Get Mackensen in the Black Hussar event!
August von Mackensen joined the 2nd Prussian Life Hussar Regiment, known as the “Black Hussars” at the age of 20.

Get the F-106A “Six Shooter” in the Sky Guard Event!
The F-106 supersonic interceptor entered service with the U.S. Air Force in 1959. This aircraft did not take part in combat operations in Vietnam, but the possibility of using it as air cover was considered. In view of this, in 1972 the fighter was modernized under the Six Shooter program, where it was equipped with an internal cannon, an optical sight and a transparent canopy. Closer to the 1980s, the U.S. Air Force switched to more modern fighters, causing the F-106s to be transferred to the National Guard, serving until 1988.
