War Thunder News

• The sounds of ATGMs and unguided rockets flying past the player have been adjusted so that they sound less like jet aircraft flying over, and also sound more distinctive.
  
• Squares A1-A2 and partially B1-B2 have been excluded from the available play area on the [Domination #1]Mozdok mission to avoid spawn trap kills on the northern spawn point.
  
• The available play area in all missions on the Sinai location have been shifted to the left to exclude the hills, which allowed for control of most of the location and spawn points.
  
• All AB missions on the Sinai location now have spawn points located similar to RB/SB missions.
  
• J-9 — artifacts have been removed from the cockpit view.
  
• SMS Sachsen — camo mapping has been fixed.
  
• Target re-acquisition after short homing break down has been improved for SARH missiles.

To unlock the trophy, you’ll need the new “Air Superiority” key that can be purchased on the Market for GJN. Read more about the Market and Gaijin Coins on the Wiki.

[/h3]

[h2]How to get it?[/h2]
Camouflage trophies can be earned with a certain probability after any battle on vehicles rank II or higher, with activity of no less than 50% (except for [Assault] PvE mode). PlayStation and Xbox players can purchase the trophy in the Item Shop and open it with Golden Eagles. Read more on our Wiki.

PC players must purchase a key from the Market to open the trophy, with part of the cost going to the camouflage creators. You can activate a key from the trophy on your account or sell it on the Market for Gaijin Coins — just like the trophy itself.

You can become a creator of user camouflages — check out an updated guide on our wiki! It will bring you both glory and real money as a part of the War Thunder partnership program!
