During the development of the Leopard 2 project, German engineers came up with several different hull and turret designs as well as respective combinations. This led to equally many different prototype designs being tested. Among t...

I will reveal you a secret. But promise to do not pass it further!

And for real, that topic has been raised many times. There is no "bad luck", no "secret code" nor anything like that. Simply when you launch booster, you try harder, usually too hard and you fail. And one more, very important thing - with big boosters, you simply "record" the fight in your memory. It's not any random battle for you, it's booster battle - something special for you, so you start to search for excuse for any failure everywhere except in your in game behaviour. Out of nowhere that tree was never there, the sun is too bright and all that no pen shots! Like cmon, normally you are death machine one shot everything, but in this battle?! No way!

Pro tip - just do not attach importance to it. I use smaller boosters in flight, bigger one when I got more than 1 vehicle to spade and that works fine for me....

HMS Mohawk, a Tribal-class destroyer, comes as one of the prizes of the “Export order” craft event!

HMS Mohawk, destroyer, Britain, rank II. Premium

Pros

Excellent main calibre suite


Premium bonuses

Cons

Few torpedoes

History

The destroyer Mohawk was laid down as one of the Tribal class destroyers on July 16th, 1936 at the Southampton shipyard. Like all destroyers of the series, the Mohawk differed from most ships of her class in high firepower of the main calibre and good torpedo armament, while maintaining a displacement under the London Treaty - no more than 1,850 tons. Immediately after construction, Mohawk joined the destroyer flotilla in the Mediterranean. Before WWII started, th...

Due to issues with the "Modesty" task, yesterday we have decided to switch it with the next task. The Modesty task will become available from 22nd . We are sorry for inconvenience.

In the 1950s, Sweden, like many other countries, found itself in a pretty tough spot. Europe was caught between two superpowers — the USSR with its satellite states, and the US with the North Atlantic Alliance. One of the biggest things they needed was a domestically produced tank, suited for use in the mountainous terrain of their country. The efforts to develop a new tank started!

On the 15th of September, 1940, over one and a half thousand experienced pilots from Great Britain with some of its friends and Germany entered battle in the skies over Southern England! This battle became a turning point in the attempts of the German command to completely destroy the Royal Air Force.

Great Britain withstood this battle, and to this day, every 15th September, the Allied nations and the whole world remember this heroic feat and commemorate "Battle of Britain day".

Until 07:00 GMT on the 17th of September. Participate in 3 battles using British aircraft of rank II or higher (with an in-game activity of at least 70%) and get the “Battle of Britain Memorial Flight” badge.

Improvements and fixes

A bug has been fixed when, if a voluminous shell hits a cross section area of 3 or 4 armoured elements, a shell didn’t form fragments after penetrating the armour.


A bug has been fixed where, when switching from commander’s sight to binoculars with “Save direction while switching current trigger” option enabled, the view in binoculars was directed to the east.


A bug has been fixed that resulted in locking on enemies nearby the selected one with the “Automatic target lock” option enabled in Naval battles.


A bug has been fixed that resulted in incorrect range correction at nearer distances in Naval battles: rotating down in some cases increased correction, rotating up decreased it.


A bug has been fixed with missing grass on any graphic presets available on the Linux version.

In majority of my battles I need to wait 10-15 seconds before I can do first spawn because server is waiting for other players. So your idea is implemented in the game since years. You simply got too slow connection/load game times to notice it.

Maybe try to switch off Join in Progress functionality. It should solve your issue in most cases.

Previously, we invited you into a discussion concerning potential BR range changes in air SB sessions. Now, it’s time to vote how these changes will be implemented.

First, let us tell you a little more about this mechanic - judging by your feedback, not everyone fully understands the essence of the proposal.

Currently, sessions are divided into 7 fixed BR ranges: 1.0 - 2.0, 2.3 - 3.3, 3.7 - 4.7, 5.0 - 6.3, 6.7 - 7.7, 8.0 - 9.3, 9.7 - 11.0. At the same time, to play in each of the indicated ranges, you must have at least one aircraft from this range, but you can also use any aircraft with a BR below the minimum. We do not plan to abandon this mechanic - in the case of BR range rotation, the aircraft with BR lower than the minimum can still be used in the session.

Additionally, now aircraft with a minimum BR in the range are practically unclaimed, because they are often much inferior ...

The terms for the “Invite a friend” program have been changed.

Now, to achieve a first stage reward (70,000 SL), an invited friend has to achieve rank III in air/ground forces.


Stage II reward (300,000 SL, 100 GE) is granted for rank IV;


Stage III (2,500 GE) for rank VII.

Requirements for naval forces' progress remains unchanged.

Since yesterday we noticed issues with some Forum Sections and functions.
We are working to fix the issue ASAP.

Sorry for inconvenience

A bug has been fixed due to which disabling of the ‘first gun; of the ship resulted in disabling of the ranging shot option.


A position of a sound of an aircraft, exceeding Mach1, no longer depends on its distance from a listener and doesn’t attributed to the aircraft position.
