Take part in events “Battle of Britain” in British and German aircraft and get special Trophies!
The largest-scale aircraft battle of WWII - battle for supremacy in the skies of the Great Britain in which the Luftwaffe failed to break neither the air defense of the British Isles nor the spirit of the People. The courageous pilots of the Royal Air Force repulsed the Luftwaffe attacks and prevented the German command from achieving superiority.
In the United Kingdom, the Battle for Britain is commemorated on the 15th of September. We invite you to re-enact the events in our game this weekend and get rewards for winning.

Other terms
Trophies can only be earned in the special event [Air Domination] Britain (AB) and [Operation] Britain (RB and SB).
During the special you may only earn a maximum of 3 trophies for each of the two nations.

This 'battle of britain' is so hopelessly biased that no-one sensibly wants to play Britain. As a result there are always a heap of players waiting ages for germany, and noone on the british side. This is because briitsh sides include some truly useless planes, and a couple of noobs seem to always turn up in a swordfish to fight bf109 E4s... Britain laway gets a selection of bombers... WHY???? And germany has a convenient airbase on british soil. None of it makes sense, or much fun.
The design of this event was poor at best. Historical does not have to = one side clearly better than the other. There should have made a bunch of NPC bombers the Germans have to cover and given the Brits a bunch of NPC Hurricanes to go after them.
thanx gaijin most generous
So what planes are going to be available? Spitfires and Bf 109s, maybe Fw 190s?
hurricanes
"maybe Fw190s". Battle of Britain.
Great event , won 5 battles and got NOTHING as a trophy. There is no "you may win" , it clearly says " you win " . Fix your stuff !
The event is broken. The 109s get airspawn, radiators that work and cannons. The Allies get a ground spawn, overheating Spits and poor guns. That there will be around 60 in the queue to play Axis and 8 to play Allies tells you all you need to know.
Just tried to get in . 78 queuing for Axis, 11 for Allies :-)
The spitfire has some cooling issues and that Luftwaffe air spawn is so broken they end up way higher than the RAF.
No thanks, i'm still getting over "stock syndome."

Worst event ever
Ah, this event! I play on GB side, since on DE side I don't drop into battle due to long waiting times. But playing on GB side is a nightmare... I'm the only one who climbs and I always end up fighting 2-3 109s.
The problem is that, even if you climb, there will still be 5-6 109s above you. The long waiting times for the Axis side is because the battle is so one-sided (though increasing the number of Allied aircraft has helped).
hopefully i can get some free camos :)
