War Thunder is a free-to-play, cross-platform MMO combat game for Windows, Linux, Mac and PlayStation®4 dedicated to military vehicles used in and around World War II and the Korean War. In War Thunder, you can take part in major battles on land, in the air, and at sea, fighting with real players from all over the world in a continuously developing environment.
War Thunder already offers a highly detailed experience in military aviation and ground forces combat, giving players access to a Guinness World Record breaking number of aircraft, as well as an abundance of tanks and other combat vehicles - and the number is constantly rising.
You can feel the unmatched intensity of aerial dogfights in a fighter, the decisive power of commanding a heavy strategic bomber or the heat of battle in a ground attacker, delivering precision strikes against your enemies. Alternatively, you can join the spearhead of armoured vehicles, fighting for dominance over the battlefield on the ground: Man a heavy tank with impressive armour and firepower, use the maneuverability of a medium or light tank to your advantage, or support your team by screening the skies with your anti aircraft vehicle - the choice is yours!
In the future, the game will also allow players to ‘set sail’ by commanding a variety of warships in the fight over the control of the world’s oceans, giving the game a truly epic scale.
Master your vehicles through both upgrades and personal experience in an environment that is constantly expanding and rewarding the personal skill of the player. Organise your efforts in one of the countless player squadrons and become an ace pilot or tanker - or both! Our thriving and welcoming community of millions of players is also actively participating in the game’s ongoing development, offering custom content through War Thunder Live, such as skins, missions and even vehicles.
War Thunder has something for everyone. Play cooperative games with your friends on Windows PC, Linux, Mac or PlayStation 4 against AI, or squad up for a PvP battle in a difficulty setting matching your play style, ranging from Arcade to Simulator using Mouse and Keyboard, Gamepad or Joystick.

SL-AMRAAM: Hummissile
[i]The SL-AMRAAM (Surface Launched AMRAAM) surface-to-air missile system was developed by American company Raytheon as a land-based version of the AIM-120 AMRAAM air-to-air missile. This short and medium-range mobile system was created to protect troops and important facilities from modern air threats.
The system is based on the AIM-120C missile with an ARH head, launched from compact launchers on a Humvee or truck chassis. To detect targets, the system uses AN/MPQ-64 Sentinel radars or other compatible radars integrated into a single NATO air defense network.[/i]
The SL-AMRAAM is set to be one of the most interesting new vehicles coming in the Leviathans major update. Not just because it is capable of firing both AIM-120 ARH missiles and new to the game AIM-9X all-aspect missiles, but because its a Multi-Vehicle SAM System based on the famous Humvee chassis! Lets take a further look at what it is all about.
If youve been following our news as of late, you would have heard about Multi-Vehicle SAM Systems coming to War Thunder. If you missed it, make sure to get yourself up to speed here ! In short, these new systems feature one radar vehicle and one or two launchers that can be placed nearby.
The SL-AMRAAM features a radar vehicle with an AN/MPQ-64 Sentinel radar on the back of a trailer, as well as two launcher vehicles in the form of missiles mounted onto the back of a Humvee. At your fingertips are two different types of missiles that can be used for both medium and short ranges and altitudes. The first one is the AIM-120C, which features an ARH seeker, excellent for use against targets coming head on. This missile has a launch range of about 25 km from the ground, a long flight time and improved jamming immunity.
The second missile is the AIM-9X, one of the most modern iterations of the famous Sidewinder air-to-air missile family! This missile is going to be a very, very unpleasant surprise for enemy aircraft. It has an all-aspect IR seeker, a high immunity to countermeasures, an amazingly high available overload and a controlled thrust vector. If youre on the receiving end of this missile, it will not be easy to escape it once it has been fired at you. It can be launched at a distance of about 10 km against a non-maneuvering target.
Since the Humvee features a modular design, it was the perfect choice for this missile system. The SL-AMRAAMs radar vehicle and two launchers are both based on the Humvee, which are also integral parts of the U.S. and NATO military contingents. This U.S. Armed Forces workhorse is fast, on a good road you can accelerate to more than 110 km/h! The armor is just bulletproof and anti-fragmentation however, providing little to no reliable protection, so make sure to position your vehicles wisely.
Thats this one done! The SL-AMRAAM Multi-Vehicle SAM System is coming to rank VIII in the USAs ground forces tree as an end of line SPAA (SAM) in the Leviathans major update! And remember, be sure to check out our website for other dev blogs weve got coming.
Please note that this vehicles characteristics may be changed before it is added to the game.
Meet this mobile SAM vehicle, featuring radar missiles on the back of an army Humvee jeep!
