War Thunder Mobile Unveils Aircraft Open Beta

War Thunder Mobile's open beta for air battles has officially launched, bringing intense aerial combat to mobile devices. Gaijin Entertainment's latest update introduces over 100 aircraft from three nations, with more to come.

While the game previously featured aircraft in naval and ground support roles, this open beta introduces a full-fledged aerial tech tree and a dedicated air combat mode.

Dive into the Skies: War Thunder Mobile's Air Battles Open Beta

Currently, players can pilot planes from the USA, Germany, and the USSR, including iconic aircraft like the P-51 Mustang, Messerschmitt Bf 109, and La-5. More nations are planned for future updates.

Players can focus on a single nation's tech tree or diversify their fleet. High-ranking aircraft can be acquired through blueprints earned in in-game events, with the first event starting in early October.

The open beta includes a new Aviation campaign, where players can manage their aircraft hangar, research tech trees, and upgrade crews. Squadrons of up to four planes can be formed, allowing for customization of aircraft and armaments. See a preview below!

Gameplay and Customization

The aircraft hangar serves as the central hub between battles. Here, players can manage vehicles, apply camouflage, explore the tech tree, and invite friends to squads.

Each aircraft slot offers options to change vehicles, modify armaments, or upgrade crews. Squadrons can be built using any available aircraft, regardless of class, nation, or rank.

With numerous new features, War Thunder Mobile's air battles open beta offers a wealth of content. Download the game from the Google Play Store and experience the action firsthand!
