41s Hello, friends! The summer heat is slowly fading away, but War Thunder is ready to warm you back up with
47s the first fall update this year: the Sons of Attila.
51s It brings improved visual effects, unique mechanics, and, of course, numerous long-awaited
56s vehicles for various nations.
58s But there’s one thing we’d like to say before we begin...
61s Please welcome a new nation: Hungary!
65s Their armored vehicles will fit into the Italian tech tree to reinforce your line-ups across
70s all BR ranges from the very lowest to high tiers.
75s We’ve been working hard to improve the realism of War Thunder, and this time around we’d
79s like to introduce a few new mechanics.
82s External ammo on armored vehicles like smoke grenades and suspended armament on aircraft
87s is now entirely destructible.
89s Depending on the impact force, a hit will lead to various results: destruction of the
94s impacted ammo with no explosion, a fire, or detonation.
99s And that’s not all: you can now destroy decorations and bushes mounted on vehicles.
106s For top-tier aircraft enthusiasts, we’ve prepared new voice warning systems in various
111s languages.
112s Soviet and Russian crews often refer to it as ‘Rita’, while ‘Betty’ is the popular
117s American nickname.
119s A female voice will now warn a pilot about G overloads, critical angles of attack, an
124s imminent ground collision, low fuel, and many other important factors.
129s We hope this will improve your immersion in air battles.
133s The visual aspect of the game has been refined, too.
136s We added new effects for exhaust fumes on gun barrels, fuel leaking from damaged tanks
141s can now burn, and trees now have more realistic foliage.
146s The graphics overall have also been improved thanks to dynamic visual effects that change
150s based on the lighting conditions.
154s This time, the parade of new vehicles will begin with the most unique Hungarian newcomers!
159s And the first is the Csaba light armored car.
162s A powerful engine can propel this six-ton machine to 65 km/h both forward and in reverse,
169s while its semi-automatic 20-mm anti-tank rifle can destroy targets with APHE rounds.
176s The top of the Hungarian branch can now boast the KF41 Lynx IFV.
183s This vehicle is armed with a two-plane stabilized 30-mm autocannon with APFSDS rounds as well
190s as a dual ATGM launcher that utilizes the ‘fire and forget’ Spike missiles.
197s American and Israeli skies are now protected by Improved Chaparral air defense systems.
203s They’re armed with SAMs based on the Sidewinder missiles.
207s Four of those are ready to go, and eight more are waiting for their turn inside the hull.
212s Another hot, and dare we say it, smoking hot vehicle is the Soviet flame tank based on the T-55.
221s It has a flamethrower on the right side of the turret, and the ammo rack next to the
225s driver has been replaced with a tank for the incendiary mixture.
229s And don’t worry, it still comes equipped with the standard 100-mm cannon, so the firepower
234s has only been improved!
236s We have something new for the pilots, too.
239s The legendary Mi-8 helicopters have arrived to War Thunder!
243s Two powerful turboshaft engines allow it to carry a large payload, consisting of guided
248s missiles, conventional and napalm bombs, as well as a record number of rockets for a helicopter: 192!
257s Another rotorcraft has been added to the US and Chinese tech trees.
262s The Bell OH-58D Kiowa Warrior is a strike version of the light multirole helicopter.
269s It features a guidance system conveniently placed above the main rotor hub, and it’s
274s armed with rockets and laser-guided missiles for ground targets, while a set of Stinger
278s missiles protect it against enemy air.
281s And finally, here are the new top-tier jets!
286s The US Air Force has received a new F-16, modification C. It has a helmet-mounted display,
292s a more powerful engine, a modern radar, and an impressive choice of suspended armament
298s including laser-guided munitions.
301s On the other side of the planet, we have the MiG-29SMT.
306s This new vehicle has a larger fuel capacity, an advanced radar, and cutting-edge weaponry.
312s The latter includes the R-73 and R-27ET air-to-air missiles as well as air-to-surface TV-guided ordnance.
322s The top ranks of Italian aircraft have been reinforced by the AV-8B PLUS Harrier attack aircraft.
329s Its arsenal includes conventional bombs and rockets and, of course, guided air-to-air
334s and air-to-surface munitions.
338s As always, this is not an exhaustive list of everything we’re adding with this update.
344s War Thunder will now have Rank 6 for Naval forces, and some existing top battleships
349s and cruisers will move there.
350s We’re also adding numerous other vehicles, like a new top Leopard, the 2S1 Gvozdika SPG,
358s and the Israeli two-seater F-16.
