War Thunder Update 2.47.0.114 Adjusts Missile Tracking and Vehicle Stats

War Thunder update 2.47.0.114 removes target angular speed limits for aircraft missiles in Realistic Battles, fixes infrared signatures on select Soviet jets, and updates ground vehicle handling for the T-64 and Type 99.

War Thunder update 2.47.0.114 brings mechanical fixes and targeted adjustments to air and ground combat. Notable changes include removed seeker limitations for guided weapons during aircraft maneuvers and corrected research trees.

Aircraft Seeker and Ordnance Tweaks

In Realistic Battles, the angular speed limitation on target tracking prior to missile launches or bomb drops has been removed, preventing guided weapon seekers from losing locks during hard maneuvers. The third-person camera moves slightly further back across numerous aircraft like the JA37, F-4 Phantom II, MiG-23, and Tornado to improve visibility. Su-25T, Su-39, and Su-25SM3 jets feature lower IR emission levels from their R-195 engines based on historical data. Additionally, the AIM-26B drag coefficient increases, the F-5E drops to one countermeasure per input, and a bug blocking bomb releases above 20 kilometers altitude is resolved.

Ground Vehicle Adjustments

T-64 variants run at an increased idle speed of 800 RPM rather than 600 RPM. The Type 99 anti-aircraft machine gun falls under direct gunner control, the Vilkas autocannon designation updates from Mk.44 to Mk.44S, and the 2S19M1 and 2S19M2 self-propelled howitzers carry 300 rounds across five 60-round boxes.

Interface and Benchmark Fixes

A bug causing cameras to clip through dense clouds in the Pacific war day benchmark is gone. Multi-Vehicle SAM TEL units leave the Vehicle Collector profile showcase due to their non-main status. F/A-18C Late ordnance icons shift from GNSS to laser-guided depictions, and the Su-34 research tree correctly demands the KAB-500Kr modification before unlocking the KAB-1500Kr.
