Update 2.59.0.59

Aircraft

  • H8K2, H8K3 — an issue preventing the wing-root turrets from firing has been fixed. (Report).

Nuclear Escalation

  • An issue where SAM systems positioned on high ground would not engage targets flying over water at an altitude lower than the SAM site itself has been fixed.
  • An issue where SAM systems might incorrectly assign low priority to certain targets has been fixed.
  • S-75 and HAWK SAM systems now deactivate their search and tracking radars when threatened by anti-radiation missiles (ARMs) at medium to long ranges.

Graphics

  • A bug that caused ray traced shadows to flicker on aircraft has been fixed. (Report, Report).

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.

Still no aim-7p for f14D:(

So you’ve made the SAMs more powerful. How would they know when they are targeted by passive anti-radiation missiles? By locating them on their radar? If so do you have sources that prove that an archaic S-75 radar for example is able able to locate and track small individual missiles in the first place and secondly in the ranges where their presence now causes them to shut down their radars?

IMO no radar should be able to track missiles unless the capability is proven by confiable source. And in no case at the same ranges as aircraft (basic common sense that wouldn’t require a source). This would’ve saved us from Iron Dome / MCM.

Another update, no F-102A’s armament fixes.

SAM’s made more annoying to fight. Could you at least give ALARM it’s loitering capability to combat this?

“Reported issue 3 years ago”

Why would it literally take them 3 years to fix a number?

I’m officially done with this gamemode,I can’t possibly dedicate more time to this when y’all not only ignore community feedback but rather go against it without even bothering to explain your reasoning.Back to asking for ARBEC!

What kind of dark magic technology would these radar systems have to detect a missile has been shot at their location because their radars emit radiation?

W, more realistic and allows for the suppression element of SEAD instead of just trading missiles with the SAMs

Yes why not give better aim bot to SAM and also make them invincible. I mean you can just remove game mode no need to make us all suffer. Thank you

How do you think a radar designed to detect and track airborne objects could detect and track an airborne object?
