Closer to CCVL, I think they even used the same hull. Thats why I slightly disagree with the CCVL being an event vehicle, because the british pretty much got a similar vehicle (no autoloader and missing thermals) in their TT. US getting 2 high caliber light tanks locked behind an event back to back (which would have filled BR gaps mind you), and then not getting another one in the TT for 3 years, was some of the worst decision making by Gaijin.

That’s pretty cool, whenever I do research regarding the CATTB or Thumper, I always see that there were 2 different calibers for the same gun, but never looked into it too much.
When can we expect to see an update on what else is getting its turret basket added in coming updates? Been more than long enough since that initial dev blog. You guys seemed pretty adamant the Abrams and Leopards couldn’t be delayed like you did with the FCS modules on Russian and Chinese tanks. I feel safe in making the ststament that a lot of us find it hard to buy any notion there hasn’t been any revised vehicles since then unless the silence on the issue is suppose to be interpreted as “this was really just a nerf for those two families of vehicles as we aren’t actually adding them to other vehicles.”
Any chance on an update on this before/along with the next update?

@Smin1080p_WT when are we going to get the radar gun function on the B-66. Its been several updates now and its still missing this feature

It’s things like this which is disappointing to see missing. A main feature if a vehicle and it’s just completely absent from them.
Also similarly @Smin1080p_WT are you able to say if the retractable gun is being planned to come for the RAH-66 at some point in the future? It was a prominent feature of the Comanche allowing for faster speeds and a lower RCS and it’s a shame that that feature has been omitted from the aircraft.

For people who watch the twitch Warthunder stream with Oxy, one was supposed to start 40 minutes ago. Is it normal for it to be up to an hour late?
What yall think will be the next battlepass vehicle?
Something that’s already in the TT but with a slightly different name.
My bet is the South african jet made by NovA and have a SA theme’d BP
Sure hope so, that means we don’t have to grind it.
I know not made by NovA but for something South African and similar to his OV-10 model would be peak if it is the Mwari.
And looking for images for the C-101EB

I’d love to see more of his work come to the game especially the OV-10 that model looks amazing.

Looking at the previous 21 Battle Pass seasons, only Japan currently lacks its own BP. So I speculate that this time will have a Japanese theme, with the ultimate reward being a ground vehicle, and the most likely option being the ST-A2(B).ST-A2(B)

Not really quite a few vehicles can get them as they did tests with them but its for gaijin to add them
You have to remember gaijin is who decides if a vehicle gets what it had IRL

Can’t be worse than a fictional French M46 with the least original French name in Adobe’s default font slapped on the side, right?
In all honestly though considering BP vehicles are never more than tier IV and are usually based on ingame vehicles. I’d like to see a British Mustang with the malcolm hood.
