Meet the American Helldiver dive bomber in service with the Royal Thai Air Force, joining the game as the aircraft reward in The Last Legionnaire Battle Pass season!
SB2C-5: A Premium Dive Bomber for Japan at Rank III
At a glance:
- Excellent range of bombs.
- Decent maneuverability.
- 20 mm offensive guns.
- Air brake.
The SB2C-5 was the last production variant of the Curtiss Helldiver two-seat carrier-based dive bomber. The aircraft was produced in both the U.S. and Canada under license during the final stages of World War II, however did not have time to participate in combat over the Pacific Ocean. In the post-war period, the SB2C-5 modification was actively exported, including to Thailand, where they were used during the suppression of the uprising in the north of the country during the 1950s.
Introducing the SB2C-5!
In The Last Legionnaire, a brand-new Battle Pass season, you’ll have the opportunity to get the excellent SB2C-5 premium dive bomber, well known to you if you’ve played the US or French aviation tree. This aircraft is an invaluable assistant in Ground Battles and a classic in War Thunder Air Battles, so let’s take a look!
The SB2C-5 dive bomber is going to offer an excellent choice of bombs for Japan at rank III. There’s two types of torpedoes, rockets, machine gun pods, and most importantly 250 to 1000 lb bombs (high-explosive) and 1000 to 1600 lb armor-piercing bombs. As for guns, the SB2C-5 features two 20 mm autocannons in the wings with a total of 400 rounds. These guns play an important role in tackling enemy aircraft especially at the lower ranks and make this aircraft a worthy choice in any game mode. Despite this, ultimately this aircraft is best in Ground Battles, where it will still be capable of taking out lightly armored vehicles with the cannons!
Despite having a poor rate of climb and lower maximum speed, the SB2C-5 still has the advantage of spawning in the air in Air Battles thanks to its class as a bomber. This allows it to gain sufficient speed to dive on enemy AI ground targets, also being able to use the air brake to avoid ripping the wings. With minimal maneuvering, the SB2C-5’s speed can be maintained for quite a long time, or you can utilize its decent maneuverability, choosing to hunt other bombers and attack aircraft instead of going for ground targets.
The Last Legionnaire Battle Pass season starts on January 22nd and very soon we’ll be letting you know about the other rewards coming in this season. Keep an eye out for that!
Please note that this vehicle’s characteristics may be changed before it is added to the game.

Comments will be premoderatedWhat happened to unique vehicles?
Unique vehicles are better suited for being tech tree, unless they're some obscure prototype from something we already have.
Great copy-paste from the French tech tree!
USA it from
Paddy011, The C-5 is not in the US tree (US got C-1C and C-4) ! Close enough as a copy-paste though !
B-but we already got Homare...
Disappointing
I hope we will get 3 vehicles again at the very leаst, because otherwise this may be the sаddest battlepass so far. I am disаppointed with you Gajin
Ive been liking the catchup coupons
Making Japan CAS competent, one copy and paste at a time!
another low effort battle pass with copy paste vehicles. what happend to actual unqiue vehicles. poor effort gaijin maybe next time listen to your playerbase and help improve the battle pass rather than recycling old models as "new" vehicles.
Thank you Gaijin, for yet another low effort copy and paste vehicle with different roundels, that you want people to pay for. All the while reducing BP rewards. What happened to the first few battle passes with several vehicles that were actually unique?
Helldiver!? Glory to Super Earth o7
Right attitude!...wrong game :)
ah...another copy-paste.
