Meet the “Firebirds” Major Update!

Meet Firebirds, War Thunder’s second to last 2024 major update!

F-15E’s CAS Arsenal

We talked about the F-15’s suspended armament in our previous episodes, but our game now features a strike version of it that enjoys a wider choice of close air support weapons. Today we’d like to talk about the best loadouts for the American F-15E Strike Eagle and the Israeli F-15I Ra’am.

Pages of History: Air Force Lighter

Germany started the Second World War with no heavy combat aircraft at hand. Still, they’d been trying to build a long-range bomber capable of reaching targets in Great Britain and the Soviet Union since 1934. After a few unsuccessful attempts, the He-177 Greif took to the skies on November 19, 1939.

KV-7: Triple Strike

In the early history of tanks, engineers would often use layouts with multiple cannons to improve the total firepower. But the recent War Thunder addition stands out even among those designs since it has no less than three barrels side by side! We’re talking about a Soviet heavy tank destroyer, the KV-7.

Thunder Show: ASSAULT GEOMETRY

Hi! Welcome to Thunder Show and the most beautiful moments of the past week. Today we’d like to talk about dreams. Ambition. Sometimes they’re good to have, sometimes not so much. And of course, we’ll talk about unrecognized genius. Let’s get started!

Small Gun, Big Targets: How to Play on Vehicles with the ‘Soviet Mauler’

The AZP-57 gun is well-known to War Thunder players as the main armament of several Soviet anti-air vehicles and light tanks. The roar of the ‘Soviet mauler’ is unforgettable — whether you’re an enemy pilot or a tanker. Today, we’ll tell you how to unlock its full potential.
