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.

Battle Pass vehicles: Project 183 BM-21

In the upcoming season of the War Thunder Battle Pass, all participants will have access to a premium version of the Project 183 boat, an export modification in service with the Egyptian navy. The torpedo armament on this version has been dismantled, and the rear gun mount also removed. In its place, the Egyptians mounted a BM-21 Grad MLRS with a total of 40 rockets!


The boat in its new role acquires new features. First, with excellent top speed, Project 183 is still a good choice for capturing enemy points. The density of automatic fire has halved, but still, a pair of 25-mm machine guns is an extremely effective weapon at close range against both enemy boats and aircraft. Secondly, thanks to the Grad multiple launch rocket launcher, the premium boat can play like a naval mortar, delivering massive rocket strikes over long distances. Of course, the accuracy of a single rocket is poor, but a whole package of 40 shots will definitely reach enemies in the target zone, while the boat itself can be in cover behind an island or a rock.


The absence of torpedoes in the case of the Project 183 boat is not a significant drawback. As we remember, only two light torpedoes are available to the researchable version of the Project 183. The exchange of torpedo tubes, doubtful in terms of effectiveness in battles in the coastal fleet, for MLRS is definitely beneficial.

So, the Project 183 premium boat with the MLRS will become the main naval prize of the upcoming War Thunder Battle Pass season. Soon we will tell you about other prizes of the new season, and next week, don't miss the big announcement with the full list of rules. See you very soon - stay tuned!
