Players who surprised us in June

We are happy to introduce the very original top-5 players from the previous month. Unusual achievements you could never think of. Every one of these players is extremely good in his own way on gaining victory - or at least trying to do so.

Macchi C.205N2 Orione - “Rome’s Shooting Star”

The Orione (Orion) was a further development of the C.205V Veltro, intended to be one of Italy’s true next generation fighters and introduced to War Thunder in update 1.69.

Independence Day

On behalf of the War Thunder staff we would like to say Happy Birthday America, and wish all our US players the best of this day of festivities.
