[p][/p][p]Vehicle History[/p][p][/p][p]The Czechoslovakian L-39 jet trainer replaced the L-29 Delfin. It was a completely new aircraft that featured a simple and reliable design and received a more powerful engine with almost twice the thrust as the L-29. The prototype first took to the skies on November 4th 1968 and serial production began in 1972. In 1974, development of a combat training variant called the L-39ZA began, equipped with a 23 mm GSh-23L cannon and reinforced chassis. Serial production of this variant began in 1980. Later on, special export variants were produced.[/p][p][/p][p]The L-39ZA was tested in the USSR in 1979, where it confirmed its effectiveness as a light attack aircraft. A total of 265 aircraft of this modification were built, entering service with the Air Forces of Czechoslovakia, the GDR, Bulgaria, Romania, Syria, Algeria among several other countries.[/p][p][/p][p]In the 1980s and 1990s, the L-39 proved itself as a universal platform for training and combat operations. Even after the collapse of the Warsaw Pact, the L-39 remains in demand — many of these aircraft are still in operation in various countries, and its successor, the L-39NG, L-59 and L-159 continue to build on the success of this legendary aircraft. Thanks to the combination of simplicity, reliability and versatility, the L-39 Albatros is rightfully considered as one of the best combat trainer aircraft in the world.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/4649813/12ab71ec34cfadf0e2c8fdec10f6eed518f5d7bf.jpg"][/img][/p]

Introducing the L-39ZA Albatros

[p][/p][p]Meet the combat variant of the famous Czechoslovakian L-39 trainer coming to the game in the Leviathans major update as a rank V premium for the USSR! This is the first fully domestically designed Czechoslovakian aircraft to arrive to the game and today pre-orders for it have started! So without further ado, let’s dive into the details.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/4649813/e122ecbba24a03d4aa47c6e896974acdff8b1391.jpg"][/img][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/4649813/c02b4aac8be190908af261d0dd329a4b9b945935.jpg"][/img][/p][p]The L-39ZA Albatros is a two-seat subsonic jet aircraft that was not only used for training pilots, but also was used as a standalone combat strike aircraft. The L-39ZA features a twin-barreled 23 mm cannon positioned under the cockpit at the center of the fuselage, so aiming this gun is pretty easy! Although having said this, the total ammunition is just 150 rounds, so you’re going to have to make sure that your shots count. For destroying ground vehicles, the L-39ZA features a good amount of bombs and rockets — up to 1000 kg of bombs ranging from 100, 250 and 500 kg, as well as up to 64 small S-5K rockets.[/p][p][/p][p]We’d like to note that in real life, the L-39ZA can indeed carry air-to-air missiles, however the introduction of these missiles to the aircraft in-game would inevitably lead to its Battle Rating increasing. Given the L-39ZA’s speed characteristics, it would make this aircraft easy prey for opponents if it were to have a higher Battle Rating. As a result, we’ve decided to introduce the ground attack variant of this aircraft, making it an excellent addition to ground force lineups at rank V. It will also be able to play effectively in air modes at its rank too.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/4649813/3b3d5cce066bc3c106794c63670e90a8475bd96c.jpg"][/img][/p][p]Speaking of speed, the L-39ZA can reach a maximum speed of around 760 km/h, where it can be controlled well throughout its entire speed range thanks to the short wings and high tail that provide excellent turn and roll rates. Plus, the L-39ZA has two positions for its flaps along with an air brake, helping to accurately line up on ground targets and give an additional advantage while turning in air battles.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/4649813/12caca5958fc7983264a5a14d49d742ad8381447.jpg"][/img][/p][p]The L-39ZA Albatros combat-trainer is coming to War Thunder in the Leviathans major update! From today, you can pre-order this strike aircraft to get unique bonuses, Golden Eagles and Premium Account time.
