Po-2: the slower you go, the farther you get

Like many successful aircraft, the story of the U-2 (short for ‘training aircraft 2’) began with its engine. In the 1920s, flight crews of the fledgling Soviet Union were training on outdated planes, and the lack of domestic engines forced the country to buy decommissioned engines from abroad. By July 1926, with the development of the excellent domestic M-11 engine, Polikarpov finally had the chance to design a new training aircraft.

History of Chinese Export Tanks

The main arms dealers of the Cold War, the Warsaw Pact and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, primarily designed armored vehicles to meet their own needs. Later, with the increasing demand from foreign customers and the ever-changing development of international science and technology, Chinese engineers had to rethink their approach to developing combat vehicles, leading to the emergence of a unique Chinese school of tank design. Eventually, many technologies developed for foreign customers found their way into vehicles equipped by the People’s Liberation Army as well.

Scandinavian Sharpshooter: How to Play on CV90

It’s no coincidence that the Swedes named their latest IFV ‘Stridsfordon,’ meaning ‘combat vehicle.’ This sleek IFV can fight tanks, destroy aerial targets, survive in the toughest combat conditions and yes, it can also carry infantry. In War Thunder, Stridsfordon and CV90 series vehicles await players at high ranks of the Ground Forces tech tree—and just like their real-life counterparts, they are remarkably capable.
