The feast of Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, is observed on March 17th. This holiday has long since stopped being a purely religious one and thanks to the Irish immigrants spread across the entire world.
Today it is an international celebration of Irish culture: people dress in green, drink beer and wave Irish flags. Join the feast!

From March 17th (11:00 GMT) until March 20th (7:00 GMT)

Play 3 battles using any vehicles (rank III or higher, with an activity of not less than 70%) to receive the “Lucky pin-up” decal.

Up till March 27th (20:00 GMT) get a special decal “Wiki Approved: CV 90105 XC-8” by purchasing the CV 90105 XC-8 Pack.

CV 90105
The possibilities are infinite! The Swedish CV 90105 light tank, introduced to the game in the’ Viking Fury’ update, has been upgraded in the Drone Age update with a modern XC-8 turret with new fire control system and autoloader, resulting in much better fire rate.

Being lightly armored, the CV 90105 XC-8 is very agile and capable of flanking enemies easily. A quality thermal vision device and deadly arsenal allow the light tank to hit enemies hard unawares and slip away from the counter attack. This tank is a true tactician, possessing a good choice of shells and able to wisely use the terrain to its advantage.

Meet the new Sky Guardians trophy! 38 authors from the Live.WT portal created 40 new camouflages: 17 historical, 21 semi-historical, and only 2 fictional! You can use them on vehicles of any rank, both old and new ones from the Sky Guardians update, while supporting the creators!

To earn the new trophy, just keep playing War Thunder. To open it, you’ll need to purchase a key on the Market (income is shared with the authors of the camouflages). The key allows you to get a coupon for a camo, rare vehicle, or Sky Guardians decal. You can either activate the coupon on your account, or trade it on the Market to get Gaijin Coins (GJN). A trophy can be sold as well!

War Thunder has a multi-level anti-cheat model for dealing with cheaters to ensure a safe gaming environment. You can use the complaint system to send a request to our game masters to check a suspicious player. Use the replay feature[warthunder.com] on our page to send a complaint about the offender.

Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) support partially prevents players from using illegal software and regular system updates keep an eye on more and more suspicious software so that you can enjoy fair gaming. As a reminder, EAC is active in tournaments and in game modes without markers to eliminate the likelihood of cheaters.
