Chinese Air and Ground Forces - Become a tester!
Attention! Outdated news format. Content may not display correctly.
A large army needs a major debut! China’s aviation and armoured vehicles arrive in War Thunder! We are beginning the closed beta testing.
During CBT the possibility to research and purchase the Chinese vehicles will be limited. Players that achieve a status of tester or purchase the packs specific to this CBT will be able to research and purchase new vehicles.
How to become a tester
From 11:00 GMT on the 11th of September until 11:00 GMT on the 20th of October.
Get 12 “Tester stars” of one of the forces types to get unlimited access to the Chinese research tree in aviation or ground vehicles. You can obtain 1 star per day for each force type (ground and air).
“Tester star” for tankers
- Win 5 times with a game activity of 60% or higher whilst controlling ground vehicles of rank III-VII.
“Tester star” for pilots
- Win 5 times with a game activity of 60% or higher whilst flying aircraft of rank III-VI.
For example, by getting 12 “Tester stars” for pilots in the “Chinese aviation CBT” you will get access to the research and purchase of all Chinese aircraft.

why test vehicles that have been in the game for years? like...they only have a few things to test at most, it doesnt make any sense
Ah yes, become a tester for stuff we already have in every other tree just with a shittier coat of paint? yes please! Fuck off gaijin, remove the chinese and give their unique shit to the soviets, every other tree is already infested with garbage copy pasted shit.
amen
When have Chinese army used cold war US tanks that belong to Taiwan army??? We can't have German tanks but Chinese tree can have tanks that they never have own or used.
I'll have to pass on this one. Sorry, Gaijin.
I for one am actually looking forward to flying for china, as I like their aircraft
Good news! You can just play the US or USSR nations, and fly them RIGHT NOW, without having to grind to become a tester :)
igeticsu, ya but with china you get the best of both trees in one tree
"tester" I have to pay for .... what a joke lol
no, but you should learn to read.
Neat. The ability to get the same vehicles twice. I am excited to be borderline dropping out of the game entirely.
What a racket. "PAY $20 TO ACCESS HALF OF THIS NEW NATION THAT HAS ALMOST NO ORIGINAL VEHICLES!"
Those forum badges look very nice, I will be sure to get both
"Chinese Air and Ground Forces - Become a tester!" - No You! )))
