A Schwerer Panzerspähwagen (Sd.Kfz.234/4) with a tremendous gun, an SPAA on a T-34 chassis, and a  P-43A-1 universal fighter! If you combine your efforts with other participants during “Operation S.U.M.M.E.R.” you will have the chance to receive many more prizes than you would be able to alone: A “United” effort for common goals!


Unlock unique military vehicles during Operation S.U.M.M.E.R.
available for participation from the 28th of July to the 28th of August
Note: Marks of Distinction can be purchased up until 4 September at 11:00 GMT

More about the new vehicles:

 Sd.Kfz.234/4 Germany

 P-43А-1 USA

 Type 65 AA USSR

 Ki-94-II Japan

The  Panzerspähwagen — a fast hunter with a deadly 75mm PaK 40 cannon; it leaves its enemies no chance of survival. Many tankers are already familiar with the Panzerspähwagen’s aggressive tactics, which in addition to its fire power, is impressive!

The Lancer — a high altitude interceptor, a long range fighter and an extremely fast aircraft for its time, armed with 4 Browning .50 cal MGs. For the U.S.  this vehicle was a temporary decision before the P-38 appeared. It’s a good fighter without any significant disadvantages.

A Т-34 based SPAA — quite a real threat for you pilots! Good maneuverability, nice armour and a favourable  pair of 37mm AA guns! This SPAA will find its place in the USSR tree. 

A high altitude interceptor of Japan that was designed to engage the most deadly of  American bombers - the B-29. Such an opponent would unlikely allow enemies to close in on it more than once, so the Japanese put a lot into its weaponry - 4 high caliber cannons. And, of course, a very powerful engine which allows impressive speed.
