Ah cool didnt see that. Thanks!

Drop the 2 hangar files in your main WT dev directory (same places we’re aces.exe is located). Find the config.blk, then add in the line it says to add in the first block of items in the config file.

It should then be available when a US jet is selected.

Michael Changelo Major Changelog updated ;)
New lines marked green font.

  • Tornado IDS SLE

  • Kari

  • The conditions at which aircraft contrails appear is now more realistic. The altitude has been increased to ~9.5 km at +15°C sea-level temperature, and to ~5 km at -25°C sea-level temperature.

  • LAV-AD — a bug that caused the rear pair of wheels to not appear in X-ray view has been fixed. A bug that caused the last missile to always remain in the hull even when all the missiles were spent has been fixed.
  • Stormer AD — the “Adjustment of fire” modification has been added.
  • M901 — “Horizontal drive” modification has been added.

  • J2M3, J2M5 — a bug that caused strong camera shake in cockpit view at high speeds has been fixed.
  • C.R.714 — a bug that caused the aircraft to spawn in on the runway moving has been fixed.
  • J2M4 Kai — a bug that caused the engine power to be too low at altitudes higher than 7000 meters has been fixed.
  • F4U (all variants) — the operation of the mixture regulator has been adjusted. Now, if the mixture is too lean, the engine will stall (only when using full engine control).

  • For all aircraft torpedoes in Arcade Battles, the maximum drop altitude and maximum drop speed limitations have been set to x5 of their realistic values (this was previously set to x3).

Good to see Germany finally getting a counterpart to the GR.4, even if it is a year late.
And maybe we can see the RET.8 get upgraded to a similar standard?

I Sistine what you did there

@Stona_WT, are we going to lose Chieftain 900 even though Orson officially announced the devblog of it?

I still can’t see her in the dev server patch notes.

9.0 😬
That is wild

Chieftain 900 is in the dev server, it is coming, just missing from the patchnotes

Mk.5 + more horsepower, makes sense its 0.3 above

Why?

Its gunna perform almost identically to the Mk10.

Can anyone give me an idea of what map to ban which will have a ~5Km Contrail height following this change?

Im guessing its any map with snow.

And extra armour and extra penetration and LRF
Then at the same BR you got shit like the A1A1 with no armour, lower penetration, no LRF, and only slightly better mobility
Hell, it’s a lower BR than crap like the M48 Super or CM11 or Strv 105
And this is gonna fight unstabilized 8.0s 💀

Sorry mate, I simply skipped it somehow (I guess its streamlined shape curved the light so much, that I didn’t notice it!).
Changelog fixed. Thanks for patience!
