[p]Commanders![/p][p]We’re happy to inform you that we have resolved the game launcher issues that began the last weekend and were preventing the game from starting. In order to apply the fix, please make sure to update the game launcher to version 354 (the option to do so is available in the launcher).[/p][p]In case you are still suffering from issues, please make sure to restart your computer and recheck your game files (option available upon clicking the arrow button next to the launch one). We apologize for the inconvenience and, as always.[/p][p]See you on the battlefield![/p]

[p]Commanders![/p][p]Today we’ve prepared the following items for you:[/p]

• [p]Object 490 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank[/p]
• [p]Object 195 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank[/p]
• [p]Kornet-D1 Tier 10 Premium Tank Destroyer[/p]

[p]Between June 17 and June 24, 2025, the following items will be available:[/p][p][/p][h2]Object 490[/h2][p][/p][p]The Object 490 Main Battle Tank was an advanced concept from the waning days of the Soviet Union. Designed in the 1980s, it represented a radical departure from the MBT paradigm. Its distinct wedge-like shape, along with the fact that the crew was located in the back, offered unparalleled levels of protection. But the most interesting part of the design was its double suspension paired with two engines, allowing the vehicle to stay mobile even after suffering significant damage. However, the conclusion of the Cold War put an end to this design, along with many other advanced Soviet projects. You can learn more about this vehicle in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the Object 490 Tier 10 Premium MBT is perhaps the best armored vehicle in the game. It’s a true behemoth that is almost impossible to slow down, let alone knock out, and concentrated effort is required to stop one of these things when encountering them on the battlefield. The combination of extremely thick armor and a powerful 152mm gun makes this tank incredibly deadly, even though these advantages are balanced by its mediocre agility and the fact that its gun is only forward facing. This MBT is ideal for you if you prefer slow, methodical advances while dealing massive amounts of damage with each shot. If you keep your flanks secure, you’ll be all but impossible to stop.[/p][p]The Object 490 MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.[/p][p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Object 195[/h2][p][/p][p]The Object 195 Main Battle Tank is one of the 1980s Soviet supertanks, intended to fight the next generation of NATO MBTs. It was developed in Nizhny Tagil by the experienced Uralvagonzavod design bureau (UKBTM), which was responsible for such legendary tanks as the T-72 and T-90. Much like other such prototypes, it was designed to be armed with massive 152mm smoothbore cannon in an unmanned turret. A single prototype was built and it allegedly passed state trials between 2008 and 2010 but the project was discontinued due to a lack of financing. You can learn more about it in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the Object 195 is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank and one of the most versatile vehicles you can get your hands on thanks to a combination of excellent armor, unmanned turret, 152mm hard-hitting gun and one special feature – the coaxial 30mm autocannon that allows you to take out unarmored targets without having to waste a shot of your main weapon.[/p][p]The Object 195 Tier 10 Premium MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.[/p][p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Kornet-D1[/h2][p][/p][p]The Kornet-D1 Tank Destroyer was one of the proposed variants for the BMD-4M chassis. As a dedicated tank hunter, it was supposed to be armed with two Kornet ATGM quad launchers, providing the Russian Airborne forces with long-range tank-killing capabilities. The project was launched in 2013 but the vehicle never reached the prototype stage with the program likely being canceled in 2018. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the Kornet-D1 is a Tier 10 Premium Tank Destroyer and a tracked counterpart to the wheeled Kornet-EM progression vehicle. It is only lightly armed but also very stealthy and its lack of vision range is compensated by the ability to deploy a Sniper. Additionally, when configured properly, the vehicle is capable of launching two missiles at once, making it incredibly deadly against any target, especially at long ranges.[/p][p]This vehicle is available via Loot Crates, which drop Kornet-D1 parts. Collect 100 Kornet-D1 parts from these Loot Crates to assemble the whole vehicle.[/p][p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We hope that you will enjoy the offer and, as always:[/p][p]See you on the battlefield![/p]

[p]Commanders![/p][p]During our recent launch of the Rough Riders Battle Path pre-order, many questions were raised about the Battle Path’s requirements that we’d like to summarily address in this article.[/p][p][/p][p]Right off the bat, let’s look at the economy. We did several things differently compared to the previous Battle Paths.[/p]

• [p]We shifted the focus back from missions to the main progression, thus increasing the prices of later Battle Path levels[/p]
• [p]In addition to providing a large number of new prizes like in earlier Battle Paths, we also added a number of existing assets to the level progression, for which existing players are compensated (some of them are available even new through the Battle Path shop for example and, in this sense, can be considered a Battle Coin transfer to the new Battle Path)[/p]
• [p]We repurposed the missions – instead of being objectives by themselves with their separate rewards, they now serve to provide players with more Battle Coins[/p]

[p]Overall, the economy looks as follows:[/p]

• [p]Chain missions (which will require Light Tanks in various Tier brackets) will provide bonus 20.000 Battle Coins and have been tuned to become easier to complete[/p]
• [p]Compensations for existing items will reach up to 65.000 Battle Coins with each existing asset offering 1.500 Battle Coins as a compensation – the amount was tuned based on the number of extra items added to the Battle Path (with Commander Diaz getting a special high compensation prize)[/p]
• [p]Another free event (much like Operation Liberty) will launch during the Rough Riders Battle Path to provide extra Battle Coins and many extra boosters[/p]
• [p]At the same time, the total cost of passing the entire Rough Riders main content from Level 1 to Level 50 increased by 75.000 Battle Coins. Please note that this by itself is nowhere near new or unprecedented as, even without overprogression, some previous Battle Paths had even higher requirements[/p]

