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.
How to get rewards
Take part in the "Battle of Britain" event, and get a trophy for every 5 victories with a German or a British aircraft.
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.
Battle activity should be at least 60%.
You can follow your progress by clicking on your nickname → Achievements → Battle of Britain.

I have to admit, I've always been a fan of low-tier events like this one.
(SB players) poor british :( after the new spitfire flight model they will be obliterated by 109s, even the BF 109 E1 is more dangerous than the Spitfire MK VB sadly. RIP Britain, RIP.
Its a lot smaller map than last year, battle sizes are tiny, so far it seems the Axis side has two or three fighters and a bunch of bombers that get mauled by a team of Spitfires. Also the Axis side has a base on England? Maybe its just the teams right now, but I am disappointed. I guess I'll wait for the now-annual EC event. Hopefully.
this is amazing!!! how do we make it permanent? this **historical stuff**, and combining ftrs, bombers, and torps all useful, is the greatest thing ever
Polish Squadron 303 destroyed the most German planes and there isn't anything said about them ...
please make the British bombers more viable because the strliling B mk1 can verse bf109 K-4 and its not fun we need something because there are no proper night bombing raids
and the German airfield is to close to the bombing points its suicide to go high alt. because of German air spawn and suicide to go low because of AAA and ship AAA
yeah i take back my enthusiasm of this event. a bomber that wins for britan is lucky to see 12pct axctivity, and get no credit, even if they bomb and tirp and never die. I still played nothing but bombers and torpoedo planes because it was semi-fun, but it seems like it wouldnt be hard to allow non-fighters to earn rewards as well.
hey gaijin. are you Nazism?, so you planned this as an event?
get a brain before comentig, and learn how to write
Yep since no Russian bias involved you get no plane
Next time can the sim even just be an EC map? With the smaller population it just took way too long to wait for a game to start, and honestly I think EC Battle of Britain would have been a lot more fun.
Wow gaijin, 20 minute quene times for all servers ffs :(
