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.

Operation Seydlitz
On July 2nd, 1942, the Wehrmacht began an operation to eliminate the protrusions in the front line near Rzhev. A large group of Soviet troops was surrounded, some of them managed to break through and leave the cauldron after heavy fighting, but most did not. As a result of the operation, Germany lost only 4,000 soldiers, while the USSR lost about 60,000.July 5th July 8th
Operation Citadel
On July 4th, 1943, Germany launched an offensive near Kursk, beginning the largest tank battle in history. Germany delayed the start of the operation for a long time in order to deliver new Panther tanks and large batches of Tiger tanks to the front. This allowed the USSR to prepare well and hold its ground. Victory in the Battle of Kursk allowed the USSR to seize the strategic initiative until the end of the war.July 9th July 12th
Allied invasion of Sicily
On the night of July 9th-10th, Allied forces landed on Sicily from the air and sea, beginning military operations on the territory of the Axis countries. This caused panic in the German command and led to the transfer of German forces from the Kursk front to southern Europe. In mid-August, the remaining Axis forces on the island were evacuated from Sicily to Italy.July 12th July 15th
Battle of Soltsy
From July 14th to July 18th, 1941, Soviet troops conducted a successful counteroffensive in the area of the city of Soltsy near Novgorod. The Wehrmacht leadership relaxed after the successful start of Operation Barbarossa and did not expect such resistance, thanks to which the German offensive on Leningrad was delayed for about a week.July 16th July 19th
Beginning of the Battle of Stalingrad
On July 17th, 1942, one of the greatest battles in history began. More than a million Soviet soldiers fought against a million Axis troops, including Germans, Romanians, Hungarians, and Italians for six months. The Soviet victory in this battle became a turning point in the history of the Second World War.July 20th July 23rd
Battle of Guam (1944)
On July 21st, 1944, American troops landed on the island of Guam. Their advance was hampered by dense jungle and tropical rains, but the Japanese garrison on the island suffered from a shortage of food and equipment. By August 10th, the island was finally under American control.July 24th July 27th
Battle of Radzymin
On July 25th, 1944, the largest tank battle of the Second World War on Polish territory began near Radzymin, east of Warsaw. In the previous month, the Red Army had advanced about 500 km, which caused supply problems at the front. Germany, however, had been expecting an offensive near Warsaw and fought back with confidence: the Soviet 3rd Tank Corps was surrounded and almost completely destroyed, and the battle was lost.July 28th July 31st
Operation Bluecoat
The American Operation Cobra broke through the Wehrmachts defensive line and on July 30th, 1944, British forces in Normandy began their offensive in support of the Allies.
