War 2077 has arrived in War Thunder

Company Gaijin Entertainment reveals the details of the virtual environment for the first time “War 2077”, Designed to simulate the interaction of promising samples of ground and air technology on a hypothetical battlefield of the future. The product is created in partnership with the ministries of defense of the world’s leading powers and passed several stages of testing by military specialists… Today begins the public playtest “Wars-2077”, open to everyone, – to participate, it is enough to have access to the client of the online game War Thunder

According to the scenario of virtual exercises, in 2077 the Earth will be threatened with global extinction due to a collision with fragments of a massive space body and the most valuable object on the planet will be a cosmodrome in American Arizona. Whoever owns it will be able to evacuate into space and are guaranteed to save part of the population.

The players have at their disposal equipment that is relevant for the second half of the 21st century, for example, the Minotaur MBT with a 140-mm cannon, with an uninhabited turret, high-precision kinetic ammunition, missile weapons, an active defense system and an optical camouflage system that allows the tank to be camouflaged in visible and infrared spectra. The tank’s active protection complex is capable of detecting and destroying most types of weapons at a distance from the vehicle.

Missile tank “Hydra” is deprived of the same powerful protection, but it can effectively hit targets from cover, using 76 vertical launch missiles. To detect and target targets outside direct visual contact, the missile tank is equipped with a retractable bar with a complex of optoelectronic equipment, as well as an installation for launching reconnaissance and strike UAVs. The passive protection of the Hydra tank provides all-round protection and protection of the upper hemisphere from single hits of cumulative ammunition and missiles.

Players also have access to the Harpy universal air defense / missile defense system, the Wyvern heavy attack UAV with modular weapons (it can act as an interceptor, attack aircraft or fighter-bomber), and the Griffin-3 reconnaissance UAV, which can also be used as loitering ammunition.

The playtest will last for several days – until statistics are accumulated that allow drawing conclusions about the effective tactics and prospects of certain samples in the simulated circumstances.
