Last year the game had a tank event featuring Russian and Chinese tanks performing tasks. It was created and published by a company called Gaijin Entertainment which is listed as Cyprus-based but was originally founded in Moscow, Russia, where it still has offices. War Thunder is a popular video game in which thousands of players around the world can simultaneously control aircraft, ground vehicles, and warships from the United States, Germany, Russia, Britain, China and other nations. The player identified the documents as belonging to a tank in Tidworth garrison in Wiltshire, home barracks of the Royal Tank Regiment which operates Challenger 2 tanks. “It certainly has not been released under FOI (Freedom of Information) previously or considered for redacting.” It said the MoD’s Defence Equipment and Support division had seen the documents and said they appeared “to be a genuine extract”. To support his argument the player posted pages from the official Challenger 2 Army Equipment Support Publication – a manual and maintenance guide.Įxcerpts from the documents, some of which were heavily redacted, appeared to show some documents had “UK RESTRICTED” label crossed out and a stamp of “UNCLASSIFIED” added, the website UK Defence Journal reported.
