Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

DM63 has the same penetration capabilities as DM53. And, as far as I’m aware, DM73 uses the same penetrator as DM53/63, just with slightly higher muzzle velocity. KE2020Neo (I presume that’s what you mean by ‘DM83’) is the only one which will have a noticeable upgrade in penetration.

Yeah its something about having less chances of detonating when being hit? from what I remember

@THEPolishThunder @Dontkev-psn

Does someone know how much pen DM73 and DM83 have? Because i’m wondering why we don’t have them ingame yet despite the OP Russian ERA.

Check this thread out

I mean, there is only a limited amount of real vehicles that can be added, so in theory additions like that are unavoidable

The question is whether War Thunder will keep running for long enough for that to happen

Iirc it is slightly lower as the dm 53 in game is 1750m/s vs 1720m/s from the dm 63

More likely in the 1918 day of waiting, and then it will disappear in the 1939 day of waiting to return in the 1945 day of waiting.

whats COMBAT thrust is this like VMAX mode on the engine or something ? where it just dumps fuel into it to produce more thrust ? sacrificing fuel economy for more power ?

Most aircraft have an engine setting above reheat, but using it for extended periods of time usually causes engine damage.

interesting watch them implement it like AOA switch and just not give it to vehicles that historically have it only a select few devs deem worthy or something

to be fair it kinda make sense for that one first cause its 11.0 at the worst match maker possible the beefy engine is like only thing that makes it good at its br with demons like F5E around
