The developer behind the hit game World of Warplanes, has taken its realism in gaming a step further with a new mobile app that uses augmented-reality. Titled Apparition, users of the app will be able to go on a virtual tour of a Dornier Do 17, the only German light bomber of its class to have survived World War II. Combing efforts with the U.K.’s Royal Air Force Museum to salvage the plane, Wargaming has spared no expense in making sure the recovery was successful and is presenting the plane in an exhibit at the RAF museum.

The app will also allow users to travel to special locations around the world and take 3D pictures of the plane while there. Doing so will not only result in a very nice photo op, but also enter the user into a chance to be a part of the Dornier Do 17 exhibit when it opens in London later this year. The app was released for iOS and is available now.
