How exactly does a correct and historical aircraft = "Gaijin hate British" ?


The FAA operated regular land based Hurricanes as well as Sea Hurricanes.


Im not really sure if you are being truly serious with some of the comments here. Tomorrow is Battle of Britain day, the most famous and recognized day regarding the Battle and commemorations for the battle usually take place in September.



Outside of the old Chronicles (which was task specific) events typically dont count towards challengers.


The event is there as an extra bonus for those who enjoy historical battles.

This is totally contradictory. You claimed originally "Gaijin hate British" because you were unaware the FAA used Hurricane Mk Is and now its because there is no reward plane for the Germans?


Quite how that translates into being something against the British im unsure. There is no reward plane for the Germans for this event because it celebrates the 80th anniversary of the battle which was a British victory and German loss. This it makes no sense.


The new premium Hurricane is an entirely historical aircraft and appropriate for the event as the FAA also made contributions both in pilots and aircraft to the battle.



Im not sure if this is once again a serious claim as there are barely any mentions of these aircraft outside of this forum area. If you look at the forum in general, website, Reddit, Social Media etc you would see seeing the larger picture that us Mirage / T-90 / 2A6 / MiG-23 and the multitude of other requests that far outweigh Fulmars, Albacores or Skuas.


Once again, we understand that you yourself and a group of people want to see these aircraft, but please do not claim they are demanded by the community as a whole because thats very inaccurate.



Nope, my mistake, that was the Monty Pythons Life of Brian Corrected thanks



We already have several Battle of Britain skins in game and this was opportunity to include the unsung hero of the battle on the British side (as the Spitfire gets all the glory normally) in a unique representation reflecting the contributions of the Fleet Air Arm also to the battle.

Firstly, im not a developer, but a Community Manager.


Secondly, ive responded several times on the subject of all of the aircraft you have mentioned and other similar ones very clearly that whilst we dont have any current / immediate plans for them, we also dont exclude the possibility of adding them in the future.

6 people have voted on this.


We cannot reasonably implement or consider every vehicle after 6 people request them.


The topic as a whole is mostly suggesting aircraft that have already been suggested previously and answered before.


Again, its not to say that wont come. But its unreasonable to expect all of these aircraft, particularly many that most people dont even know about / ask about to come soon.

Once again, this was the commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the battle that ended in a victory for the RAF. Not Germany. Germany did indeed partake and that's why they are in the Battle of Britain events going on as part of this event. So they are very much included.


It's also worth pointing out that almost every event we have includes a German reward vehicle of some kind, so Germany has had more than it's fair share.


There was only ever going to be 1 reward vehicle for this event so it made 100 percent sense to be a British example. We cannot simply make multiple reward vehicles for every event all the time. We often have smaller events with a single reward. We have had multiple events this year with lots of rewards.


As for the decal, what's ugly to you is not to others. Lots of people like it and have reacted very well to it. Nobody is forcing you to use it if you don't wish too and there are plenty of other decals for you to use with new ones being added on a near weekly basis.


This one was a special commemorative one.
