What Makes Warplanes: WW2 Dogfight Stand Out
Grab the control yoke of a warplane and jump into the battlefields of World War 2 in this thrilling combat flight action game. In each of the campaigns for USA, Great Britain, USSR, Germany and Japan you will assume the role of a pilot and squadron leader of an elite air force unit, established for the most dangerous and strategic missions that can turn the tide of war.
In Warplanes: WW2 Dogfight you take control of over 50 historical airplanes – from classic fighters to light and heavy bombers. Spitfire, P-51, Hurricane, Lancaster, Il-2 “Shturmovik”, La-5FN, Ju-87 “Stuka”, Fw 200 “Condor” and B-17 “Flying Fortress” are only a few of the beautiful machines that you can fly, repaint, customize and upgrade.
Gather a squadron of the best pilots and train them to assist you in the most risky missions. If you need an additional adrenaline rush, you can go on a mission by yourself and rule the sky.
Build your base – construct additional hangars and structures for your pilots and crew. Ensure its safety by building anti-aircraft artillery and barrage balloons. Develop your management skills to cut costs and manage your unit more efficiently, and become the ultimate squadron leader.
Play through varied missions in each of the available campaigns – experience deadly encounters with enemy fighters, protect ground structures from bombers, fight over the sea and weaken the enemy’s navy, pilot bombers and destroy targets of strategic value. These are only a few examples of multiple mission types that you will experience in the beautiful landscapes of Europe, Africa and Asia. Pick the best planes and pilots for the job and fly over the cold Russian tundra or sunny deserts of Egypt. Fight over the Pacific Ocean and experience the war from the perspective of American and Japanese pilots.

Community Insight:
Its a really good game just wish there were more planes but really cool game.
This is a great game but it would be great if you could make a this kind of ui with more modern planes.
It seems like a fun game but we think it would be more fun if it was easier to control on mobile.
The game is marvelous pretty much for all devices its just that can the developer add a turret deadzone which basically mean that some areas cant be covered by the turret gun it would make the game more realistic and fun if its a setting and also the consolidated pby Catalina has 3rd gunner on the bottom end.
Its a wonderful game. We were wondering if the developers could add the p 61 black widow into americas arsenal next update.
This game is great; users must command an elite squadron in a major World War 2-era nations airforce. Going on a campaign, users are eventually able to purchase a plethora of aircraft and grow or improve their arsenal. Ill cut to the chase, thoughthis game is NOT optimized for the dimensions of modern iPhones; and in our experience this has applied to the iPhone 16 (Pro) whose Dynamic Island and rounded edges are not properly accounted for in the games controls. The design-based shortcomings are not dealbreakers yet, but seeing them fixed would perfect this game.
Its a really good game, love the simplicity, but theres this one bug that after a ad, itll dicebomv our plane and it WONT pull up, like it ignores controls, forcing us to restart e app after watching a 60 second ad.
Fix the bots please because they keep flying around us were to the point we cant shoot them and they cant shoot us and please add more stuff.
What would be an interesting suggestion is a Cold War and modern plane game similar tot his one (Cold war and modern be their separate games).
Its a REALLY good game, we love the graphics and the details and the fact that you can create your own fighter squadron and have them assist you in battle, but it would be really cool if you made a version of this but with modern fighter planes like with the A10 Warthog and the F22 Raptor, because most games dont have modern fighter planes that arent controlled by other people, this makes the experience boring and hard to play and you can only control one plane which is kinda boring, but if you made a version of this game but with modern fighter planes we would REALLY appreciate it (:.
This game is awesome. The gameplay is as good or better than anything else out there. Can use Xbox controller, which is freaking awesome! Warplanes for the win.
