Msg-info.png This article describes the types of missions that can be found in World War battles. More information about participation in World War can be found in the main article.

The clash of two armies in World War begins a battle in which the tasks of the mission depend on the status of the armies and the conditions they encounter.

Initially, the priority vehicles that can fulfill the mission tasks will be distributed between all participants in the battle. For example when escorting attack aircraft, fighter aircraft are distributed amongst the participants, and the AI takes control of the attackers which are the mission targets. If all positions in the aircraft formations and on the respawn points are occupied by AI, but such vehicles remain, they will be distributed among the player participants.

Types of vehicles will depend upon each mission type and specific vehicles available will be listed in each mission within the game.
