Pages of History (September): Attacker Ace
Lev Mikhailovich Roshchin arrived at the front at the age of 19 in December 1941. He was a skilled pilot and quickly earned the rank of lieutenant, becoming a squadron commander. During the war, he fought in the Caucasus, Crimea, Leningrad and the Baltics, completing 565 combat sorties. For exemplary performance of combat missions in the Baltic operation, he was awarded the Hero of the Soviet Union title.

Completing each individual task will give you a trophy with one of the following rewards:
After the victory in the Battle of Kursk, the USSR seized the strategic initiative from Germany and advanced on Bryansk. After a series of initial failures, the Red Army managed to go on the offensive in September 1943 and drive the Germans out of Bryansk on September 17th, and out of the Bryansk region by early October.
On the initiative of Marshal Zhukov, a victory parade was held at the Brandenburg Gate in Allied-occupied Berlin on September 7th 1945, with the participation of the USSR, Great Britain, France and the USA. It was nicknamed the forgotten parade because it was not covered as much in the Western press, and the Allied commanders-in-chief (except Zhukov) refused to participate, sending their deputies instead.
The largest tank battle of the Second Indo-Pakistani War took place on September 8th-10th 1965. Pakistani tanks attacked without infantry support, and the Indian army took advantage of the tactical advantage to achieve a confident victory. Pakistan lost almost a hundred tanks in the battle, a third of which were captured by India in combat-ready condition.
On September 14th 1944, the Red Army began a strategic operation to expel German troops from the territory of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. It included the Riga, Tallinn, Moonsund and Memel operations and took place on a front line a thousand kilometers long. By the end of autumn, the Wehrmacht had been driven out of the territories of all three Baltic countries, with the exception of the Courland pocket.
The Battle of Arracourt in northeastern France took place from September 18th to 28th 1944. It was one of the largest tank battles on the Western Front. Germany sent 262 tanks and assault guns to counterattack the American forces, but did not provide them with reconnaissance, which gave the United States the tactical advantage. The Americans were able to shell the enemy from advantageous positions and outflank them. In the end, with relatively small losses, they disabled almost 200 units of German equipment.
On September 19th, the longest battle in the history of the American army began which lasted for several months. The Germans successfully held the Hrtgen Forest, repelling attacks by the Allies. From this region, the Wehrmacht then organized the Ardennes counteroffensive. During numerous attempts at an offensive, the Americans lost several tens of thousands of men. The Battle of Hrtgen Forest was one of the most severe defeats of the Allies.
On September 25th 1942, Soviet troops began a defensive operation in southern Russia. They managed to hold back the superior forces of the Wehrmacht, preventing the Germans from taking Tuapse, breaking through to the Georgian Military Road and the oil deposits in Azerbaijan. By the beginning of winter, Germanys forces in the region were tied down, and the USSR went on the offensive.
From September 27th to 29th 1981, Iran carried out an operation to lift the siege of Abadan, a small city near the border with Iraq that Iraqi forces had been besieging for 11 months since the start of the war but had failed to take. The Iranians struck along the front line toward the Iraqi city of Basra to force the enemy to redeploy forces to defend their own territory. As a result, the Iraqi troops besieging Abadan were left without reinforcements and, although they outnumbered the Iranian forces, they fled in panic as a result of the attack, abandoning hundreds of vehicles.

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.
