American Desert, a new location for combined battles, will be released in War Thunder update 1.81. When creating this location our artists and designers were inspired by images of small towns in the US Southwest and the romantic style of the 60s. We used Page, Arizona as the inspiration for this location’s visual style. We’ve created many new assets for this location, including plant life, automobiles, and buildings that are characteristic of the location, as well as animated fire hydrants that shoot columns of water into the air if you drive over them.
The battles for this location will take place among the one- and two-story buildings typical of an American small town. There are a couple of small lakes and highways in the surrounding area. The town’s main square has four access points, as well as a few other firing locations. Another flashpoint for future battles is a residential area with small homes that are too small for even medium tanks to hide behind. Some areas can also be fired on from outside the town, where snipers can hide among rocks and small cliffs. The third capture point is a railroad station, and an animated train will drive down the tracks during battle. Tank commanders can destroy the train with gunfire, and the train itself can also ram tanks if they get in its way.
American Desert will be the first American location in War Thunder. We hope you like the simple, heartfelt style of a 1960s American small town.

Okay now, all together: GIANT BOULDERS AND TOWNS. Good, now get to making maps for War Thunder!
Another bugged map?
Who would win ? A 170 ton train going 60mph Vs A stationary 188 ton maus tank
Wait what? Last time i watched your the shooting range video and at the last part where you answered a question asked: ''would you consider alternate history type map into the game, such as Moscow, New York or London'' You answered: ''No we wouldn't, we actually try making the as authentic as possible. We don't even add any tech that didn't actually exist in metal, so no. Alternative history isn't where we'd like to go.'' Seriously are you guys even working for the same company ??

I am confused... on the most recent Shooting range you stated that you wouldn't be doing alternate history battle locations, like Moscow, New York etc. You have already been asked about that here and replied "This is based on a historical location. Its not an alternative history creation." But New York and Moscow are both real locations as well... No battles of recent wars have been fought in Moscow, New York or this place in Arizona. Are we going to see any consistent answers from you?
Looks a lot like most anywhere in the Sonora desert. Yuma test facility? We need a YUGE wall in that map.
If you are only making maps based on historical locations, I guess you don't consider London or New York or Moscow to exist then right? Because it doesnt matter if tanks fought there, only that the locations exist. But then you said you wouldnt do maps of those places so they must not exist.
All you had to do was follow the damn train CJ
Remember guy's, This is Gaijin. The same company that says "We're not going to do that" but does either ways. :D
