Hi all,
Recently there has been a ton of discussions about naval guns, in particular in the context of the Rank VII vessels, which inspired me to update my old navy shells table, and the project eventually ended with its own site:
https://jareelskaj.github.io/wt-wiki-tools/naval_weapons_table
At the bottom of the page there is a legend explaining what all of these columns mean. ⚠️ Please, remember to avoid using datamines in your bug reports, as this will get them instantly closed (though it is fine to use them in the discussions on the forum).
The table contains some projectiles which are missing ships (e.g. 76/62 APFSDS) - this is not an error, they are present in the game files, but not used anywhere in the game itself.
I will do my best to keep this page up to date.
Click to read about the source code
The script that has generated the table can be found at https://github.com/JareelSkaj/wt-wiki-tools/blob/main/naval_weapons_table.py (it requires wt-tools installed).
With it, you can generate --outputformat html and insert the resulting code directly into naval_weapons_table.html to have your own updated version of the page (the reason why both: the table page and the script itself are both just one very long page is to make that process as easy as possible).
This makes it as future-proof as possible, ensuring that the community members themselves will be able to explore the datamines even if I would be away from War Thunder. The script can also generate wikitext, CSV and JSON for your own data analysis or use on your own websites/scripts (you are fee to do anything you would like to with either the script or its outputs).
Special thanks to:
@gszabi99 (the god of datamines), @themadseventeen, the entire war thunder datamining community, @gag09, @Dese_Tsuterikka
If you would like to show appreciation - share the link to the page with people that might be interested - as that’s why I’m doing this, to help the community - like this post and if you know how to, give a star on github. :)
