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.

A Premium Sub-chaser for France at Rank III A Premium Medium Tank for the USSR at Rank IV
During the First World War, France decided to use a special type of small vessel, the Aviso a heavily armed submarine hunter disguised as a small merchant ship to fight enemy submarines. The class was named Arras but the lead ship of the class was Amiens, laid down in La Saint-sur-Mer in 1918. This ship is one of the heaviest coastal vessels in the game, with an arsenal of 138.6 mm guns and twin 37 mm autocannon mounts, complemented by a 75 mm universal cannon and small machine guns.
The development of a new Soviet tank capable of countering German Tigers and Panthers began back in 1943. Despite the start of production in 1944, the T-44 did not take part in any battles during the Second World War, but remained in service with the Soviets until the early 70s. The first production vehicles were distinguished by a driver port above the front armor plate and different turret armor. They were armed with a 85 mm D-5T cannon.
