Does everyone already know that a new aircraft, the Mistel 2, has appeared in War Thunder? This aircraft has quickly attracted players' attention with its unusual appearance and history. It is not a standard bomber but a rather unusual combination of two aircraft joined into a single system. The Mistel 2 became the main reward in the special Dreams Come True event, dedicated to the game's 14th anniversary. So today, we'll discuss how to obtain this vehicle and what makes it so valuable.
The Mistel 2 is a German premium Rank III bomber. Its design consists of an Fw 190 A-8 fighter and a Ju 88 G-1 bomber.
This exact combination of aircraft was used as a special strike system during World War II. This vehicle stands out from the others because of its unusual design, as nothing quite like it had appeared in the game before. This makes it an interesting and valuable addition to any German aviation collection. On top of that, it is a premium vehicle with its own place among the game's Rank III aircraft.
The main way to obtain the aircraft is by participating in the special Dreams Come True: Mistel 2 event. It runs from October 28 to November 11, 2026. To unlock the reward, you need to earn mission points in air battles and progress through the event stages. Each stage requires 35,000 mission points. You can participate in Arcade, Realistic, and Simulator air battles using vehicles of Rank III or higher. Eligible event vehicles from Ranks I and II also count.
The Mistel 2 is awarded for completing the sixth stage. Remember to claim your rewards manually after unlocking each stage. If you don't have enough time to complete the tasks, unfinished stages can be purchased with Golden Eagles until November 14. The cost depends on how many points you have already earned: the closer you are to completing a stage, the cheaper it will be to unlock.
So, why is the Mistel 2 so rare? The main reason is that it is only available for a limited time. It is not a regular vehicle that you can simply research; it is an exclusive reward from a special event. Once the event ends, there will be no regular way to obtain the aircraft unless the developers introduce another opportunity. In addition, its unique design, combining two different aircraft, makes the Mistel 2 especially interesting for collectors and fans of German aviation.
For now, all that's left is to wait for the next event and complete all the required tasks to add this highly desirable vehicle to your collection.
