    If you’re a Russian spy op you don’t give a shit about using classified docs for improving the game, and once you trick an idiot into giving up classified docs why wouldn’t you cooperate with authorities. It’s not like you give a shit about some dumbass US airman or that you don’t keep copies. If the they didn’t cooperate they wouldn’t have a chance at getting the next 15 leaks after the first one. You would have to be a fucking idiot to not cooperate and keep the classified docs rolling.

    I’m not saying you’re wrong, I’m saying the logic you used to come to that conclusion is deeply flawed.

      The reason the statement to not use them for game design purposes matters is that that is often the reason users post the documents. They’d have likely provoked more leaks if they’d stayed silent on that (even though it should be quite obvious).

      Though also regardless of what gaijins intentions are, I’m sure at this point russia has someone watching new war thunder forum posts 24/7.
