After the First World War, many engineers became fascinated with controversial and sometimes downright bizarre ideas. Tanks had only recently appeared on the battlefield, so there was still no consensus on how this new type of fighting vehicle should be designed. Every country had its own vision of the future.
Did you know that you can make your tanks have a manual transmission? By default your tank will use an automatic transmission, however you can make your tank have a manual transmission. Automatic manages shifting for ease of play, while Manual mode provides precise control over engine RPMs, gear selection, and neutral steering—ideal for steep climbs and stabilized combat. It’s one more thing to do during the heat of a battle, but can be worth the reward.
War Thunder has plenty of strike aircraft that rely on forward-firing guns to attack ground targets. But one of them is truly special. It is, perhaps, the most legendary aircraft ever built around a large-caliber cannon. We are talking, of course, about the German Duck, the Hs 129 B-3.

The PT-76 is a legendary amphibious combat vehicle designed by Soviet engineers specifically to cross Europe’s rivers and other water obstacles. Unfortunately, in the game, its amphibious capability is rarely useful, and this comes at the cost of extremely thin armor.

The Panther series is one of the most iconic tank lineages in history, and its reputation lives on in War Thunder. Fast, well-armed, and well-armored, the Panther is an absolute joy to play. It’s also one of the few tanks in the German tech tree that doesn’t heavily sacrifice armor for speed, giving it a playstyle that stands out from many of its German counterparts. In today’s article, we’ll take a look at the Panther’s strengths and weaknesses, the tactics that suit it best, and how to get the most out of one of Germany’s most iconic cats.
By the mid-2000s, Venezuela was looking for a new multirole platform to modernize its Fighter Air Groups. It was at this time that the Sukhoi Su-30MK2 (NATO reporting name: Flanker-G) was acquired, an aircraft that would make the Caribbean nation the sole Latin American operator of the legendary Flanker fighter family and which, for nearly two decades, has remained the country’s primary frontline air combat asset.
From the outset of the Second World War, Germany fought the European powers on land, in the air, and at sea. While the Wehrmacht swept rapidly across the continent, capturing one country after another, the situation at sea was very different. The British Royal Navy held a decisive numerical advantage over the Kriegsmarine in major warships, so Germany placed greater emphasis on commerce raiding. These operations targeted enemy merchant shipping, above all the Atlantic convoys on which Britain depended for supplies.
