The iconic Japanese dive bomber of the WWII era with a new engine and Premium bonuses!
B7A2 (Homare 23), naval aircraft/torpedo bomber, Japan, rank III. Premium.
Features:
- More powerful engine
- Good maneuverability
- 800 kg bomb
The Aichi B7A Ryusei carrier-based bomber was under the Imperial Navy program of 1941, but Aichi was able to start mass production only in 1944. Due to the lack of aircraft carriers suitable for its deployment, the aircraft operated mainly from ground airfields. It was also used for kamikaze missions. During testing, one B7A2 was supposedly equipped with the Homare 23 engine, a modified version of the N1K2’s Homare 21, instead of the default Homare 12, to compensate for the shortage of engines. Together with the experimental model, a total of 105 units of the B7A2 were produced.
The main aircraft prize in the new season of the War Thunder Battle Pass “Armour Breaking Ambusher” will be the Japanese B7A2 Ryusei piston-engined, a carrier-based torpedo bomber with a new Homare 23 engine.
The B7A2 has a reputation of fast and agile aircraft for its class, making it very comfortable to carry out dive or level bombing. Unlike most bombers, the B7A2 even allows its pilot to engage in dogfights with enemy heavy fighters, and a pair of forward-firing 20mm cannons give good chances in confrontation with other aircraft.
The experimental B7A2 (Homare 23) received a slight increase in flight performance thanks to the new engine, especially with the maximum bomb load.
By the way, about the payload. Like the researchable modification, the B7A2 (Homare 23) is capable of carrying two 250kg bombs along with smaller bombs on the wings, or one 800 kg bomb, which is especially handy in mixed battles. The B7A2 (Homare 23) is a torpedo bomber and can be used in naval battles carrying a single Type 91 model 3 torpedo.
Being a Premium aircraft, the B7A2 (Homare 23) will have access to all weapon presets upon receiving and will provide a good boost to research of the Japanese aviation of early and medium ranks.
The new season of the War Thunder Battle Pass “Armour Breaking Ambusher” is coming soon - stay tuned for more details!

Comments will be premoderatedWell, it would be too optimistic to expect more than one non-clone vehicle from BP anyway.
If it's not "boohoo, another cloned vehicle", it's "why is something unique behind a paywall and not in the tech tree?!?!?!!111" ...
we literally got 2 non clones this seasson , lame ones but non clones
nice to see japan get something in the BP, adding something new for once
something NEW? lol
Yes, Japan needs more good vehicles. I like this addition. :)
hey yall were so close making a come back with the battlepasses but what can you do when you are obligated to do atleast 1 copy and paste vehicle
This won't even be $1 on the market.
If you want to get technically, it isn't a copy-paste, it is a single production model of the Aichi B7A Ryusei fitted with a 1,491 kW Nakajima Homare 23 radial engine instead of a 1,340 kW Nakajima Homare 12
Honestly I'm sorta fine with this. It's not great, it doesn't impress me, I don't love it, but I quite enjoy the B7A2 and the B7A2 is really good so this will be a decent enough prize.
Well-said, IMO.
WW2? Japanese? Doesn’t take away from the main TT? Sign me up Please more Japanese vehicles next update
Agreed 100%
Can we get another rank 4 air major prize for once? This is the 12th Battle Pass, 10 of them have had the top prize (and only rank 5/4) as a tank..... Meanwhile the only 2 times it has been an aircraft, it has been a strike aircraft.... A rank 4 main prize fighter or something would be nice... there are plenty of early armed jets, or late superprops that are not in the game that could be added....
Would be fantastic.
Looks funny but cool
bleah could have been better..
This battlepass is great. Love it so far
Great to see something Japanese
