Ni hao, dear friends!
We’re pleased to announce a new nation making their entry into War Thunder update 1.91 - China! One of the oldest civilizations in the world, with a rich and dramatic historical background, especially during the 20th century.
The initial line-up of Chinese vehicles available in War Thunder features tanks, fighter aircraft and bombers which were used during World World II and shortly thereafter, and will show just how turbulent the history of the country’s military in the 20th century was. Players will be able to pilot aircraft employed by foreign volunteers from the Flying Tigers regiment which helped China fight against Imperial Japan, make use of captured Japanese vehicles, and command military imports from the USSR, as well as local variants of Soviet MiG jets and American Patton tanks (which formed part of China’s military).
Each vehicle in War Thunder’s initial Chinese vehicle tree was historically used by the nation of China at some point. The Henschel Hs 123A-1, for example, was imported by the Chinese Nationalist forces from Germany, and was used against the Imperial Japanese Navy during battles at the Yangtze river.
Immediately after the release of update 1.91 “Night Vision”, all players will gain access to an initial selection of Chinese ground-force vehicles and aircraft.
Players who wish to gain access to the entire Chinese tech tree as fast as possible can do so by fulfilling a series of in-game tasks in War Thunder, or by purchasing one of the Chinese pre-order packs that include a premium vehicle, in-game currency, premium account time, and cosmetic items. One of the packs will grant access to the aircraft tech tree, and the other one will open the ground vehicles tech tree.

Yes, this Chinese tech tree is a lot of copy paste. But the Chinese armed forces is and was basically copy paste in their own time. I mean for Christ sakes the Type-59, one of the most well known Chinese tanks, is basically an adapted version of the T-55. I most certainly understand that people want the game to be fixed and also sympathize to an extent, but Gaijin as a company should not take people who were hired to model and implement vehicles into the game and force them to work on bugfixing.
Not only that, but the people who read these comments are not capable of relaying or making the changes that you so wish for. I understand the forums aren't the most reliable when getting devs to respond, but there are more devs looking there than here, YouTube or any other spot. Spamming it is also very redundant and the more you do it, the less people are likely going to pay attention to you either. I sympathize with the cause, but most certainly do not endorse such a lack of understanding.
M60A3 before the US gets it? Thanks Gaijin, that's just wonderful. Thanks for the constant reminders that I made a mistake grinding out the M60A1 (RISE).
ok this is actually EPIC MY LADS
Now we just need a Hong Kong map.
Chinese Mosquito (Type 2) is an Attacker but the British ones are Fighters? Surely an easy change to reflect this back into the British TT?
Did anyone ask for this???
How about the people who keep complaining about the line be quiet and actually do something except complaining and doing nothing . You soy-boys keep complaining that the Chinese line is bland and copy and paste even though it has some unique vehicles and some premium vehicles that now people who started playing this game don't have to pay real money to get these vehicles. You people keep acting like you're entitled for something that is never going to come.
no
well if this doesnt count as an "emergency" that calls for br decompression, idk what will. cmon gaijin you can do it i believe in you. just decompress the br already
well, GRB is going to be unbearable with all the cheaters coming in to play "numbah wan china!!!!"
