Mirage F1C-200, Lightning F.6, Lightning F.53, F-84F, F2H-2, MiG-21 (all variants), MiG-23 (all variants), MiG-27 (all variants), MiG-29 (all variants), J-7 (all variants), Typhoon Mk.1, F4F-3/4/Martlet, F6F (all variants), F4U (all variants), F2G-1, N1K1/2, J7W1, A7M (all variants), J6K1, Douglas AD-2/4, A-1H
-
Mosquito (all variants) — the flight model has been updated. Engine operating modes have been corrected. Distribution of fuel in the fuel tanks has been adjusted. The polars of the wings, fuselage, empennage, and propeller blades have been recalculated and corrected. This aircraft’s behavior while mechanisms (landing gear, flaps etc) are released has been corrected. Aircraft control when diving at high angles has been improved.
-
Javelin F.(.A.W.) Mk.9 — the flight model has been updated. The turn characteristics with the flaps extended to the Combat position have been improved. Handling at high rates of speed has been improved. The balance in landing and take-off modes has been improved and the stability margin in these modes has been reduced. Controlled stabilizer has been added. Pitch and yaw dampener has been added to the full-real controls mode.
Naval fleet model, damage model, characteristic and weaponry changes:
Naval weaponry:
- The number of shell fragments from ship guns has been increased. Previously, due to technical limitations, the number of fragments that a projectile was capable of producing was lower than it should have been. This was compensated by an increase in the destructive power of some fragments in the nose and side dispersion cones.
- In a naval battle, when several thousand shells simultaneously fly and collide with objects, the calculation of this number of fragments affected performance and greatly reduced FPS.
- Improved processing makes it possible to increase the maximum number of projectile fragments to three thousand, and the calculation of interaction with objects can be made even faster.
- There are fewer blind spots between the flight sectors, and the density of the sectors has increased.
- At the same time, the maximum possible fragmentation damage of a projectile remains the same. The distribution scheme for damage from fragments has changed. Projectiles do not cause more damage than before, but have become better and are more likely to fully deliver their potential damage.
Naval characteristics, physics and damage model:
- The damage model for sea mines has been improved. Mines no longer detonate when touched by an ally’s ship
Interface
- A fire control system (FCS) interface has been added to naval vessels. In the upper left corner of the screen where the radar interface is, there is now an indication of the relative position of the player’s ship and the enemy ship in the crosshairs.
- With ship indicators, it is now much easier to assess the exact direction of the enemy’s movement and take the right lead.
- The interface also clearly displays undershoot, overshoot or coverage, indicating the value in meters.
- For those who appreciate accurate shooting calculations, the interface contains information about the heading angle and target speed.
- Take aim at the enemy, wait until the fire control system (FCS) calculations are completed, and the interface will display the position of the enemy vessel, heading and speed.
- The data is updated with each update of the FCS calculations.
- If the vessel is equipped with both an FCS and a radar, the switch between interfaces is performed using the “Toggle radar search on/off” key.
- If all observation posts or the fire control room is destroyed, the display will turn off. After the repair of these modules is completed, the interface will be functional again.
- Changes to the hit camera. The vessel’s hit camera is constantly displayed while the enemy target in the crosshairs.
- The numbers of destroyed and intact modules have been added under the indicators of damage to guns and torpedo tubes. Under the motion indicator, percentage of the enemy’s maximum speed that they can develop at the moment have been added.
- Information about enemy crew losses as a percentage at the bottom of the hit indicator has been added.
Customization
-
The number of positions for placing decorations on ground vehicles has been significantly expanded (mud flaps, protective screens, ERA elements etc).
-
Situations where decorations could not be placed on sections of a ship with complex shapes at the bow or stern have been fixed.
-
Situations when the placing of decorations was interfered with by internal parts of a ship (bulkheads, pipes, etc) have been fixed.
-
The Game Updates 2022-2023 decal collection has been added.
Interface
- The targeting camera interface for TV guided missiles and bombs has been updated. This now displays the viewing angle of a narrow field of view (small rectangle) and target acquisition can be turned off by moving the seeker direction indicator from the center of the captured target.
- Following the Roadmap: The following options have been added to the combat interface settings: “Show ammunition type in the destruction log”, and “Show squadron names in the destruction log”.
- In graphics settings, an option to select on which monitor the client will run has been added.
- In helicopter battle settings, an option to hide the interface in the cockpit view has been added.
- In battle, a current status display has been added to the multi-function menu for the landing gear switch and manual roll control mode buttons.
- When installing weapons on an aircraft that limit the sweep wing angles, a warning notification is now displayed.
