Weapons and vehicles of the "Forest Shadows" update

why only russia? you could at least add the MAB38S for the axis (which is very easy to do since it is the same MAB but with a silencer)




and finally a little love for Japan

Another bias to add to my long ass list:

  • Fedorov Rifle/MG/Avtomat = Better than anything that Germany has
  • AS-44 = Straight upgrade to STG44 (bayonet and minor stats all upgraded)
  • RD-44 = Best TT lmg in the game
  • PPSh-41 drum = Best TT smg in the game
  • RMN-50 = Usable even at BR5, and since grenade rifle nerfs it’s only nade launcher that can still murder groups of the enemies
  • LAD = not a single German smg can have 150 rounds
  • NKVD Tommies = Conders but much stronger dmg
  • AT-44 = After a buff it’s the best mid range AR in the game perfect accuracy with above average rof
  • Body armor: Ever dreamed of cosplaying Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Then here we go! We have also provided handy bonus of +10% bullet protection and 1% chance of ricochet and negating all damage.
  • Su-9 = Better flight and anti air performance than me262
  • 2x Paratroopers = Can hold 6x Fedorovs or AS-44 + RD-44 x3 from the box
  • Soviet Assault engineers = 6x Fedorovs (Ass engies are nothing special as Germany has them but Germany has not a single equivalent of buffed Fedorov)
  • La-7 = Really solid plane with great turn rate

Idk man this feels like it should be a event weapon for a gurilla squad:

Oh.

So… pretty identical gameplay wise…

Same TD with good canon, but nerfed armour that doesn’t bounce shells anymore in br5.

I suppose some ppl wanted it :thinking:

Instead of adding rockets to J2M3 devs added slower fighter plane with rockets? To the same squad? At the same BR?

would be cool to see each nation gets their own suppressed weapons in the TT 10/10 update

NEW INFANTRY TOY!! also what is the classified as and what does the stat card look like all up? Either way very happy to see this. Surely we get an M1 Carbine Sawoff some day soon™ !!

FINALLY A BR3 FIGHTER FOR JAPAN IN THE TECH TREEE YESSSSSS MY BR3 LINE-UP LOOKING SO GOOD RIGHT NOW!! Very excited, I love my planes!

JAPAN FINALLY HAS ROCKETS! It may only be two of them but it’s much nicer than the zero we had before this. I feel like this might slightly overtierd and should maybe be BR4. But then again I could be completely underestimating it. Absolutely stunning, gorgeous.

As a die-hard Japan main this update looks incredible for that alone! Wonderful work Devs very excited!!

Edit: imo the carbine should really be classified as an SMG so it’s not completely overshadowed by the Hei Auto.

They should have just brought a premium version back for purchase.

Because the premium bonus is literally the only reason for why to play this vehicle over King Tiger.

Anyways i’m glad they added the M36 GMC but at tier V tho…ehhhhh tbh in my opinion they should have put it in BR 4…

I suspect they brought that in TT to prepare the subsequent implementation of something a tad exaggerated and power creep, the IS3, in the close future…

We will see.

I’m happy for Japan br3 plane at least.

Type 5 No.6 Mod.9 - War Thunder Wiki

Appears to be a worse Wfr.Gr.21.

Yeah with it’s crappy armor it should be BR4

Honestly both M36 and Jagdpanther should be BR4. JP is just a joke at BR5 that gets dunked by everyone no point in playing it’s premium i no longer use more than a single Tiger anyway as tanks are too weak at BR5 with everyone carrying fausts and jets spamming bombs 24/7.

@MajorMcDonalds I really appreciate all the latest additions! But a sawed-off M2 Carbine for Japan as a semi-auto? While the godly Type Hei Automatic Rifle exists? Please convey to the developers that we actually want something authentic for Japan. For instance, the Type 2 SMG chambered in the 6.5×30mm SR Type 95 Arisaka cartridge. This could have been an excellent AR for Japan and could provide some good competition to the ‘be all and end all’ Type Hei Automatic Rifle.

Please actually look into the existing gaps in the TT while introducing an equipment therein.

its a lot faster than the king tiger so i enjoy using it from time to time to get a long 88 to the point asap

Can we please stop bastardizing weapons and putting the result abominations in tech tree?

Just like with PPSh Obrez – captured, modified, ultra-rare experimental weapons that were not adopted by militaries or used in WW2 SHOULD NOT appear outside of events/gold orders/premiums.


Any sources Silenced PPSh-41 existed at all? @MajorMcDonalds

I think it a great update overall.
Great content for Japan.
Why is the the PPSH the only tech tree silenced weapon though?
Locking the other silenced weapons behind a pay wall seems unfair.
Please dont put the Jagdpanther in the same squad as the Tiger 2.
Please change the N1K2 to an attacker plane as Japan does not have a Br5 attcker plane.
