Discounts, a Decal and Rare Vehicles for National Foundation Day in Japan!

When Emperor Meiji regained real power, he decided to introduce a national holiday to honor the emperors. The occasion was the accession to the throne of Jimmu, the legendary first ruler of Japan. In 1872, this day was celebrated on the first day of the Lunar year, which then fell on January 29th, but the following year Japan switched to the Gregorian calendar, and February 11th was chosen as the date. In 1966, the date was again decided to be a holiday, but instead was given the different and less imperial name of National Foundation Day.

• IJN Kiyoshimo[wiki.warthunder.com] (rank III) is one of the last destroyers built by Japan during World War II. This destroyer features three main turrets with 127 mm guns for fire at enemy ships. Additionally it is agile and has an excellent amount of anti-aircraft weaponry, capable of protecting allies from attacks by enemy aircraft. It also features destructive 16 x 610 mm torpedoes!

• The A6M5 Ko[wiki.warthunder.com] (rank IV) is based on the A6M5 with more ammunition, raising the amount from 200 to 250 shells. This is an ideal aircraft for turn fighting against enemies, or bombing enemy tanks with 250 kg or two 60 kg bombs if needed!
