THE SHOOTING RANGE 273: Tactical Briefing / War Thunder 

Terrific episode, Gaijin. Love the new Tactical Briefing segment, too.

I'm slightly concerned that Bruce even knows about my uncles backyard water-slide

Oh man, those Custom skins from Live.WT are so so cool, well done to the designers

Can some other old relic planes get an updated model like the B-17s got? Even the cockpit looks like a "sticker" in some (fighter) planes that are in the game from the start!

Challege: Gunship Get a Groundtarget (ligth tank or AA are the only that will work i think) kill in mixed battels with the defensive weopons from any aircraft you like.

I love the new changes for the Char 25t but those 13 thousand in repair cost still hurt

Love the new Tactical briefing, please continue this Section in Future Shooting Range episodes

WOW SUCH CHILLING STORY! THANKS!!

after the ammo cartridges update will there be an animation for loaders loading the gun in open top-tanks?

I would love to see you guys add the elc even series to france

Could we see more minor nation tech lines? Its a fun and interesting thing, however I suggest that you create a Completely separate tech tree labelled "Unity Tree" or something. Any and all nations are placed in this tech tree, transport South Africa there too.

Question: The voicelines of tank crews and pilots in your trailer sound really impressive. Can you guys add them to the gameplay?

I have 3 questions: 1: Why can't we test drive normal techtree vehicles that are still locked? 2: Why is the R3 at such a low BR, I see no reason for it to be when it has a fully auto 20mm cannon, its amphibious, and it's extremely fast compared to other tanks at it's BR? 3: Why are there giant purple circles popping up in people's games all of the sudden?

Question: Hey Gaijin,For the next April's fool event or something Could you add the AC1 sentinel Tank?

i have a very important question: why is it that the mig 21smt/bis cost almost twice the amount to repair then the f4e?

When will you properly rename the name of the barrel of the 25T Tank. Because right now it’s called the "90mm 90mm gun," I don’t call it a proper name. Its correct name would be the "90 mm F3 gun".

The Pages of History part was amazing, the tension when the two pilots were dueling... Good job!

Question: Any re-balancing re-BR-ing or any such plans for the Naval?

Question: Will you ever add collision and falling damage in tanks?

Will we ever get the VAB Mephisto or the VBL MILAN? It would be nice to have those modern baguettes in the game

Nice to see the new section. I for one personaly only notice new changes only if some of the youtubers mention them (and thats if i have to time to watch the video they mention it in). Thank you Shooting Range team

TOW-2B has 2 charges, that fire one after another with a delay, so they should work against ERA. You can find details on the forum. I couldnt find how big that delay is, but Gaijin has stated that implementing a tandem top attack missile with a tantalum projectile is at this point impossible in current game engine. They just cant admit it, so they rather tell players that TOW-2B is defeated by roof ERA. lol

Q: where does the bullet casing get out of aircraft wings?

Q: there are emergency gear buttons/ grips in planes... Will they ever become a function?

tactical briefing is a good addition! what about the heli PvE gamemode you promised us back ehen ixwa strike was launched?

Im liking these new changes you guys hv brought up

Tactical briefing is an amazing addition

Question Would it be possible to add underwing Fuel Tanks into the game? I'd like to see Phantoms or even Mustangs with their drop tanks

12:30 it doesnt matter because it still goes trough era/kontakt. both the explosion(killing with overpressure) and the pen effect cuz the armor is too thin

I love the videos! Good information!

I absolutely love the TIS MA. It and the ITP have given me a lot to love about good old Polikarpov, even more than I already did. The Tu-1, on the other hand, is too fat and slow in comparison as far as I'm concerned. I've been able to clear the skies as effectively as the ground with the TIS MA's 37mm cannons and decent air performance, but in test flights with the Tu-1, it's very sluggish and difficult to maneuver even after ordnance is expended. A higher BR and heavier ordnance isn't enough to make it better than the TIS in my opinion.

That story was pretty pog, well done

Start updating the french tree, it has a ton of possible additions, and if you bring down the repair cost people will actually consider playing it.

the new tactical Briefing is a really good idea. I didn't new about the Kontakt 5 and relikt thing

Thanks for the briefing Command

Question: what is the lightest and heaviest light tank or lightest and heaviest heavy tank?

Question: Would there be a new rank for aviation, with Gen 3+ and Gen 4 fighter jets?

Here’s a question for a update can you fix on the T14 mod getting killed when only being hit in the engine compartment

Can you do a Pages of History for the Ki-83? Or a triathlon between the pusher prop fighters in the game?

its so good to hear your voice again

I have a question, Bruce, regardless to my fighting tactic. Just researched some tanks at B.R 7.0 for Americans and Soviets and my tactics i used during WW2 tiers aren't working anymore, any advises?

