The de Havilland Sea Vixen is considered one of the most bizarre-looking aircraft ever employed by the Royal Navy, with an asymmetric side-by-side cockpit, no cannon armament, and a twin-boom design. In War Thunder, the Sea Vixen is one of the first examples many players will experience gunless jet combat with, and it introduces a completely new playstyle that throws the fundamentals of early jet combat out the window.

By the mid-1930s, Europe was once again caught up in an arms race. Before long, it spread to other parts of the world as well. The United States could not remain on the sidelines either. Events in Europe and Asia were making it increasingly clear that geographic isolation alone was no guarantee of security.

We’ve already seen plenty of strange military mashups in War Thunder. You’d think experiments like these would’ve been left somewhere in the distant past. But no! European engineers decided to combine two modern MBTs: the German Leopard 2A7 and the French Leclerc S2. And that’s how the EMBT was born. So what came out of this Franco-German tank-building set? Let’s find out.

The Ratel ZT3 is a South African tank destroyer in the British tech tree. It is part of the Ratel family of fighting vehicles, a series of 6-wheeled IFVs developed to replace the obsolete Alvis Saracen APC in South African service. The Ratel ZT3 is a later variant of the Ratel platform fitted with the turret that houses a 7.62mm Browning MG4 machine gun and ZT3 ATGMs. With a top speed of 65 mph and the ability to carry a tandem charge ATGM that can penetrate 1000 mm of armour, it is an excellent tank destroyer. However, with minimal armour protection and a large silhouette, the ZT3A2 must be played according to its strengths.

In the history of military aviation, it is rare to find instances of enemy air forces battling each other using the same aircraft. The British withdrawal from Palestine in 1948 is an example of such a rarity: Mustangs, Spitfires and Mosquitoes alike all took part in this conflict, as well as other R.A.F. and I.A.F. aircraft, which will be discussed here as well.

The XM800T is an ARSV, developed in the 1970s by Chrysler, FMC Corp., and Teledyne Continental. It was meant to replace the M114 but never entered production, although the experience gained was used in the M2 Bradley later on. However, this tank combines weak armor with a gun that can’t even penetrate 70mm of armor up close. So how to play this exceptional light tank? Find out in this article!

In the early 20th century, battleships became the ultimate symbol of naval power. The world's great maritime nations poured astronomical sums into building or procuring armored giants carrying massive guns.

Like many other pieces of Soviet military hardware, T-72 tanks ended up in the hands of countries around the world after the Cold War. T-72 operators included nations across Eastern Europe, Africa, and Asia, as well as several Western countries, such as Finland.

The T-28 is a Soviet medium tank from the USSR tech tree. It has several notable features, including two machine-gun turrets, a potent main cannon, and surprising mobility for a tank of its size. While it does have its limitations, with the right tactics and knowledge of its weaknesses, the T-28 can be a very strong weapon indeed. In this article, I will go over the tank’s best and worst features as well as the best way to play it.

Abdulaziz ibn Abdurrahman Al Saud became the Emir of Riyadh in 1902 and, over the next 30 years, devoted all his efforts to uniting the surrounding emirates under his leadership. He succeeded, and on September 23rd 1932, he proclaimed the establishment of a new state: the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
