Thunder Show: Double Double Kill

Hi! Welcome to Thunder Show and the best moments of the past week! This episode’s fighters don’t seem to know what “sensible” means, like at all. The enemy’s out of sights? Or maybe a couple ranks above you? Or maybe even turned your vehicle into a colander already? Nah, they’re not getting away anyway!

Skink: The Bird-eating Lizard

The Skink is an experimental Canadian self-propelled anti-aircraft unit, developed on the basis of the Grizzly medium tank. Designed with the sole purpose of shielding Allied units from hostile air attack, the highly anticipated Skink is finally making its way to the game, arriving as part of the next major War Thunder update!

Aircraft engine fire extinguishers

In the upcoming major War Thunder update, we plan to introduce the engine fire extinguishing systems for planes and helicopters.

Best Shermans

The M4 Sherman was the workhorse tank of the US Army during WW2, and one of the most produced tanks in history. It performed really well in any theatres of war it was involved in, and its variants remained an effective counter to the German armour till the very end of the war. All in all, almost 50,000 Shermans rolled off the factory floor. Furthermore, in War Thunder, the Sherman is one of the most widely used vehicles, with almost every nation having at least a single variant of the iconic tank at their disposal. So today we’re talking about the Shermans.

Thunder Show: FWD: Incoming!

Hi! Welcome to Thunder Show and the best moments of the past week! This episode is about accepting your fate. You can’t control everything in battle.

Still, there’s no point in giving up too soon: victory might be closer than you think.
