He asks if those two Stingrays will have cosmetic differences in model level, not just skin level

Because Italy did not bring enough money for some period. That is my explanation.

Sure there is a Palmaria too but Gaijin implemented Celere Sahariano as a premium while a mid Stuart as a TT vehicle. Both at same BR. Originality is irrelevant and out of their minds

They certainly were not. I am only taking the Tan-SAM kai as an example here, but SPYDER is the same story, actually even worse. Three months passed since Leviathans went live and the only change the Tan-SAM kai got was the launchers firing at a bit of an angle, and even that was executed poorly. The most important things like giving the IR missile its missing UTDC, or IOG+DL (effectively LOAL) were not even touched. Something being accepted means absolutely nothing for War Thunder, it just means that the suggestion moderators reviewed the sources and claimed it sourced properly for consideration, not that it will ever be considered or even implemented.

This is not a matter of some cosmetic errors or other things of very little impact on the gameplay, these severely impact the performance of a given vehicle. It is absolutely beyond me how it went below the devs radar for so long.

I’d actually take this back, as the two hulls I identified as first and second prototype turned out to be the first prototype at different points in time and mounting different turrets.

So that means I’ll need to look into the the second prototype to find confirmed images.

I did find at least one written source though stating that it was allegedly completed to “production drawings” in 1986, meaning whatever this tank looks like seems appropriate for a US production variant.

Note this was still a prototype completed the year before the Thai order was placed, and still doesn’t mean this tank was the exact same as the Thai version

There was also this image attached which shows a different configuration, using the prototypes LFP mounting points, but also square mirrors instead of the usual round ones and the machine gun mount in the same position as the production tanks.
If this is the second prototype that would mean there’s still some small differences to the Thai version I could then report, though it’s worth noting this could still just be the first prototype at a later point in time.

Anyways I’ll go correct some Stingray stuff I wrote on here with this new found information so people don’t start to believe stuff that’s wrong… I should really stop writing these things while researching instead of after…

I’ll also not write about the Stingray on the forum until I can definitively say what the first and second prototypes of the Stingray were

Leave out beans on toast and I agree

Im afraid that’s just not correct or accurate. As I said, the majority have actually been fixed or resolved, with those still open being in the minority. Many of which are suggestions and not bugs.

The Spyder has 53 resolved / fixed reports to 9 open
The Tan-SAM Kai has 40 resolved / fixed and 12 open

Who the hell put beans on toast on a full English ?

the brits apparently

The Tam-Sam still has the catastrophic bug in where if pick to carry both the ARH and IR version of the missiles, if you are in the radar vehicle and select any of the two missiles, the launchers will always reload the moment you switch to them, they will always start to reload from the scratch. Inside the 12 open but that alone makes carrying 2 of them basically useless and nearly makes the entire system useless.

Ofc SPYDER has it’s own stuff aswell, but just wanted to remark the Tam-Sam case.

If you are referring to this issue: Community Bug Reporting System

it is under active investigation by the devs and is already marked as a higher priority issue of those outstanding.

Is the CLAWS getting any attention? It’s funny how they made the 9X block 2 worse than a Strela
Although I suppose that this is realistic according to Gaijin

Yeah, was that one. Glad to hear that, thanks and have a nice night Smin

This feedback would help. It would be a good idea to have someone gather what the devs are working on fixing and let people know that something is happening with the bugs. It would bring peace to a lot of players knowing that they’re actively working on it.

Cuz otherwise, with reports as old as the ones on Tan-SAM kai, one may conclude that Gaijin doesn’t care.

The only major open forwarded report on the CLAWS is regarding the AN/MPQ-64 Radar performance.

Other than that, its suggestions for other loadouts.

If you believe something else is incorrect with the vehicle, it would be best to report it.
