WAR THUNDER PRESENTS
Update 1.75 «La Résistance!»
French Ground forces
French ground vehicles have been added in this update and we begin the closed test of these unusual machines. You can get access to the test by completing several easy in-game tasks or by purchasing early access packs and be the first to test French armour!
- B1ter tank (Rank 2 France);
- Premium account for 7 days;
- 1000 Golden Eagles;
- French tanks closed beta access.
- M4A1 FL10 tank (Rank 3 France);

Aircraft
This time War Thunder has also introduced more than a dozen new aircraft such as the Soviet Yak-2, the Yak-4 or the French MS.406C1, as well as the post war F3D1 Skyknight naval fighter or the top-rank Japanese F-86F-40 jet.
New Locations
A new location for combined battles known as "Maginot Line" has also been added in this update - A famous French defense line full of bunkers and fortifications.
The other map "Middle East" will be familiar to our players - it was already introduced during the april’s fool event this year, it has been reworked and optimized and now our players will have an opportunity to battle among the city ruins and an oil factory situated in the hot sands of the Middle East.

Other improvements
Interface
Automatic camo choice option has been added. The camo will be chosen depending on the location (urban, desert, winter etc.) If the vehicle dosen't have suitable camo then standard camouflage will be chosen.
Game mechanics
New opportunities for light vehicles
- "Active scouting". In order to scout the environment in Arcade mode just select a target and push the “Scout” button (may be bound in the settings). After that an enemy marker will become visible for all your teammates for 30 seconds. In Realistic mode you will have to use binoculars or sight (sniper) view. Once in this view put your crosshairs on an enemy vehicle and press the “Scout” button. After that a marker will appear over the enemy vehicle and will be updated for 30 seconds.
- If you are playing a heavy tank for example - select the “Repairing!” short message - any allies who are driving light vehicles may assist you even if they are not members of your squad.
Additional modifications for light vehicles II-VI rank:
- Airstrike - in Arcade this will permit the scout to join any air battle started by your teammates. This will not be limited to a fighter - you will be able to use an attacker or a bomber even though your team has already begun the battle. Your opponent will have an opportunity to add an additional fighter though. In Realistic mode this modification will additionally reduce SP requirements to use aircraft in combined battles
- Improved optical sights will increase the spotting distance by 30% in all modes.
Of course, there is much more - download the update and check it out!

Gaijin what happened to the 442mm of penetration on the AMX-30b? It is now 342mm i thought we were getting a devastating round in return for no stabilization on the vehicle. This round was one of my primary reasons for grinding french ground forces. As i am a fan for the high pen APFSDS this was only logical decision. Are there any plans to buff the APFSDS round on the AMX-30b at all in the future?
French are great! Only BIG concern is that soon there wont be any Germany players left.. Please Gaijin make it all nations randomly paired and fighting each others.. Germany vs allied forces is just impossibru.. Sim battles is another story, tanks on same era and right numbers fighting works out nice. 40's tanks vs late 50's tanks just kills the game. Please Gaijin..
Nice job on the new aircraft. I see that some are from 1972, makes me think now, is it time to introduce the Vulcan Bomber? Less speed than the Vautour thats in game, and the Vulcan has no offensive/Defensive guns. Think it would make gaijin millions, and would make the game greater.
The bomb load could be nerfed, and it was developed in 1959 along with its English Fighter counter part, the English electric lighting, which is also an awesome plane. Things to think about Gaijin. But well done on the update.
Yak-2 KABB is just a I-29 with fewer guns and more glass.
Okay so I was wondering if you guys are ever going to change the rocket mechanics again because now the US and British Rockets are basically unusable.
France has planes and tanks, Italy has tanks (technically), ships are coming soon, and new vehicles are added constantly. What's the next step or addition?
Not sure this is the place to post this, but I have not been given the status of tester after the 1.75 update. I preordered the B1 ter bundle, and it said on the "Become a Tester" post that this would allow me to research all of the French tanks with no restrictions. When I go to the French ground force tech tree, everything except the lowest tier tanks are locked.
Hello, how do i play "La Resistance" from War Thunder app on Mac ? I don't see it in Tank Battle menu. Thx
Cant penetrate crap with the French guns. Tanks maneuver as if they weighed 100 tons. And die to everything except other French tank. Wonderful. The French deserved to be overrun. Haven't had a single winning match in 5 straight hours.
You guys changed the Ho-103 belts to make them WORSE than than before! You even ignored the historical data and evidence posted by the community about the japanese belts, and proceeded to just invent your own? Why?! It should have been a slight BUFF to the belts, but instead you've severely NERFED them. What gives?! Do you really hate Japan that much, or was this an oversight? Please respond.
Please compare what was suggested (via historical docs) in your own SOURCE link for the Ho-103 changes. The belts are nowhere near what they should have been changed to. Please fix this.
