Training missions are available after researching and purchasing the corresponding modification. If you have not yet familiarized yourself in a mission for a weapon, the modification is marked with a "new" icon, which shows from in the hangar to the mission itself: on the "Modifications" button, on the modification itself and on the "Test" button, which starts the mission. The "new" icon disappears on all weapon modifications when viewing any single modification of a given weapon type. For example, if you view any missile with IR seeker (let's say AIM-9L), the icons will disappear on all missiles with IR seeker (AIM-9B, AIM-9G, R-60, R-73 etc.). You can always return to the modification window and test any weapon that you are interested in again. Missions are currently available to test the following aircraft weapons: |

Economy and research
- The required level for ground vehicle crews when purchasing the "Expert" qualification have been reduced due to Rank VIII vehicles being added:
- Rank IV: Level 30 → Level 25;
- Rank V: Level 45 → Level 35;
- Rank VI: Level 55 → Level 45;
- Rank VII: Level 60 → Level 55.
- The required level for ground vehicle crews when purchasing the "Ace" qualification have been reduced due to Rank VIII vehicles being added:
- Rank II: Level 50 → Level 45;
- Rank III: Level 60 → Level 50;
- Rank IV: Level 70 → Level 60;
- Rank V: Level 80 → Level 70;
- Rank VI: Level 85 → Level 80;
- Rank VII: Level 90 → Level 85.
- The cost of researching and purchasing ground vehicles of rank VI-VII has been reduced, and some vehicles have been moved from rank VII to rank VIII. The values of the following parameters have been reduced: the purchase price of vehicles in SL; the cost of putting vehicles in crew slots in SL; the purchase price of Expert Crews; the total cost of purchasing modifications in SL; the cost of researching vehicles in RP; the total cost of researching modifications for RP. For vehicles transferred to a higher rank, the RP earnings multiplier, and in some cases the SL earnings multiplier have been increased.

For the tank's ammunition, along with a HEAT-FS shell, one of the APFSDS shells is available immediately after purchasing the tank. We've decided to introduce this rule due to the fact that Rank VIII MBTs have well developed, all-round HEAT defense, and HEAT shells can be ineffective even against the side protection of tanks.
- IJN Mikuma — has been moved from Rank IV to Rank V.
Customization and Achievements
- New Gaijin.net achievements for using nuclear weapons, destroying an aircraft carrying nuclear weaponry, and using guided bombs have been added.

Interface
- Training missions have been added to the vehicle modification window, allowing you to familiarize yourself with the weapon that a modification unlocks and test them. Training missions are available after researching and purchasing the corresponding modification. If you have not yet familiarized yourself in a mission for a weapon, the modification is marked with a "new" icon, which shows from in the hangar to the mission itself: on the "Modifications" button, on the modification itself and on the "Test" button, which starts the mission. The "new" icon disappears on all weapon modifications when viewing any single modification of a given weapon type. For example, if you view any missile with IR seeker (let's say AIM-9L), the icons will disappear on all missiles with IR seeker (AIM-9B, AIM-9G, R-60, R-73 etc.). You can always return to the modification window and test any weapon that you are interested in again. Missions are currently available to test the following aircraft weapons:
- Air-to-surface missiles with manual guidance;
- Air-to-surface missiles with laser guidance on an aircraft with a stabilized target designator, but without a targeting pod;
- Air-to-air missiles with an infrared seeker.
- Air-to-air missiles with SARH seeker.
- An aircraft's parameters HUD is now displayed in the optical seeker view.
Game mechanics
- The ability to use universal backups in the respawn window without needing to activate them first in the modification window before a battle has been added.
- In Ground Realistic Battles, when an enemy is destroyed, a new skull destruction icon instead of the regular hit icon is displayed in the hit marker, signaling that the enemy has been destroyed.
- Contextual hints about the use of certain mechanics and equipment of ground vehicles have been added and occur when certain conditions are met. Each hint is only shown once per spawn; i.e. it can be shown again the next time you respawn in the current battle, or in the next battle. Each hint is shown no more than three times in three months. Whenever the corresponding mechanic is used, the game remembers this fact as showing a hint, so it doesn't get shown to experienced players if possible. Currently the following tips have been added:
- When trying to use the target lock of radar/IRST from third-person view, if the target lock is available only from the sights or binoculars, a hint recommending to switch to the sights is shown.
- When trying to use the target lock of radar/IRST from the sights or binoculars, if the target is missing, a hint recommending to point the sight to the target is shown. The successful target lock from the sights or binoculars is counted as a successful hint show.
- When not moving for 40 seconds, a hint about the ability to use binoculars to safely inspect the area is shown. The total binoculars usage time of 3 seconds is counted as a successful hint show.
- When getting damaged from the front, if the vehicle has smoke grenades, a hint about the possibility to use smoke grenades is shown. Using smoke grenades under any circumstances is counted as a successful hint show.
- When getting damaged from the rear, if the vehicle has ESS, a hint about the possibility to use ESS is shown. Turning ESS on under any circumstances is counted as a successful hint show.

01.02.2024 (2.33.0.105)
Aircraft
Display of vehicles at a distance
Targeting pods and optics for high-ranked aircraft help to see ground targets and give the ability to launch at ranges that are comparable to the engagement ranges of SAMs. However, due to a bug in applying angular target sizes to the detection range through targeting optics, these ranges were noticeably smaller than they should have been for small targets. For example, for smaller vehicles such as the Swedish Lvrbv 701, the maximum range at which it could be detected in the targeting pod was about 8 km. After fixing this bug, its detection range will be over 20 km instead, and for larger targets even more.
- A bug with the incorrect display of vehicles at long ranges when using targeting optics for aircraft has been fixed.
- A bug where looking through targeting optics, such as target designation pods, enemy markers could be detected at distances exceeding the enemy marker detection capabilities and crew skills has been fixed.

- In Ground Arcade and Realistic battles, when a scouted target is destroyed by a player who attacked it within 60 seconds before the scouting, the scout is now always given a "Not by intelligence" reward. This also means that the scout will not receive an increase in air strike and artillery points (in Ground Arcade), and a reduction in the cost of spawn points for aircraft (Ground Realistic).
- A bug in Ground Arcade battles when destroying a scouted target from an aircraft, the reward "Not by intelligence" was always given, without taking into account whether the player had seen the target before the scouting or not has been fixed.

15.02.2024 (2.33.0.132)
Aircraft
- Tearing off the tail of helicopters with coaxial rotors is no longer counted as destruction, since it does not have a significant impact on the performance of these types of helicopters and does not lead to them crashing. This should help situations where players stop firing at one of these helicopters thinking it is no longer a threat.
- The detachment of an aircraft wing when the allowable load is exceeded is no longer counted as a destruction, the same as with the tearing off of flaps or landing gear.
Other
- Previously announced changes to vehicle grouping have been implemented