Idk how to start when writing this but this is a really great games that is really good when and when you dont got nothing to do when youre bored but there are few problems we wish this developer could change in this game to make it more interesting (#1 to make you buy more of the same planes because every plane you buy you can only buy one (#2 to be able have a bigger base and have like a global ranking (#3 we really wish that after our plane its really damaged or when youre protecting the base we wish you could land on the base that would be really cool (#4 that all the enemies could shoot at you and make you more damage like the AA vehicles those barely make you damage and the enemie fighters too they dont even hit you (#5 we wish that there was more maps and more enviroments and maps that would be really cool because every map and enviroment is the same and that kinda makes it boring (#5 we wish that there was more type of planes like the bomber that bombed japan by example that would be cool (#6 that the bombs made more damage or like bigger bombs that destroyed everything like nuclear bombs (#7 that the buildings on this game be more realistic or like bigger cities because every city on the game is so tiny that could be a better thing that would make the game better (#8 that there should be more cruiser or chips when youre doing a naval mission because theres only a few (#9 that the voices of the ones that talk in the radio be different and said different things they all sound the same and they say the same things we wish they changed that (#10 that when youre about to do a mission youre plane is outside of the base or that youre able to drive youre plane and take flight from youre base and thats all we wish they changed about this game its an amazing game already but those things would make it even better and in our opinion this is one of the best ww2 plane games ever.
It is so fun we like the controls and it feels so realistic.
Finally, we found a real worthy on It's very interesting to play a decent game on your phone.
Hello! We have been playing this game for a loooooooooong time and we cant believe how great it is! We play on a 14 year old iPad, and it still works like a dream! This is so far our most favorite airplane game ever.
Can you please do a modern day version of this game and can you add planes like these f15 f16 f22 SU57 SU27 f35 f18 yf12.
We love the game, perfect and best game for offline. Highly recommend for long road trips. We would ask this for the devs. Devs could you add tokens for every plane instead of just the p-51. What we mean is like, have a hellcat squadron token, or a corsair squadron token instead of just the ones we got right now.
Ive been playing this game for a few days this game is effort put into it we have the b-29 bomber in the game of course it micro transactions but they are not needed to beat the game.Fun game 10/10, this game isnt greedy like the others.
Can you add remote control access for warplane WW2 dogfight.
This Game is very fun and cool but we wish you could add more aircraft to the game like the P-47D we love that plane and its not in the game and add the JU-88 bomber for Germany. Although it is a very good game.
Let us tell you how much we love. First great graphics. Second such a lovely game about ww2.
We love this game but we would like more planes and same with the WW1 that you made they are both awesome but please add more planes and we havent checked but do you have the j47 Stuka plane.
The game is very realistic and fun and simple to play. Unlike War Thunder and other plane games, its a lot easier to play. But Id like to see some adjustments. You could perhaps add the French and Italian army into the game. And you could remove the Italian Macchi MC202 Folgore to the Italian side, and not the German. And maybe add some more planes to all sides.
The gameplay is really great would highly recommend this game to any WW2 War Plane lovers and we have enjoyed it very much and we would love to see them make a WW2 Tank one day as we will love to play 5 Stars.
So first we didn't like the game but when we liked fighter jets we LOVED THE GAME SO MUCH.
This game is honestly one of the best mobile plane games ever if not the best.
This is a great game but we have one suggestion. For the Americans instead of the modern markings on the planes maybe you could have the WW2 era markings. So besides that really good game.
We play warplanes on vr an d looove the games.
We think the Houghton 229 Will be a great add mint to Germany its a really interesting design it would be a really nice if you add it and please dont make it behind a pay wall please.
This game overall is fun but we wish they would add more planes, different tactics for the AIs to do on your side and the enemy fighter planes to actually fight back.
This game is entertaining in our opinion it has more gameplay than ads which Im very happy about thanks for the small amount of ads its good enough for us to be satisfied thanks.
It is a really good game not to easy and not to hard but if you destroyed the last enemy and then you crashed you should not fail the mission, or if you are close to crashing and you switch your plane BEFORE the crash you again should NOT fail the mission.
Good game overall, but one mission the enemy bombers were Flying Fortresses and we were only up to hayabusa and so we took our j2m raden over and got shredded in less than a second by the 15 ish mgs firing at the same plane (ours) and for the people who like to read comments, a goot strategy is to boost up to an enemy so you will crash but at the last second shoot rocket, or you could use rockets for the intended reason wich is ground attack Edit 1: the fw 190 (im assuming its a1) has 4 machine guns and 2 cannons, not the other way around.
