Next Major Update - Rumor Roundup & Discussion

Don’t forget about the Challenger 2 130mm

And the Leclerc T4 140mm

If being more advanced is not a problem, there also is the KF51, the KF51-U CUT and the EMBT ADT 140 (which hasn’t been suggested yet)

The Leopard 2 A-RC and the Leclerc Evolution can be equipped with bigger guns as well, if I remember correctly

Also just found this abomination, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't work

Edit: found another one, the CAPINT ADT140

@Smin1080p_WT The famos T58 is like hard to balance, so why did it come to the game, if it would just make drama?

Because people wanted it to come to the game and it is a real vehicle

It’s not actually hard to balance, Gaijin claims that reload rates are a soft-balance tool after all

They just don’t want to upset the people that bought it by nerfing the reload rate lol

Spoiler

And maybe get rid of the 12.7mm, anti aircraft machine guns are optional after all

Its a 120mm barrel, the British 140mm was never mounted properly on a vehicle. There was a centurion used as a mobile test stand for some firings, but that was literally a ground test stand plopped on top of a spare centurion they had laying around, not really a suitable addition.

Oh, aight

I was kinda wondering why the gun looks more like a 120, while people keep claiming that it was a 140

I have seen the stationary testing rig though and I know that it propably wouldn’t work as a real tank

This suggestion hopefully comes to the game someday though:

Because it can come into game and it’s balanced where it is now if anything decompression is needed and it needs to be removed form the store and be brought back every once a year well every premium should it would benefit both gajin and the community

@Smin1080p_WT are you guys going to summarize the survey results you’ve been sending out after the recent updates? As far as I remember those are relatively new but there hasn’t been a follow up after the data is collected

there is the front plate was said to be wrong

https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/Hhvb65RGCpqN

The surveys are for us and the developers to review and assess regarding feedback for the major updates. What people liked, disliked and what they would like to see.

So they likely saw the holy suggestion then : P

when are the next BR changes due?

Rocket planes still being at 8.3 is criminal, like why is the BI at 6.7 while the Ki-200 at 8.3 ?

I don’t mean to be rude, but the second part of that sentence suggests that the sub-trees are meant to replace and supersede the Japanese designs. For instance, the Fuji T-1 has capabilities similar to the Thai L-39 or F-84 but isn’t quite as good, so it would effectively be replaced by them. Or take the Kawasaki XT-4: it has capabilities similar to the Alpha Jet, but the latter performs better—thanks to its 27mm cannon versus the XT-4’s 7.7mm minigun—so the Alpha Jet replaces the XT-4.

Not at all. The Japanese tree cant be covered by domestic aircraft at every BR. In other cases, there are aircraft from its sub trees that may be more functionally useful in some situations. These do not “replace” domestic aircraft, which can always appear in the future as well. Our priority is expanding the Japanese tree with functionally useful and complementary vehicles for existing line-ups.

so do i, but more challengers is always welcomed to

I get it—the standard answer is always “Sub-trees don’t replace native vehicles.” But that’s hard to believe, given that so many post-war CAS aircraft from sub-trees have been added, yet Japanese ones are still missing—despite there being a few options available.

An additional question: what determines whether a given aircraft has a custom payload? Why, for instance, do the D4Y1/2/3 have them, while the A6M5 Hei and A6M6C do not? Or why do the F-86F-30 and -40 lack them, whereas the CA-27 Mk.32 has them?
