Hopefully we get a Zeppelin specific event in future so we can earn the L30 Zeppelin and others!!! So many of us are unhappy that we did not get to earn them at this recent event. So hopefully we get them sometime soon aswell as more WW1 aircraft.

The F-117 has much better stealth than the F-22 and F-35 but is still seen by radar on aircraft in top tier. This is because for the time it was flying the F-117 was the only true Stealth (Nuclear Bomber) that existed. Though it could be seen with reflections, unless it’s bombbay was open you could not lock it with most 50-60’s radar (technology) seen in the world. However it was phased out because radar can see stealth aircraft within the distance of guided weaponry drops at low altitude or high.
The problem is War Thunders maps are too small on average at top tier. The F-22 and F-35 models respectively are only stealth aircraft because as delivery platforms they can lock and fire radar weaponry (aim-120’s) comfortably outside the range of the enemies radar detection (though their rwr might pick it up). If an F-22 or F-35 gets too close ofcourse they will be seen.
If we get good massive maps like the english channel map, then bvr stealth aircraft will be very very useful against all aircraft not chaffing, multipathing and notching against radar missile attacks.
But currently you will see the F-22 easier than when you find the F-117. (And normally you see it with radar within a good distance of the map with top tier radars unless they are flying low using the terrain).
I seriously doubt that

Better stealth than the F-35, yes, than the F-22 certainly not
Although exact values of the F-22’s stealth are classified it’s known to be far stealthier than the Nighthawk

It was added as a premium in a flash sale last year, only available from August 2nd until the 8th.

The emblem of the 117th Squadron “First Jet" is already present in the game and obtainable by making 350 kills with aircraft.
Will it be replaced with the black background? @Smin1080p_WT
Hi. There was an error in the article, we will offer different decal

I never said ww1 vehicles won’t come. I’m just saying that they won’t get special treatment. Liekly just added at 1.0 or at most 0.7 where they still get to fight tanks 20 years younger.
It’s less advanced in literally every way regarding stealth

This is the more important metric honestly. Yeah sure a million and a half people played it but how many of those played it for more than say 5 games?
As i said the mode was fun… for like 5 minutes. It got stale very quickly and the horrific imbalance in the mode didn’t help.

Glad to know I can skip this one :shrug:
Me knowing I can completely skip this event and focus on life since I can’t be bothered to play Air RB (Air Sim slaps hard though :P )
