The United States of America is a country represented in World of Tanks, World of Warplanes, and World of Warships.

World of Tanks[]

The U.S.A.'s tanks can be found within the American Tanks category.

American tanks generally are well rounded and can adapt to situations relatively quick.

American light tanks feature great mobility and nice armament and depression angles. They can be used to passive and special active scout. Reaching to tier IX and X are two tanks that are only known to contain such large calibre guns.

American medium tanks are well rounded, featuring armor that can pull off some bounces, guns that do the job, and mobility that is good enough to respond to changing situations. They can act as front line supporters, or flankers, as the player wishes to play the tank.

American heavy tanks are also well rounded, featuring good mobility for their class, good firepower, and great protection. However, all the heavy tanks have a distinctive strong turret that can be combined with great gun depression to hull down. In such a position, they can be very hard to take down without artillery support.

American artillery are powerful, featuring hard hitting guns and decent accuracy. Low tiers, they are somewhat inferior to those of the German low tier Artillery, but at tier V and above, they can have a run for their money, featuring large calibre guns with large splash, especially the M44 and its successors.

Currently as of now, the United States has the most powerful tank in the world, being the M1 Abrams Main Battle Tank.

World of Warplanes[]

The U.S.A.'s warplanes can be found within the American Warplanes category.

World of Warships[]

The U.S.A.'s warships can be found within the American Warships category.

The only nation that was able to fight and defeat the Japanese, the work was credited to the powerful United States Navy (Holding the crown for the biggest and most advanced navy in present-day). 

American destroyers are quite modest, attempting to balance between torpedoes, artillery, speed, and some protection. Up to the Clemson, they hold some quite underwhelming artillery (In which all feature the standard 102mm), but some good torpedo armament and speed. Tier V and beyond, they hold a greater balance between artillery and torpedoes, mounting some quite fast-firing 127mm guns and 533mm torpedoes.

The cruisers are quite sophisticated. If one were to look at how American cruisers evolved up to the end of WWII, they would notice how the roles changed from escorts to antiaircraft. This is seen with the branch split at the Omaha (In which torpedo tubes would be omitted from all succeeding cruisers, except for the Atlanta); the Worcester and Des Moines lines. The former line features 152mm Dual-Purpose guns and some excellent antiaircraft suites. This becomes an important asset when combating groups of enemy aircraft. At tier X, the Worcester features a large array of antiaircraft weapons capable of mowing down groups of aircraft that fly over her. On the latter line, they feature the single-purpose 203mm guns, enabling the said ships to duel with anything to some effectiveness. Obviously, they have less anti-air capabilities than the Worcester-line ships, but they still can do some anti-air duty to some effectiveness. The Des-Moines features a jack-of-all-trades play style; arming autoloading 203mm guns, decent anti-air, and good armor.

American battleships evolve from slow, hulking floating batteries to formidable 'fast' battleships. The most famous would be the Iowa class, capable of reaching an unheard speed of 33 knots maximum (In fact, the fastest ever speed for a battleship would be set by the USS New Jersey, setting the record at a whopping 35.2 knots; faster than the Shiratsuyu and even some cruisers!).

American carriers hold some large squads of air power, and the carriers themselves have some decent armor (Featuring the armored flight deck; in which the Japanese would only soon implement later, replacing the old wooden flight decks) and otherwise average secondaries of 12.7cm guns.
