The Rocket Storm event is dedicated to an Italian ground vehicle. Play ground battles to unlock themed decals, a decoration and the FIAT 6614 FIROS, ready to pop up in unexpected positions and rain a rocket storm on the heads of any opponent!
From March 13th (11:00 GMT) until March 27th (11:00 GMT), earn mission points in Ground Battles, unlock stages and receive rewards!
FIAT 6614 FIROS — An Event Vehicle Light Tank for Italy at Rank V
The FIAT 6614 FIROS is a somewhat unusual multiple launch rocket system (MLRS) vehicle in War Thunder. It features a compact rocket launcher with 48 rockets, placed on the chassis of a light and fast armored car, one capable of reaching speeds over 100 km/h! The FIAT 6614 FIROS can quickly outflank and deliver a surprise rocket attack to any unsuspecting opponents driving to their objectives.
Among the rewards in the event is also this chest. When opened, there is a chance to receive one of the following items:
- 50,000 - 100,000 Silver Lions
- Silver Lion and Research Point boosters
- Random Wagers and Orders
- Universal Backups (1 - 3)
- A random camouflage for a vehicle you own
- 1 day of Premium Account
How to get all rewards
Each stage can be obtained for 35,000 mission points, where every new stage obtained will give you a new reward.
Please note: After finishing a stage, you need to collect the reward manually. To do this, click on your name in-game, go to “Rocket Storm” and click the “Get Reward” button.
You’re able to earn mission points in Ground Battles at Rank III or above in Arcade, Realistic and Simulator Battles. The number of mission points to complete a stage depends on the game mode and the maximum Rank of the vehicle that you use in battle. There’s a multiplier for earning mission points, which is shown in the task description in-game.
You can also earn mission points by using event vehicles that are Rank I and II. Event vehicles that can be used have the name of the event that they were obtainable in on their stat card.
Stages change every two days at 11:00 GMT on March 15th, 17th, 19th, 21st, 23rd and 25th.
Rewards are given when you complete a specific number of stages
- For 1 Stage: trophy with a random reward
- For 2 Stages: one of the decal rewards
- For 3 Stages: trophy with a random reward
- For 4 Stages: one of the decal rewards
- For 5 Stages: trophy with a random reward
- For 6 Stages: the “Semi-automatic shotgun (Italy)” decoration
- For 7 Stages: non-tradable coupon for the FIAT 6614 FIROS
Discounts on purchasing stages using Golden Eagles
Unfinished stages can be purchased for Golden Eagles, but if you’re significantly close to completing a stage, its price will now be significantly reduced.
Let’s say you have earned 85% of the required mission points to complete a stage, then the price of purchasing this stage will be halved. If you’re near the finish line for a stage and are at 95% progress, then the price will be reduced by five times. For example, if you’ve scored 30,000 mission points, then the price for unlocking this stage will be 499 Golden Eagles. If you’ve scored 33,500 mission points, then you’ll only need 199 Golden Eagles.
The Upgrade for coupon
When you complete 7 stages, you’ll receive a non-tradable coupon for the FIAT 6614 FIROS, where using it will immediately activate the vehicle on your account. If you don’t want the vehicle and would like to sell the coupon on the Market, you’ll need the “Upgrade for coupon” item.
The “Upgrade for coupon” item can be earned in parallel with the stages throughout the event from March 13th (11:00 GMT) until March 27th (11:00 GMT) for 600,000 mission points.
After receiving the “Upgrade for coupon” item, you can convert the non-tradable coupon for the vehicle into a tradable one and sell it on the Market. The tradable coupon can be sold after 6 days from the moment it’s created.
To make a tradable coupon, select the “Coupon FIAT 6614 FIROS (Italy)” in your inventory and click the “Modify” button.
The “Upgrade for coupon” item is valid until 11:00 GMT on March 31st. Until this time, you can use it or exchange it for War Bonds. Afterwards, it’ll disappear from your inventory.
You can track your progress towards each stage and receive the “Upgrade for coupon” item by clicking on your Nickname > Achievements > Rocket Storm. If you don’t manage to complete a stage in time or would like to purchase a stage, you can do so with Golden Eagles until March 31st from the Achievements window.

Comments will be premoderatedHey everyone! While we always aim to start an event with at least 1-3 days break in between, the overlapping of the Raider Hunter and Rocket Storm events is an exception in our event cycle. Due to the deviations from the original plan and the overlapping of the first two stages, Mark of distinction 1 and 2 in the Rocket Storm event will each take 20,000 mission score to complete instead of the standard 35,000 mission score. (full info here: https://wt.link/RocketStormInfo )
...wait, it's not only overlapping, but also forth event in a row. Where's the promised breather once every three events?
NOW THIS IS A FUN EVENT VEHICLE however, is the starting date of the event correct? march 13th looks early, especially considering the Raider Hunter event is still running until the 17th...
It doesn't seem right to me either.
Finally a good event vehicle instead of some copy paste stuff, well done.
And it's ITALY!
At least let us complete this event by playing ships as well - so that we can end both. I know you're preparing for April Fools but come on!
This is ground vehicle, so you need to play ground battles to unlock it, sorry.
i wonder how much points would we need..
Oh yay another rat, can't wait... anyways great work gaijin for bringing a unique vehicle

The whole " we need a break" situation is so funny. No one is forcing you to play boys. Put the mouse down If you can't handle the grind.
Well Gajin promised when they added this new event system there would be breaks in between events.
The complaint is that taking a break shouldn't create a FOMO situation.
more funky vehicles like this please
:O this is gonna be so fun
the 5th Mountain Artillery Regiment decal has a typo: "gli" not "glia"
Thanks for report!
