In the upcoming Danger Zone update, Israeli helicopters come to War Thunder! A few words on history, initial line-up and the first look on the new to the game light attack helicopter MD 500 TOW.

In 1975 the Israeli Air Force received its first batch of 6 American Bell AH-1G Cobra strike helicopters, previously used in Vietnam. Israeli pilots enthusiastically began to master a new type of military aircraft and nicknamed the American helicopters Tzefa - “Palestine viper” - after the largest poisonous snake in the region. A little later, the AH-1G was replaced by the AH-1S equipped with anti-tank missiles, and the Hughes MD500 TOW light helicopters, also equipped with ATGMs to destroy armored vehicles. Israeli attack helicopters received a baptism of fire in 1979 where they were widely used in battle in the First Lebanon War, showing a high combat efficiency. The last heli...

Your report wasn't a bug but a suggestion. Feel free to make a suggestion in the appropriate area. But it's not a Dev server bug report.

Oh no, you stole my comeback

No but seriously, yes we always plan to improve upon our graphics. I can't give any spesific details about our future plans with regards to invidual things, but it's an ongoing goal.

It's not really anything to do with being "too strong" at this stage.

Currently the developers have plans and some further development they want to work on regarding aviation HUDs and other features too. But the suggestion (and feedback on the matter) is well known to the developers and has been passed again recently

This really has nothing to do with this topic. Please use the naval section to discuss such matters.

Dev Server is now closed.

Thank you for all the feedback and reports!

In the marker-less game modes, 1st generation ATGMs do not fall on the ground anymore when switching to binoculars.

Likely not no.

No I'm not a consultant. I just happen to sometimes visit museums in the UK to collect photos of vehciles for the developers to use. But it's also inlcuded non British aircraft too like the F-4J and Mystere IV as well as others.

It's possible there is still one more )

Not within this update. So its not relevant here.

That would be a fake. As evident by the fact the stat card mentions the 88mm KwK43 of the Panther II we had in game when this fake model has a 75mm.

Someone probably just made a visual mod.

The 540lb bomb configuration does not yet exist in game for these aircraft. The suggestion for it has been forwarded, therefor this suggestion is deferred until such a time that weaponry exists in game on the Phantoms:

The developers first want to check the statistics and review game balance to see how the landscape is before issuing new top missiles.
