The aircraft was physically incable of carrying them as far as I remember. So yes it does matter if it doesn't have the equipment to use them.

It's not planned in this update.

I'm currently away for a few days.

The range of mode information was confirmed and provided by the developers. It should have both a 32 and 64 mode.

If it's indeed a bug that it's not working as it should or is displayed internally, I will check the report status when I'm back next week.

EJ Kai never had any as far as I remember. There were a couple of mockup bombs hung on for an arm's expo. But it was reported to remove them at the time as far as I remember there is nothing solid on the aircraft ever receiving them. But as always, if you have new information, feel free to submit a new report.

But politics have no place in the discussion of the AJ.

Political background has no place in game. This has no relivance to the game or any addions too it.

Please stop discussing political matters on the forum. As per the rules, political discussions are not permitted.

It's not a major rule change or anything. The reasoning behind the F-16AJ was explained in the blogs. It's an exceptional circumstance that provides a balanced option currently. The Yak-141 also already has other Aircraft like that in game (trialed / tested / planned weponary or features).

Guys, its possible to discuss things without getting into accusations, insults and personal matters.

Please keep it respectful and civil per the forum rules:

Dear players!

As you know, over a year ago we launched our dedicated Community Bug Reporting platform and transitioned bug reports that were less suited to the forum. We wanted to let you know in advance that the next stage of that transition will begin in 2 weeks time as we transition historical reports off the forum to move all issue reports to the Community Bug Site. During this time, we recommend you familiarize yourself with the site and if you have any questions or require support, please free free to PM myself or any Technical Moderator!

From the 17th March, the historical report section on the forum will be closed from accepting new topics. So that we can process all the remaining pending reports. Between now and then, you can continue to make reports on the forum. After this date, all reports will be made on the Community Bug Report site.

The issue is reported. Once the report has an outcome, we can provide an answer on that

Hi! Welcome to Thunder Show and the most impressive moments of the past week. What side would you pick in the battle between air and ground vehicles? Or, maybe, they’re their own worst enemies? Let’s see!

While in the game, go to “Community > Replays” and find the replay.


Press the “Rename” button and give it a memorable name.

New effects for aviation in the Sky Guardians update

A little sneak peek of the new visual and physical improvements in War Thunder aviation that will be introduced into the game with the upcoming Sky Guardians update!

Updated vapour cone effect

We have improved the vapour cone effect that can be seen at transonic speed of the aircraft due to the local pressure gradient. Look how realistic it is now!

New contrail and flow separation effects

The game will have a new effect of the contrail left by the running aircraft engines, the new contrail is visually longer, more distinctable and “fluffy”. Another improved effect that every pilot is familiar with is the wingtip flow separation effect. It may be observed as a long vortex cord from the wingtips during manoeuvres. Physical turbulence has been added to these effects, which makes them more varied and authentic.

Ejectio...

It's not really showing fully that they have different modes. This may be just part of the folding / adjustments mechanism.

However if you can find photos of the radar array elivated used these points or material suggesting the vehicle had such modes, that could be considered for a suggestion.

Right now it's just early considerations. Naturally if it progresses more we will provide more details.
