The website for Aces of Thunder has been updated:
We’ve already been told that WW1 aircraft and tanks won’t come to WT, so the four Great War aircraft that have been devblogged there so far( plus any other that appear later ) likely won’t be coming here.
However, the WW2 aircraft that Aces shares w/ WT might see some changes here - they might have their visual models reworked to a higher fidelity since they’ll be viewed from closer than before, similar to how tanks shared w/ Enlisted have gotten visual overhauls as of late.

This just makes me cry, I want WW1 as much as anyone here

I know WW1 content has been denied for now but was said it might come in the future but has it since been hard denied to never come?
Also it looks like we will see some early jet’s in Aces of Thunder, There’s an Me-262 in 2 of the images there.
Spoiler
Don’t know yet if they will just be AI targets or playable aircraft.
I mean this isn’t ground breaking since it’s literally War Thunder but only in Sim and VR which what makes me even more mad really, we know we want WW1, they know we want WW1 so why can’t we have WW1 ?

Honestly I have zero interest in WW1 planes and tanks. I know a lot of forum users want them, but I’m not one of them.
I’m not going to be mad if they do get added though, it’s just not for me.
Yeah since it’s all under Gaijin and is using the same game engine it should be relatively easy to put new models for Aces over into War Thunder. It would make sense to do it as they already seem to be taking assets from War Thunder and tweaking them for VR so it can be done.
Also would be a great way of getting bomber cockpits modelled. Have the Aces Team model the bomber interior for VR and just paste it onto the War Thunder model.
Im ready to barrage them with bug reports when they butcher another CVR(T)
It 's just due to the performance of the vehicles involved, appearently. And that 's a fair concern imo, the late-WW1 aircraft they’ve confirmed for Aces so far would need to have their flight metrics improved by 200% or more to be comparable w/ the current 1.0 reserves here - maybe that 's fine for a singleplayer/co-op PvE campaign game, but there 's not really any room for that kind of thing here.
Tanks would be even worse off, for example the Renault FT had the same gun as a number of the removed French reserves while not having the armour or mobility that those were already lacking.
see how they go below the reticle?
If we ever get into the territory of planes that so far only exist as 3D renders and mock-ups, I’m pretty sure the F-47 would be anything but unbeatable lol
The F-47 isn’t a mock up anymore it’s real. It’s flown and it’s ready to be produced meaning it will be the best fighter jet in the world for the next 30 or so years if I had to guess.

Nah no production F-47 yet. They flew X-planes and prototypes (maybe YF-47?)
They did mention “unprecedented maturity” so maybe there is a YF-47 with avionics and able to fire missiles?
Ready to be produced? Yeah nah man lol
As far as Gaijin is concerned that thing only exists as a mock-up, because there is nothing known about the supposed prototype except for a picture.
I love how the cursor reticle is below the HUD reticle as well lol
That’s not an issue, people want more game modes and unique stuff to grind this is gaijins golden ticket right here. New air trees with WW1 (Class) tags and can be only used in that mode not regular air battles and boom content for a whole new year.
I thought he said it will be ready to be produced soon.
And all the things trump said about it.

Soon, but no proof of it happening now
There is also stuff on USAF website about it
Also he is getting all the info from the Air Force anyways
