War Thunder Update 2.45.0.15 Fixes Aircraft and Sound Bugs

War Thunder update 2.45.0.15 fixes community-reported bugs, including Su-30SM hardpoint clipping, F-5E CCIP gun removal, altitude sound issues for ground vehicles, and hit camera replication errors.

Update 2.45.0.15 for War Thunder addresses aircraft model issues, ballistic changes, and audio bugs reported by the community across official platforms.

Aircraft Model and Weapon Adjustments

On the Su-30SM, developers fixed a bug where the R-27ER missile on the central rear under-fuselage hardpoint intersected with the Grom-2 bomb on the forward hardpoint. Another Su-30SM fix resolves an issue where distance ruler cutoffs on the MFD radar screen displayed decimal points. The Tornado IDS MLU RET.8 left external fuel tank now displays correctly in X-ray mode. MK 101 and MK 103 guns receive an increase in SAPHEI-T shell fuse sensitivity to 2 mm. On the F/A-18C Early, players no longer need to press the night vision mode key twice to deactivate thermals. Following historical documentation sources T.O. 1F-5E-1 and T.O. 1F-5E-34-1-1, CCIP for the guns has been removed from the F-5E.

Ground Vehicles and Naval Replays

Ground vehicles destroyed via ammunition detonation now correctly display the vehicle destruction animation in the hit camera rather than an ordinary hit. A bug affecting hit analysis replays, which previously caused nothing to happen for certain shots on ground vehicles, has been resolved. A similar replay bug where naval shells exploded prematurely before reaching targeted ships has also been fixed.

Audio and Environment Fixes

Air defense vehicles no longer spawn incorrectly at stage airfields. A bug that caused ground vehicle engine and track sounds to lower in volume at higher altitudes above sea level is resolved. Additionally, minimizing and maximizing the game no longer causes other players' engine sounds to remain stuck at their previous positions until movement resumes.

Why this patch matters

Update 2.45.0.15 delivers bug fixes that improve gameplay accuracy for aircraft loadouts, hit camera feedback, and audio positioning.
