The abandoned frozen waters of Franz Josef Land welcome our captains! Meet the first location with destructible fortifications!
"Franz Josef Land"
The new location for naval battles called “Franz Josef Land” will become one of the northernmost locations in War Thunder. Here, players will witness the harsh lifeless expanses of plateau-like islands covered with basalt and permafrost glaciers. But even these uninhabitable islands have been mastered by man. Here you can find two polar stations, military bases, as well as a few abandoned villages.
In the Dominance mode for this location, we plan to add fortifications with a different set of weapons that provide fire support for bases. Destruction of such fortifications will grant players additional points. We want to make naval battles more varied and dynamic, and we're interested in your opinion of the new gameplay option. We look forward to your feedback as soon as the update is released!

Comments will be premoderatedI love that you guys are adding something new and engaging to naval! Awesome, I'm sure a good bunch of people will jump on to check it out.
Thanks for thinking about the Naval crowd! o7
So no French IFV's or boats? Aight, imma stay because this kinda good tbh.
New naval map? YES. Sign me the hell up.
oh yay more naval devblogs come on show us more tanks or planes
need more things for naval but however its a start,maybe next things to see navy choppers ?
I hope there could be more fortification variants, like Soviet ones and British ones.
I rarelly play naval, because i got bored after few matches. Its nice there will be new mechanic, but its not enough. I would love to see some kind of AI landing crafts escorting and then ability to play in a ground vehicle and lets say capture the airfield on the island you escorted the AI. Number of spawns would be counted by the AI making it to the island.
adicional mechanic is always welcome.
OMG, AI is getting Scharnhorst guns before I do KEKW. I think this kind of maps, which shares features with naval EC maps are an advance in the right direction, imo naval needs more maps similar to those of naval EC. I'm excited to fight in this map
