War Thunder proudly presents
Update 1.59 "Flaming Arrows"
Dear Players!
The wait is finally over, Update 1.59 'Flaming Arrows' is released! More than twenty new vehicles including the first ATGM-equipped tanks, new locations and missions and plenty of improvements are just waiting for you to try out. Below, we've prepared a short selection of items that are available now, but be sure to try out all of the new additions yourself in game!
Ground Vehicles
The Heroes of 'Flaming Arrows' are the brand-new ground vehicles equipped with ATGMs:
IТ-1 USSR | RJpz-2 Germany | M551 "Sheridan" USA | Strv 81 Great Britain |
Besides those, even more ground vehicles for all tank nations of War Thunder have arrived! The USA receive a new tank in three categories, namely the experimental T29 Heavy Tank, the medium M48A1 Patton and the light amphibious LVT(A)-1 as a reserve. The Soviet Union boasts two new turretless SPGs with the ASU-57 and ASU-85 and receives a powerful modification of the KV-2 with the 105mm ZiS-6 cannon.
German tankers will be more than pleased with their latest modification to the open-topped SPG line, the Sturer Emil, as well as the early Pz.Kpfw. III Ausf. B as an new reserve. Furthermore, they have seized valuable war assets in the KV-2 754(r) as well as the T-34 747(r). And last but not least, the British ground forces tree finally also gets a vehicle with unguided rockets, the Cromwell Mk. V RP3!
Aircraft
Update 1.59 sees the first Turboprop machine as well as Community-created aircraft added to the game!
Wyvern S.4 Great Britain | He-219-A7 Germany | N1K1-Jа Japan |
And of course, there's plenty of new machines for our Pilots as well! Here, Japan receives two new fighter aircraft with the N1K1-Ja and Ki-61-II, while the Soviet Air Force enjoys two new top vehicles in its tree, the Yak-30D jet fighter and heavy Tu-4 bomber, an ingenieus copy of the American B-29. Speaking of which, besides an updated model for the B-29, a much younger brother arrives - the beloved and long sought after B-18 Bolo!
The Royal Air Force now has access to the very first turboprop aircraft in War Thunder, the extraordinary Wyvern S.4 and also receives a new bomber that is sure to be warmely welcomed by British aviators, the Halifax Mk. IIIa. On the other side of the channel, German pilots will also enjoy a truly new addition to the game, with the first Community-created aircraft being introduced - the He 219 night fighter. At the same time, an early marvel of German engineering is now available with the Hs 123 biplane and jet pilots can look forward to the rare modification of the Volksjäger, the He 162-A1!
Locations & Missions
Join the fight for the Caucasus and prepare yourself for a renewed Battle of Britain on 128x128 kilometers!
Combined Arms Location: Port of Novorossiysk |
Aircraft Mission: [Operation] Boulogne-sur-Mer |
Aircraft Location: British Coast, France & the English Channel |
The war has reached the Caucasus region in the south of the Soviet Union and challenges Pilots and Tankers to fight for the Port of Novorossiysk, a new combined arms location in War Thunder. For our Pilots, we have greatly expanded the size of the Battle of Britain map to a staggering 128 x 128 kilometers, which now includes a large portion of the Western coast of France and the English Channel - all new missions and operations included!
New Hangars
Admire your impressive arsenal of vehicles in all-new hangars for both air and ground vehicles!

Why did you guys add the Tu-4 again? Oh wait... Because you guys are biased to Russian bombers! and dont give a flying fuck if the the Tu-4 is biased or not,the first Tu-4 i ever encouter, it pilot snipes me from 1.4Km away while i was above him, second one i encounter it takes my wing off before i even had a chance to shoot it with my Do-335A-1 which has a 26K goddam repair cost that i dont know why but i have a lion problem now, TY alot Gaijin Entertainment , yours sincerely duuude123.
So I've updated to 1.59 and I have all the new planes and tanks, but I don't have the hangars. I've tried everything to try and get it, but nothing has worked. If anyone knows how to fix it please tell me.
if you have graphic setting minimum or you enabled old video card support the new hanger wont show up. try to get your setting to med or high or disable old video card support.
Hi Gaijin, I like the 1.59 update. But I found some issues: the ailerons of the b-29 go the wrong way with turning ; when the flaps 'snap off' , they don't snap of on your screen. Nonetheless, keep on being active :]
I hate this new update, you guys added the T-29 at a 6.7 br while the t-32 is still stuck at 7.3 and gets destroyed by the new missile tanks. And just because the t-32 has good armor that doesn't mean that you should send it to the land of tanks that all have HEATFS that can pen anywhere on it. Yah this new update made it even worse for playing tanks like the t-32, so thnx gaijin!
