Introducing War Thunder Wiki 3.0!

The War Thunder Wiki is a fantastic place to learn all the details about vehicles and game mechanics, enhancing your knowledge of War Thunder and military vehicles in general. Today, we’re proud to release Wiki 3.0, coming in with brand-new features and layout that provide a better experience for everyone.

Book of Records: Aircraft Engines

Since the dawn of aviation, the power plant has always been a key component of any aircraft. Sometimes, engineers would even design not an engine for a plane, but a plane for an engine — like with the very first jet fighters. Today, we’re here to tell you about the most outstanding aircraft engines in our game.

It’s fixed! №99

Today, we’ll be going over the bug fixes and improvements that we’ve made to the game over the past week following the Firebirds update. Let’s take a look!

Flight of the Vulture: IAR-93B

The IAR-93B is a Romanian attack aircraft and is the main reward in the Flight of the Vulture aircraft event that started today!

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.
