On March 6th 1913, Alexander Ivanovich Pokryshkin was born. He was one of the most successful aces of the Second World war. His “thunderstorm formula” became a classic of aerial combat: “Altitude, speed, maneuver, fire!” Pokryshkin participated in 150 air battles and shot down approximately 50-60 enemy aircraft, for which he was awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union three times.
Pokryshkin’s P-39N-0 is temporarily available to purchase for 1,300 Golden Eagles!

- [p align="justify"][u][url="https://wiki.warthunder.com/Pokryshkin%27s_P-39N-0_(USSR)"]Pokryshkin in his P-39N-0[/url][/u] (rank III) achieved a significant portion of his aerial victories in 1943 in the P-39N-0 Airacobra. The aircraft’s dive speed, climb rate, and maneuverability, as well as its powerful 37 mm cannon perfectly matched the ace’s winning formula. Try to replicate it![/p]
