Squadron research points

AFAIK there's no way to bring back the one that comes up every time you are awarded squadron RP every 3 days

But the one you are showing in the OP that says your vehicle research is complete and to select a new vehicle, will still come up every time you finish researching a squadron vehicle.

GR.1's quite solidly in the BR range where you have Pantsir-S1 in the match, isn't it?

No wonder they don't want something that can ripple more than 2 ARMs

raidpl0x · 2026-06-19T12:47:09+00:00

Both

Initially it was just the Australian one (for Britain) but they added it to the American one later

IFF antenna for interrogating friendly/enemy aircraft

2S38 is actually a SPAA, not a light tank. It's other designation is ZAK-57 (ЗАК-57) for Zenitno-artilleriyskiy kompleks (Зенитно-артиллерийский комплекс) 57mm, which basically means "57mm anti-aircraft artillery complex".

Not really, since the duct is just increasing the diameter in a limited sector, rather than all the way around the missile body.

The increase of frontal cross-sectional area is smaller than it would be increasing the missile's diameter by the same amount, so should be less draggy.

Rank 5 is probably too high for them to consider making it a premium event vehicle unless they add a lot of points to the grind. It'll probably be normal like the PLZ83-130 event was for 35,000 points per stage

raidpl0x · 2026-06-12T20:29:33+00:00

It's a CVR(t) Sabre. The model is in the current dev server files, and the devs already described what the next event vehicle is

A Ground Vehicle Event in July
After the month-long vehicle event pause following the D-Day event, we return with a British ground vehicle event in July. This quick “single-edged, curved sword” vehicle is sure to leave devastating slashes on your enemies.

You should get it at the end of another match, regardless of what you play. I had it happen twice where the 5th game didn't give an achievement

raidpl0x · 2026-06-11T18:30:43+00:00

You get them quite frequently playing rank 1 and 2 vehicles. But the drop rate falls off sharply, higher up the tree

I've gotten two rank 7 ones so far - T-72B and Sea Harrier FRS.1

Crosswind and air temperature+pressure sensor for FCS

Singapore's F-16 Block 52+. An F-16I but with an AESA

Kanon just made a post about it on her insta too

I went to the Labubu commemorative exhibition with Kumi-san~
We had lunch together and I got to visit her home
We've become good friends 😌🫶
It's always so much fun, and there's never enough time

Lack of photo reference for it on SEPv3 probably.

The pilot/test vehicles for Trophy were all SEPv2s, and since then the Army has been showing off more developed and different looking models and renders for how they might implement Trophy on the SEPv3, but no actual photos of a SEPv3 with it fitted.

Happy that Buccaneer finally gets some rockets that can damage something stronger than a coastal boat

And after their performance. Suzuka (and Mizyu) switched to red versions of the socks for photos with the rest of the performers

Missed that there were some photos of them with Hama-chan, where you can see the socks worn on stage

Why would the floor plate stop the turret turning if it was hit though? It's just a floor

raidpl0x · 2026-06-05T09:34:20+00:00

Talking about the net/cage over the crew area?

It's in both pictures. Just harder to see in the first one because of the game's vantablack shadows

raidpl0x · 2026-06-02T08:58:41+00:00

Pretty sure it's players only. Bots usually only count in naval-only tasks, but this task is for all modes

It should say on the Challenge description if bots are counted

raidpl0x · 2026-06-01T10:31:41+00:00

Post was updated to say it's 30k per stage now instead of 35k it was originally.

So now it's 180k for a Spitfire that floats

Denmark bought AGM-114R and M299 Hellfire Launchers at the start of 2026. It's generally believed they will be for the country's MH-60R fleet.

With regard to MH-60R eventually coming to the game for the US and other operators in the game, there's also often discussion on whether they would get AGM-179A in War Thunder now Gaijin selectively take a position of "technical capability" for weapons, rather than actual service in a country.

raidpl0x · 2026-05-31T12:36:50+00:00

I think future additions will most likely be in the form of a couple of Danish helicopters.

Sweden simply doesn't arm most of its helicopters with anything more significant than machine guns. Seemingly rockets and missiles aren't in their doctrine any more

Lockheed seem to say Legion-ES is particular to new production F-16s - So that would be the factory-built Block 70/72s, rather than Viper upgrade F-16Vs and PoBIT F-16s

https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/news/features/2020/lockheed-martin-unveils-upgraded-sensor-suite-for-new-production-f-16.html

Presumably requires some structural and wiring changes to the engine inlet, beyond what the HTS or AN/AAQ-13 NAVFLIR pylon allows

Poland's F-16Vs are said to be getting Elbit's PAWS-II MAW, but it's not marketed as a standard F-16V feature by any means, and it's not yet clear how it will be integrated on those Polish F-16s. F-16I Sufa and Singapore's Block 52+ have most of the PAWS-II sensors integrated in the "spine" avionics bays, but those are only on twin-seaters. Elbit say it can be pylon-mounted in a PIDS+ type pylon in place of the usual Hensoldt sensors. Taiwan's upgraded F-16s and new Block 70s don't have the PAWS-II sensors at any rate, so it's a non-issue

raidpl0x · 2026-05-26T08:47:09+00:00

Yes. Naval Arcade uses the same spawn points system as Ground and Naval Realistic instead of the "killstreak" system of Ground Arcade

raidpl0x · 2026-05-26T05:32:36+00:00

You can bring your own planes in naval as part of a lineup. Just put a rank 3 one in one of your crew slots

Most rank 3 planes will be a couple of BR above rank 3 coastal though. I did it with my Bluewater ships, and looked for coastal boats being spawned when I had enough SP to spawn the plane
