AA and SPAA Fuze

When they add more AA and perhaps higher caliber SPAA well like the premiun br 4 one they should have a fuze

I think fuzes might be a bit hard to implement for everyone to use effectively. Especially console players. A proximity detonation would be a better gameplay experience for casuals/community as a whole.

If the dev can change the HE-TF then sure but rn TF round seem like a dream (cause the current one act like normal HE)

Proximity Fuze was only a thing for USA in world war 2, pretty sure neither Germans nor Japanese want them in the game.

Just check this : Proximity fuze - Wikipedia

It was literally invented by the US in WW2, it was so good compared to standard shell that it would not allowed to be used near enemy territory until the very end of the war.

The german 88 mm fuze are TIME fuze, which means that it will exploded at the specified range after a set amount of time. The fuze Time has to be adjusted BEFORE firing the gun, so basically german AA gunner had to set a range for 1000 m for instance, then the shell would detonated precisely after it has reach these 1000m and this is exactly how TF (time fuze) shell works in War Thunder.

USA invented VT (variable time) that will trigger the fuze in closed proximity of the target regardless of any time limitation.

Germans were developing sound based proximity fuzed which never worked, while the US ones were radio-based and were extremely effective.

i mean if the dev can make it so i can adjust the TF to explode at, let say 500m that would be a start

Which can be made automatically by both crewman, thus effectively they could work as proximity fuzes.

Problem solved.

Classic fuzes would be borderline useless in our game, that’s fact.
