multipath height is around 150FT or a lil lower depending on angle of the missile
WHY are these trees 150FT tall like there taller than most of the buildings on the map there way to tall its not on all maps but it makes multipathing properly impossible so planes that have zero chaff die please change this its really bad for stock planes

I think the biggest trees are the palm and pine trees, the biggest ones are almost 50 meters high. Does WT take place in the Mesozoic period?

I think it comes from the olden days where War Thunder only had WW2 era air combat.
The trees were made taller (and really even some of the buildings are a little large) so that you can see them better from the sky. A number of older flight sims did this “enlargement” too.
But like most things in War Thunder, adding new premiums brings in money, updating the trees does not. Unlikely the massive trees will ever change.

I think they used to be taller. When they moved multipath down to 60 meters, I remember hearing how the trees would be above that height. IIRC, they could be up to 80 meters tall
I’ve noticed for a while now that the Trees in this game are inconsistently colossal in Air Battles.

Back when the multipath height had just been reduced, they did some tree trimming on “Rocky Canyon, Mysterious Valley, Rocky Pillars, Rice Terraces, Guiana Highlands, Golan Heights, Zhengzhou, Aleutian Islands and South Africa”.
Guess they missed a few.

Gaijin thinks every tree is a California Redwood, those things get up to between 200 to 330ft tall, with the tallest recorded at 380ft!
Someone should make a bug report
