I havent flown any zeros in game, but I always thought of them as super fragile?

They can turn really well, probably the best in the game for a prop fighter, which makes them great fun to use

Hi, yes this is a bug that is reported internally. We'll look into it. Thank you!

01 May



Dupleix was the fourth Suffren-class heavy cruiser in service with the French Navy. It was laid down in the fall of 1929 and put into service on May 1st 1932. At the beginning of World War II, Dupleix served near Dakar, hunting German ships and in June 1940 took part in the attack on Genoa and Vado Ligure. In November 1942, Dupleix was scuttled to avoid capture by the Germans.

Dupleix is available for Golden Eagles and is here to stay! This heavy cruiser is available for 6,090 Golden Eagles.



When: From May 1st (11:00 GMT).
Where: France > Bluewater fleet > Premium vehicles.

I highly recommend to always use your binoculars (default key on PC: "B"), these give you a zoomed in view while in your tank, using it often will make it become second nature and will greatly help spotting enemies.

I've been trying the binoculars. Its helped but rarely do I know *where* to look. Its like being given a h...

We've worked on new c*ckpits for several aircraft, for example last year we did brand-new Spitfire c*ckpits: https://warthunder.com/en/news/8486-development-spitfire-c*ckpits-get-a-makeover-en In the current major update we also added fully-detailed AH-64 c*ckpits.

Fully-detailed c*ckpits take time a lot of time to do. We've said that bomber c*ckpits require 2-5 times more work than creating a new plane with just a single-seated c*ckpit. As of now I don't believe there's plans to implement updated bomber c*ckpits, at least for the majority of them.

Since you are here, I'm curious if there are any plans to make the bonus for researching all the modifications in one tier for tanks to go for helis when you have that option enabled

Because as I said, I have all the t...

The game has different HD textures that can be downloaded. It's likely on your PC you have the best ones selected.

You can turn it off by doing what Corinarh said, or launch the game launcher through Steam and selecting from the client dropdown Minimal or Full Client.

Why is it that destroying 1 tube out of 6 destroys all 6

I have reported this one, will see if it can be looked into.

The last time was in 2014 and it was an old site post. We typically don't do Veterans Day or Remembrance Day events and that's the same with Anzac Day as well. Perhaps in time for next year I can discuss and see if we can do a small event or at least a recognition post for them.
