Dev got updated, i guess Japan finally got something. Anybody know of any other changes?
no av8s yet
I believe the Scimitar lost it’s thermal, which it wasn’t supposed to have
Yup, though the radios still part of the FCS and stop the gun firing it seems when hit…
Seems they’ve removed the night vision modifications completely and will treat it like Fox and not have any NV capability because its BR is low
2.35.1.62 change notes
Why they modelled both Fox and Scimitar with the NV sight door open when they don’t intend for them to have any NV capability at all, and the door should be kept shut during daylight. I have no idea…

Likely because it looks cool having it open I guess.
Really hoping to see the AV8s from Thailand pop into Japan TT at update…

On the contrary, it looks stupid having it open if it’s not involved in night battles. And is making the vehicle more vulnerable by removing an extra chunk of armour that could be in front of the gunner
You and I might think it looks silly, but gaijin likes it i guess.
As a german and german main I am really mad about france getting leo’s.
You take away the strength and the special point of playing germany.
France is strong enough and has enough mbt’s and now you just take the best tanks of the german tech tree and start throwing them on every other nation? Mad af!.
GIVE THE BRIMSTONES NORMAL F&F LIKE THE AGM’s ON THE GR7 AND GRIPPEN.
Its NOT POSSIBLE to fly around a battlefield holding laser lock on a vehicle because:
- Pantisr
- 45sec guidance time at range means Vehicles move behind building. Missile isnt quick enough for Semi-Laser guidance.

Don’t worry it’s just a way to teach french main player that Germany will receive the Mirage 3S

Yes I believe it does get it, but I’m not sure though
France is not strong enough by comparison. But it isn’t because they are lacking MBTs - they are not.
It is the support vehicles that matter and which we didn’t get many of so far.

Japan getting RCV and ICV is a huge W; it was lacking in the light vehicle department, and now they got two of them!
You know how you could put the icing on the cake? If you could fix Type 10’s steering once and for all :/

Seriously, the bug report was accepted 2 years ago and it remains unfixed, and it’s really gamebreaking…

There is no reference documentation available for what they are doing in coming update. I can tell you that did my fair share of internet digging this is all made up stuff & it’s totally absurdly illogical and if this come up in the live servers then what’s the points of discussion, I don’t actually understand its back to square 1 where it all started.
These kinds of unnecessary FUBAR mechanics totally kill the mood to click on war thunder there are lots of places where the DEVS can improve but it’s been sweep under mat.
WAR THUNDER - Is unique one of kind game which you can play with just only a mouse and keyboard without punching a BIG FAT HOLE in your bank account and as per you know WAR and NATIONS are never balanced out so for as per games perspective, I can understand that but to the Ideas to achieve the essence of REALISM in game please do not add any kind of silly senseless irresponsible ill-advised mechanics which just big disappointment.

Also, just to take the piss though - I think it is incredibly funny that the “Leopardization” actually bothers German Mains, because their three gets less unique and they can’t differentiate between enemy and friendly anymore.
I don’t want it either, but at least there’s a funny twist to it!

Word, I’m glad it’s not just locked behind a squadron vehicle.
