War Thunder "Air Superiority" - Changelog

However, we still don’t know when gaijin will repair the A7V’s hull armor and maneuverability, it may be 1 year, or it may never

Germany and American mains are discussing LFP armor and 673mm shells.
Meanwhile France and Italy mains have to play their MBT like light tanks, the former with 575mm of pen …
The dissonance from one nation to another is appalling

Italy may be able to make the Hungarian Leopard 2a7HU in the subline

Significantly?
DM73 is 663mm pen per Gaijins formula.
It’s not needed though because it doesn’t change anything

Italy has no better than the Ariete tbh.
Even AMV Pt 2 with PSO and WAR would just suck.
Only hope is 2A7HU

It would also be nice if the hull armor could be repaired together

Would be nice if we could agree to fix MBTs of all nations to their real performance, or as close as possible.

Tribalistic arguments like “You can’t have X when we still don’t have Y” doesn’t help anybody.

thats the point and that for all higher tiers.

As much as i can agree with that, i think it should be put a stop on some stuff like the ammo. US shouldn’t get M829A3 while there are tanks stuck with DM43 at 11.7 just like other nations with better rounds shouldn’t until there is “parity”, it makes no sense to powercreep the game more, atleast if we talk about rounds, im all down for Leo and Abrams getting their improved hull.

For sure, that is another consideration.

Ammunition selection is one of the central balancing factors (along with reload speed) that Gaijin has made clear they are willing to play fast and loose with.

Ammunition and armor are relative to each other, before you can introduce a more powerful ammunition, you need armor to be strong enough overall to warrant it.

Since most of the current top tier tanks can be frontally penned by 3BM42 (APFSDS available since BR 9.7 on MBT), then I agree, we don’t need better rounds just yet.

M829A3, A4 or DM63/DM73 won’t change anything if Gaijin doesn’t add anti-ERA properties, hell DM53, L27A1 and M338 should be cutting K5 T Series like a hot knife through butter right now.

yep. i already know how to do it

really?


and btw, almost all nato tanks have knockout panels, which makes chance of ammo exploding very low (while t72/80 have shahid’s ammo (and less crew, too) )

you know the panel is only in the turret right?
if you hit the ammo in the hull there are no panels.
and i love how you didn’t adress anything else i said but just pointed out the one tiny detail you could nitpick.

The J-11/SU-27 is very balanced

You have missiles unchaffable (R-27ER) or hardly flareable (R-73).

Give some fix to French missile, and i’ll shot you down ^^"

→ S.530D currently is not ignoring CHAFF in HEAD-ON, while using Pulse doppler mode,…

→ R.550-II is currently modelized without dual plane steering, therefore missing the 50G ability at close range (which makes the HMD/HMS on Mirage 2000-5F useless,…) + a closer IRCCM to AIM-9M level, as testified by many NATO testings,…

I’m not bad at the game and play fine at air RB, my point was that the SU-27S/J-11 was blatantly overpowered and I know how it feels to have a underperforming vehicle since my previous main tech tree was UK ground and aviation.

This seriously needs to be looked at since most tech trees don’t have a counter

Basically my point was that no vehicle should have the power to destroy half the enemy team without rearming

Oh, don’t worry i’m not targeting you personally,… but the Bashing//Biasing is so blatant,…

Having a lot of missile doesn’t bother me, but the quality of all missiles should be on par,… R-27ER and R-73 are designed with no flaws or balancing nerfs → that’s my only point, to give all nations the same standard of modelization quality.

Ironically I find the current sound system far more realistic. The UL frequencies are correct and as a tanker, you don’t hear other engines as easily as you can in War Thunder.

In short, you have to be more conservative in your playing mindset.

I’m absolutely for Italians and French receiving some more accuracy to their armor and rounds if possible. Same as the British/Scots/Welsh.

That being said, I feel the Leclerc is already a very intimidating vehicle with its speed, same as the Type 90 and Type 10.

Please remove Haze and Fog permanently. I literally cannot play like this.
