Thermal & NVD Finder

Filter the cached fleet for thermals or night vision by nation and BR window.

    How to use this tool

    Thermals and IR devices come from public game-file datamines. Generation labels (GEN1/GEN2/…) are shown when present — resolution and crew station still matter in-game.

    Filter the WT Charts fleet for thermals or night-vision devices by nation, BR window, and optional thermal generation labels from the datamine.

    • Narrow the BR window to your lineup.
    • Gunner vs commander thermals are listed on the vehicle page.

    Find War Thunder thermals and NVD

    Toggle thermal vs NVD tabs, set nation and BR, and optionally require GEN1/GEN2/GEN3 strings when present on gunner or commander devices. Generation labels come from the public cache — resolution and crew station still matter in-game.

    Use this when shopping mid-tier premiums or researching a tree specifically for night fights. Open vehicle pages for the raw thermal device map.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is GEN3 always better?
    Usually higher generation helps, but station (gunner vs commander) and map/weather matter. We do not score “thermal quality” subjectively.
    Why is a known thermal tank missing?
    It may be outside your BR filter, unsynced, or flagged differently upstream.

    Limitations

    • • Does not rate thermal resolution subjectively.
    • • Event / hidden vehicles may be incomplete upstream.
