WAR THUNDER PRESENTS Update 1.77 “Advancing Storm”
“Advancing Storm” has brought us a new version of the Dagor engine - 5.0 and with it improved graphics, detailed landscapes and weather effects. Locations are more beautiful and realistic, the sounds are more impressive and we have added two dozen new vehicles including five tanks at the 6th rank: Т-64B, M1 Abrams, Challenger, Leopard 2K and AMX-30 Brenus.
Improved graphics and sound
We have greatly improved the graphics! The picture has become more voluminous and textured, the shadows now look more life like and on roads and tracks, after rain there are puddles and mud. Relief detailing has transformed the landscape diversifying the terrain already familiar to the eye and thanks to the new algorithm of smoothing and contact shadows; buildings, grass, foliage and other small details look even better.
Download the game to see it with your own eyes!
Be sure to listen to how cool the reworked sounds in the game are. Each shot is now collected from several sound "layers" so that the sounds of shots become more detailed.
New ground vehicles
The ground vehicles have been reinforced with some of the more iconic tanks from the 70’s and 80’s in the 20th Century : the Soviet T-64B, the American M1 Abrams, the British Challenger, the German Leopard 2K and the French AMX-30B2 Brenus. All of them are distinguished by great weapons, better armour, high speeds and mobility.
The T-64B is armed with a launcher for Cobra guided anti-tank missiles, and the AMX-30B2 Brenus is equipped with dynamic protection. The Leopard 2K is incredibly mobile, has a quick-firing cannon with an excellent stabilizer and will be able to cope with low-flying air targets thanks to a 20mm anti-aircraft gun. The legendary M1 Abrams, the ancestor of current modern US tanks, is becoming the new top of the American research tree. This machine has some of the most advanced military technologies available at the time including crew protection from ammunition fire. Often after an ammunition fire, the crew of the “Abrams” will be able to continue the battle - it’s fantastic!
By the way some of these vehicles are still in service with different nations.
New aircraft
The German He 177 Greif heavy bomber was created for our game by a player; Daniel Joy_Division__ Zaitsev, under the profit sharing program - Revenue Share. There is also the Martin M.B.5 - a great alternative for the late Spitfire in the British research tree, this will be one of the best prop fighters in the game. Additionally. a new Soviet top aircraft will be introduced with the La-200 which has two jet engines placed one after another.
In total in this update we have added 14 new and updated aircraft models.
There are many other features in update 1.77 “Advancing Storm”! Download and play it now!

We got mid 80's tank's but what about planes?, where is the f4 phantom, the mig 21 or the mirage f1?.
I believe that it would have been pertinent to inform players that the blast radius and effect of all bombs would be nerfed in 1.77 I would personally prefer the old graphics if we could keep the war mechanics that I and a large number of other players have spent a lot of time and efforts to develop our strategies upon.
after downloading the update war thunder will not start for me. may i get some help with this problem. i use a mac by the way
I'm sad, the game runs horribly for me now :/ I have a pretty shite computer but War Thunder was the one good game I could run, and I've been playing for years. Now it's unplayable for me.... The new graphical updates are great and all, but it just sucks for me, ones with arse systems. Welp, I'll go on a hiatus until I can save enough to upgrade
Soo...looks like you can now drop the internal bomb load first in the he-177, correct? This is great news
15 hours to download the update on a night with a Windows system update. Wonderful.
Did they add a new rangefinder to the Leopard A1A1, because I've had it spaded for a long time, and now I have to research it again?
They added a new APFSDS round.
man you're not the only one,i have the same issue,i also lost my rangefinder after 1.77
Last!
How do you expect people to download the update when it's this slow? Getting 7+ MB once it started now literally only need 114MB left to download but the speed has been reduced to 70-75KB like huh? I have to wait an extra 30-60 minutes HO HO EXCELLENT!
I didnt even need to download somehow, guess it just copied dev server files.
F__URY, You most likely have the gaijinagent turned on! :)
As always, Great Work, a bit disappointed about the Italian Spitfire, but I guess it's all gonna be about the better pilot in the same plane from now on
