An exotic addition for War Thunder representative of Hungarian armoured vehicles, the 38.M Toldi IIA light tank will be one of the prizes in the upcoming new Battle Pass season.

This is a good entry-level tank that differs from its Swedish predecessor with a different power plant, a larger calibre cannon and enhanced protection in the front projection. The tank very effectively destroys opponents of rank I and even rank II. The Hungarian is heavier than Stridsvagn m / 38, so it is inferior in mobility and maximum speed, but only slightly. The huge advantage of the 38.M Toldi IIA lies in its premium status, which makes it the low-tier favourite in the Italian research tree and the best choice for quick research of the early Italian armoured vehicles.

We continue our journals with more details about released improvements and fixes.

This time we focus on fixing weapons and vehicle characteristics based on your bug reports. A full list of fixes can be found in the changelog section.

Work on angles
Can you guess what aircraft’s defensive turret this is?


Back in the last “It’s fixed!” digest we told you about the rather significant changes to the firing angles of the defensive turrets for some aircraft. This alignment with historical data is just as important as the flight characteristics of the vehicles so it’s worth your attention as well.

This time we made a few more adjustments both upward and downw... Read more

A legend of the Soviet Black Sea Fleet, the ship that entered the battle during the very first days of the German invasion - Voroshilov light cruiser!

In our game, the Voroshilov light cruiser will become a reward for participants of the new season of War Thunder Battle Pass. The new ship is in many ways similar to the lead ship of the series - the cruiser Kirov, which is already quite familiar to commanders of War Thunder's bluewater fleet. The main guns of the cruiser are 9 180mm guns in three turrets. In addition to HE and AP shells, commanders will be able to research semi-armour-piercing shells that are very useful for effectively fighting other light cruisers, as well as shells with a remote fuse. The main battery guns are supplemented by 6 100mm universal guns, that won’t leave the cruiser defenseles... Read more

A premium piston fighter with a large-calibre cannon always comes in handy, especially in the French tech tree!

The French premium Airacobra P-39Q-25 will be one of the prizes in the new season of War Thunder Battle Pass. It differs from other Cobras in the game with a new four-bladed propeller and the ability to suspend a 500 lb bomb on a pylon under the fuselage. In terms of flight characteristics, the aircraft is almost completely similar to the American P-39Q-5 - a fast and maneuverable fighter that feels best at low and medium altitudes and is equally good at both boom and zoom and intense dogfighting.

Before every major update we release devblogs where you can learn in detail about new locations, vehicles, complex game mechanics and features that you will be able to try out in the game.

But you have often asked us to tell you in detail about work on improvements of already existing game mechanics and bug fixes as well as what’s new. So because of this we are starting a new section in which we will talk weekly about such improvements and fixes in the released updates so that you will clearly notice and like them in the game.
