War Thunder is Dropping Its Firebirds Update With New Aircraft Soon!

Gaijin Entertainment's upcoming War Thunder update, "Firebirds," promises a thrilling array of new military aviation assets, set to launch in early November. This comprehensive update introduces iconic aircraft and significant ground and naval reinforcements.

New Aircraft in War Thunder's Firebirds Update

The update features a diverse selection of aircraft, including the groundbreaking American F-117A Nighthawk stealth attack aircraft, the powerful Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber, and the formidable F-15E Strike Eagle.

The F-117A Nighthawk marks a first for War Thunder, representing the game's inaugural stealth aircraft. Its unique design, incorporating hard edges, sharp angles, radar-absorbing materials, and shielded engines, minimizes radar and infrared detection. Its real-world record of over 1,200 combat sorties without loss during Operation Desert Storm speaks volumes about its effectiveness.

In contrast to the stealthy Nighthawk, the F-15E Strike Eagle emphasizes sheer firepower. This enhanced F-15 variant boasts a 50% larger payload capacity and incorporates a ground target detection radar. Its arsenal includes AGM-65 Maverick missiles, laser-guided bombs, JDAM navigation-guided bombs, and the impressive GBU-39 satellite-guided bombs (with a capacity of 20 bombs per drop).

Beyond the Skies: Ground and Naval Additions

The "Firebirds" update extends beyond aircraft, adding new ground and naval vehicles to the mix. These include the agile British FV107 Scimitar light tank and the imposing French Dunkerque battleship.

Aces High Season and Additional Rewards

The new "Aces High" season is also underway, offering players the chance to unlock unique vehicles, trophies, and rewards through season and Battle Pass completion. These rewards include aircraft such as the Bf 109 G-14, F2G-1, and La-11, formidable platoons like the T54E2 and G6, and ships such as the HMS Orion and USS Billfish.
