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

Pretty cool! Luckily I have all the medals that are being removed. Though I want some Operation Summer :P
only question now is... what will the next update be like?
Bottom of Soviet medal, is that a 3 eyed alien carrying a bomb? o_0?
Nope! It's a 3 eyed SMILING alien carrying a bomb. (Sorry for caps, it isn't about shouting at you.)
Pls give us more player potraits !
There are plenty already available, check warbonds chests for more.
Stona_WT, arnt they all pilots? ditto with skins for vehicles, theyr mostly just all on ground vehicles, alot of planes ect barely have the one they start with, and theyr full of pre decals, so you can use nations symbols that also used said vehicles\planes to get their markings right, unless you cover up the preput decals witch then bleed trough and make it look spagethi
Kriegsmarine!
Adding content to the game is great! However, War Thunder is no longer in a "beta" state and therefore awards and achievements already in game should not be touched. Is this game not in beta? Is this the standard practice for fully developed games post beta to have achievements re-worked and/or removed?
The best news i've seen in 5 years or something... finally!!!
Operation S.U.F.F.E.R.
Will the previous game record be counted by the new medal? Many old players have tens of thousands of games. I think that although the mechanism may not be so easy, but because these pasts are worthwhile, they should be counted.
I had hoped that this would refer to the awards earned each game - for example 'rank doesn't matter'. It'd be neat to see these yield greater amounts of SL for high tier games to offset some of the higher repair costs, and potentially reward more aggressive play. I don't recall if bombers rack up awards but it might make 40k repair bills less FUBAR too. I don't even recall earning the medals that I have, though admittedly that'd be a while ago now.
