An export version of the Freedom Fighter in service with the United States Air Force will become one of the main prizes of the “Export Order” crafting event!

The F-5A in service with the US Air Force will become the top event jet fighter in the American aviation research tree as the main prize for the participants of the upcoming crafting event “Export Order”. Since the introduction of the F-5A into the ranks of Chinese aviation, the Freedom Fighter has established itself as difficult to learn, but very interesting to play. Both Chinese and American F-5A’s will be equipped with countermeasures - a flares/chaff mounting and a radar warning receiver.

In 1909, the United States Military purchased its first aircraft. Through WWI and WWII, the importance of controlling airspace on the battlefield had grown significantly being used in every aspect of war and peacetime use. In 1947, the need for a formalized branch of service to be established to further the development and deployment of America’s Air Forces was seen as vital to modernization and organization efforts. Today we salute the USAF on their 74th Birthday! The USAF today continues to meet the highest standards possible, producing many of the finest pilots the world has ever seen.

Until 07:00 GMT on the 20th of September,
play 3 battles with an in-game activity of 70% or higher in random battles while flying US aircraft of rank II or higher and
get a unique “U.S. AIR FORCE” decal in honor of U.S. Air Force Day.

Improvements
  • A warning message when the BR of the squad player’s vehicles differs from the BR of the squad leader’s vehicles has been added when queuing.
  • Display of the actual BR of a player’s vehicles or squad’s vehicles in the queue window has been improved. The numbers are now more visible.

HMS Mohawk, a Tribal-class destroyer, comes as one of the prizes of the “Export order” craft event!

In our game, the destroyer Mohawk will become a premium British ship at rank II in the bluewater fleet tech tree, and you will be able to get her by participating in the upcoming Export Order game event. War Thunder fleet commanders are already familiar with the Tribal-class destroyers from the very able destroyer Eskimo. The main advantage of the entire class is the multiple main calibre, which on the Mohawk is represented by eight 120mm guns in four gun mounts. Tribal destroyers feature a fairly large ammunition capacity for the main guns, consisting of semi-armour-piercing and several types of high-explosive fragmentation shells, including those with a remote fuse. At the same time, the main guns have a go... Read more

On the 15th of September, 1940, over one and a half thousand experienced pilots from Great Britain with some of its friends and Germany entered battle in the skies over Southern England! This battle became a turning point in the attempts of the German command to completely destroy the Royal Air Force.

Great Britain withstood this battle, and to this day, every 15th September, the Allied nations and the whole world remember this heroic feat and commemorate "Battle of Britain day".

Until 07:00 GMT on the 17th of September. Participate in 3 battles using British aircraft of rank II or higher (with an in-game activity of at least 70%) and get the “Battle of Britain Memorial Flight” badge.
