“NIGHT WITCHES” IN THE BATTLE OF STALINGRAD
We’re starting this blog with some more important news from Stalingrad, and it comes with a feminine touch.
Meet the first female squad in Enlisted! The legendary Night Witches, crewing the Po-2 night bomber. This legendary aircraft will be the only premium squad for the Battle for Stalingrad on release, made up entirely of wartime Heroines.
588th Night Bomber Regiment
The regiment specialized in night raids and was made up of exclusively female members. The Germans nicknamed them the “Night Witches” for their highly original tactics: the regiment flew bombing raids at night and once at a certain distance from the target the pilots jammed the engine, glided toward enemy positions, and in complete silence dropped their bombs. The psychological effects of such attacks were extremely high.
Po-2
This aircraft is only simple in looks alone. The lightweight plywood and cloth clad machine is actually deceptively survivable, along with being very controllable and maneuverable. You’ll have no problem dodging the attacks of enemy fighters, and the rear gunner will cool down the ardor of even the most stubborn pursuers.
The Po-2 carries two 100 kg bombs and two 50 kg bombs.

BATTLE OF TUNISIA
Beaufighter Mk X and Attacker pilots’ squad
A pretty famous British attack aircraft with incredible frontal armament consisting of six machine guns and four 20mm Hispano cannons. And, of course, eight rockets for thick-skinned targets. However, the Beaufighter really puts the ‘heavy’ in heavy fighter, so the rear gunner will definitely come in handy here.

For ground targets, the 110 comes with two 250kg bombs. As well as an MG 13 gunner protecting the rear.
