Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

There could still be room for fractional improvements present within war thunder where a group of vehicles would otherwise be lacking (eg LDIRCM pods for AH-64E family outside of the US operated one), which would go a long way in balancing out heli combat at the upper echelons, at the cost of stringest additions (Dutch LDIRCM AMASE pods instead of CIRCM for example)

Chances of teaser are slim but never zero

Never 0🙏🏻

Have faith in the 1%

believing in the extraordinarily Unlikely is closer to madness rhan Faith

What are we hoping for todays dovbleg? Boat? ploon? another random premium vehicle?

Gnat or Gannet or Type VII

how realistic is this? not at all

Hopefully a tank, but wouldn’t be surprised with a boat

I completely understand why people dislike copy paste sub trees, as it makes trees less unique. However with the grind being as brutal as it is, especially for tanks, I think the more diversity the trees can have, the better. Not everyone has the time or the will power to grind all the trees.

The only issue I have with all the sub tree additions, especially at top tier is the big 3 ironically get the short end of the stick because they export their equipment all over the world, and don’t typically import equipment, leaving them with less diversity. For example for MBTs at top rank, the US only has Abrams, Germany only has Leopards.

Right now with Thailand, and the possible future additions of Indonesian, and Malaysian ground, Japan for example could potentially have the Type 90, Type 10, Oplot-T, VT-4, PT-91M, and Leopard 2RI. WAY more variety than the Big 3.

At the cost of less consistency, which imo is a good tradeoff.

A 6 vehicle lineup with 2-4 of those being unique MBTs with different playstyles is far more enjoyable to play than a nation with a very similar tank going from 10.0->12.7 (eg. Sweden, Germany, USA), at the cost of those unique MBTs having different drawbacks vs 1 type of MBT with the same weaknesses to learn.

They even directly said it would be added soon, “shortly after” more Indonesian additions specifically.

My guess is we’ll see an update with some Indonesian ground vehicles, then Malaysian aircraft the update after.

Mach 3… but there’s a catch ahh

Mig-25 will be niche at best, Mig-31 is what people should be excited about

And accuracy…if it doesnt destroy the whole vehicle when you shoot the turret then you have to ask why.

Not really one of the best, it’s fun and it’s good, it’s not as good as pl8b, pl5e2, aam4 or magic 2.

Mig29 radars are pretty good, they have a tight narrow scan and an hand.

Obviously they got what they wanted, if they added it tomorrow theyd cry just as much.

IMHO, Gaijin should split the TT’s like naval ones was.
WWII → Korean war and Cold War → modern age.
