Update 2.47.0.72

Aircraft

  • EF-2000, Typhoon FGR.4, F-2000A — the size of the scan zones in TWS mode have been changed to make their use more convenient. The tracking and matching of “tracks” (information about targets in radar’s computer) with “contacts” (valid received radar beam reflections) of targets have been improved in all TWS scan modes, which reduced the amount of “phantom” targets appearing on the radar screen. The limitation on the speed of roll stabilization of the radar scan zone has been removed, as the electronic stabilization of the scan zone has been added. TWS GMTI mode for tracking ground targets has been added. The IRST’s target acquisition speed and scan speed in a wide scan zone have been increased. Scan zone roll stabilization has been added to the IRST.
  • F-15 (all variants), F-16 ( all variants ), F/A-18 ( all variants ), MiG-29 ( all variants ), Su-27 ( all variants ), J-11 ( all variants ), Su-30SM, Su-33, Su-34 — for ease of maneuvering, the camera in 3rd person view has been moved slightly further back.

Naval Vessels

  • A bug that caused the research bonus to not be applied to naval vessels of Rank VII has been fixed.

Locations and missions

  • Malta — a bug that caused some grass in the location to disappear and any grass left to be the wrong color has been fixed.

Sound

  • Ammo explosions on naval vessels now have their own sounds.
  • All modifications of M109 (including XM975) have received their own engine sounds.

Patch notes reflect only key changes, meaning they may not include a complete list of all improvements made. Additionally, War Thunder is constantly being updated and some changes may not require an update. Changes reflected in patch notes are formed by taking reactions and requests of the community from the bug reporting service, forums and other official platforms into account. Bug fixes and changes are implemented in order of importance, for example a game-breaking bug will be worked on and implemented sooner.

As you saw with todays update and in each major, new sounds are added frequently. Its just a matter of when they can be done.

I wonder, are the new sounds realy "freshly"recorded from an IRL tank, or is the sound from Videos online?

Is the IRST change EFT specific or global among top tier IRST’s ?

i don’t understand why Claws are not getting any fixes i wasted all of time to grind that Spaa and the Radar is broke and the IRST does not work it’s buggy sometime it detects sometimes it does not
these spaa are more important than the Aircrafts the major update was focused on Spaa and spaa does not even work it’s so frustrating it’s been long time

Edit:
in test drive it work fine but in battle it’s buggy the Radar have hard time to lock enemy jets also the IRST options does not work even if l click on it

Todays change is specifically for the EFTs, as the notes mentioned.

Update has created radar-breaking bug on all typhoons. If you’re like me and cycle between radar modes, you have to cycle through all radar modes to get back to the one you want. Well, with this update the moment you switch to GTMI then you will be unable to use TWS or PD STT to launch radar missiles. Every time I try to lock a plane using TWS after cycling between radar modes it fails. It tries to lock using GTMI which obviously won’t work on airborne targets.

Looking forward to hearing M109 sound!

I finally came around to work on spading US M109 (Sherridan dropped to 5th rank so I can use it for unlocking that). I spaded it many times now, but it was always different nation:)

One of my favorite HE slingers actually.

You can bug report it here (just search a bit first so that you don’t report something that is already reported and known about): (Gaijin.net // Issues)

A guide on how to report bugs can be found here: ([Navigation] Technical Knowledge Base | War Thunder Wiki)

Radar modes need to be grouped or be able to be key bind separately
Having to Cycle every mode is not sustainable in the Heat of Battle

There’s this really cool feature before you spawn in a game where you can choose the radar mode you want to start off in 😀

Also, your “lock target” bind usually switches to either HMD to ACM (depending on if your aircraft has HMD or not, though iirc Phantoms usually default to ACM first and you need to switch to HMD after) if you press it with your radar off

They need to get a license to use copyright protected recordings, or record it themselves and have a new copyright protected recording.

Did they change the sidewinders sounds? Or not? In ARB it is sounding life before but in GRB is a much lower pitch

I love these random minor terrain update notes. Isn’t Malta an air map? Who is seeing the color of the grass on an air map? :)

@Stona_WT Will the missing RP bonus be applied retroactively for those who were shorted? (I think I know the answer… but wishful thinking and all that.)

Why can’t we have the option to have the old settings? The S-25 looks bigger than the SU-27, my mig-29 looks like an RC plane. slightly ain’t so slightly.
