War Thunder background
Update 02.12.2020 (2.1.0.85)
  • A bug which would occur when a destroyed, turretless ground vehicle was fired upon, whereby the shell would disappear in the area the turret used to be despite nothing being there, has been fixed.
  • A bug where smokescreens would not hide the markers of other vehicles during ground battles has been fixed.
  • Browning-Colt Mk12 Mod 0 / Mod 3 — All types of belts now have the tracer round as the first munition.
  • Vickers P — The rate at which the cannon overheats, and the spread of the ammunition, have been reduced.
