The Project 161 gun boat series was born in the besieged city of Leningrad in 1943. They were designed to seek and destroy enemy torpedo boats, as well as to provide fire support for landing troops. All 20 boats in Project 161 were attached to the Soviet Baltic fleet, and had been intensively involved in action to liberate Leningrad and following operations in the region.
In War Thunder, the MBK-161 (1943) is a premium gun boat of rank II in the Soviet naval lineup. When you see the MBK-161, her battle purposes will become obvious - the deck is festooned with cannons and machine guns of different calibres to make any salvoes as deadly and concentrated as possible. The main calibre guns are two 76mm cannons in tank turrets from the Soviet T-34 tank, located in the middle of the deck ahead and behind the wheelhouse. 37mm calibre gun assisted by a 45mm utility gun in the stern. A few high-calibre machine guns crown this compact but deadly artillery line up.
The MBK-161 gun boat features perfect firepower and decent durability, but her speed leaves a lot to be desired, being able to reach 13-14 knots (~ 25 kph) maximum. This certainly limits the boat’s tactics for assaulting or defending one capture point or making headway. The MBK-161 is slow but true. Make sure to shoot accurately and the powerful armament will do the rest!
Vehicles covered will be available in Operation “Shipyard” which we will discuss later.

oh yay...ANOTHER russian event boat...dont we have enough russian event ships? like geez...every time something naval comes up its always russia...give the other countries a chance
how many of these does russia need?
Why ANOTHER Russian premium ship? Did you know non-Russians play this game? Some of us are history nerds! How about some actual ships that fought in the war, I'm not interested in the Kronstadt garrison.
I won't be playing this event for a useless Russian premium ship. If you want these events to get people to play more, offer them things they want, not Russian ships.
An interesting boat! I just wish the event boats aren't all Russian ones. But I hope this means some tech tree ones will be added in their tech trees.
Another russian boat? Yeah, they are lacking ships, so it must be suplemented by boats... Hope it will be voucher for selling it in the Market...
Why voucher?... nobody will buy it ;)
A Russian ship on German Unity Day. Okay.
Gaijin should do an event in which there are no Russian vehicles at all, but allow other nations like the French, to have something, and maybe something that is at a lower br, like 3.0 or something like that, instead of just more top tier vehicles that are all the same, just a rectangle on tracks with a turret on top, vehicles like the B1 Bis, or the LVT, or even something like the FCM 36, just something low tier not Russian in game. o7
Can we expect any land ships or sky ships to docked at the shipyard?
Can this event be played in Simulator mode?
