US Navy Birthday
On October 13th, 1775, at the very beginning of the American Revolutionary War, the Continental Congress passed a resolution to create a Navy whose goal was to attack British ships near the American coastline. This first fleet was disbanded after the war, but the date remained in history, and now, while the US Navy is the largest in the entire world, it celebrates its birthday on October 13th.

IL-2: Flying tank
The battles of WW2 made dozens of combat vehicles into legends. Tankers achieved insane feats on their Shermans, T-34s and Panthers, while the skies were set ablaze by mighty Mustangs and Spitfires. But one iconic vehicle of that era is standing out even in this extraordinary company. We’re talking, of course, about the Il-2 Shturmovik, the most-produced military aircraft in history.

Tactics: Tigers
The Tiger heavy tank is one of the symbols of the Wehrmacht. This massive vehicle, with its sturdy armour and a deadly gun, left quite an impression on people – especially when it made its debut on the frontlines. As you know, Tigers were unable to save Germany from defeat, but the work of German engineers had a lasting impact on the global tank industry. Naturally, Tiger tanks are available in War Thunder as well; they can be found at Rank III and Rank IV of the Ground forces tech tree. Today we’re going to talk about the ways you can unlock the full potential of these tanks!
