ASU-57

A Russian air-droppable tank destroyer, infamous in War Thunder for its sneakiness and surprisingly deadly gun. This sneakiness is often amplified with bushes. It’s also known as simply ASU.

Of course I couldn’t see him, he’s a ASU-57 covered in bushes!

Schräge Musik

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.

The allies initially struggled to counter German fighters with Schräge Musik guns.
