No direct ETA yet but most likely not before the next major update. There is quite a lot of news (Dev blogs and more) and other things happening over the next week or so.

Once again, we don't do multiple blogs a day because some people dont agree with your personal point of view. It's the same thing every update.

"Omg a naval Dev blog who asked for this"

"Omg more modern vehicles who asked for this"

"Omg WW2 vehicles who asked for this"

"Omg [insert literally anything here] who asked for this"

Tankers have to wait just like pilots have to wait and just like naval captains have to wait for their blogs. What doesn't Interest you today could be someone else's felling when we have a tank blog or something else.

Blog schedules depend on what's ready to be shown. No appeasing those that can't wait a few days or don't play / have an interest in a particular area of the game.

Thank you for your report. This issue is currently known, but your files have been added to the existing report.

All missiles in War Thunder have limited all aspect capabilities below 1km if the target is afterburning and has a significant heat signature. This is not exclusive to SRAAM.

Hello

SRAAM is a thrust vectoring missile. Immediately after launch, the missile takes up an intercept course in whatever direction the target is flying at and directly predicts where it will go.

In this case, at only 0.54km away from the launch, you are well within both the range and envelop of the missile, ultimately killed by its proximity fuse.

As such, this is working as intended.

With all due respect, CMs are not exactly sitting around with time to write out riddles for every blog

There will be more news of whats to come soon.

Guys, I think I should make it clear. We are literally just at the first dev blog.

This is not going to be a massive update as we just came hot of the heels of New Power. Are there some cool things coming? For sure. But you should not be expecting massive developments like the last patch or other traditionally larger patches.

To all these questions of "Smin is XYZ confirmed?!?" or "Stona pls gib ABC!!" please just have some patience for now.

We cannot answer direct specifics on everything and more news about the coming update and what else is happening over the holidays will be coming out over the coming week.

Again, that BR isnt final. Its simply to inform those worried it was considered for 9.0 as some were speculating. Where it ultimately ends up depends on how it performs.

Huge difference between adding content people want and expanding BR ranges when we have explained time and time again why thats not possible to do every time people want it to be done.

What the community want is gauged in a plethora of ways, but you pretty much explained it yourself. Satisfied people typically don't come to the forum, make an account and say "Wow, good job Gaijin, thanks for this". They just simply play the game and enjoy it. So the less than 1% of the playerbase thats on the forum dont necessarily reflect the views of the community or the playerbase as a whole.

French Crusader?

I think you need a fancy dress store:

I think they have some in the Berlin zoo?

But if they have leaked out, you should probably be alerting local authorities and not me.

Yes.

We are not power leaping into a new era and the A-7D offers no real major "advantage" over what the Phantom can already do as CAS aircraft. Simply that we are fulfilling what we said we would do to continue working on expanding Rank VI.

Already have several times now.

Im not sure if some people missed it, or just dont want to accept it.

Not with this patch.

You also missed the point where for every 1 of these jets for other nations, there are likely 5 other examples for the US we must add.

Nobody said those aircraft wont come in time, but in the meantime, the US also have aircraft that exist that need to be added.

Neither of those for now.

Britain has had the most attention after USA, USSR and Germany this year which entirely reflects how much the nation has played. As I said before in most cases its actually had even more than Germany this year.

Regardless of whatever point is trying to be made, your personal wishlist is not the subject matter of this topic.

Not for the time being. Thats for sure.

That would be correct if there was also not a plethora of US, German and Soviet content we could also still add for the WW2 era if we wanted to also fully explore them. That argument doesn't just work for Britain.

The point is the community wanted and continue to want more focus on the later areas of the game. WW2 content was the primary focus of the game for 4-5 years.

Whilst we have not stopped adding content from that area, you also should not expect to see a huge amount of diversion of resources to an area the playerbase as a whole dont want the focus of development to be on.

As I have already explained, we cant progress further into higher ranks where many of the things you and others want to see without first getting through the bulk of Rank VI. Which is an area which the US simply has more than anyone else.

Again, perhaps redirect your frustration to history rather than us. The US simply has more examples than anyone else to add.

Unfortunately this game is about 9 nations and not just Britain. So yes, if we stopped all development on literally everything else, then we probably could increase the size of the British tree drastically.

But that is not what every player in this game wants.
