I demand to block access to the War Thunder project from Gaijin Entertainment on the territory of the European Union, Great Britain, USA Gaijin Entertainment collects secret data that may threaten national security. Users of the online game War Thunder regularly post classified drawings of military equipment online, according to Techspot. The documents concerned the British Challenger 2 main battle tank, the French Leclerc main battle tank and the Chinese DTC10-125 tank round. It should also be prohibited for persons undergoing military service to establish and have an account in War Thunder

@Manuel - That would be a problem with the often nationalistic Warthunder community. Neighboring nations often had disputes between them, often for territories. This is the case with poland and CSSR (guess who was taking a piece of the CSSR cake when Germany started the war against the Czechs?) and, but a bit prior in history, happend to the relationship between Portugal and Spain too.

[@spikey316]

You should add a feature that when you land you can change your ordnance loadout. Lets say I was playing a F-4 Phantom and I was bombing away at tanks and now there are enemy aircraft in the skies, I could fly back to base a rearm with a Air to Air loadout instead. Maybe when you land it brings up the "respawn" interface but you can only change the loadout for your plane, or you to change the loadout it might be a certain amount of Spawn Points. Just a idea that might change how the game is played and add more diversity to the battles.

Hi Gaijin, I am wondering... does the missile know where it is? Because I think it knows where it isn't!

[@LunarTokyo19]

I managed to kill a swedish AA with the Ki-109. It wasn't the crew that ate the shell, it was the ammo loaded in the cannon that sent them back to the hangar

[@envycreat1on490]

Q: Would Gaijin ever consider adding ground battles to Enduring Confrontation simulator battles? The ground battles spawned on the large map could be smaller maps for the tanks to spawn in.

[@devilishfun]

Q: does opening the bomb bay increase drag and decrease the performance of the plane?

[@King63Kobra]

It should, but as bomb doors would be ripped off at high speeds if they did cause significant drag, it's so small and minimal that I doubt it's modelled in game

[@luisdagfinn9436]

I am pretty sure it does, the Me 264 drops a few kph if you open the bomb bay at 400kph and above (While going in a straight line) Dont know if it is modeled for other bombers though

[@anthonyberger810]

Only on the Me-264 and the Ju-288. I honestly find it funny how Gaijin only has it modeled for two of the most spammed bombers in the entire game, both of which actually use speed as a way to bolster survivability (the main defense being their 20mm turrets which have insanely large hitboxes for trailing fighters). They won’t answer this question personally as it points out a serious problem in flight model design on most aircraft.

Suggestions: make all I mean all vehicles /boats/aircraft testable so we can learn to play them before we obtain them and not be disappointed when we get them. And instead of 2 ground vehicles make them a whole assembly line and a formation of fighters/bombers/attackers so we don’t fight ground targets with fighters. Change my mind
