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.

Nice

So they are back in rotation?

5

Has an open/closed indication finally been added to the hud for the F106 with this change?

6

So, still nothing for the ASRAD’s ammo bug?

7

Can you investigate the BEAT-155 SAP shell’s current performance? It atomizes super heavies on any track impact.

8

Yup. Totally needed server maintenance for this /s

This is really neat! It’s still missing from the X-Ray filter, but it’s there as long as you don’t touch anything.

Gosh they have ruined the F-106, it used to be realistic and made you think about when to open and close the doors. Now they spring upon and closed at unrealistic speeds like as if the game is only an arcade simulation.

Please gaijin return it to the original state. It’s comical to look at and ruins the aircraft’s unique weapon system.

I didn’t get the aircraft in the event for such an unrealistic change to happen later.

Where exactly is that? Is it those light purple compartments in X-Ray view? I don’t see “Crew” it in the X-Ray filter list.

Another patch, another time the Block 2s broken aps is ignored (still only the frontmost part with 2 charges works)

16

No, it’s realistic. The bomb bay was tied to the weapons control system and would automatically open and close as part of the missile firing sequence.

The only thing unrealistic about them at the moment is that the missile is ignited before the doors are fully open and the missile rails are extended (so there should be a delay of about a second to allow the animation to complete), everything else is much closer to how it should be.

Really? I have never heard of that at all??

If this is true, then they need to fix the animation time. But it’s quite an abrupt change from before, and we can no longer have the bay open on demand with the open and close bomb-bay door keybind.

19

no R-27 fix?

The animation time is correct, the doors really are that fast (they use 2000 psi pneumatics), it’s just the missile launch that needs a 1,4 second delay, it’s in the bug report already linked in the opening post.

Fix the TURM tank, bunch of scammers!!!

Or revert the gun stabilizer update that apparently broke it.

It shouldnt take this long to get broken premium vics fixed
