We are introducing new vehicles of the Update 1.63 "Desert Hunters". Make sure to read the vehicles devblog for more informations. 

We are pleased to present to you the Royal Air Force successor of the well-known Bristol Beaufighter. The Bristol Brigand that will arrive in Update 1.63 Desert Hunters in the designated B.1 bomber variant.

Charging iron beasts replaced battle chariots, and there, where the stones of slingshots cracked and arrows shot out in a wicked swarm, tank shells now fly to their targets with a sinister whistle. The new Sinai map awaits desert hunters in War Thunder update 1.63!

Pardon sire, would you mind looking at this wonderful piece of machinery over here? It is the Vickers A1E1 Independent - an influential multi-turreted interwar tank design built by British engineers.

A combination of heavy half-track and 88 mm Flak cannon? Does that sound odd? Not if German engineering has anything to do with it! Let us introduce, the 8.8cm Flak 37 (Sf.) auf s. Zgkw. 18t

It's difficult to imagine an aircraft of the Second World War that exceeds the size of the American B-29 Superfortress strategic bomber or the Japanese H6K Crocodile. But now we have a new record-breaker!

It is time to introduce the first post-war German Self Propelled Anti-aircraft gun in the game. Welcome the Flugabwehrkanonenpanzer Gepard - a deadly anti-aircraft defence tool with twinned 35mm autocannons.

Yet another legendary anti-aircraft gun is coming to War Thunder – the Soviet four-barrel, self-propelled anti-aircraft weapon system the ZSU-23-4 Shilka.

We are pleased to present a new air battle map in War Thunder, which we've titled Greece. Close combat amid labyrinths of cliffs in a colorful Mediterranean landscape? Boom and zoom from out of the clouds? This has all that, again and again! Clear prop!

When you hear "Cougar" you imagine a predatory animal - a mountain lion, puma, panther or wildcat. From now on, the first thing you think about will be the brand new US Navy jet fighter for War Thunder!

With a stabilized cannon, add-on armour and an additional machine gun, the Leopard A1A1 will become the new crown jewel among the German post-war vehicles. Panzer – Hurrah!

Anticipated by many, the FV 438 Swingfire is the first non-premium ATGM-equipped vehicle in the British lineup. This fast, nimble - but hard-hitting - armoured vehicle will surely be favourite amongst the Queen’s loyal subjects.

Today we are pleased to present the Japanese answer to American Thunderbolts and Super Fortresses! Meet the Ki-87 - The high altitude interceptor!

The advanced Soviet Su-6 attack plane, found itself in the shadow of its world-famous colleague, the Il-2. Nonetheless, it was an excellent assault aircraft that we are pleased to present in War Thunder update 1.63 "Desert Hunters".

Brrrrrrrrrrrrt - yes, if you already recognize this gunfire, you know something special is coming. It is the sound of a hydraulically-driven, six-barrelled, 20mm Vulcan minigun that can fire up to 3,000 rounds per minute! We present to you the M163 Vulcan SPAAG.

We are pleased to present another hero of War Thunder naval warfare: the heavily armed American PT-810 torpedo boat.

The German Schnellboots – fast torpedo boats – became a symbol of Germany’s naval superiority in several seas and, of course, in the English Channel. We’re here to tell you about one of those boats today.

The Japanese Type 11 PT-15 patrol torpedo boat is the first ship we would like to present from the Japanese naval tech tree. Let's take a closer look at it.
