[2022] Zimbabwe Independence Day

A lil somethin somethin: You can find the details for this event on the announcement page here.

During the dissolution of the British Empire one of its colonies, South Rhodesia, decided to declare its independence unilaterally. This led to it being unrecognized by other countries during its entire existence. In 1979 it returned under British protectorate, and after elections on April 18th, 1980, it became independent again, this time under the name Zimbabwe.

To celebrate the Independence day of Zimbabwe, from April 18th (11:00 GMT) until April 21st (11:00 GMT), the Hunter FGA.9 of the Rhodesian Air Force will be available for purchase for Golden Eagles.

This Rank V jet fighter from the British research tree has great forward armament and is best suited for high speed boom and zoom attacks.
