On November 25th, 1942, an agreement was signed between the USSR and France concerning forming a French aviation squadron on the eastern front. It was named “Normandie” after the French province whose coat of arms — a red shield with two golden lions — became the basis for the squadron’s insignia.

The squadron participated in the Battle of Kursk, Operation Bagration and the East Prussia offensive. For valor in the battle of the Niemen river the unit that by that time had grown to be a regiment was named “Normandie — Niemen”, and its members were given the highest Soviet honors.

The regiment is still a part of the French Air Forces under the name Régiment de chasse RC 2/30 Normandie-Niemen. In War Thunder the aircraft that the aces from this regiment used have unique historic “Normandie — Niemen” camouflages that you can ... Read more

Thus November 4th, the day that the armistice went into effect, is celebrated as National Unity and Armed Forces Day.

Until 20:00 GMT on the 14th of November - get a gift decal “Approved by Wiki: M-51 (W)” with the purchase of M-51 (W) Pack.

M-51 (W)
Call it simply “Super Sherman”! Israel’s design prowess also affected the legendary American M4 Sherman by turning the compact medium tank into a platform for the monster 105mm cannon from the French AMX-30.

All other minor modifications pale into insignificance against this gun. Obviously the tactics in the M-51 (W) should be appropriate - you are an excellent covering fighter who is guaranteed to take out several enemy tanks in a battle.

For those who are researching Israeli vehicles, love Shermans in all their manifestations or just like vehicles of unusual shapes and sizes. About the rest we are telling you in t... Read more
