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

*Q 1:* When will you animate the wheels of aircrafts? the front wheel and tail wheel when taxing on ground, traversing left/right. *Q 2:* When can you implement hull MGs, and while you're at it implement headlights too cus why not... the IR spot light is more or less useless but still a cool function. *Suggestion 1:* I've been having fun with Naval but its drawbacks are the MM and Aiming system, pls simplify the aim-parrallel shooting and elevation is difficult to account for and can nvr be mastered anytime soon. As for MM - BBs fights other BBs, cruisers fight other cruisers, DDs fight other DDs & lastly boats fight other boats. *Suggestion 2: Make module research minimum! please. I'm complacent with high research of vehicles themselves but reduce the module grinding pls!.*

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.

Jumbo wins test. My experience of the Jumbo: its armor stops few things in actual game, and the gun have trouble penetrating other heavies, even some mediums. But that might just be me being bad.

[@jl-1099]

That and it has an unfavourable BR, the thing faces bloody German M48s

[@KamiRecca]

@DestroyerTom oh well, makes sense. I make no secrets about being bad. But serious question then, how do you protect the weakspot of the MG port? because that thing attracts shells from up to 4km away with homing accuracy for me. and how do you handle tanks you cant deal with the gun (Basicly all heavy and some mediums in my experience, as stated above). And please dont just say "Aim at weakspots" because realy, that doesnt seem to work for me. But again, let me just underline this: I Am Bad. No way around that...

The flaps break after you reach a certain speed, but airbreaks don't. Than how is it with the SBD-3s? Their airbreaks are their literal flaps too, just opened at a different way.

Q:What is the best way to play the P47D-22-RE Thunderbolt in the American tech tree?

[@revolver265]

Thunderbolts can breathe at high altitude, so if you patiently wait (via sideclimbing) you can boom-and-zoom on unwitting enemies, though the way stuff spawns in, you'll be sipping your beverage of choice for five minutes and might even miss the whole battle. Head-ons are risky because most enemies at 4.0 have some good cannons, so know your enemy. In Ground, the thing is ultimate CAS. There's a reason the A-10 Thunderbolt 2 shares its name. I don't play ground, so I can only advise generally that you'll get a lot done if your team has air superiority. If your P-47 gets torn up because air superiority fighters are in the sky, you should be able to land safely if you don't suffer a fuel fire or pilot knock. The thing's a tank with a paddle prop attached.
