In Arcade Ground Forces - tank handling is simplified (tanks move faster, and turn faster than they would do in reality), spotted enemy vehicles are displayed on the minimap and have visible nametags above them when aimed at. The bomber's gunners are active but most of the fighters and howitzers do not pose a direct threat to the player. The main objective is to defend your team's base from growing waves (15 in Air Assault or 11 in Ground Assault) of enemy AI-controlled bombers, fighters, and howitzers or tanks and fighters in Ground Assault. There is also an unlimited number of respawns at 80% AB Silver Lion repair cost.
What is different is that this mode is for either random or premade team of 10 and requires at least some teamwork.

Multiple views are available third person view, cockpit view, gunner view (if the aircraft has a gunner) and virtual cockpit view (if the aircraft does not have a cockpit model the virtual cockpit will be used). bombers are not as manoeuvrable as fighters), and ammunition reloads after a certain period of time without players returning to an airfield. in very high-speed dives, planes do not have their wings ripped off and are still controllable), but retain some realism (e.g. Damage models, flight models, and physics are greatly simplified (e.g. It is possible to see aircraft of the same type on opposing teams. Tag enemy fighters before they reach you, make sure your destination is marked but most importantly, make sure you have the right team for the job.In arcade mode, the game draws two teams of players (up to 32 people) with planes of different nations with similar battle ratings.
