The JAS39 and Mirage 4000 radars have been reconfigured according to updated data. The detection and identification of them by different RWRs is configured.

A bug that caused the survivability percentage displayed in the hitcam to not match the actual percentage when attacking a target with an upgraded crew has been fixed.

The current provided changelog reflects the major changes within the game as part of this Update. Some updates, additions and fixes may not be listed in the provided notes. War Thunder is constantly improving and specific fixes may be implemented without the client being updated.
Tbh from what we’ve seen they are very open about nerfing the Gripen (probably to satisfy the 95% of players that play a different nation), so it would actually make sense if they wanted to hide a buff since the other players would start to complain. The only difference I’ve noticed is that you can now use full-sweep for the radar when using TWS, so at least one buff.
Will they ever fix the planes with a bugged LITENING II pod like the F-16C. This has been in the game for months and has been acknowledged. @Stona_WT any update would be nice, thanks.
I’m skimming the raw datamine github comparison file and it looks like the RDM-3 and PS-05A were added to RWRs of a bunch of aircraft.
I think they kinda forgot to add their radars to other aircraft sensors as I recall in the past getting hit by a ? mark at times which is likely the change
Well before it showed up as a F-16 on RWR. now it will show up correctly.
but i’m more interested in the “radars have been reconfigured according to updated data” part.
It was changed from the F16D radar to what I assume is a radar based upon Data for the Blue Vixen radar. Which was one of the best mechanical radars ever built. Was said to outperform An/Apg-73 on the F15 despite being half the size.
So should be a very good buff. (If it’s modelled correctly) Just a shame we have no decent BVR yet
