War Thunder Update 2.31.0.21 Fixes HUD and Vehicle Bugs

War Thunder Update 2.31.0.21 fixes an IR spotlight bug in random battles, corrects F-111A HUD tracking, and resolves various interface errors on consoles. Several aircraft and naval vessels also receive targeted collision and camera adjustments.

Gaijin Entertainment has released Update 2.31.0.21 for War Thunder. This patch clears out a range of bugs affecting ground vehicle equipment, aircraft targeting displays, and interface elements on console gamepads.

Aircraft and Ground Vehicles

Ground vehicle IR spotlights now function correctly in random battles. For aircraft, the F-111A no longer suffers from the reticle getting stuck in the top left of the HUD when turning on CCRP and bomb mode. The AH-129D and Tiger HAD Block II can now participate in Helicopter Battles, and the AH-129D targeting camera position has been corrected. Additionally, the MH-60L DAP third-person camera has been moved back.

Naval and Interface Fixes

Visual display errors for torpedoes have been resolved for the GIS 811, PT-15, MTB Vosper, MTB Vosper variant, SGB Grey Fox, and D-3 vessels. Interface fixes address broken decal mirroring, cursor behavior when resizing decals with console gamepads, cut-off discount tags on backups and talismans, and an erroneous skill bonus level icon for players below level 1. Console players will also no longer encounter a blank Multifunction Menu.

Why this patch matters

A straightforward bug-squashing update that fixes specific vehicle loadout locks, HUD tracking errors, and frustrating UI bugs for gamepad users.
