War Thunder Dev Tracker

China will be getting the Q-5 and CM-25 this update.

MiG-23 is not coming, I was sure we already said that.

AIM-7 is indeed bugged and we are working on those issues.

We have reminded them all again and waiting for news.

At this point im just going to post a Pic of my cat soon since hes a British short hair so it TECHNICALLY counts because people cant wait for that blog.

There is no new Type 74 coming this update, we can say that much.

XP-38G wont be available for purcahse after YP-38 comes out.

XP-38G technically is not a historical aircraft. YP-38 is its historical replacement. So we dont plan to keep XP-38G available except for those that have it.

No. Im afraid it was lost in translation. Those that have XP-38G will keep it and wont be taken from them. But it will be a rare premium that wont ever return.

YP-38 will be a totally new aircraft available for purcahse for everyone separate from the XP-38G.

For clarification on the XP-38G. Developers have now confirmed the following. Unfortunately it was lost in translation

If you own XP-38G you keep it. It will be removed from availability from the next update and the YP-38 will be introduced from that point as a new aircraft available for purchase.

XP-38G will be removed from availability and replaced with YP-38.

EDIT: Developers have clarified, if you own XP-38G you will keep it and be able to purcahse YP-38 as a separate aircraft.