- Following the Roadmap: New training missions have been added, which allow you to familiarize yourself with the following weaponry:
- Laser-guided air-to-surface missiles on aircraft with a targeting pod;
- Laser-guided air-to-surface missiles on aircraft with a fixed beam;
- Air-to-surface guided missiles with a TV seeker;
- Air-to-surface guided missiles with a thermal imaging seeker;
- Air-to-air guided missiles with an active radar homing seeker;
- Laser-guided bombs on aircraft with a targeting pod;
- Bombs with a TV seeker;
- Bombs with a thermal imaging seeker;
- Training missions, which allow you to familiarize yourself with weaponry, now can be played with preset vehicles with preset weaponry via the “Tutorial” menu. Previously, these missions could only be launched after receiving a specific modification through the vehicle modification window.
Game mechanics
- In Ground Realistic Battles, the ability to fly a nuclear carrying aircraft without leaving the current controlled vehicle has been added. When the relatively close amount of spawn points has been accumulated, an inactive button for flying the aircraft will appear on the action panel with an indication of the current amount of spawn points.
When enough spawn points have been accumulated, the button will become active. Taking off with a nuclear carrying aircraft is available when controlling both ground vehicles and aircraft. It is not possible to switch to the controlled vehicle and back, so make sure to safely position your vehicle before using the nuclear carrying aircraft.
- A bug where the nuclear explosion and the “Doomsday” reward could be issued when the battle was a defeat, and after the battle was finished has been fixed. Now, the reward is only given when a bomb explodes, and the bomb will only explode if at least one team still has points left and the mission is not considered finished.
* In Ground Realistic Battles, the nuclear carrying IL-28 and Canberra B Mk 6 now have an air spawn right above the airfield, like the Tu-4 and B-29. This change is meant to reduce the approach time of these nuclear carrying aircraft to the tank battlefield to the values close to other nuclear carrying aircraft. - Following the Roadmap: In Ground Realistic Battles, detection zones for enemy aircraft have been added near air spawn zones and helipads. The size of the detection zones depend on the distance between the corresponding team spawn points: if the distance between them is less than 15 km, then the radius of the detection zone is 2 km, otherwise it is 5 km. When a player in an aircraft is in an enemy detection zone, they will not receive any message letting them know this.
This is because this message is not as useful in air combat as it is for ground vehicles, however the player in an aircraft will be able to see the detection zones on the mini-map when they are in one. When enemy aircraft are in the detection zone, it is shown to the entire team on the mini-map, regardless of their position and condition.
- In Ground Battles, air defense at nearby helipads have been removed, since they only performed the function of detecting enemies, which is now performed by the detection zone. In Simulator Battles, air defense have also been removed, despite the absence of aircraft detection zones, since air defense shots without damage do not combine with other mechanics in this mode.
* In Ground Battles at a Battle Rating of 1.0-2.7, an airfield with a longer runway is used. This airfield was previously used in sessions at a Battle Rating of 3.0-7.3.
* In Ground Battles, closer airfields and closer spawn points are now used in sessions at a Battle Rating up to and including 7.7, rather than 7.3.
* A bug in Ground Realistic and Simulator battles that caused the last player alive in the team to be considered inactive if they had no respawns left and was at an airfield or helipad (even in a fully operational vehicle) has been fixed.
* In Ground Arcade, Realistic and Simulator battles, as well as in Custom Battles sessions with the option “Keep destroyed units” enabled, the repeated effect of the explosion of ground vehicles when the player who controlled this vehicle respawned has been removed.
* A bug where the cable became detached from a towed destroyed ground vehicle at the moment when that player respawned has been fixed. - Following the Roadmap: The ability to select any amount of fuel ranging from the minimum to the maximum values for internal fuel tanks before an aircraft spawn has been added.
* In Helicopter battles (PvE), wagers have been disabled because of the absence of enemy players, similar to how it works in the “Assault” mode.
Sound
- The Leclerc series have received new engine and track sounds, which are different from the previously used sounds of the Abrams and Leopard 2 tanks.
- The AMX-30 series have received new engine and track sounds, which are different from the previously used sounds of the Chieftain tanks.
- The C1 Ariete series have received new engine sounds, which are different from the previously used sounds of the Leopard 2 tank.
- The 2A70 gun has received its own firing and reloading sounds, since the gun has a low muzzle velocity and has a specific automatic loader.
- Piston and subsonic jet engine sounds are now accurately positioned on aircraft models. Previously, when the speed of sound emulation was enabled, they followed behind aircraft models, thereby emulating a sound delay.
- A bug when shooting smoke grenades from enemies and allies sometimes caused the sounds of an ATGM passing by to play for a nearby player has been fixed.
- Norwegian ground vehicle crews in the Swedish tree have received Norwegian voice lines.
- The US ground commander’s voice has been changed.
- Video tips have been added for some aircraft modifications.
Controls
- The ability to control the seeker of air-to-surface missiles and bombs in third-person view has been added. When you turn on the seeker, a mark appears in this view indicating the direction of the seeker coordinator, which follows the mouse pointer and allows the player to lock onto the target by pressing the launch button.**
