Greetings, Admirals.
I am Ja-ram Jeon, the Lead Producer of Gunship Battle Total Warfare.

In this Developer Note, we’d like to introduce the latest Aircraft Carrier, John F. Kennedy, along with other notable upcoming updates.

This month’s update is also available in a special form; an AI Patchcast —for those of you who prefer to listen than to read, be sure to check it out for further insight on this update!

[h2][Hidden Armada Base Detected! Launch the Assault Operation!][/h2]
A new PvE feature, “Assault Operation”, is coming. In this new content, you’ll take on the challenge of infiltrating hidden Armada Bases scattered across the sea.

Similar to APEX Arena, this new feature will require the usage of Ships and Heroes for combat.

Upon entering combat, you’ll be assigned a preset fleet composed of Tier 14, Level 100, Ships, so what will matter most is the growth and strength of your Heroes.

The progress of different core features—Research, Hero Skills, Collection, Jet Tactics, and Carrier Module Upgrades—will be reflected in the Assault Operation, further enhancing your power with additional bonuses.

Assault Operation will be available for Admirals with HQ Lv. 18 and above.

Different terrains are available, and each will open on specific days only from Monday to Saturday. On Sunday, all terrains will be open and players will be able to choose which terrain to participate in.

Each themed terrain consists of 50 Stages, and all stages can be played and completed again.
Rewards are granted for:
- First clear
- Extermination
- Cumulative stage clear progress

Progress resets every Monday at 00:00 UTC, allowing you to earn Extermination Rewards again.

In addition, a special currency obtained from the Assault Operation can be exchanged in the feature-exclusive Shop for core items.

Shop purchase limits reset every Monday.

We hope this new PvE feature provides you with an exciting new way to apply the power you’ve built throughout your journey!


[h2][New Aircraft Carrier: John F. Kennedy][/h2]
For the first time in 3 years since the release of Gerald R. Ford on December 8, 2021, a new Aircraft Carrier, “John F. Kennedy” is now joining the battlefield!

The John F. Kennedy can be produced after reaching Gerald R. Ford Lv. 3 and it has the ability to load “Special Missiles”, unlike other Aircraft Carriers.

Upon obtaining the John F. Kennedy, Special Missiles can be produced in the Missile Factory and can increase the chances of dealing additional damage to enemy Carriers during attacks.

If attack is successful, Special Missiles will significantly reduce the enemy Carrier’s Durability.

※ Footage shown is from test builds and is subject to change upon official release.

But wait, that is not all that the John F. Kennedy has to offer!
Powerful, special abilities never seen before are unlocked for each level of the John F. Kennedy.

[h3]Unique Abilities of John F. Kennedy[/h3]
> Last Stand
: When the Carrier’s Durability reaches 0, it temporarily recovers Durability, removes debuffs, gains immunity to Malfunctions, and reduces incoming Durability damage.
※ Durability will not be recovered unless ACC is repaired in Base.


> Guided Bombing
: During naval battles, there is a chance that an E-2 Hawkeye Warning will appear to detect enemies and trigger a bombing attack.


> Fleet Management
: Adds one additional Fleet management slot, allowing up to 8 Fleets to be deployed.
※ Only active when the John F. Kennedy is deployed as the Command Carrier.

Additionally, the John F. Kennedy inherits the special abilities of Gerald R. Ford:
- One-Man Rally
- Jet Deployment Count Increase

We hope this new Aircraft Carrier with its overwhelming power and support capabilities becomes a key force in your naval dominance.

[h2][Improved Benefits for PC & Standalone APK Versions][/h2]
Benefits for the PC and APK versions are being improved!
※ APK refers to the Android APK downloadable from the Joy Store.

[Download PC Version] [Download APK]

To provide a smoother gameplay experience, an exclusive buff will be granted instantly upon accessing the game via the PC or APK version.

These buffs are displayed as a separate category in the "Active Buffs" popup and as buff effects being applied in “Admiral Skills.”

As part of this update, existing login mail rewards for PC & APK access will be removed and a new daily mission exclusive to PC & APK versions will be added.

These Daily Missions will only be available on the PC & APK versions, so be sure to check them out for additional rewards!
※ Due to Steam's operational policies, this update will not be applied to the Steam version.
*Added on June 25, 2025, 04:10 UTC (June 24, 2025, 21:10 PDT)

That wraps up our preview of the updates planned for June.

From the new PvE content Assault Operation to the powerful new Aircraft Carrier, John F. Kennedy, and enhanced PC & APK version benefits, we hope these changes will bring exciting changes to your strategy and gameplay.

We will continue doing our best to provide an even more enjoyable experience for all Admirals.

Thank you.
