Vietnam Location (air)
We are pleased to present you with a new location for aircraft battles: “Vietnam”, which will be available for all players with the release of the next War Thunder major update 1.81 The Valkyries.
This location is based on the area in which the major "Nguyen Hue" military operation occurred during the Vietnam War.

I love the smell of napalm in the morning...

All answers (1)Smin1080p, I think you just spilled the beans on something big there, Smin
Actually some riverine boat action in those rivers would be good! Apoc now!
All answers (2)Clockworkreaper, But those rivers aren't symmetrical, it's obviously not a naval gameplay map.

With a map this big does that mean super sonic jets confirmed? I sure hope so!
nope
OGy43, they did say in the last map post that they sometimes lie to make the reveal better, so it's possible now... but with a Vietnam map double the size of Korea, there's no way were not getting at least one new Vietnam era plane... unless this map is supposed to operation Masterdom (British and France Vs Vietnam in 1945-1947)
They don't detail it's size though... And just by sheer observation, it seems like it's gonna be about as big as Korea?
All answers (9)Dms110, Korea is 65km x 65km and this map is 128x128 km so so almost double
this would look like a nice tankmap
Exactly... Why is this an air map and Murican Desert is a tank map? This makes no sense... I think atleast 90% had hoped that vietnam would come as a tank map
All answers (2)LilRickie, Why do you think they're only going to make a single Vietnam map and only for air? To not make a ground map for Vietnam would be insanity...
C'mon guys, every patch there is a new tankmap. Stop complaining, people here complain so much.
Lt_Lugui, The entire community complains all the time its a nonstop thing it is super annoying they can't accept the fact that gaijin is working really hard on making new vehicles and maps but also bug fixing etc.
IT AINT ME
