How you manage to connect new bombers with this event?

No such plans AFAIK.

It's not insta win. First you need to gather 3000SP, then you need to manage to get above battlefield. It's far from insta-win situation.

Aircraft will be provided to you in same way as, for example in Navy battles. You do not need to have them unlocked in your tech tree nor have them in your line-up.

They will be fully spaded (except crews).

Same here

IMHO because when it happen, it's something memorable?

It's not a "million-to-one chance" that succeeds nine times out of ten like in Discworld, so AFAIK this event will be very rare, but still possible.

We present to you a new type of aircraft in War Thunder - an aircraft with variable sweep wings! We are going to discuss the first such aircraft today, the Soviet Su-17M2 jet fighter-bomber that is going to appear in the game with the release of the next major update “Ixwa Strike”.

Su-17M2, strike fighter, USSR, VI rank

Pros

Variable swept wings.


Huge variety of suspended weaponry.


Destructive air-to-surface missiles

Cons

No flares

What is not possible?

I (personally) see it like this.

It's super hard to collect +3000SP in one game. And if you find a way to do it too often, (AFAIK) that limit will be increased.

Now, as some of you said, lets imagine that you drag your team to victory. Sometimes you have such battles when you feel like J.Rambo and you are able to kill anyone who is unlucky to face you. You do your best, but sadly majority of your teammates, not. Still, you protect that spawn point like you would protect your newest GPU from scalpers. Field around cap is full of enemy tank corpses.

Then, some random

With the arrival of swept-wing aircraft, jets could push on to the next level… and one of the most well-known of those swept-wing fighters is the MiG-15… and the hero of this video, the legendary F-86 Sabre.
