Update 2.1.16
Update 2.1.16

On September 28, from 17:00 to 21:00 JST, the servers will undergo maintenance to deploy Update 2.1.16.

Update from the previous version: SD—20.25 MB, HD—61.19 MB (in addition to SD).

New Aircraft

Update 2.1.16 introduces a brand-new reward aircraft:

  •  Junkers Ju 87 D-5 Stuka

This is the iconic Stuka dive-bomber carrying a 1,000 kg bomb. By trading the 37-mm cannons of the researchable Ju 87 G for less powerful 20-mm ones, it gained the ability to wipe out ground objects in one strike frequently and consistently.

To earn it, you'll need to participate in the upcoming game event.

New Paint Schemes

We added a new Halloween-themed paint scheme for the  Lavochkin La-9 and  Lavochkin La-9RD. It gives +5% bonus to aircraft XP.

Also, new paint schemes have been made for the following aircraft:

Paint scheme characteristics:

  • Concealment: +20%
  • Resistance to damage from AA guns: +10%
  • Resistance to damage from gunners: +5%
  • Aircraft XP: +8%

These paint schemes will become available in future Premium Shop offers and as rewards during game events.

New Emblems

Several new memorable emblems have been added to the game:

  • Halloween 2022
  • Thanksgiving Day 2022
  • World of Warplanes Anniversary 2022

New Unique Pilot

We added a new unique American pilot—Elise Clark. Details on her specialization and unique skills will be available at a later date.

Fixes and Improvements

  • Fixed the display of the Magpie Supply Crate description in the game client.
  • Fixed the display of boosters in various in-game menus.
  • Fixed the Premium paint scheme for the Junkers Ju 88 P, based on historical information and player feedback.
  • Modified the icon for Mastery skills of unique German pilots.
