Completion of each individual task will bring you a trophy with one of the following rewards:
One of the most important battles in the history of naval warfare occurred in early May of 1942. The Battle of the Coral Sea was the first air-naval battle in history, as none of the carriers fired at each other. As a result, Japan had sunk more ships, but the Allies managed to halt a major Japanese offensive for the first time in World War II.
The P-47 Thunderbolt fighter first took flight on May 6th, 1941. Nicknamed "Jug" for its appearance, it was one of the heaviest and most powerful aircraft of the World War II era. The P-47 was successful in both air combat and ground assault; it was widely used in European and Pacific theaters of World War II and also by the USSR through the lend-lease program.
Victory! The Red Army repelled the Axis powers for four long years: it defended Moscow, took back Stalingrad, reclaimed the initiative at Kursk, and then kicked the invaders out and chased them all the way to Berlin. The German Instrument of Surrender marked the end of the Great Patriotic War the hardest in the entire history of the USSR and Russia.
To Rome! Beginning in early 1944, the Allies had tried to breach the Gustav Line whilst taking heavy casualties. The fourth attempt, called Operation Diadem, began May 11th and turned out to be successful, opening the path towards the capital of Italy.
The North African campaign that lasted for almost three years had been put to an end in Tunisia. By May 13th, 1943 over 200,000 German and Italian soldiers had surrendered to the Allied forces, allowing them to turn to Sicily and later continental Italy.
The North Caucasian Front was created by the USSR on May 20th, 1942 to defend The Azov and Black sea coastlines. Led by Marshal Semyon Budenny, the North Caucasian Front was fought in the Stavropol and Krasnodar regions, stopping the invading forces from crossing the Caucasus mountain range.
During the Battle for France, German forces surrounded the Allies in the town of Boulogne-sur-Mer, forcing them to defend themselves. Poor communication between the Allies led to a large number of British troops evacuating by sea, abandoning the Welsh Guards and surprising the French. Nevertheless, the defense of Boulogne had delayed the German advance towards Dunkirk, where the mass evacuation of Allied troops took place.
The Messerschmitt Bf 109, a legendary fighter aircraft, took to the air for the first time on May 28th, 1935. It soon became the most mass-produced German aircraft. It was used by numerous aces of World War II: from Gnther Rall to Erich Hartmann, the most successful fighter ace in history. Even with the advent of jet aircraft, the Bf 109 remained popular: the Spanish Air Force continued to use it until late in 1965.

War Thunder is a free-to-play, cross-platform MMO combat game for Windows, Linux, Mac and PlayStation®4 dedicated to military vehicles used in and around World War II and the Korean War. In War Thunder, you can take part in major battles on land, in the air, and at sea, fighting with real players from all over the world in a continuously developing environment.
War Thunder already offers a highly detailed experience in military aviation and ground forces combat, giving players access to a Guinness World Record breaking number of aircraft, as well as an abundance of tanks and other combat vehicles - and the number is constantly rising.
You can feel the unmatched intensity of aerial dogfights in a fighter, the decisive power of commanding a heavy strategic bomber or the heat of battle in a ground attacker, delivering precision strikes against your enemies. Alternatively, you can join the spearhead of armoured vehicles, fighting for dominance over the battlefield on the ground: Man a heavy tank with impressive armour and firepower, use the maneuverability of a medium or light tank to your advantage, or support your team by screening the skies with your anti aircraft vehicle - the choice is yours!
In the future, the game will also allow players to ‘set sail’ by commanding a variety of warships in the fight over the control of the world’s oceans, giving the game a truly epic scale.
Master your vehicles through both upgrades and personal experience in an environment that is constantly expanding and rewarding the personal skill of the player. Organise your efforts in one of the countless player squadrons and become an ace pilot or tanker - or both! Our thriving and welcoming community of millions of players is also actively participating in the game’s ongoing development, offering custom content through War Thunder Live, such as skins, missions and even vehicles.
War Thunder has something for everyone. Play cooperative games with your friends on Windows PC, Linux, Mac or PlayStation 4 against AI, or squad up for a PvP battle in a difficulty setting matching your play style, ranging from Arcade to Simulator using Mouse and Keyboard, Gamepad or Joystick.
