In October, 76 years ago, the Me 262 A-1a/U1 first flew. It was a variant of the Me 262 jet fighter equipped with 6 cannons: 2x 20 mm, 2x 30 mm (MK 108), and 2x 30 mm (MK 103). In April 1945, German ace Heinz Bär flew the aircraft and shot down several P-47 Thunderbolts. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ej9nkIXWsAAW4Bx.jpg

Killing a fly with a sledgehammer 😬 http://pbs.twimg.com/ext_tw_video_thumb/1314587275087486979/pu/img/lTni9GOqv1UJ91rC.jpg

The Pulkzerstörer is a bit wonky, but a 50mm shell to the face is still a 50mm shell to the face 😊 http://pbs.twimg.com/ext_tw_video_thumb/1447142992616337410/pu/img/zdA0vrYXwkHjPDZv.jpg

@On2kSo Well duh

In 1938, 83 years ago, the Ki-10-II C made its first flight. The Ki-10-II C was the last biplane fighter in Japanese service. It saw combat during the Second Sino-Japanese War and the Battles of Khalkhin Gol, outperforming enemy aircraft due to its excellent manoeuvrability. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/FBWYexFX0AAOqGK.jpg

We released a patch fixing the heavy FPS drop that sometimes occurred in ground battles. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/FetHXDyXEAEaAsZ.jpg

Plans for the J2M5 (30 mm) were made in 1944, 78 years ago. This variant of the J2M5 differed from the standard model with its 2x Type 5 30 mm cannon armament. However, this lethal aircraft never went into production due to US bombing raids and subsequent material shortages. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/FeuUT33X0AAXQKw.jpg

@BleachTravis Our developers & network expert are working non-stop to get those server issues behind us. As for the sentient snail behind this twitter account, he's not a network expert ;)

@ace_262 I've seen a player land (ok, "soft land") a B-17 on a cruiser ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@Tofous_ Expert vehicles! And... maps! Taking risks, big reveal right there.
