These proposed trees (and they were just that, proposals only) are long outdated and should not be referred too. Thats not to say that some aircraft wont ever make an appearance, for example like the P-51C and P-47 Razerbacks last patch, but this was back in the days when ground forces were in their infancy and we didn't have Rank VI, VII, Helicopter or Naval.

I can confirm this was the error message displayed when the 4000 player cap was turned on during the last dev server. We had a huge number of people attempting to play at once.

USS North Dakota was the second of two American Delaware-class battleships, built by the US Navy in the late 1900’s as a response to the appearance of dreadnought-type battleships. Arriving with the release of the “New Power” major update, USS North Dakota will become one of the first American battleships available to captains in War Thunder!



Briefly: Heavily armed and well-protected, USS North Dakota is a typical battleship of its era and the first ship of its class to become available to American captains in the game.
USS North Dakota, battleship, rank V, USA
Pros
➕ Heavy-duty firepower
➕ Good armor protection
➕ Large complement
Cons
➖ Low mobility
➖ Lackluster AA

Right now there is not one. It's down to the developers to decide on M829A1 or any new shells for anything and it's not always possible before the patch without seeing the actual statistics and balance on the live server with full population, not just on paper opinions or test server perspectives.

Comment

This wasn't strictly necessary as I already said, both the Devs and consultants were already aware and working on the matter. It's more a case of time as there are also other aircaft awaiting flares too.


But we can forward it anyway.



Definitely don't expect it to have either of these on lunch. We already clarified why R-60M is not necessary or needed right now. In future it's possible. But considering we also don't have AIM-9L on the aircraft that should have them, don't expect these right now either.


Leclerc S.1 in game as it currently stands is already one of the most advanced and powerful tanks we had in game. The primary problem people faced with it is it had to lineup backup. The S.2 corrects this. Right now it's not in need of any new shells. But as with always we can always expand its arsenal not just in shells too in future if it's nee...

We would like to remind players that the current warbonds shop will be extended until the release of the “New Power” major update.


We identified a bug, where the level of your warbonds shop might have been reduced from the beginning of November. This problem has been fixed! The level of your warbonds shop will no longer be reduced. Have a good game!

Settsu was the second of two Kawachi-class dreadnoughts built for the Imperial Japanese Navy after the Russo-Japanese War of the early 1900’s. Being the first true dreadnought built by Japan, this formidable warship will also soon become the first battleship to arrive in the ranks of the IJN in War Thunder as part of the next major update “New Power”!

Briefly: The first dreadnought type warship built by Japan, boasting excellent protection and firepower, but lackluster mobility and anti-air defence.
Settsu, battleship, Japan, V rank.
Pros
➕ Numerous large-calibre cannons
➕ Strong armor protection
➕ Torpedoes
Cons
➖ Lacking AA protection



In War Thunder, Settsu will be the first battleship to arrive to the ranks of the Imperial Japanese Navy in War Thu... Read more

We dont have a separate dev client for Linux, Mac, PS4 or Xbox.

Not sure what year in the future you think your in, but the game is just celebrating its 8th year and ground forces only really joined in 2013/14, so that's 7/6 years at best.


We also never indicated ground would ever get an EC mode.
