In such a gigantic and complex organism such as the military, medals demonstrate in one quick and clear designation of human merit and deed identifying individuals worthy of respect. In War Thunder medals serve the same purpose and indicate the impressive achievements of one person to other players.
Whilst there will be more medals available for all nations, their rarity, and hence their value will increase significantly.
In one of the larger upcoming updates the number of medals in our game will be increased from 65 to 186 in total across all nations. France has already received new medals in one of our previous updates and now it is time to add medals for other nations too. For those nations we will add new medals whilst older medals will receive updated conditions or may be removed where they don’t correspond to design.
Old medals
We have completely revised the design of older medals; the requirements for their receipt, their appearance and have ranked them in order of precedence.
If you already own the medal - it will remain with you. Some older and incompatible to the design medals have been removed but the bonuses for their receipt will stay with you.
Open the list of medal changes
Take advantage of the time remaining before the changes are completed if you were planning to own one of the existing medals.
New medals
These will be a truly valuable achievement and adornment in your profile in the eyes of other players. You will still be able to unlock the easier medals but the more significant achievements will require skill, concentration and time - the requirements to own them will be increased.
Updated medals will now be placed in order of precedence as is customary with the medal rules of all nations. The More valuable medals and orders will open a unique in-game title to the owner.
Hold your medals in great esteem and honour!
The War Thunder Team

Thank the Lord I already have 98% of the non French medals. You people are insane with the French medal requirements and should come to back to reality.
Uuuuu, shiiiiinnyyyyy!
Neat. Now please fix the single player missions, they have been broken for ages!
What about the Knight Cross of the Iron cross with Oak leaves, Swords, and Diamonds? Or the even higher honour with Golden oak leaves?
This game is seriously going down the drain and it's doing so fast. From what I see the company ignores the people who play their game! People ask for discounts, bug fixes, new maps, new game modes, map reworks, economy rework, etc. What do they spend their time working on? Medal System??? Why??? People confront moderators, ask legitimate questions and receive the most ludicrous responds. Seriously Gaijin get your act together before it's too late.
Complete agree!
You're about 2 years too late to get me to care Gaijin. If there is no bonus associated with these medals other than a title why should any one? No SL, GE, Talisman, Multiplier, or anything that would help the player get what they want in WT.
I started playing Fallout 76 again, and that means War Thunder is even more junk than Fallout 76
It would be nice if you directed your energy towards fixing something more important. Literally no one cares about this. I mean really. No one cares about this. At all.
it looks like gaijin is more and more run by marketing and less and less by programming ... that will only lead to one place ... i have real medals i only look at once a year .. i have far more important things on my mind .. i have just achieved 23 hours repair time .. woohoo 1 game a day now
Even the marketing is no good. You want customers paying money and being happy afterwards but here it's the opposite!
will medals be rewarded retroactivly, or will one have to earn them from scratch?
