In 1939, a new style of warfare swept across Poland: Blitzkrieg. Utilising an extremely effective balance of speed, organisation and surprise to overcome entire nations, it was revolutionary compared to the slow, brutal First World War mindset of French and British tacticians. In this article, I will discuss how one aircraft, the Ju 87 'Stuka', was central to Blitzkrieg, and how it was perfectly engineered for terror bombing.

The Yokosuka D4Y Suisei (彗星, “Comet”), called “Judy” by the Allies, are a collection of three Rank II light bomber aircraft that can be found in the Japanese air tree. While called bombers in the game description, these planes play more like heavy strike fighters, due to their great speed and agility.
