War Thunder's "Firebirds" Update: New Aircraft and More!

Gaijin Entertainment has announced the upcoming "Firebirds" update for War Thunder, arriving in early November. This major update boasts a fleet of new aircraft, ground vehicles, and warships.

New Aircraft Taking Flight

Among the exciting additions are iconic aircraft such as the American F-117 Nighthawk stealth attack aircraft, the Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber, and the powerful F-15E Strike Eagle.

  • F-117A Nighthawk: War Thunder's first stealth aircraft, featuring radar-deflecting design, radar-absorbing materials, and shielded engines. Its real-world performance in Operation Desert Storm, with over 1,200 combat sorties without loss, speaks volumes.

  • F-15E Strike Eagle: An enhanced F-15 variant, boasting a 50% larger payload capacity and a ground target detection radar. Its arsenal includes AGM-65 Maverick missiles, laser-guided bombs, JDAMs, and even GBU-39 satellite-guided bombs (20 at a time!).

Beyond the Skies

The "Firebirds" update isn't limited to aircraft. Ground and naval forces are also receiving reinforcements, including the British FV107 Scimitar light tank and the French Dunkerque battleship.

Aces High Season Continues

The current Aces High season offers additional opportunities to unlock unique vehicles, earn trophies, and collect rewards by completing the season and Battle Pass. This includes aircraft like the Bf 109 G-14, F2G-1, and La-11, along with formidable vehicles such as the T54E2 and G6 tanks, and ships like the HMS Orion and USS Billfish.
