Today we’d like to cover the improved aircraft damage models and new multifunctional display screens (MFD) that we’re preparing for the next War Thunder update.
More Detailed Aircraft Damage Models
Our work on each update not only involves creating new vehicles, but also bringing existing vehicles up to modern War Thunder standards. As you may have noticed, new aircraft and helicopters feature detailed renderings of internal modules and systems, with cues indicating what happens when a module is damaged. But all the while, we’re also simultaneously upgrading the damage models of existing vehicles to this standard. To achieve this, our model designers once again return to their favorite vehicles already conquering the skies of War Thunder. The developers study detailed blueprints, photographs, and sometimes even prefabricated models to meticulously model and correctly place internal modules.
In the next update, we’re preparing detailed internals and improved damage models for over 80 (!!!) vehicles in the game, and we’re sure your favorites will be there too!

Yep, air combat is becoming increasingly complex. We’re always working on new radar systems, targeting algorithms, and of course, new advanced weapons. In the next major update, we’ll keep working on new screens and features for multifunction displays (MFDs) in aircraft c*ckpits so that you can use the new high-tech additions in an even more authentic way.
Among other features, pilots can look forward to LANTIRN targeting pod screens for the F-14B, F-15, and F-16 fighters, an ATFLIR pod screen for the some of the F/A-18 family members, a radar screen, and an AGM-65 air-to-ground missile screen for the F-4 Phantom II. Flight instrument and engine screens will be added for the Z-10 and Z-19 series helicopters, and the EC-665 Tiger will receive a weapons targeting page on the right display.
