New reserve aircraft comes to the US tech tree in the upcoming War Thunder update. Meet first photos and details!

BF2C-1, fighter, USA., rank I. Reserve aircraft.
Features:

• Good turn rate
  
• 4x100 lb bombs
  
• Poor offensive armament

Soviet multiple-rocket launch system BM-31-12 will become the main prize of the upcoming Victory Day event in War Thunder.

BM-31-12, MLRS, USSR, rank III. Premium.
Features:

• Deadly heavy rockets
  
• Lacks direct fire
  
• Light protection

Unguided 300-mm M-30 rockets were used by the Red Army since 1942 as a field artillery, being fired from metal frames right in the transporting containers. Soon, an upgraded version of the rocket appeared under the designation M-31 with an improved engine and a significantly increased range. Engineers from the special design bureau of the Moscow Kompressor plant designed a combat vehicle on the chassis of the US-built Studebaker US6 three-axle truck with a framework of 12 welded rails to launch these powerful rockets.
