Has anyone dropped a nuke yet?

[Starred109]

With the new update, you now have the chance to instantly win a match by dropping a nuke on the map, killing all enemy players. Since I'm only at tier 2 (gonna be 3 soon), has anyone dropped the nuke yet? If so, what were the reactions of the enemy team?

That's not really a thing is it? I thought that was a joke....

You need 20 kills without dying lol It's incredibly unlikely in War Thunder that'll happen given kill cam etc. I've seen it on YouTube, it just ends the game, nothing special.

It's only possible in Ground RB. To my understanding, in any match above 6.0 in BR. You need to get 20 kills, after which you'll get a icon in your hotbar with a radiation symbol. Clicking that will spawn you in a B-29 and allow you to drop the nuke. The game will end instantly when the nuke blows up (slightly above the ground), with all players having their perspectives moved into the statistic tab, in which the explosion can be seen in the background.

is it really 20 kills? i did get the radiation symbol on my bomber call in when messing around in arcade recently but had no idea what it was or try calling it in, i was on a significant streak certainly but im pretty sure i hadnt hit 20. Where on the patch notes is this because i certainly hadnt heard of it

Can the requirements be lowered by scouting like the other airspawns, or does it NEED to be a 20 killstreak?

i too am a tier 2 going to be three

[michaelthered]

You mean ground AB. It's not in realistic mode.

Yeah, shouldn't it be AB?

As others said, its 6.0BR higher and 20 kills, which is rough in arcade because it tells you where you can pen, so its unlikely you'll get the streak with 1 or 2 tanks. Basically the match has to be a landslide one way, into a reverse land slide to drag it out and you need enough vehicles (and enemy vehicles to get it). Fairly RNG based.

"A variant of a bomber with a nuclear weapon has been added to air events in ground battles at a BR of 6.0-7.0. This option is already available in battles with a BR of 7.3 or higher. In order to use it you need to destroy 20 enemy player controlled vehicles in a single battle."

by the time you get 20 kills i doubt there are many enemies left anyway

Thats basically it. You need the perfect combination of luck and 3rd party factoris, like the enemy bringing out multiple vehicles and your own team mates letting you kill steal and hog all the kills. lol

I dropped a nuke in the toilet, just about killed everyone in the house

Seen player with 16 kills in AB once and thought that was remarkable. I suppose someone should buy a lottery ticket the day they can achieve 20 kills.

I got 16 once in some t34 I think the name is, 13 first kills at least, then 3 more with another. Enemy just lined up on some bridge and I could pick them off. No skill, no tank player. Just lucky positioning.
