In the new War Thunder major update 1.71 you will see updated Battle Tasks. We have increased Warbonds rewards and added new features that will make Battle tasks more interesting whilst the mechanics remain the same.
Updated Battle Tasks
Updated Battle Tasks with an overhaul of the current version of Battle Tasks. We have increased the rewards and added new features that are designed to make Battle Tasks more interesting and attractive to players while preserving the existing mechanics.
Fireproof War Bonds
In the updated version of Battle Tasks, players don’t have to worry about the disappearance of their War Bonds at the end of the month – they no longer have a time limit. Now you can start earning bonds in the current month and spend them during the following month.
War Bonds Shop Progress
One of the main changes to the updated Battle Tasks is progress in the personal shop interface. Now, successfully completing Battle Tasks allows the player to not only earn War Bonds, but to also upgrade the shop itself by increasing its level. New goods and a special gift will be unlocked every time the player increases the shop level.
Special Tasks
Difficult Battle Tasks have been replaced with a new type – Special Tasks. By successfully completing these, the player will earn medals that unlock access to premium goods and a valuable reward. Special Tasks do not have a time limit and more than one can be completed per day.
Special Tasks can be found in a separate tab in the Battle Tasks window and you can unlock them by spending a few bonds in the shop.
New Battle Tasks
In honour of the update, we have added several new Battle Tasks for all modes and difficulties:
- Activist – achieve victory in a mission by earning the required activity percentage (all modes).
- Grand-Scale Game – destroy bases belonging to the enemy team to win (aviation AB and RB).
- Bird Hunt – destroy enemy aircraft in tank battles (tank AB and RB).
New Goods
In addition to Special Tasks, another new item will also appear in the shop – the universal backup vehicle. The player can activate this item to backup any one vehicle of their choice.

Good news for those who still haven’t earned enough August warbonds. Warbonds duration period will be prolonged for a few days - follow the news!
It was said a couple updates ago there will be no more major updates lol just small updates, has your plans changed from then as there has been and looks like there will be many more major updatesto come! It's good to see how much attention this game gets over a verylong period. Thanks and keep up the work! *cough cough* PSVR!!!
just spend mine today before post x)
Why are not Warbonds for SB to? SB players are discriminated :(
simulator battle player lives matter
Still not available in SB EC right? If so then it's as useless for me as before o7
https://imgur.com/a/JS8Mw Excuse me? 8.3? So much for that decompression
Nice work finding this though!
Surely a placeholder
YES! The first Advance in Game i read since 6 Months. Sounds great and interesting! GJ Gaijin
Could you implement this system to Simultaor mode too? Or ability to buy Warbonds with golden eagles (or SL, don't care). I don't mind if you offer "regular" premium vehicles with warbonds since I can buy them with real money, but I feel really fustrated when you offer a hidden event plane which cannot be purchased.
In SB EC you can't even unlock plane skins. I can understand that some tasks giving faster progress or unique stuff might not be balanced for EC but skins? It won't ruin game even if we get them all in one battle - will it?
so if i understand correctly you can now save warbonds for items. is this for just 2 month or for as long as you save?
You can save them without time limit.
no expiration date, however maximum amount of warbonds you can keep is 3600
This all seems very confusing
they dont expire and more, its pretty simple. READ. its hard, i know.
Tac_the_Pilot, Words are hard...
Sadly, I see the other edge of the two-sided blade. While it is nice to be able to save up warbonds for those that have limited time, I see that you have also increased costs of several items. (decal from 1150 to 1650, Decorator box from 1500 to 2200). Also if I am reading the star-system correctly, you can purchase 12 stars per cycle, and a vehicle takes 12 stars, a decorator 3 stars. This stops high-warbond earners from doing things like getting both a vehicle and a decorator box in 1 cycle
Well there has to be some breaking point ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It is still an improvement.
Although it does stop you from getting both in a single month, since the warbonds themselves won't expire you can save them up to buy the medals for next month. Lets you take a break once in a while. Personally I find the task for destroying bases hilarious though since they've made it all but impossible due to self-destructing ground units.
Still overly expensive premium rewards especialy tier one and two so unless you are a nolifer you still get nothing so thanks for nothing you greedjin
Expensive? You can get premium vehicle FOR FREE, just by playing the game. And we are the greedy here? Wow.
Stona_WT, I agree with Stona, what do you lose from it? Do a few basic tasks daily and you can earn some decent free stuff
