Excellent news for fans of German aviation:
one of War Thunder’s old timers, the He 111H-6 bomber is receiving an updated model!
In addition, we’ve fixed a range of bugs that were present in the old model.
The German Heinkel He 111H-6 bomber is a true old timer in War Thunder – this aircraft was among the first to arrive in our game. As you already know from our Developer Diaries, work on upgrading old vehicle models takes an important place in the list of our artists’ and modelers’ responsibilities. In update 1.61 Road to Glory, the German bomber will receive an updated model and texture, which includes the removal of various drawbacks in the old model.

The current in-game model of the He 111H-6 is noticeably outdated and no longer meets the quality standards that we set for vehicle models in the game. The new model of this regular of aerial battles in ranks II-III now has far more polygons and the new texture has a 4K resolution and has become far more detailed than the previous model.
Alongside this model update, we have fixed a range of flaws present in the old version of the bomber. Firstly, the machine gun in the lower frontal mount point (the ‘bathtub’ under the fuselage) has finally appeared. Another machine gun has been added in the tail – it’s barely noticeable on the model, with only a few centimeters of barrel visible. In reality, it was absolutely immobile and served as a kind of scarecrow – the aircraft pilot has the ability to fire a volley from this machine gun from time to time which was intended to frighten off any fighters tailing the Heinkel. In War Thunder, this function will be implemented, but the machine gun will have a minimal field of fire on the vertical and horizontal planes, so that the player can have at least a small chance of shooting down chasing aircraft when firing this machine gun.

We’ve also fixed a bug in the geometry of the fuselage around the bomb hatch – in the new model, this area is implemented in accordance with technical documentation on the bomber. Another useful improvement: the bubble window on the upper turret will move to combat position, meaning the field of fire of this turret will be significantly improved.

The artists of this game are absolutely amazing at what they do. I've noticed that when using the He 111's 32x50kg loadout that the bomb bay has each 2 bombs inside each other in one slot in order to fit all 32. Will this be fixed as well?
Still no cockpit ? Really ? I would have thought that a model update would include such a thing, I guess not
Don't understand it either. I have started to give up hope to ever see those bomber cockpits added.
Wow it looks so nice
It's always good to get new and updated bomber models to shoot down. Fw 190 A/D remodel when?
Give cockpit already!
WAOW.... it's beautiful... :'(
Now this thing looks absolutely lovely. I often look at the He 111s, especially the propeller blades, and think "Something is off about those blades. They look too small and thin in comparison to the rest of the aircraft.". And two additional machine guns being added? Better rear coverage? This thing may just survive a bit longer if you ask me.
Beautiful! I've waited 3-4 major updates for a remodel of my favorite WWII German bomber! It's so much better, as you can tell that the old He-111's side windows didn't even have a view of the inside - only a glare.
Will the H-3 and H-16's Flight models be redone as well?
Will all the He(s) be receiving an update or simply this model? I love the He and would like to see all models in there full glory!
