Heinkel He 115 C-1: The Flying Magician
Features:
Arriving in the upcoming Sons of Attila major update, the He 115 will be added to the German aviation tree in one of its later variants: the C-1 modification. Lets take a closer look as to what this modification has to offer! Being a seaplane, the He 115 is equipped with a pair of BMW 132K radial engines, producing 960 HP each. As a result, the He 115s robust engines are less susceptible to damage and can withstand more combat damage before failing, but due to their mediocre power output and the aircrafts relatively high weight, the He 115 C-1 can only reach a top speed of around 310 km/h at low altitudes.
Naturally, the He 115s low top speed makes it vulnerable to interception from much faster and more agile fighters. To counter this however, the He 115 is fitted with a pair of defensive machine guns, with one being mounted in the nose turret, and another on the dorsal position. This modification of the He 115 also comes with an additional trick up its sleeve. Namely, engineers fitted the aircraft with a pair of fixed machine guns, mounted on the rear ends of the engine nacelles. While it may prove difficult to score an aerial victory with them, these machine guns may just be enough to catch enemies off guard and make them break off the pursuit! [quote]Did you know? During testing, the He 115 set a total of eight world records for seaplanes during its closed circuit tests of 1,000 and 2,000 kilometres respectively.[/quote]
So what about the He 115 C-1s offensive capabilities then? Unlike the original variant of this aircraft, this later modification is fitted with a deadly 15mm MG 151 cannon, mounted on the underside of its nose, capable of shredding light enemy aircraft to pieces with just a few well placed shots. Furthermore, surface targets also wont remain spared by the He 115. In fact, the aircraft can carry a couple of 250 kg conventional or incendiary bombs or a single 500 kg bomb, as well as a torpedo for naval targets.
The He 115 C-1 will soon be making its way to the German aircraft research tree in the upcoming Sons of Attila major update! Also, an early version of this aircraft, designated T-2, will also be added to the Swedish aircraft research tree as well. In the meantime, be sure to follow the news for the latest information regarding the upcoming update. Until then, clear skies and happy hunting pilots!

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.
