Development trees for tanks, self-propelled guns and anti-aircraft guns in War Thunder. What is the best way to upgrade the USSR branch in war thunder (tanks)

War thunder have waited for the moment when battles take place not only in the air, but also on land!

This event will give everyone many hours of exciting tank battles that will bring admiration and a storm of emotions!

Therefore, today we have an interesting and useful topic for many of you - tanks in the War thunder game.

You will take part in battles on equipment of the Second World War, try it out and even "feel", thanks to the stunning graphics and physics. After all, it was the military equipment of those times that was considered one of the most versatile and perfect.

In this article, you will learn:

Development branches

1. At the initial stages, players have access to two branches of development, represented by the combat vehicles of Germany and the USSR. Each of them includes different modification options for heavy, medium, light tanks.
2. Among Germany's vehicles, you can take control of the famous Panthers and Tigers. USSR equipment will shine with its T-34 and KV.
3. Each tank can be pumped, using any modifications to improve it. It is also possible to modify additional elements - overview, install protective steel sheets on the tracks, reloading, and so on.

In short, it is impossible to list all the options, there are incredibly many of them!

Feature of combat vehicles

The overview of tanks will not be complete without mentioning the shells. They are qualified in various categories, ranging from sub-caliber to armor-piercing.

The steel equipment did not do with some modifications. Almost all aircraft functionality has been moved to tanks. This means that you can upgrade the crew, improve the conditions for conducting battles, apply different color-graphic designs to the vehicle's body. Each player can create his own real invincible battle monster.

The battle mode is arcade, but the developers assure us that other modes will soon become available.

Tank branches

Equipment upgrade is carried out in stages. It starts with early models and ends with fast cars. Each tank has only its own model structure, characteristics, behavior.

Some have great armor, others are powerful. It is not easy to deal with every nuance, so it is much easier to roll a steel horse in battle.

The players recognized the T-50, T-34-85, SU-100, T-54, IS-4 as the best tanks of the USSR.

Now an overview of German tanks War thunder, there are several branches here. The vehicles are represented by Czechoslovak vehicles, legendary tigers, the deadly Pz1VF2 tank, and panthers.

Mode

The main task of the player is to capture certain points with the destruction of opponents. There are three to five control points on the map. When you capture them, you get points, while at the enemy they decrease.

Everyone can do more damage by summoning artillery support. It is just important to correctly calculate the battle tactics in advance.

Browser battles take place in "garage" mode. This means that if you are destroyed, then you can again choose your next tank. Rewards are awarded for damaging opponents, conducting a common battle, and individual shots.

What would you like to end our tanks review with?

The fact that you get the peak of excitement only in battle. And believe me, this is an incredible feeling!

Already, this military equipment is gaining a lot of positive feedback on the forums and an incredible number of views. The popularity of War Thunder is steadily growing, it is rapidly becoming the leader!

Don't waste time, join us and go with us to the exciting battlefields, remembering to invite your friends! And since further expansion is planned, subscribe to the news of our blog so as not to miss important things. That's all, bye-bye. Happy battles!

“Probably many who are interested in the development of the WT project, and in particular the ground forces, thought how the development branches of the countries represented might look like.
(in the game menu, you can even see a switch between the types of troops, which is not plowing yet)

I took the liberty (audacity) to arrange various equipment on the example of two of the most prominent representatives of the ground forces of that time, namely, the USSR and Germany.

What technique is used?
Only serial production mechanized vehicles that took part (fought) in the Second World War and the Korean War.
Light, medium, heavy tanks, as well as self-propelled guns (tank destroyers, anti-tank and assault guns), self-propelled howitzers, anti-aircraft guns and armored vehicles.

Also added a premium line of vehicles for each country.

What was my guide in balancing the levels?
Having reviewed the current branches of aircraft many times, I took two principles by which I put technology on one level or another.
Firstly, I relied on the real date of appearance, after which I balanced the car in accordance with its characteristics and influence on the course of the war.
Perhaps many points will seem controversial to you, if you think so, I will be glad to hear constructive criticism.

Light tanks, armored vehicles, as well as ZSU are installed in terms of combat effectiveness (excluding the date of appearance), this was done on purpose to lower them to low levels in order to increase their relevance.
The same goes for self-propelled artillery.

Price policy.
Actually, Comrade Bracker helped me with the prices for the equipment (for which thanks to him), they are set on the basis of the current aircraft at the average price of a unit per level. "- Mr 13

Currently, the game has two technological tank branches of two countries - the USSR and Germany. In the future, it is planned to add the US, Japan and the UK. Consider the ones already present in the game.

