Anti-aircraft warfare or counter-air defence is defined by NATO as "all measures designed to nullify or reduce the effectiveness of hostile air action." They include ground-and air-based weapon systems, associated sensor systems, command and control arrangements and passive measures (e.g. barrage balloons). It may be used to protect naval, ground, and air forces in any location. However, for most countries the main effort has tended to be 'homeland defence'. NATO refers to airborne air defence as counter-air and naval air defence as anti-aircraft warfare. Missile defence is an extension of air defence as are initiatives to adapt air defence to the task of intercepting any projectile in flight.
In some countries, such as Britain and Germany during the Second World War, the Soviet Union and NATO's Allied Command Europe, ground based air defence and air defence aircraft have been under integrated command and control. However, while overall air defence may be for homeland defence including military facilities, forces in the field, wherever they are, invariably deploy their own air defence capability if there is an air threat. A surface-based air defence capability can also be deployed offensively to deny the use of airspace to an opponent.
War Thunder is a World War II-inspired massively multiplayer online combat game developed by Gaijin Entertainment for Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, PlayStation 4 and Shield Android TV.
The game is modeled on a micro-transaction system but with the ability to get almost every feature of the game without paying. This may require players to complete certain challenges (such as shooting down a certain number of enemy aircraft or destroying a certain number of ground targets), or submitting user created content such as skins, or camouflage for vehicles. There may also be other celebratory events throughout the year such as commemorating historic figures in aviation or famous battles allowing players to win premium currency and premium vehicles without any expenditure.
There is also a referral service, whereby players can invite people to the game, earning both themselves and the new player an in-game bonus.
War Thunder uses 4 main currencies: Silver Lions, Golden Eagles, Research Points, and Convertible Research Points.

Keywords: independent-film, once-upon-a-time-in-the-titleFlaK the german short term for Flugabwehrkanone (Antiaircraft gun) This once-classified U.S. Air Force training film depicts evasive maneuvers used by bomber pilots to avoid being hit by enemy antiaircraft fire. The film includes animated illustrations by Disney studios and captured footage of enemy antiaircraft batteries in action
This educational video explains 88mm FLAK anti-aircraft technology totaling 15,000 defensive batteries usually deployed on the ground in rectangular formations using the infamous 88mm flak design. Early flak batteries used optical range finder technology, later being re re-engineered with sophisticated radar to assist with direction and range finding while delivering both timed and high-altitude fused shells with controlled fragmentation. It took an estimated 3,300 88mm shells to successfully bring down a high-altitude aircraft such as the Boeing B-17 aircraft.

World War 2 was a dark time for the planet. Racism was rampant, and people were being killed. This tower is one of the 8 complexes that Hitler had constructed to help protect major cities against and allied air attack during world war two. The Flakturms were extremely effective. Watch as I fly my drone around the towers and you can see all of its history in 4K. This is the drone I used for this video: http://amzn.to/2joH00G Here is the video game with the Tower in it: http://amzn.to/2kM27KG (Medal of Honor: Airborne) Here is some more reading material on the towers: https://jamescalbraith.com/2012/08/13/a-different-vienna-part-1-the-flakturms-or-dont-mention-ze-war/ Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flak_tower *Follow me for updates!* Instagram: http://instagram.com/zacksjerryrig Fac...

Auf Der Flucht
I say what ¨C what ya say?
Westberlin,
Neunzehnhundertsechzig sieben
Erster Eindruck: Gr¨¹ne Minna,
Strassensperre gegen Spinner
Habt Ihr Bock auf 'ne Tracht Pr¨¹gel,
Wir bedienen Euch nicht ¨¹bel, aha
Ecke Joachimstaler Kuhdamm
Ein Exzess,
Wer das Gas als letzter riecht,
Hat als erster den Prozess;
Ganz Berlin ist eine Wolke,
Und man sieht sich wieder'mal
Auf der Flucht
Z¨¹rich, Limmatquai,
Neunzehnhundertachtzig zwei,
Alles ist in Ordnung,
Nichts an Platz,
Ein Ende hat's mit dem Rabatz
Gewonnen hat die Steuer,
Und am Seeufer kein Feuer, aha
Das Fazit aus f¨¹nfzehn Jahren
Die Kontrolle zu bewahren,
Edle Werte zu geniessen,
Sieht man wohin Gelder fliessen
Schmeisst die Rock-Rabauken raus
Und renoviert das Opernhaus, aha
Was die Ordnung anbelangt,
Hat sich alles Gott sei Dank,
Fast wie ganz von Selbst ergeben,
Denn die starke Hand siegt eben
Haelt die Maerchenwelt beisammen
Und die Raeuber sind gefangen, aha
Und f¨¹r die Zukunft sei gesagt,
Sicher kommt 'mal wer und fragt,
Was die Jungwaehler so denken
ueber Kraefte, die sie lenken,
Schwere Wolken, Donnerschlag
Und wer sieht sich da jetzt
Auf der Flucht,
Auf der Flucht!
