Weapons and vehicles of the "Hidden Threat" update

As much as I welcome the addition of Cromwell into Enlisted, since it occupies a special position of being an agile tank while having a little more armour to go around (not literal paper-thin, unlike Crusader)

At BR3, having it with 6pdr makes it so unappealing among other choices of tanks the Allies already have at BR3 (for example, Sherman M4A3 (105) HVSS )

Cromwell with 57mm should have been at BR2 (functionally replacing Crusader, but there are still other tanks with a more powerful gun, like Chaffee.)

Or could be Cromwell IV-V with 75mm gun, it has less penetration than 57mm but with a bigger explosive capability.

Except for the reloading speed, it’s almost better in everywhere, and with body armor, Soviet infantry will be unprecedentedly OP

No Lewis gun? Help for the Japanese airforce or weak arsenal?

More and more vehicles than guns, are you having trouble finding new guns? I don’t understand

We just got 3 weapons added in the Chinese New Year event update.
It was kinda obvious that this update would be vehicle focused.

Though the Soumi KP-31 SJR which is collecting dust in the editor could have been added and don’t you dare add it to April fools event.

A rather splendid Cromwell tank.

Excellent stuff, what about Japan aircraft, we need some more attackers or repurpose existing fighters?

Love the plane and the Cromwell and the AT (it will have HE right?).

Great additions, thank you :saluting_face:

Great to see Britain getting something but how about instead of another CAS place for Germany, we also got an Italian tank?!?

Well, Soviet now has the strongest infantry gears at BR5. There is zero reason to complain about fg422 anymore.
On the other hand, fg421 needs to have lower horizontal recoil. The performance difference between avs36 and fg421 is just too huge to ignore.

Finally an upgrade to broken fw190

Now lower sturmpanzer II to BR2!

These are some nice additions! Though I have some thoughts…

This “Major” update contains 4 items, 3 of which are copies of existing War Thunder assets. In addition to the AVS-36 20, a side grade to a weapon class at BR 5 with 3 options already, why haven’t tech tree “holes” such as the Japanese BR 3 AT weapon (9cm Type 4) and BR5 Attacker Aircraft (J6K1, Nakajima with 6 rockets etc). What about the missing BR 4 rifles for Allies and Japan?

Don’t get me wrong, these new additions are nice and appreciated. I just don’t know why we didn’t see holes prioritized over sidegrades.

Meh, such an empty update, almost like a fix of gameplay score with few useless things, a new class with one man squad weaker than guerilla squad, another random tank BR3 for allies, another glass canon for japanese and another assault rifle for urss that already have 3, well cool a heavy fighter br5 with bombs for german, why not but with the actual empty Battle pass that give another random pm br2… Purely anecdotal additions that won’t set the world on fire

It could also be used to add a Finnish squad

From what I’ve been told, it is not broken in WT…

Which squad will this plane be assigned to?

oh? maybe it’s been fixed since I last checked. All I know is that the Enlisted devs have stated they are unable to fix the FW flight model in Enlisted until the WT model is fixed by the devs over there, for whatever reason. Maybe it can be worked on now?
