Not any less historically accurate than the current collection of teams. Which also is the root to this problem
@Smin1080p_WT is there any word on radarless and very early radar and gun only AA having their AI reworked to not target ordinance such as bombs and missiles to mirror how said systems couldnt IRL?

The current rosters are based on a set era and time period. All NPC vehicles are from this period, which is one of the main features between each BR range.
Sadly Kuznetsov simply wouldnt fit here. Team composition is done for matchmaking purposes and can always change in future iterations.

I did about 15 matches and every single one was on redfor. So that simply isn’t the case
Britain is ALWAYS on redfor
While npc vehicle roster is based on time period, player roster is based on brs which lets more modern stuff like a10, su25 (even su25bm), f117 etc participate in this mode despite not being related to vietnam in any way. And vice versa some vietnam era jets cant participate in this mode because of br limitations.
Wait is this mode back?
When it was active
Unfortunately not. Matches are made without Britian on the Red side. Plenty of games have taken place as such. What team they are on depends on the current matchmaking pool at the time.
Ah I just got bit of hope
And the nature of the MM is that Britain is on redfor 99.99999% of the time

I personally find maybe the name was no the best choice, fuelling the assumption it’s really fixed to a period in time, whereas in WT the whole matchmaking in most cases sis always based on capabilities, so vehicles across eras encounter each other.

I played well over 40 matches of Nuclear Escalation and never got assigned to BLUFOR while playing Britain…

Do you happen to know when we can expect other maps for NE? Are they planned to come when the mode becomes permanent or is it possible we might see one in one of the tests?
Which is very inaccurate
I reckon it might be nice to see BRs specifically for NE, (as how arcade, realistic, air and ground have different Brs for the same aircraft). Since things like the A10 are obviously going to have lower BRs in ARB since that doesn’t have A2G as a primary focus, whereas in NE it does. Though this, if it ever happens, will probably wait until we get it permanently.
It’s possible if this system is added it will make the asynchronistic BRs be more in line with real life time periods.
I agree with your point, but I would like to suggest another option:
Only allow nuke spawning and re-arming at the main airbase.
It makes sense thematically (why would a relatively low security forward airbase have a stash of nukes?) and it helps slow the pace of ticket bleed.

War thunder universe brits had a vision of a10 going blue on blue against brits in future

Again, do you have any statistics for how many times it was only soviet, or soviet/china, vs the rest?
