Firebirds Update: War Thunder Adds New Aircraft Soon!

Gaijin Entertainment has just dropped some thrilling news for War Thunder fans. The much-anticipated Firebirds update, set to soar into the game in early November, is packed with new aircraft and more. This update is not just a minor tweak; it's a full-blown, feature-rich expansion that introduces some of the most iconic names in military aviation.

Which Are the New Aircraft in War Thunder?

Get ready to pilot some of the most legendary aircraft in the skies. The update brings the American F-117 stealth attack aircraft, Russia's Su-34 fighter bomber, and the formidable F-15E Strike Eagle, among others. But that's not all; the update also includes new ground vehicles and warships, such as the agile British FV107 Scimitar light tank and the mighty French battleship Dunkerque.

Let's dive into the details of these new additions. The F-117A Nighthawk marks a historic moment as the first aircraft in War Thunder to feature stealth technology. Its unique design, with hard edges and sharp angles, is engineered to deflect radar waves, making it nearly invisible to enemy detection. The aircraft is coated with radar-absorbing materials and ferromagnetic paint, and its engines are cleverly concealed behind intricate shielding. In real-world scenarios, like Operation Desert Storm, the F-117 proved its prowess, completing over 1,200 combat sorties without a single loss.

On the other hand, the F-15E Strike Eagle is all about sheer power. An evolution of the classic F-15 fighter, it's designed for devastating strikes. With a payload capacity 50% larger than its predecessor, the F-15E is equipped with advanced ground target detection radar. You'll have access to a wide array of weaponry, from AGM-65 Maverick missiles to laser-guided and JDAM navigation-guided bombs, and even the capability to drop 20 GBU-39 satellite-guided bombs in a single sortie. It's no wonder the F-15E is a cornerstone of the U.S. Air Force's strike capabilities.

There are quite a few new flying machines hitting the skies!

The Firebirds update isn't just about aircraft; it also brings exciting new ground and naval units. You'll encounter the swift British FV107 Scimitar light tank and the imposing French battleship Dunkerque, adding new dimensions to your gameplay.

Simultaneously, the new season, Aces High, is in full swing, offering players a chance to unlock unique vehicles and earn a variety of trophies and rewards by completing the season and Battle Pass. From aircraft like the Bf 109 G-14, F2G-1, and La-11 to formidable platoons such as the T54E2 and G6, and ships like the HMS Orion and USS Billfish, there's plenty to strive for.

Don't miss out on the action. Download War Thunder Mobile from the Google Play Store and be ready to take control of these new aircraft as soon as they launch.
