Historical Skins – T-80BVM Greshnik

Commanders!

It’s been a while since we had a new historical skin, so let’s take a look at what we are bringing you in February. This year’s Defender of the Fatherland Day will feature an interesting skin called Greshnik for T-80BVM along with other assets.



The skin is based on a specific T-80BVM (some sources claim it’s T-90M Proryv but it is not) belonging likely to the Russian Pacific Fleet Marines, as photographed around the summer of 2023. The vehicle seems to be a simplified “Model 2022” without the Sosna-U optics.



The “Model 2022” is an unofficial name – the official one is much longer and not exactly convenient: "Tank T-80BVM (1A43-11, 1PN-96MT-01)".



Aside from traditional Russian tricolor emblems and the flag of the Russian Navy, the vehicle bears a prominent name Greshnik (“Sinner”) on its upper frontal plate.



The tactical number 211 is complemented by a red triangle emblem, which typically appears on Russian Marine vehicles.



Aside from the look, it’s worth noting that the skin will automatically unlock the following modules:

  • Top armor configuration
  • APS


That way, you’ll be able to enjoy your T-80BVM in its maximum configuration without having to unlock the modules first. But that’s not all that we have for you.



There’s the Russian (Spetsnaz) camouflage as featured on vehicles used by elite operators and, of course, two separate decals:

  • Drone Elite
  • Air Defense


Take a look:





We hope that you’ll enjoy these new customization options and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

Nvidia Issues and Solution

Commanders!

We are aware of the issues caused by the two newest Nvidia GPU drivers. These issues prevent the game from loading at all (it crashes at launch) or cause crashes while playing.

In order to prevent these from happening, the only temporary solution is to install older Nvidia drivers (566.36 or older).

We are working with Nvidia to resolve the situation. We apologize for the issue and will inform you as soon as we have a solution.

See you on the battlefield!