There are five types of tank vehicles in the game:

1. Lightweight - for reconnaissance and artillery support.
2. Medium - for breaking through the enemy's flanks and destroying light ground vehicles.
3. Heavy - used to protect the main forces.
4. Anti-tank self-propelled artillery installations - for cover and defense against enemy offensive.
5. Anti-aircraft guns - for countering aviation and destroying air targets.

Below are screenshots of the Soviet development branch. Click the mouse to enlarge the pictures.

The branches, in turn, are divided as they progress into ranks, of which there are only five. Consider the Rank Council ground vehicles in the War Thunder game:

1. The entry level includes the BT-7, T-26, T-28, T-60, T-70 and ZIS-30 tanks. It is not necessary to open all the branches, first you can pump the technique that seems more necessary to you at this stage of the game.
2. The second rank already allows you to determine the further specifics of technology and your preferences for the type of game, and includes good intermediate samples, such as E-80, T-34 1941L11, T-34 1941, T-34 1942, KV-1, KV-1 ZIS-5 and SU-76M.
3. The third rank can already be called "playable" for solid farming and further development of your tanks (one KV-2 is worth it). T-34-57, T-34-85, KV-2 1939, IS-1, SU-85, SU-85M.
4. In the fourth, the specificity and the best representatives, in our opinion, of the tank destroyer are already visible. SU-100, T-44, T-34-85, IS-2, ISU-122 and ISU-122S.
5. Well, the pinnacle of the military technological branch of the USSR is a reward for passing previous ranks, the best representatives of that time - IS-3, ISU-152, IS-4M and T-54-1951.

The German development branch in War Thunder is practically the same as the Soviet one in terms of passing and unlocking new vehicles.

The ranks of German ground vehicles in the War Thunder game are distributed as follows:

1. The first starting rank includes - PzKpfw 38 (t) Ausf.A, PzKpfw II Ausf.C, PzKpfw II Ausf.F, PzKpfw III Ausf.E, PzKpfw III Ausf.F, PzKpfw IV Ausf.C, StuG III Ausf. A.
2. In the second rank, it is worth deciding on the priority of the development of the branch and the type of equipment. PzKpfw III Ausf.L, PzKpfw III Ausf.M, PzKpfw IV Ausf.F, PzKpfw IV Ausf.F2 and StuG III Ausf.F.
3. The third rank is intermediate and interesting in it is tank destroyer. Jagdpanzer IV, PzKpfw V Ausf.D, PzKpfw IV Ausf.H, PzKpfw IV Ausf.G and PzKpfw VI Ausf.H1.
4. Those who reach the fourth rank become the owners of good cars with excellent "lethal" and dynamic characteristics. Includes Ferdinand, Jagdpanther, PzKpfw V Ausf.G, PzKpfw V Ausf.A, and PzKpfw VI Ausf.B.
5. Well, the top of the tank branch of Germany is one of the best representatives - Panther II, PzKpfw V Ausf.F and PzKpfw VI Ausf.B mit KwK46. The Maus line is not being considered in the game yet.

For which country to start passing the branch of ground vehicles? The balance of the game does not allow us to give precise recommendations for choosing a nation, and each player probably has his own preferences in technology, but still we dare to advise pumping both branches in parallel at least to the third rank, someone will surely like the clumsy power of the advice, or maybe vice versa- more flexible tactically, but weak in terms of fire, German equipment at the initial stage of the development of the branch. But the easiest branch at the beginning of the game is still considered the Soviet branch.

Types of ground vehicle battles in War Thunder.

The game provides three types of battles for tanks in Var Thunder:

1. Arcade.
2. Realistic.
3. Simulation.

To begin with, we advise you to choose the option of arcade battles, since they have the opportunity to see the place of impact of the shell fired by your tank, which in turn makes it possible to "fill your hand" in the well-aimed defeat of the weakest modules of enemy tanks. If at the beginning of the battle your tank is knocked out, then in the arcade version there is an opportunity to continue the battle for the selected country by transferring to another tank from the hangar. A good mode for earning silver, although experience points are given less than in other modes.

A more difficult and "expensive" type of combat in War Thunder in terms of gaining combat experience is realistic. Here you need to use all your gaming skills and the skills of your crew. There is no possibility of changing the vehicle selected before the battle and restarting after the destruction of your tank. Management is complex, without markers and indicators of distances to the target. For the destroyed enemy equipment, increased experience is given, however, big money is taken to repair your own. As a rule, they participate in battles at more "mature" ranks and top tanks. The battles have a historical basis and the participation of the battle of one nation against another.

