From the moment the United States purchased her first War Plane until 1947, the job of securing America’s skies fell primarily to the US Army and Navy. Beginning in 1909 with the first official title of - Aeronautical Section, Signal Corps - US Army. On September 18th, 1947, American President Harry S. Truman, signed into action the National Defense Act. Authorizing the creation of a new centralized and independent branch of Military Aviation Authority - The U.S. Air Force. From relatively humble origins, the USAF over 70 years has grown into one of the largest, most professional, military service organizations in the world.
Join with us today in commemorating 70 years of American airpower , achievements, and technological advancement. As well as to honor the men and women who over the decades have served, sacrificed, and pushed the envelope of what it means to be a U.S. Military Aviator.

Nice event, 50 air kills in AB is quite doable. Thanks Gaijin!
Welcome!
All answers (3)Thulle_, Have to second what Cervomix has said, this is how the anniversary events should be, you have done well gaijin (also i like your new ui)
The event is nice - too bad the armament on the XF5F in-game have no hold on reality. It was designed to carry cannons just like the XP-50
CeeJayDK, Please make a bug report with all sources required
What will we get who already got the XF5F, i want a new plane too! D:
Yea I have had mine for a long time. Been waiting for the 23mm guns!
All answers (1)SwaffyTheDragon, I doubt it's ever going to get that - but Gaijin really should put the some 20mm cannons on it
I want TB3 :C
ZeSquirrel, I also would enjoy earning the TB-3; however now is the time that we honor the United States Air Force, and i would prefer that it stay that way.
Gaijin is killing it with these new, ultra-reasonable events for players like me who weren't around to collect some of the vehicles from back in the day. Going to be buying up all of the new vehicles and packs to show my gratitude for these opportunities :D
Same here, I WAS planning on only getting some more premium during the big Nov sale, now I'm gonna break out the wallet and do some serious shopping, gotta support a company that supports their fans with great events!
I already have it... Can I get P-26A-34 "Peashooter"?)
No, but you can have the decals (◠ω◠✿)
All answers (1)Thulle_, :(
So can we activate the code until the 22nd and still complete the task for a certain time after or do we have to do all of it before the 22nd?
The whole special ends on 22nd 12:00 GMT. You cannot complete the special after even if you activated the code.
All answers (4)Thulle_, eh, even someone as shit as me should be able to get 25 kills over the span of 3 days right?
