      I wouldn't be surprised if they love the popularity, though. Gaijin are Russian (nominally Hungarian nowadays) and I believe they have been involved in some scandals involving their country of origin, so it's not impossible to believe that any document leaks would find their way to relevant organisations. Of course, once it goes on the internet, it doesn't matter who owns the forum, and if Russian equipment info leaks, that's not great for them either.

      I seen debris and corpses moved away from the house across my window a week into May, my district got bombed because Jack Teixeira leaked a classified briefing that shown us running out of anti air defenses by May 2023 and where EVERY big system is located.

    After this video was uploaded there have been two more forum posts showing restricted documents, one for the F-117 Nighthawk on September 12th, and one for the AH-64 Apache on September 15th.

    Is if the Documents is real and Classified and they use them in their game it pits the game developers at risk of beig persecuted for treason or the game getting put in the cross hairs of a Government.

Basically they balanced the game progression system and economy on the top 10% of players and if you weren’t then you either had to pay up or spend months-years grinding, by which time the previous best vehicles were already long outdated in the meta.
      I too was disillusioned for a while and while I’ve tepidly returned, I can no longer bring myself to grind, only doing so to be with friends who are still grinding and appreciating the massive quality of life and economy changes that recently happened.

    The thing is that providing documents related to these vehicles on these change request was actually encouraged by Gaijin albeit it was at the time when War Thunder were still stuck in WW2 and Post-War era where pretty much everything about vehicles about those era are just declassified so they are safe to be shared around.
    The problem rises when War Thunder starts to get more and more modern vehicles, we get Gen 2 IR sight, Laser Rangefinder, SACLOS ATGMs, BVR AAMs, etc. and set of new classification like IFVs and MBTs abandoning WW2 armored vehicle classification (though the stat card still calls them Light Tank and Heavy tank).
    Some people still follows Gaijin encouragement to post documents on them unaware to the fact that they are literally commiting high treason.
    With this, Gaijin are free to put Stalinium/Putinium on every Soviet/Russian vehicles which are still in service.

      Most russian games are. The worst of that is Tarkov. Which are pretty openly support russian war against Ukraine and had ppl even touring Donbas with russian troops, illegally crossing Ukrainian border.
      Other developers are less egregious only sponsoring terrorists and spreading russian propaganda by making their units WAY stronger than in reality.
      If you think it's silly remember how many Westerners were sure that Kyiv will fall in 3 days, that Ukraine will never retake Kherson or destroyed S400s in Crimea.

    As for the leaks this year, it’s hilarious that there have been leaks for the Eagle, Felon, and Typhoon considering none of them are in game. The F-16 and MiG-29 were added recently and the MiG-21 has been in game for a long time. I don’t know what’s left for to remain classified about the MiG-21 since it’s been in service for about 60 years and is likely going to leave active service soon.

    You could go watch them testing it constantly when I was younger and you could walk round them as they were kept sometimes behind a chicken wire fence you could actually touch them and there testing ground wasn't fenced off.

    Predictably, the Russian game developers have incorporated an enormous amount of bias for the Russian tech trees into the game. This was proven a few years ago by examination of the games hard code. Russian vehicles have all kinds of hidden modifiers to make them more competitive, like anti-spalling modifiers, angle penetration modifiers, and all kinds of kidden tweaks that make them both more survivable and more deadly. The games volumetric damage system seems custom made to favor Russian vehicles.
    In the air, their aircraft climb faster, turn tighter, and lose energy slower than they did historically.
    I've played the game since 2014, and it's always been like that. Currently, Russian vehicles completely dominate top-tier gameplay. This has become even more egregious since the war in Ukraine began. As always, politics and Russians, are completely inseparable.

    Honestly this is one of those things that is largely misunderstood. Leaking operators manuals which don't require a security clearance to view, and often times military members have stashed away in their garage forgotten. Doesn't constitute leaking "classified information" if this was the case you would see the FBI, CCP, MI6 breaking down people's doors.......which surprise surprise they aren't. These reason they aren't is because most of these manuals are obsolescent and don't pose a security risk. The reason most of these documents haven't received an unclassified designation is largely because no one has requested it through FOIA or other means and the government is rather lazy.

      Can't help but be critical about stats such as this one. It is not like most modern tanks are sent to war on a daily basis. It is not quite a world war situation and so you can keep a tank on the training grounds for 30 years and still call it undefeated.

    Uh two slight corrections;
    1. The challenger 2 is basicly nearly fully retired from brittish service, and the ukraines are the only country that still has it in service..
    2. It's not as good as the leopard or abrams since in ukraine these are the ones being destroyed much more easily and having the biggest risk of having the ammunition killing the tank crew since both the leopard and abrams have a separate section for the ammunition with blowout panels making the crews safe from ammunition hits.
    Also there are tanks of wich are still classified in warthunder thus you need to check your sources a bit closer..

I'd recommend if ever do a video on the topic again ask some War Thunder players or RUclipsrs like Ash, Zoltan Sultan or Iron Armenian I'm sure they'd be more than willing to Collab and help with the video.
