I have noticed huge problems recently when playing ground battles and I have seen very few amount of people calling out WarThunder for their overall lack of care or effort when modeling most non-premium tanks
This is very evident with them not modeling lots of pieces of tanks. Most of what I am referring to is going to be USSR (Russia) based although I very strongly believe this has to do with lots of other nations. (This is because I main USSR {Russia})
Modeling of Machine Guns:
This has mostly to do with the newest IS-7 I have seen which has countless machine guns which got me thinking about how many other tanks have lots of machine guns and into my searching. I have seen some with lots of machine guns, they are just not modeled in the game.
So I got confused on why tanks like the PREMIUM IS-7 get all modeled machine guns but other tanks like the TECH TREE T-54 (1947) get machine guns but they are not modeled.
This makes no sense given that it seems ‘pay to win’ if you want an accurately modeled tank because WarThunder only cares to fully model premium tanks.

Modeling of Small Armor Parts:
This is mostly with the T-44 and the T-44 (100) when the T-44 (100) gets small parts of their turret head modeled although the T-44 doesn’t get it modeled giving the T-44 a stronger overall turret because that small unmodeled part can’t be penned and used as a fuse setter for the round.
Although this is also shown in the IS-2’s and IS-1 where their water splash guards are modeled (as armor) in one but not in the other and also with their headlights causing one to have their headlight modeled as steel but the other one not.

Please explain to me why this is your decision WarThunder or just PLEASE FIX THIS ISSUE. It doesn’t seem obvious why you wouldn’t because it seems like a generally very easy fix. I don’t want to be rude since I don’t have the most insight into the work at Gajin although I would really love to see a fix.
Please Reply if you notice any mistakes, since my English isn’t the best and not my first language. Many points I try to get across may be lost in translation. Or hard to follow please stay with me on this one and help me fix this. THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH <3
