For the third time this month, gamers have leaked restricted military documents on the war thunder forums. This time it's the manual to the Apache helicopter which was supposed to be for the DoD only. Earlier this month, a user leaked part of the manual to the F-117 Nighthawk's flight manual. War Thunder's dedication to realism is its Achilles heal as players often resort to leaking classified documents in order to settle online arguments… which has happened at least 13 times.

I can just imagine two guys arguing one going “the Apache helicopter has a Boeing 30mm M230 chain gun” and the other going “nuh-uh it has a Northrop sky viper” then the first one goes “oh yeah” *hacks the government and leaks the apaches documents* “see I told you”
Putin: 👹
lol NO PLZ JUST ADD IT IN GAME I HAVE THE DOCS RIGHT HERE!! PLZ JUST ADD IT hahahahah
War Thunder Gamers are the best of getting classified documents than the KGB and FBI
war thunder player trying not to leak classified documents 😨
“THEY CAN’T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS!!!”
I think we’re missing the main point, gamers have classified documents
Unsurprisingly people in the military also play video games…. like come on half of those guys joined after 9/11 because they thought Call of Duty was cool.
LESSS GOOOOOOOO
lmao
Not even their fault how tf is our security this bad😭
CIA, GRU, R&AW, MOSSAD, MI6 are overrated and over funded, we need War Thunder Players
“no you’re wrong, the helicopter wouldn’t be able to do that”
Proceeds to leak the entire manual of the helicopter
I’m so proud to be a war thunder player, it’s been 5 years now 😅
It was the Ah 1Z
At this point the military is better of hiring these people like goddamn
At this point they do it for sport
Not again
Guy 1: I bet you that that button is for
rockets
Guy 2: I bet it’s not
Guy 1: imma hack into the cia real quick and steal the manual so I can prove it
GOD WHY ARE THEY SO FUCKING STUPID WHAT DO THEY HOPE TO GAIN??? “look I broke the law for epic pixels!!!”
Bruh I just wanna play War Thunder in peace, they’re putting the game in jeopardy with all that need to win arguments.
When the system you created to train future soldiers backfires. 😮😮😅
BRO STOPPPPP
It’s not accidental, gamers are prime targets for military recruiters, to the extent that Defence puts free versions of games on the web to track gamers. Gamers also supply a ready venue to test everything from training to tactics to weapon combinations. Be sure the leaks are “guided” by the military.
Um the f117 was declassified ,if memory serves me right there is even a sim with a huge manual (not putting my hand in fire for it’s accuracy however)
I love War Thunder players
then stop letting them leak or cancel the game it stops being funny when some nerd gives away bs that shouldn’t be in a game
LETS GO BOYS
XDDD
that awkward moment when you apply for a govt. job and they ask, “Do you or anyone you know play the online game _”War Thunder”_ ?
Don’t argue with gamers of reddit, they’ll hack military secrets to prove theyre right lol
You’re welcome
Looks like warthunder should be cancelled, there literally weakening the country’s protection.
Over a stupid game iv never even heard of until now
Let’s be honest. If players are able to leak classified documents to win arguments, then they aren’t very classified.
Even the game devs said “DO NOT POST GOVERNMENT CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS!!” They know their players will do anything to prove a point, and now even Minecraft players are starting to get into it too (yeah I’m looking at you “Thug Shaker Central”)
Fuck its the warthunder player base again.
At this point it’s getting stupid I myself play warthunder and I really do hope people realize that doing that means you are going to jail so you just threw away your life by doing that
Typical day at gaijin hq
Imagine realeasing documents on a almost 50yo aircraft
How are they able to get information like that 13 times
Someone started spamming documents in discord because of how I disliked a tank and how bad it is
As a WarThunder player I agree
Threats to national security: Chinese hackers, Russian hackers, War Thunder players.
Classic war thunder

Holy fuck War Thunder players are based.
