The new Battle Pass season celebrates the French Foreign Legion, a military unit made up mostly of foreigners. This season’s top reward is the M46 Patton medium tank — Pattons were the last foreign tanks used by France, hence the name of The Last Legionnaire!

To receive Battle Pass rewards, you’ll need to regularly log into the game and complete tasks and challenges to progress. Each level of the Battle Pass will earn you a reward, be it a player icon, loading screen, title, decals, decorations, or premium vehicles!

Please note: We’ve created a trophy for premium vehicles that includes three Battle Pass rewards from previous seasons that were not available on the marketplace, as well as one event vehicle. Opening this trophy will guarantee you either the Type T-51a, Voroshilov, LVT-4/40 or Type K-8 No.13i, if ...

Half trained, more like terminal lance level, Expert level a proper E-4 Mafia candidate there.

That would be in the very early tanks, just wondering why it would effect tanks of tier 4 and above because that would be motorized

No. Premium vehicles operate on same level as any other vehicle in game. All they give is more SL/RP and sometimes some specific mechanics (we have a lot of event/premium ground vehicles with ungieded rocket launchers for example).

Welcome to the 155th War Thunder Steam Screenshot Competition!
We loved seeing the screenshots that you captured last week! This week is all about the smaller calibers.

Load alot of smoke for the 75mm. (I know sound a bit off why not take some real ammo but hear me out). At the Maus's br the 75 and the ammo for it is only good against wheelie things and the occasional very lucky shot (especially since the reticle ballistics are tied to the main gun unless you are using the seperate control function)
What I do in both my Maus and E-100, since they are both soo slow, is use the 75 to literally blind the enemy team with smoke from the 75 as I slow roll at them. This forces them to move and pop out at me where I can shoot them with the main gun when its reloaded. This also saves the main smoke grenades for when Im tracked in the open (and allows me to smoke up the guy that shot me or cover those ridgelines so my team can get to places to help). Be annoying with it, be constant with it. They already know you are on the map and what you are driving. So unbalance the match as far as you can by making them as blind as you can while you pick them of... Read more

Italian aircraft especially low rank is actually quite simple and easy. They are the only nation except japan (in fact japan got this idea from italy) in where they utilize HE _HE-I or HE- F) ammo in calibers of .50 caliber. TLDR the .50s have a good edge, and you get them right out the box at the reserve level. Yeah bombers in the early ranks defensively are a bit meh. but if are just looking to grind out the tree I think you will find the fighter lines more than capable.


Aircraft
  • J7W1 — engine characteristics and the effect of the airspeed pressure at the altitude limit have been brought to the parameters of a similar engine, found on the A7M2. Max speed has been set to 740 km/h at 9200 m at 100% thrust. Weight has been adjusted and an issue that caused the landing gear elements to be visible through the wing in turns has been fixed. (Report[community.gaijin.net]).
  • Rafale C F3 — turn speed has been adjusted according to available video materials by ~ +0.5.....

This is the FV4030/3, designed as an upgrade of the Chieftain tank for Iran. However with no deliveries fulfilled, the FV4030/3 later evolved into the Challenger 1 tank we all know and love.

FV4030/3 Shir 2: An Event Vehicle MBT for Great Britain at Rank VI At a glance:
  • 120 mm gun with the L23 APFSDS shell.
  • 1200 HP engine.
  • Chobham composite armor.
  • Lacking thermals.
Vehicle History
[expand type=details]
In the 1970s, the Iranian Government put in an order to upgrade their existing Chieftain main battle tanks, specifically requesting better armor and a new engine. Development of new armor was carried out by the Military Vehicles and Engineering Establishment (MVEE) in Chobham, Surrey. This development produced the FV4030/3 (Shir 2), which featured brand-n...

Meet the M46 Patton that saw service with France! Today, we’ll take a look at the main reward for the next Battle Pass, The Last Legionnaire!

M46 Patton: A Premium Medium Tank for France at Rank IV At a glance:
  1. Strong HEATFS and APHE shells.
  2. Good protection at the front of the turret.
  3. Effective mobility.
Vehicle History
[expand type=details]
In 1945, a program to create a new medium tank for the U.S. Army based on the M26 Pershing was launched. The Detroit Arsenal built 10 prototypes with a new engine, slightly longer chassis and a modernized M3A1 gun with a new muzzle brake. The prototypes were submitted for testing in 1949, but even before being completed, the vehicle was approved for serial production and standardized as the M46 General Patton medium tank. M46 tanks took part in ... Read more
