War Thunder Update 2.47.0.18 Fixes Armor Models and Camouflage Prices
Update 2.47.0.18 for War Thunder fixes volumetric armor on the T-72B3A, restores missing turret armor on the CM11, and drops the Golden Eagle price for the CS/SA5 digital camouflage. The patch also addresses cockpit texture issues, aircraft flap mechanics, and American Desert spawn points.
Gaijin Entertainment deployed update 2.47.0.18 for War Thunder, addressing vehicle armor models, cockpit visual glitches, and interface items based on community feedback reports.
Ground Vehicle Armor
The T-72B3A gun mantlet now implements volumetric armor, and the CM11 turret armor appears correctly in X-ray view. On the Vextra 105, the driver's hatch position on the damage model matches the visual model. The CLAWS and EldE 98 trailers rotate correctly with their visual damage models.
Aircraft Adjustments
Tempest aircraft variants lock flaps automatically after high-speed retraction, requiring manual re-extension for subsequent use. HUD texturing errors on the A-4E Early in third-person view and cockpit instrument texture flickering on the J-8B are fixed. The RAH-66 recovers its missing third-person cursor.
Economy and Missions
The CS/SA5 digital camouflage price drops from 1,000 to 200 Golden Eagles, with refunds issued to past buyers. Raketenautomat sights align upward with its launchers. An incorrect team swap for aircraft spawn points on American Desert at Battle Rating 11.7 and above is fixed.
Why this patch matters
Update 2.47.0.18 resolves key community bug reports regarding armor accuracy and vehicle loadouts without introducing major meta shifts.
