War Thunder Update 2.59.0.49 Fixes Ships, Wheels, and Bombing Markers

War Thunder's update 2.59.0.49, published on 6 October 2026, is a compact patch that leans heavily on bug fixes with one concrete addition for aircraft.

What changed

Aircraft

• The Tempest Mk II and Tempest Mk V both gain separate bomb drop capability, sourced from A.P. 2458B Pilot's Notes for Tempest II - Centaurus V Engine.

Ground vehicles

• A bug causing wheeled vehicles to shake after losing all wheels on one side has been fixed.

Naval

• A camera alignment bug — triggered by entering ADS while holding the mouse-look key — has been resolved.
• Ships no longer roll toward the catapult side after deploying a scout plane.

Locations and missions

• Aircraft carriers now move from the map edge toward the center on all air combat maps where they appear.
• A level-of-detail bug in Southeastern City that caused building models to vanish at distance has been corrected.

Interface

• Bombing target markers no longer shift position when viewed from the cockpit or a targeting pod.

The Tempest addition gives pilots of those two aircraft a meaningful tactical option, while the carrier movement change affects map positioning across every air combat map that features them — a quiet but broadly felt adjustment.
