And the poor coastal ships, too… Hopefully general decompression of naval forces comes soon, I can’t stand boats like VLT-1 and 2 being put against the monsters like Douglas, Adams/Lutjens, and SKR-7.

Well those missile ships are just for Nuclear Thunder as AI target. They’re having a hard time trying to figure out how to make anti-ship missiles naval warfare enjoyable for WT small scale naval battles.
So not sure when they’ll arrive.

there is the lutjens for germany from year 1966. in game already so i think thats not a problem it has anti air missiles already.
Anti-air missiles and anti-ship missiles are truly different beasts.
For right now, I think it’s OK that the modern ships are targets/defenses in Escalation. It will take some time to get the game to a place that’s ready for such modern ships-- submarines will be a part of that equation.

It’s baffling how much further in technology the mobile version is, even the main game lags behind in early missile armed ships while many of the early types are seen in mobile, eg: Type 12I Batch 2/3 (forget which one).

My idea…
- go back to the vertical tech trees in naval, to give players easier time to field diverse lineups
- present Naval players a proper PvE mode with dynamic objectives for different classes of vessels
a. Costal and Destroyers are tasked with eg.: mine clearing, sub chasing. By following the objectives they accumulate SP for spawning…
b. Cruisers and Battleships tasked with engaging enemy fleet and ground targets - player controled submarines would fit this scenario too
- and it could accomodate CV task force
…we are playing against bots most of the time anyway…

personally, if they ever get added, then with another collab event with war thunder mobile since they already have proper missile ships
also, here’s a few gameplay snippets (don’t mind how bad I was lol)

Instead of adding missiles, we should think first about the rowork of br and ways to implemt other systems that should be available on those ships

this may not be entirely related to the thread but is there some way of checking whats in WT mobile without downloading the app?
For example, I have this idea about aiming rework (i’ve just updated it)
