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.

watch they wont add most of these vehicles to their original tech tree
awesome
I declare FAIL.
Why aint we seeing the nordic countries like sweden? Sweden has tons of unique swedish porduced veichles and not like china that is already in game veichles
Back in the day people would meme about MiG-21s and China in WT, and yet now it's reality, hilarious.
I was hoping they would add a technology tree with mixed vehicles for less significant nations, such as an Axis-related tree could have vehicles from Romania, Finland, France, Hungary, Yugoslavia or a technology tree for Allied countries that would have vehicles from such countries as: Canada, Australia, Poland, Czechoslovakia. Of course, for a shrinking player community, they added a Chinese copy/paste tree... just great...
Great! A tech tree of everything already in the game, lets just mix all the nations together! I was hoping there would be no new nations added, half of the french tech tree isn't even french!
The Chinese fighter production sequence does not exist J-1 to J-4 at all. This is confirmed by experts. The previous fighters are all used according to the original model name of the import.
I Dont understand the complains, 1) fix the game, sure, but this didnt take them any time (lol) it was already made so why not add it? 2) yeah many are copy paste, but first you dont have to grind it if you have it already, and 2 is free 3) A new guy with only 1 tech tree will may appreciate a russian-usa mix 4) it will be more interesting later when there is much more national vehicles 1980+ Only thing i not like is overpriced package for stuff we have already, and split access?????
Wow, Copy and Paste nation...
