My pet theory is that the military uses the war thunder forums as a honeypot to catch leakers.

Isn’t that the general theory?

I like when it’s to win an argument. But it seems it wasn’t the case here?

And the game is far from a simulator. That’s what I don’t get. Like if it was steel beasts or arma or dcs it’d make sense to me.

But war of duty. I just don’t get

They can’t keep doing this!

Well, I just checked, the US military has over one million active personnel, and if 1% of them are dumb, and 1% of that are especially dumb, that’s still over a hundred people. So if a few of them play War Thunder… yup.
