And of course follow our news to learn all the details about the coming update.
At Gamescom 2017 we will introduce the new major update 1.71 “New E.R.A”. The name was coined for several reasons - first, we are adding a 6th rank for tanks and invite you to test the vehicles of the Cold War and Vietnam war period. Ground vehicles in War Thunder will receive new armour types - composite and Explosive Reactive Armour. This new era in tank construction marked the switch to brand new technologies in protection against powerful HEAT rounds and missiles that could easily destroy any WW2 armour. New infantry support machines will join combat - we are ready to tell you about some of them in the next few days. Stay tuned!
And don’t forget about prizes! Do you know much about your favourite game? Give at least 7 correct answers for 10 questions in our War Thunder Mastermind Quiz dedicated to update 1.71 “New E.R.A.” and receive a unique title “War Thunder Mastermind” and a RP booster!

1.71 - ground forces only. In future? Who knows?

Thank you Gaijin, thank you.

So rank 6 tanks before naval battles? I'm so glad I didn't shell out money for the beta testing. The delay kept me from also purchasing Italian bundles. I do like the new direction and I'm hopeful as long as the match making is fair. I'm looking forward to Vietnam aircraft. Thank you for your hard work.
Soo, the current tier V will be moved to tier VI and the matchmaker will finally be good again? Am i understanding that correctly guys? No? Oww. You're going to add a whole bunch of new tanks into the game, so the matchmaker will most likely be terrible at 8.0-10.0 for the upcoming half year? Great news! I suppose I'm just going to stick to the more balanced mid tiers then...
