Is Girls Und Panzer Based on War Thunder?

[Jörf]

Girls Und Panzer includes tanks seen in War Thunder, so they have to be connected, right?

Neither, actually. GuP was conceived when neither WoT, nor WT were all that popular in Japan.

It was made to cater to the long-standing 'moe+military' otaku crowd, and was infact a continuation of a trend showcased in older shows in the Moe Military genre, like Strike Witches, Sora no Woto or Uppotte!.

Infact it was because of GuP that more and more people in Japan began to play WoT, and Wargaming decided to have a local office in Japan for better collaboration. War Thunder, on the other hand took off because of it's collaboration with DMM.

Yes, that is correct. Which is why we'll soon have cross-promotion event in War Thunder in which you can win some of the iconic vehicles and camos from the anime, like the pink M3 Lee and red/yellow flag decorated StuG III, with the Italian Carro Veloce CV.33 and Finnish BT-42 (rank 1 and 2 respectively) being the two event specific vehicles you can earn.

The event itself will be based on the battles from the 2015 movie "Girls und Panzer der Film", and will of course be a mix of arcade, realistic and simulator battles, with new battles every day. For example, the first battle of the event will be the exhibition match from the very start of the movie, with the British and Russians versus the Ooarai Girls Academy and the Japanese; and of course only the tanks used in that battle will be allowed.

Since the Ooarai Girls Academy uses a collection of tanks from many different countries, don't be surprised to see tanks from the same nation fighting against each other. Look forward to it.

They based the tanks in real life off Girls Und Panzer, Hitler and Roosevelt in particular were big fans.

Girls und panzer was actually the reason why WWII started. Hitler became infuriated when his waifus from Kuromorimine Girls High School lost the sensha-dō. Thus he unleashed his anger upon the world.
