## What is War Dogs?

War Dogs is a world war 2 era air combat flight simulator game featuring 24 aircraft from the five major powers of the time- USA, Germany, UK, Japan and Russia. The game features the full diverse range of aircraft that were used in the great war- dog fighters, dive-bombers, torpedo-bombers and long range heavy-bombers. The game has both single player campaigns and multiplayer arena battles spread across five major theaters of war ranging from the deserts of North Africa to the shores of Japanese isles

War Dogs is built from ground-up as a flight simulator to offer the most immersive air combat experience, and unlike most air combat games on Mobile, War Dogs has both Arcade and Simulation grade controls for both rookies and experienced Ace Fighters. Take control of all three controls(pitch, roll and yaw) to pull off basic and advanced air combat manoeuvres like Barrel roll, Pitchback, Wingover and others

Features like Cockpit mode and War Emergency power will offer immersive Flight Simulator experience on par with PC/Console air combat games/simulators

Take off and land on Aircraft carriers. Torpedo enemy warships, Dive bomb enemy installations and destroy their airfields

For King and Country(British Campaign): Defend the British shores from German Luftwaffe using the battle tested Supermarine Spitfire aircraft. Beat back the Kriegsmarine using biplane torpedo bombers like Fairey Swordfish

Always in Action(German Campaign): Dominate the sun-scorched deserts of north africa for the Luftwaffe using the menacing Stuka Dive bombers and light and nimble Focke-Wulf FW 190s. Hold the relentless British Allied advance with surgical strikes

Beneath the Rising Sun(Japanese Campaign): Spearhead the historic assault on pearl harbor that pushed USA into the World War 2. Decimate the American pacific fleet with air-strikes on their warships, aircraft carriers and other key installations using Mitsubishi A6M Zero, Nakajima B5N and others airplanes

The Motherland Calls(Russian Campaign): Witness an entire nation mobilized to defend their motherland from the German blitzkrieg. Use the crippling winter in Russia to immobilize the German Wehrmacht and disrupt their supply lines. Deploy Iconic Russian aircraft like Ilyushin IL-2, Yakovlev Yak-3 and Petyakov PE2

Remember Pearl Harbor(American Campaign): Take the fight with the Imperial Japanese Navy to their shores. Use the full might of American Naval air power and avenge the attack on Pearl harbor. Deploy superior American aircraft like P-51 Mustang, F4U Corsair, P-47 Thunderbolt, SBD Dauntless, TBF Avenger, and the fittingly named Boeing B17 Flying Fortress

Multiplayer: Invite your friends and Battle out with them in Arena style Team battles. Choose your squad (2 Fighters, 1 Dive bomber, 1 Torpedo Bomber, 1 Heavy Bomber), and deploy them.

### 5/5 — Echt schmackhaft

*2026-07-10, version 1.162*

Fetzig und knorke was soll man sagen ne

### 5/5 — War thunder tested

*2026-06-13, version 1.162*

So good that even have the “test aircraft” on right corner like war thunder in pc

### 5/5 — Good but more challenges and more campaigns

*2026-06-01, version 1.162*

Literally the only way to get money in this game is by playing multiplayer. But sometimes you want to play against ai.

### 3/5 — Update the game

*2026-04-23, version 1.162*

This is a OK game but it just that their are not many levels and the game hasn’t been updated…still seeing if ussr and usa missions are coming out.

### 5/5 — Pas mal

*2026-02-16, version 1.162*

En vrai, je m’attendais à pire, mais le jeu est franchement bien les graphismes me rappellent les anciens jeux, certes mais je trouve que le jeu a du potentiel une campagne bien développé un bon tutoriel, franchement j’aime bien

### 3/5 — Not about dogfighting

*2026-01-23*

The campaign is short and barely even gives half the money you need for the cheapest torpedo bomber. The only PvP mode is target destruction, meaning you don’t need to be good at shooting, you just need to be lucky enough to not get shot while you fly your bomber to the enemy base. The targets are too durable to kill with anything other than a bomber, so once that’s gone, you gotta hope your teammates know how to fly theirs. Dogfight kills do nothing except earn you 50 paltry coins, and if your team doesn’t destroy as many targets, you don’t get any rewards at all. Even if you killed 9/16 enemy planes in the match. There’s no chat, so you can’t strategize, and the ubiquity of players using auto-aim means you can’t really outshoot enemies either. Planes need to be repaired after 2-3 matches of use, and this legitimately takes 5 HOURS. The only skips available are only given through level up, and not many are given at that. The plane models are well-made and the AA gun mechanics are cool, but aside from that, this experience has been a headache.

### 4/5 — Really good, but two issues

*2025-12-21*

This game is absolute PEAK. I mean come on, historically accurate planes, awesome campaigns, and great multiplayer style. One problem is the torpedo/dive bomb/bomb modes, when I switch to them there’s a chance that is may fire of of my armament, which can be awfully annoying in multiplayer when I have an enemy fighter on my tail. And the Russian and American campaigns; I’ve been playing for over two years and I still haven’t gotten either campaigns, were all waiting Tea Pot Games…

### 5/5 — Great game but devs abandoned it

*2025-12-17, version 1.162*

I think it’s a great game and all but I also this it’s bs this got abandoned

### 5/5 — Pretty good

*2025-10-25, version 1.162*

It’s awesome 💣👍

### 5/5 — Fun games

*2025-09-01, version 1.162*

This game should be a family tradition