Question: when we can test drive non-researchable tanks? aka locked.

Q; Why have I not been able to play the newest map "Space Port" at all since it was added, should I be playing a higher BR?

I would like to ask if Strf 9040 bill stabilizer will be repaired because it have vertical stabilizer insted of two plane stabilizer

the new sections is great.

Q: why does the hull mounted mgs on some german tanks like the tiger II H in the information pictures dissapeard? Plz anser cuz i have been thinking of this for quite a while now.

Hey! Could you guys do a tactical briefing for Helicopter Enduring Confrontation pls?! How are you Bruce - all good with you?!

Question: What is the maximum altitude reachable by SPAA cannons/MGs? Could this be listed on the vehicle stats?

How does the plane spawns work in casual ground battle as sometimes the bomber might spawn really close to the enemy planes and sometimes really far away from them

I have this problem that when i enter a match it always kick me out when i get a kill and my connection is also fine so I don't know what caused it kicked me out

Hey warthunder, I have a suggestion. It's about a Churchill tank with the Ardeer Aggie cannon.(It was an prototype tank with multiple tests before it was abandoned ) It would be cool if it was in the game.

The donkey sound was unexpected, but surely welcomed.

Challenge: Try to scout and destroy as many enemies as possible by hiding in destroyed buildings with the ASU - 57. Call it "Hide and destroy" (I suggest you try this on Advance to the rhine as it is a great map due to the fact that there are many broken houses near the road between point A and B.)

Q: I saw that you posted a new vehicle for a new update, when will you show us some new top tier jet's

Question: will you ever bring back the Maus bavk to the tech tree for newer players and people who couldn't get it before it got taken out?

Hey Gaijin! Could you consider allowing re-application of ERA on capture points? For instance, if I’ve got mine used up or shot off, I can go to the A point and re-equip it(kind of like restocking ammunition)

Have some of the amphibious tanks lost their amphibious cababilites or is there somewhere you can turn it on? Played the Ikv 91, tried to swim, and sunk

This is why i love the shooting range

Question: any plans to implement legacy Naval UI options for those of us who don't like most of the changes in "Direct Hit"?

Q: Heya Bruce! Is it ok if we know when your Birthday is? I’d like to wish you a happy one sometime!

Question for hotline: Will the Strv122's get new apfsds like the Slpprj m/95?

Q- whats the aircraft that can get to the highest alt the fastest? Maybe top tier jets like 11.0?

Let's ask the big question. Like intelligence award. Why do we get intelligence in some cases and then other times get scouted target destroyed? What is the criteria for each? Can this be featured in the next shooting range?

Why are the rockets with proxy fuse of the BMP 2M not trigered if the rocket is passing just above of an enemy tank?

Question: why does the Spitfire MkIa even when fully upgraded and an aced crew, feel so sluggish compared to other fighters? Such as the hurricane or the BF109 E-3/4.

What changes were made to the US 50 cals. ? And is it consistent for every country?

Q: will u add a full Canadian tree for both ground air and sea in the future?

Tactical Briefing is great!

Question: why do I have to pay repair cost when a friendly player kills me?

hey gaijin, now with ground braking update would be a good time to activate the D point, placing it in a point accessible only by engineering vehicles that can access and facilitate the passage through difficult terrain. ;)

When will you add the Japanese type 10 MBT to the game? (You could make an option in modifications for extra armour) PS could you add a modification for the ka mi that works the same as the ka chi for skirts?

Q: can you add the T 54M the one with the thermal sight

will you add the T-64 (1967) with the 115 mm gun?

Can you explain what scouting a target does for the team? I understand it earns the player doing it credits and RP but why? What does it do to help?

Will we at some point have the ability to remove side-skirts from tanks before going into battle?

Q: can you do a pages of history on the g91?

Q: Best use for Sherman Firefly? and best tactics for it?

Is there a minimum distance for the APS on AMX-30B2 BRENUS to work?

challenge: try going super sonic in the prop planes, doesn't have to be in tacked. can you do it?

This October can you give us the chance to research that legendary heavy tank that everybody talks about in German Lineup? Please 🥺🥺

You guys going to do anything with the Churchill black prince

10:30 when he said char 25t I was looking at one in ground rb lol Edit: And during the time I was typing this comment, he killed me.

Id love for test flys even in tires we have not unlocked yet

Sup Gaijin, do you have any thoughts on adding the Desert Warrior version of the Warrior?
