tfw a vidya game forum is more of a national security risk then most websites lmao

For real

I guess there's a overlap between plays War Thunder and Willing to disseminate military secrets that we really should be taking advantage of

Bit idea: Chinese intelligence agent who suffers from imposter syndrome because his colleagues keep congratulating him on uncovering classified US military documents but in reality he just checks the War Thunder forums twice a week

critical support to war thunder nerds for being some of the largest risks to US security

Warthunder is the best citizen counterintelligence op in existence

I've gotta imagine that this is intentional by now on the part of the developers of this game.

It's not difficult to stop people sharing this content, you could simply block uploads and external URLs on the forum.

They don't do this because they like that this provides publicity for their game. It is excellent marketing.

"Don't worry, it's completely secure, I made sure they couldn't edit it!"

The comments suggest this manual is publicly available and this is indeed not classified information. It might be ITAR restricted, but thats a long shot from classified

Okay maybe I'm too paranoid but the wording and tone of that sentence sounds way too fake oblivious and enthusiastic

I genuinely believe this is an op to trick foreign states into believing the Typhoon DA7 is worse than it actually is with the fake manual
