We keep on working on improvements and fixes for War Thunder, and in this digest we’d like to tell you about the most prominent recent changes to the game. You can find information about all updates that have been released in War Thunder in the special section of our website.

The full picture!

It is hard to know in advance what gear and what monitor resolution a player will use. Some prefer the widest screens available, others use three monitor rigs. In such cases, some of the War Thunder vehicles might not fit in the screen while observing in the hangar.

We moved the camera in the hangar a bit farther away to make sure you have the full view of your steel machines of war no matter how wide your display setup is!

Drag chute fixed

Many jet aircraft in the game have a drag chute that automatically deploys on landing and helps to decelerate the aircraft while braking. But, due to a bug, they didn’t work automatically for all the time! You had to enable it manually or pray for a soft landing. The bug is found and buzzed, drag chutes should work automatically now.

“Stingers” under cover

Some SPAAG vehicles, armed with the FIM-92 Stinger air defence system, such as Machbet or Ozelot, were spoiling for a fight so much that they fired the missile with the launcher tube attached. We do appreciate such zeal, but “Stingers'' would perform better alone.

Launchers are now fixed and welded to the hull, missiles may do their job confidently.
