VTOL Aircraft

The advent of the jet era presented a new set of problems to the designers and manufacturers of naval aircraft. As jets needed longer runways, engineers were forced to outfit carriers with complicated and expensive systems for assisted take-off and landing. Even in the late 1950s, contemporary aircraft catapults still left much to be desired – and that’s why major powers of the world started developing VTOL tech – or aircraft with vertical take-off and landing capabilities. Two countries that achieved exceptional results in that race were the UK and the USSR, and so War Thunder features the aircraft of the Harrier family (available in the British and the American tech trees), and the Yak-38 (found in the Soviet tech tree). Today we’re going to talk about the ways you can unlock the full potential of those unique aircraft!
