Grumman Aircraft
There are precious few aircraft designers that started their career by making biplanes and finished it making supersonic jets… but there are even fewer engineers that got their foot in the door by designing naval biplanes and made it to supersonic carrier-based fighter jets. Spoiler: there’s only one such engineer, and his name was Leroy Grumman.

Special
Happy Anniversary War Thunder!
We celebrate a wonderful date - November the 1st is the 10 year anniversary of War Thunder!
Dreams come true: Sturmtiger
The 38cm Sturmmörser commonly known as the “Sturmtiger” is a German SPG from WWII built on the chassis of the Tiger heavy tank. It is a specialized SPG for city battles: its 380mm cannon is excellent for destroying buildings and fortified points but when fighting against other vehicles, it has low accuracy and a long reload time. It may be difficult to hit anything with it, but if you succeed, your enemy will be in trouble - everyone will envy such a caliber!
