Yup. A lot of early cold war stuff is getting br increases. Still some dumb stuff such as super Sherman and whatnot.

Also T29 to 7.3 because apparently it still makes German players whine. Complete bullshit and I'm glad I got 4k games out of it back when it was good.

Cold war should have always been a separate tree like coastal vs Blue water naval.

They reverted that BR change for it, thankfully.

The issue in ground forces was the uptiering of tanks from outside the WW2 era. It would be better to categorize by dates/gun size and have later ww2 fighting very early cold war prototypes. L7 NATO tanks versus the T-55 (and a few early T-72s), etc.
And if you're a minor nation GF like French or Japan you get fucked because your 8.7 should be a 8.0 at best. Rip the French APFSDS. It has similar pen to the Type 74 E's APDS at 100m. Reverse is true for HEAT-FS and HEAT on the Japanese lol.
Air battles well... Lmao Yak-9K 45mm versus the repeated 109 nerfs like swapping out 20mm gunpods for 15mm.

At this rate I'm waiting for snail to do something stupid and get sanctioned. Like putting the Ukrainian T-84 under the Soviets with a Z symbol on it.

Leopard 1 and BMP-1 at 7.3 were unironic disasters. No fucking way should the T32 be forced to deal with Konkurs and darts.

Oh wow. I'm sure they had to think long and hard if a T29 really deserves equal BR to the IS-6, despite how bad King Tiger players bitch and moan about it.

You only think you're being sarcastic considering how fucked things are from 1945 on for the USA regarding BR's.

If we're arguing that then:
Lmao HEAT-FS at 6.3 then on the STA line. How to make entire teams cry by hiding behind a heavy.
Lmao old STB-1/Type 74 at 7.7 (RB) with the upper gun mantlet of bounce (you could get 2000mm of armor at the right angle).

IT-1 is utter bullshit at 8.3 though alongside Object 120.
 
Lol rip Italy, OF-40 at 8.0 is just pain. It doesn't even have a stabilizer.

The entire world's military industrial complex's security systems defeated by a few war thunder nerds

Every such company and military institution has to identify all of their employees who play the game and fire them immediately.
 
Keep in mind a lot of these "leaks" are sensationalized, I think one of the past ones was legitimately classified but the rest were not. Not sure what is the case for this one in particular, but Gaijin doesn't allow posting any sources regardless. The game is full of inaccuracies to push people to buy their superior 60$ vehicles, and they constantly remove any proof from the forums so it doesn't make them look bad.

Edit: I dug a little deeper, like the other "leaks", this is an absolute nothing-burger, and typical gaijoobles cope. Here is that same manual for sale:
https://www.flight-manuals-online.com/product/eurofighter-typhoon/

Here is a dude submitting a FOIA request (and the associated response) to know if they're classified in the UK:
https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/confirmation_of_the_classificati
The response is basically "we don't know, ask the italians lol"

Either way, it's for sale online. If you look a little further it might find a pdf for free.

I don't know if this applies to other countries, but in the US certain documents can be freely bought and sold, namely certain manuals for military equipment, but are massive No-No's to put online or take out of the country. I think a dev for DCS got in trouble once for trying to take manuals for the F-16 out of country. So these manuals maybe readily available in physical form, but if you scanned and uploaded a PDF, you might get thrown in a black van.

This is a good website to look up US Army manuals to see if they're classified/not classified but not publicly available/etc. https://armypubs.army.mil/default.aspx
Came in handy when some kid was trying to brag that someone was giving him classified army manuals. I looked it up and it was like a 15 year old abrams training manual. Oh no, track tensioning!
