Rumors and Speculation
Gaijin recently teased an experimental supersonic fighter jet by posting an early development look. Although we can barely make out any details through the camouflage net, rumblings have emerged that maybe we’ll get a brand new plane this year—something with Mach 0.5 to 3.0 (that 2-4 times speed of sound).
On social media platforms, dedicated War Thunder fan groups hypothesize that upcoming content like World War II aircraft from Asian countries like China, Turkey, and Indonesia could create new paths in the Battle Royale game mode. Don’t get your hopes shattered; only a confirmed update would support this speculative excitement.
