Get the FCM 36 mug.A type of weapons setup used by German and Japanese aircraft in World War 2. In it, aircraft have cannons mounted in an upward firing position, usually diagonally, which are meant to hit and destroy bombers. The Japanese also had a variation with downward firing cannons which proved less successful. The term comes from German, and means Strange Music.

Get the Bonk Gun mug.The R3 T-20 FA-HS is a SPAA in War Thunder with a Battle Rating of 5.0 in realistic battles. It was (and for some, still is) hated for being at a lower battle rating, as when implimented into the game it was initially at the Battle Rating of 3.3. Due a fast-firing gun and a high top speed, it was easily able to flank and kill other tanks. It was progressively moved higher in BR to the location it currently sits at, solving the issue. The vehicle is referred to by some as the 'Lunchbox' or 'Cockroach' due to the shape of its cabin.

Get the R3 T-20 FA-HS mug.A US built fighter meant for export built shortly before world war 2. The aircraft was exported to China and the Dutch East Indies and proved to be one of the few aircraft capable of keeping up and turning with Japanese built A6Ms and Ki-43s. It can be found in War Thunder in the Chinese tech tree at rank I, with a battle rating of 2.7. With a excellent rate of climb, great agility, and decent firepower, it makes for a great bomber interceptor.
Interestingly, there is a popular misconception that the aircraft was known as ‘Demon’. This name was actually attached after the war. Since the aircraft was made for export, demonstrator aircraft would often be sent out to other countries for them to observe. They were often referred to as ‘Demon.’ in short in documents, which led to some believing it was being referred to as Demon.

Person 1: Hey, that guy just shot down my bomber!
Person 2: What sort of plane was it?
Person 1: It was one of those damn Curtiss-Wright CW-21s. How didn’t my FW-200’s guns kill it?
