Picture oversaturation with HDR enabled has been fixed.

Meet War Thunder’s first major update of 2024! We’ve added several interesting ground vehicles, some of which include five rank VII premiums, the formidable Fox light-tank, to the interesting looking 120S and Zerstörer 45. Hungarian aircraft have now made their way into Italy’s tree, where you’ll be able fly a range of fully-capable aircraft in air and ground battles. The nimble Alpha jet has arrived for Germany and France, plus the warmly welcomed Wessex for Britain. Additionally, IJN Mutsu — featuring the largest guns in the game — is now ready to sail for Japan. North Holland is a new ground forces map, featuring a town and plain terrain, perfect for different combat engagements. And lastly, you can also enjoy several Roadmap additions, one of which is an aircraft fuel slider!

Information about the lack of tracers in an aircraft belt has been added to the tooltip in the modification window.

A bug that caused the client to crash on Ubuntu 20.04 when running via Steam has been fixed.

The Battlepass challenge “Thunder from Heaven” that required the use of stealth belts now requires belts that have no tracers.

The Severe Damage mechanic carried over from the previous Roadmap has now been added to all gamemodes for aircraft.

In Air Simulator Battles, mission points will no longer be awarded for attacking an enemy aircraft on an airfield that had not earned any mission points since their respawn. This is to prevent players who match-fix from easily earning mission points in this mode. More details about this here.

A bug that caused a boat’s foam and wake trail to become more distinct after firing the guns has been fixed.

In Ground Realistic Battles, active scouting of a recently destroyed enemy (less than 1 second ago) is no longer considered a miss and blocks the reuse of scouting for 6 seconds, which is the same time for a successful scout, rather than for 45 seconds.

The detachment of an aircraft wing when the allowable load is exceeded is no longer counted as a destruction, the same as with the tearing off of flaps or landing gear.

Numerous bug fixes

T-90M — a bug that led to the disappearance of ammunition in the hull when ammunition in the turret burned out has been fixed.
