Pilots and tankers, the last month of summer will be a month to remember. We’re announcing the start of a big new event: Operation S.U.M.M.E.R. Four new premium vehicles straight from the testing grounds, new decals and other prizes for the best warriors in the skies and on the ground!
"Operation S.U.M.M.E.R." will run from July 22nd to August 22nd
Open the mission calendar for the Task list!
UPDATE 01/08/2016
Fellow pilots and tankers, we have received new orders from HQ:
- The requirements of many tasks for receiving Marks of Distinction in “Operation S.U.M.M.E.R.” have been lowered for this week (from August 1st to August 7th).
- The price for Marks of Distinction for tankers and pilots has also been lowered in the Item Shop - 299
instead of 599 .
During this week, players who bought the Marks of Distinction for the old price will receive the difference between the old price and the new one in golden eagles.
UPDATE 03/08/2016
Dear players! On August 3rd at 08:00 GMT, the game servers will be unavailable due to the implementation of 1.61 "Glory Road"! Tasks for "Operation S.U.M.M.E.R" on August 2nd and August 3rd will be extended for 24 hours. Premium accounts will be compensated upon completion of the maintenance. Follow the news! Thank you for your patience!
The military arts never stop changing. Somewhere on the front line, shells are firing and turrets are torn off turret rings. Off to the side, engineers strive night and day to perfect their fighting machines: new engines and weapons are developed and armour is strengthened. The results of their efforts are now perfectly tangible.
Soldiers, HQ has received prototypes of military vehicles from Testing Ground 113. This testing ground specializes in a wide array of tasks, from testing the newest prototype ground vehicles and aircraft to benchmarking power trains and complex equipment. Each of these vehicles has its own story: from the famous ‘Uhu’ reconnaissance aircraft that became a test platform for the latest aircraft engines, to a new development: the KV-220 heavy tank, worthy of inheriting the laurel of Kliment Voroshilov, surpassing it in armour, power and armament. The appearance of these vehicles clearly reflects the titanic effort spent on designing and upgrading them. Months in the tender care of mechanics has also left its mark: all testing ground vehicles perform at their peak characteristics as soon as the engine is first started, and their genius engineers have given the vehicles premium status.
There’s a reason these vehicles have been deployed. There is a task at hand: to test these prototype vehicles in real battle conditions with minimal losses. Only the most experienced crews will be able to handle this challenge. Command has decided to distribute the vehicles amongst the best soldiers who have shown their outstanding skills on the battlefield. Now is the time to prove that you are worthy of discovering all the potential of a brand new weapon. You don’t even have to choose – you can get all these vehicles at once by participating in a new operation, codenamed ‘S.U.M.M.E.R.’!
Naturally, there are going to be other useful gifts from the home front too. New decals and other rewards await the event’s participants.

Progress demands resources, and they are often harder to find than a genius solution. A suitable platform was required to test a new modification of front-line bomber engines, but the Me.410 was as precious as air on the field for intercepting enemy Flying Fortresses. The solution was simple and elegant. The air force had sufficient numbers of the Fw 189 Uhu – a famous reconnaissance aircraft – and its configuration, light design and simple installation process for new power train parts and mechanisms made the aircraft a perfect test platform.

Any new vehicle of an enemy or ally often becomes not only a soldier in your army or a target for testing out your weapons, but also an object of deep study with a view to absorbing the experience of engineers from other countries. The M3 Lee was no exception. Test data obtained in the testing grounds are sure to help Britain make its new military vehicle prototypes even better, and the Grant modification, stripped down to the screws, has again taken on its original form, receiving protection from the deadly sands of the desert and an upgraded turret. The M3 Grant is ready to serve the greater good in real battles on the side of Britain. |
The original Grumman F7F Tigercat is the first US twin-engine carrier-borne fighter – it stands out for its very high maximum speed and powerful frontal armament. But better is always good. A third modification of this aircraft has arrived from the testing ground, equipped with a new power train. The engineers haven’t failed to take advantage of this, and it became possible to mount additional launchers with rockets, including the large anti-ship Tiny Tim rockets!

Success has to be capitalized on. The Soviet KV-1 heavy tank is undeniable proof of that. A vehicle that struck fear into German tankers’ hearts was sure to find a successor, and it didn’t have to wait long for one. The KV-220 has undergone its finishing touches at Testing Ground 113 and is ready to surprise the enemy with its even thicker armour and more powerful cannon, for which, incidentally, an entirely new turret had to be created. The long-barreled 85 mm F-30 cannon is just what the first KV was missing, and it guarantees the efficacy of this successor on the battlefield.

ooooooh nooooooooooooooooooo, do not announse it this way..... there will be anger right now because everyone was WAY to hyped
Maybe people should have learned not to be hyped like hormonal 13 year olds by now :P
Cpt_Inkognito, luckly im 17+ the comment section on FB made me hyped for naval xD
do I need to do 36 tank quests and 36 plane quests? or just 36 of either to get all vehicles?
It's either.
You can do one or the another or both. If you want to open the planes you will need to do 36 airplane tasks and if you want the tanks you will need to do 36 tank tasks.
Will i get that japanese pin-up while flying japanese or is it random?
You will receive a random decal for every 8 completed aircraft tasks. If you already have one of them, you will not receive it again. This way you can open them all if you complete all tasks.
Hmm. It says it starts July 22nd here, but in game it's listed as July 23rd onwards...?
The first 4 tasks work from today until Monday.
I dont see the discounts gaijin ... probably SoonTM ...
Why Zis-12 AAA not allowed in Russian line up? :(
No one wanted this. Why are you wasting time working on stuff no one wants and adding more premiums to the game?
Are you losing some chromosomes buddy? There's no way you just messed up premium vehicles with event vehicles... You can get all of those vehicles just by completing some stupidly easy missions, there's nothing you can buy here.
Don't think the tracking for the achievements is working as intended.
Yeah, the assists and rescuer awards don't seem to be tracking correctly
Of course I'm leaving for vacation all of next week, so goodbye F7F and KV-220 chances, go figure.