Crew of a tank in War Thunder. Improving combat skills.

The crew of ground vehicles in the game always consists of five people: a tank commander, a gunner, a driver, a radio operator, and a loader. Each here has its own combat characteristics that increase the overall combat damage from your vehicle. Let's consider in more detail the specialties of each.

Tank commander. There are five skills to learn - vitality, leadership, machine gun shooting, vigilance and field repair. Leadership can be chosen as a priority in the study, which improves the characteristics of the crew as a whole.

Gunner. Five combat characteristics for the gunner - survivability, vigilance, field repair, ranging and guidance. Here, the recommendations depend on your preferences for the mode of battles in the game - if you mainly play or plan to participate in arcade battles on this machine, then you should pump the determination of the range, since it is most important in this mode. And if you are a supporter of realistic or simulator battles, then you should pay attention to the guidance.

Driver mechanic. There are four combat skills: driving, vitality, vigilance, and field repair. The undoubted first characteristic here is to pump driving, which increases the maneuverability of the combat vehicle and the braking speed.

Charging. There are also four combat characteristics: vigilance, survivability, field repairs, and gun loading. Here, of course, we first swing the loading of the gun, which will increase the rate of fire of our gun.

Gunner-radio operator. It is possible to upgrade as many as six perks: vitality, vigilance, field repair, radio communications, firing from a course machine gun and reloading a course machine gun. First of all, we download the profile skill-radio communication.

It is noticeable that, in addition to the main characteristics in the military specialty, there are general ones that increase the crew's skills - these are survivability and field repair.

In addition to pumping the combat skills of the crew in the game War Thunder, there is an additional feature for the general improvement of characteristics - this is qualification.

It should be remembered that in order to acquire qualifications, the crew must be pumped to one hundred percent level.

Modules and upgrades for tanks in War Thunder.

Modules and additional equipment of tanks in the game are divided into three types:

1. Mobility.
2. Firepower.
3. Security and disguise.

The mobility section includes all the cross-country ability and movement speed of the machine. Includes the ability to pump tracks to improve traction and the ability to overcome various obstacles on karts. Suspension and braking systems improve handling and overall vehicle dynamics in War Thunder. The transmission is responsible for the gearbox and the traction control elements, which positively affects the handling.

The firepower modules are responsible for improving the tank related to weapons, the turret drive adjusts and lubricates the turret rotation mechanism of the vehicle and slightly increases the speed and smoothness of rotation. Artillery support allows you to call artillery fire at a specified point, but remember that only light and medium tanks have this opportunity.

Protection and camouflage allows you to install modules that improve the additional protection of the vehicle using attachment armor and reduce the visibility of enemy tanks and aircraft. We hope our guide to tanks and crew skills in the War Thunder game will help you upgrade your combat vehicles faster and defeat more opponents in the game.

RBK Games platform specialists will try to highlight the main points in each direction, and you yourself decide which branch to download and develop.

Germany

The development of German aircraft in the War Thunder is carried out at a fairly active pace, and each representative deserves to be applied in. The German fighter is distinguished by the following features:

• Focke-Wulf models are difficult to control, but they have the most powerful weapons and feel confident during a dive;
• the classic version of "Messers" with a standard set of characteristics and capabilities;
• Development in War Thunder also includes exclusive aircraft, for example, the Arad-204.

USA

Almost every American aircraft is the embodiment of speed, survivability, and a large stock of guns. But there is also a drawback - a complex control system, so beginners first need to practice on lighter machines. US aircraft tactics: flew in, struck, flew away. Many opponents are afraid of such lightning strikes ... and rightly so. Common series: Mustang and Cobra, among bombers - B-17. Which direction to swing, decide for yourself.

Great Britain

Be sure to try British Tempest with its unique fighter and bomber abilities. In a matter of minutes, he rises to the maximum height, maneuvers like God, if necessary, drops to the minimum height and successfully helps the ground troops to fulfill the assigned tasks. When deciding which branch of aircraft to upgrade in War Thunder, be sure to evaluate the power and strength of British bombers. They carry tons of shells on board that will surely hit the target.

The American and British branches of aircraft development are far from the only ones, because there are still Japanese and Soviet technology. You can get acquainted with them as follows: choose the appropriate nation, point to the "research" item in the menu, decide on the model and order.

Sometimes users are faced with such a problem when the victory was close, but in the end something did not work out. War Thunder is a game in which you need to experiment, look for the perfect technique, strategy, and weapon. Don't forget this!