If you can adjust the key position, then the game will be better.
When we played on the German side we didnt see a German Fokker dr1 in the store co please add it.
This is the first game we got on our, phone, and also the most fun, we would have given it 5 stars, but the game hasnt gotten a big update since we got it. An update would be appreciated by most of us who play it.
On the HS 129 it says it needs 5 crew to use when it just doesnt. Im pretty sure its never needed that much care so Im assume its a glitch. Plz fix.
The game is a good game. The only thing we would recommend is adding more unlockable free planes to extend gameplay.
This in general is a great game love the different planes and the little info bits about the war but we wish that it was controller compatible. If there was a way to connect controller without having to be on a console that would be great. Altogether a great game though.
Great game BUT it was some flaws that NEED to be fixed and number 1. Hit boxes on the ground. We love how the tanks fight each other or shoot at passing convoys or trains but the fact they cant move is somewhat annoying also if the train or convoy is just slightly elevated they cant be hit by the tanks which is dumb in our opinion. It would be epic to see tanks fighting and trying to flank each other or see them pursuing a convoy or train. Number 2. WHY ARE THE EPIC PlANES NOT IN EDITOR!? We want to have a bunch F-84s go toe to toe with the enemy or have a squadron of the fridging German UFOs like WHY! WHY! Cant we have that we want to pursue a bunch Pe-7s (sorry if thats wrongly spelled) with our German ufos! Anyway number 3. Why do the AI fighters not attack other fighter planes? If there is one bomber that is the only thing they go after and even if it leaves or is shot down they just do nothing but spin until they are killed! It makes way too easy to kill if 1 bomber is around! Well those are our only problems and if its a small crew behind this thats ok but please try to update this game when you get the time and sorry if we are sending this while you are busy updating so if you are here are our ideas and great job keep up the good work now Im off to pursue some ishaks with UFO! Have a good day and hopefully life.
Pretty accurate and very fun only inaccurate part we found was the hs129 which has a 75mm canon but in the game it doesnt really do much. Theres also the fact that its pretty repetitive but still a very fun game definitely recommend to others.
Let us start off by saying that this game is super fun and you guys definitely got some stuff right, although we do request there would be a game difficulty mode in the game where you decide whether or not you would have to pay for repairs. Also we would like it if you can decide what historic battle you would want to fight in.
This game is great but it needs more stuff and can you make it so that you can be a AA gun or anything that is powerful like a tank or aa vehicle and the decals need to be more realistic and more like war thunder decals so what we want is better decals and we want to put decals on any part of the plane so yeah if this actually happens we will download it on all of our iPads and rate it 5 star Bye and we hope it happens.
This is a good no Wi-Fi game, but it gets easy and repetitive. It is fun for the first 7 days but then you get all of the planes and there is no challenge. Needs more content.
The game is actually pretty good, one of the better ones out there now that Skies of Glory is out of commission. Some key improvements could make the game significantly better. Most importantly, we need a way to calibrate the gimbal for flight. Even if the gimbal is only calibrated at the same time as its activated after pressing the acceleration button. It would also be nice to see a less assisted flight mode that allows us to perform full acrobatic maneuvers. Other than that, no real complaints.
Calibration settings. You should be able to adjust the speed the plan maneuvers.
Im with Luciest Duck. Its a good game but we dont like playing a game that we bounce off the ground. Its not as realistic enough for us but a beginner would enjoy this game. We would like to go into more depth but Im not going to give a bad review. Its not like some other games that you can fly more realistically from inside and out of the cockpit.
The graphics are above average but be aware the gameplay is dumbed-down. You arent going to take off or land, no throttle, and no flaps. The aircraft performance is cartoonisha P-38 doesnt have the roll rate of an Extra EA-300.
So, we reinstalled a game (planes) that we played several times ago and when we opened shop menu, there was an all German premium planes item, we were interested and purchased it, but when we opened the hangar nothing changed at all, and no new planes came! All planes were bought or opened through the game process earlier! We payed twice for what we already had.
This game is great but we spent 3.99$ and our purchase didnt work and idk if its a bug but it needs to get fixed.
