A new video released today for World of Warplanes, Wargaming.net's airborne MMO, takes viewers on a guided tour through the history of aerial combat.
Between explosions and gunfire, the video chases dogfights with propellor-driven aircraft from biplanes in the American southwest to the stalwarts of the Imperial Japanese Navy in World War II's Pacific Ocean Theater.
Polygon spoke with the developers at Wargaming.net earlier this year about launching World of Warplanes, so be sure to check out the feature before you strap on your flak jackets and check out the video above.
