War Thunder Update 2.45.1.37 Fixes Vehicle Bugs

War Thunder update 2.45.1.37 fixes cockpit HUD modes for the Sea Harrier FA 2 and corrects rendering distances for several Soviet aircraft. Ground vehicles including the Sabra Mk.I, Ho-Ri variants, and Vilkas also receive visual and damage model fixes.

Gaijin Entertainment has released update 2.45.1.37 for War Thunder, addressing specific vehicle bugs and visual inconsistencies for aircraft and ground units based on community reports.

Aircraft Fixes

The Sea Harrier FA 2 receives a fix for an issue where the cockpit HUD failed to automatically switch to air-to-air mode when selecting air-to-air missiles. For the Su-25, Su-25K, Su-17M2, Su-17M4, Su-22M3, and MiG-21S, a bug is resolved where vehicles rendered in from shorter distances when viewed through the sight glass compared to the cockpit glass.

Ground Vehicle Fixes

The Sabra Mk.I no longer features a bug that caused the gun mantlet fabric cover to remain static while the turret rotated. All variants of the Ho-Ri receive a fix for the armor plate above the gun failing to rise in the damage model. The Vilkas has a fix where the X-ray of the right rocket was not positioned coaxially with the launcher.

General and Replay Improvements

An issue that prevented players from switching to weapon view in replays is fixed. These changes stem from community feedback and bug reports gathered across official platforms.

Why this patch matters

Update 2.45.1.37 delivers targeted fixes for aircraft HUDs, ground vehicle damage models, and replay controls.
