War Thunder Prepares for Flight with "Firebirds" Update

War Thunder's "Firebirds" Update Soars In With New Aircraft and More!

Gaijin Entertainment has just announced the upcoming "Firebirds" update for War Thunder, arriving in early November. This major update boasts a wealth of new additions, including highly anticipated aircraft, ground vehicles, and warships.

New Aircraft Take Flight

Prepare for takeoff with iconic additions like the stealthy American F-117A Nighthawk, the powerful Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber, and the formidable F-15E Strike Eagle. Let's take a closer look:

• F-117A Nighthawk: War Thunder's first stealth aircraft, the F-117A utilizes unique design and materials to evade radar and infrared detection. Its angular shape deflects radar waves, while radar-absorbing materials and specialized paint further enhance its stealth capabilities. Its legendary performance in Operation Desert Storm, completing over 1,200 sorties without loss, speaks volumes.

• F-15E Strike Eagle: This upgraded F-15 variant packs a powerful punch. Boasting a 50% larger payload than its predecessor, it features a ground target detection radar and a diverse arsenal. Expect to wield AGM-65 Maverick missiles, laser-guided bombs, JDAMs, and even the GBU-39 satellite-guided bombs (20 at a time!). Its inclusion highlights its importance as a key U.S. Air Force strike aircraft.

Beyond the Skies: Ground and Naval Forces

The "Firebirds" update doesn't stop with aircraft. New ground and naval reinforcements include the agile British FV107 Scimitar light tank and the imposing French Dunkerque battleship, adding further depth to the gameplay experience.

Aces High Season Continues

The current Aces High season is also underway, offering unique vehicles to unlock, along with various trophies and rewards for Battle Pass completion. Expect to encounter aircraft such as the Bf 109 G-14, F2G-1, and La-11, along with powerful platoons like the T54E2 and G6, and ships including the HMS Orion and USS Billfish.
