The Dev Server is Opening with Major Update “Heavy Cavalry”! — 05.06.2026

[Uhuhuhuhmmm]

Yeah I was really excited when I saw the spread increase to 0.2, now it’s like why even bother changing…

[AspectOfTheRAGE]

Same dispersion as 2A72 on BMP-3/BMD-4 now btw

1.745mrad maximum (1.745m / km)
0.582mrad typical (0.582m / km) - typical = 1 sigma, i.e. 68.27% of shells

Previously, the maximum dispersion was 0.08°, which corresponds to;
<1.4mrad maximum (<1.4m / km)
0.465mrad typical (0.465m / km) - typical = 1 sigma, i.e. 68.27% of shells

Basically, at 1km your maximum dispersion is now worse by a whopping 1.9 Leopard 2 gun barrel diameters.

Shall I remind you that it fires at >9rds per second and a single hit to the muzzle or bore evacuator sufficies to turn your barrel orange, 2 hits to turn it red and 3 to destroy it?

irl, the 2A42’s requirements are not even <= 4mrad max, as the zeroing only requires it to hit 3/4 shells in a 40cm radius at 100m.

Can’t noticeably nerf russian fantasy dispersion afterall ig.

@Smin1080p_WT any updates on the reports for the Puma? Overpressure has been fixed on dev but so far no other changes afaik

[FlyingOstridge]

@Stona_WT

High-explosive projectile 7.5 cm Sprgr.34 — the tracer has been removed. (Report ).

The link on this is wrong and leads to the QF 95 mm HE explosive mass

[PantherBait]

What they need to do is nerf its damage to tank barrels. The US M1296 is 30mm and barely scratches tank barrels.

@Smin1080p_WT Was re-introduction of Mach 1.1 drop limit for GBU-39 a mistake or intended?

@Stona_WT

The game also now features vehicles with limited-time sales, often at a discount. Previously, such vehicles were only available for purchase during certain in-game events and promotions.

I’d prefer not to get additional in-game vehicle sales notifications like this. Seems a little FOMO. I think it should be opt-out in settings.

Hey. The developers are still investigating some Puma reports. Any and all updates will be reflected in the report comments themselves.

Imagine Gaijin actually “buffing” (it’s not really a buff, it’s fixing it to what it should be) the Israeli NERA to actual SLERA, so they don’t have only 5mm of KE protection. (but gaijin wouldn’t)

[genises1o]

no its just cope for the most part the J-15T countermeasure count is accurate as it is

[TheLastYouSee_psn]

@Stona_WT

Hawk 209 — assault modifications of the 250 and 500 lb bombs and the number of AGM-65 and AIM-9 guided missiles that can be equipped simultaneously has been increased to 4

so with this happening, will the Hawk 200 RDA and the Hawk 200 also receive their ADEN gunpod? they could both use the same gunpod as fitted to the Hawk 209

[Psusennes]

How about doing a quick fix and getting the yaw damper enabled on the NF-5A?

Hey. Unfortunately neither could use a gunpod. They have different fuselage interference points compared to the production 200 series. So the gunpod cant fit.

[TheLastYouSee_psn]

Are you sure, as far as i can tell there are pictures online of various Hawk 200s all sporting those gunpods, it seems pretty universal for the Hawk 200 to support that particular gunpod.
It would seem odd that the Hawk 200s used to sell the plane to customers could not mount a weapon that seems to be almost universally adopted by opperators of the type.

@Stona_WT

A mechanic for transferring ammunition between magazines containing identical shells has been added. To prevent situations where one or more guns stop firing due to depletion or detonation, automatic transfer of identical shells from other magazines, if available, has been added. A short time after a magazine is empty, it will begin to replenish from other magazines. Replenishment occurs either until a certain time has elapsed (this varies for different calibers, but no longer than two minutes) or until the quantities in both magazines are equal. The transfer time for one shot depends on the ship’s caliber and size. The number of shells transferred at a time depends on the number of guns in the turrets supplied by the magazine being replenished.

Why is it still forced to be enabled? on the updated DEV server?

Theres no images of the base Hawk 200 or RDA with gunpods.

@TheLastYouSee_psn

The production Hawks for export customers have gunpods. This is only for the two prototype / pre production examples found in the British tree.

[Fluffy_Bucketles]

This one looks like user error, even by the standards of that cannon lol

[GitGood]

master was moved after Italian Tonka. Nice, now i can research it without putting effort into entire attacker line

[Dontkev-psn]

(Its back to 0.2)

• for some other Russian/Chinese 30mm aswell
