War Thunder background
Update 2.37.0.72

Aircraft

  • A bug that caused the camera in “Optical seeker view” to not be pointed towards an active target in Simulator Battles has been fixed. (Report).
  • A bug where activating mouse look caused the helmet-mounted sight to not work when in third-person view has been fixed. (Report).

Ground Vehicles

  • A bug that caused the control of ground vehicles to be partially blocked after an air streak, for example the turret was unable to rotate, and menus would not open if the weapon selector was active at the time of the aircraft’s destruction has been fixed. (Report).
  • A bug that caused barrel smoke (such as the IS-2 (1944)) not deploying smoke properly after being dropped has been fixed. (Report).