[p]As a result, for players who own some of the American items provided in this Battle Path, the progression may even be easier than the current Battle Path.[/p][p]A separate issue is that of the entry price. We understand that this is a sensitive topic for many of you, especially with what’s going on in the industry right now. It has been a difficult decision for us as well, but we would love to win you over with the Battle Path content we will highlight in the future, such as:[/p]

• [p]New skins and prizes[/p]
• [p]New gameplay features of the vehicles[/p]
• [p]Light tank buffs – and not just the reward ones featured in Rough Riders, of course[/p]
• [p]The yet-unannounced system partially tied to the XM1302[/p]

[p]We will post more about these before the launch of the event itself so that you can see for yourselves whether what we have prepared for you is worth your time.[/p][p]And, last but definitely not least, we’d like to thank you for all your feedback as well as your continued support that inspires us to continue working on this game even a decade after its launch. It means a lot for us to see you submit even the harshest of criticisms because, at the end of the day, the opposite of support isn’t hate – it’s indifference, and you show us every day how much you care. We will do our best not to disappoint.[/p][p]See you on the battlefield![/p]

[p]Between June 11 and June 19, 2025, the following items will be available:[/p][p][/p][h2]June Gift and Bonus[/h2][p][/p][p]This week we have prepared a special treat for you. Aside from 100% bonus to Battle Coin income (available until June 15), we also have a gift for you.[/p][p][/p][p]This gift contains two decals, a camouflage, 2 Battle Path boosters and 3 Platinum Loot Crates. Please note that one of the decals and the camouflage were issued before, in which case you will not receive them again.[/p][p]Click on the link below to claim it![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]T-90M Proryv[/h2][p][/p][p]The T-90M Proryv the most advanced Russian Main Battle Tank currently in service and the ultimate step in a long journey that began with the T-72. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the T-90M Proryv is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. With its solid firepower, excellent armor and decent mobility, this vehicle is suitable for all players, including fairly new ones. No matter what tactic you choose, the T-90M will not let you down as it is one of the most versatile MBTs in the entire game.[/p][p]The T-90M is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Typhoon-VDV[/h2][p][/p][p]The Typhoon-VDV is a modern Russian reconnaissance and special use vehicle. It is perhaps the best-armed version of the Typhoon platform, featuring a Spitsa turret. Several vehicles of this type have been built and are currently in use by the Russian military. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the Typhoon-VDV is a Tier 10 Premium AFV. It is a powerful vehicle on its own, featuring high firepower in the form of 30mm autocannon and an ATGM launcher with two tubes loaded with thermobaric missiles that can be launched both at once. Its task on the battlefield is supporting other scout vehicles by increasing their spotting capabilities thanks to a new active ability.[/p][p]The Typhoon-VDV Tier 10 Premium AFV is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Armata 152[/h2][p][/p][p]The Armata 152 is a version of the T-14 Armata, armed with larger cannon. One of the upgrades considered for the T-14 Armata was the increase of its caliber to 152mm in order to absolutely, positively destroy anything with the first shot. The 2A83 smoothbore is a behemoth of a gun, designed in the last days of the Soviet empire for the next generation of super-tanks. It’s massive, heavy and quite costly to produce, but, most importantly, it was never truly needed to deal with the western MBTs since the standard 125mm guns were (and still are) up to the task. That is why it never found its way on any Soviet MBT with even the standard T-14 Armata being armed with an improved 125mm cannon. You can, however, experience its awesome firepower in Armored Warfare! Learn more about it in a dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the T-14 Armata 152 is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. While not firing as fast as its 125mm counterpart, the 152mm rounds do enormous damage, often eliminating weaker opponents with a single shot. And then there’s the platform itself – the Armata, the most modern Main Battle Tank in the world. Earn it and use it to dominate![/p][p]The Armata 152 Tier 10 Premium MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Boyevaya Podruga Bundle (T-14 Armata)[/h2][p][/p][p]The Boyevaya Podruga skin for the T-14 Armata Tier 10 Main Battle Tank is modeled after a famous Soviet WW2 tank, commanded by Mariya Oktyabrskaya. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]The skin is available as a part of the Boyevaya Podruga bundle, which contains the following items:[/p]

• [p]Skin: Boyevaya Podruga for T-14 Armata[/p]
• [p]8 Platinum Loot Crates[/p]
• [p]500 Gold[/p]

[p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Defender Bundle (T-80UM-1)[/h2][p][/p][p]This skin for the T-80UM-1 Tier 8 MBT is based on the camouflage and markings as seen in 2006 on a T-80U in Kubinka. You can read more about it in a dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]We are offering the Defender skin in a bundle, which includes:[/p]

• [p]Defender skin for the T-80UM-1 MBT[/p]
• [p]3 Platinum Loot Crates[/p]
• [p]500 Gold[/p]

[p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]BMP-1P Spetsnaz Skin[/h2][p][/p][p]The skin for the BMP-1P Tier 4 AFV is based on a BMP-1 belonging to the 101st Special Operations Brigade of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, as seen during the Battle of Grozny in 1996. You can read more in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]The skin is available as a part of the Spetsnaz Bundle, which contains the following items:[/p]

• [p]Skin: Spetsnaz[/p]
• [p]Russian (Interior Forces) camouflage[/p]
• [p]3 Platinum Loot Crates[/p]
• [p]500 Gold[/p]

[p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Kurganets-25[/h2][p][/p][p]The Kurganets-25 Infantry Fighting Vehicle is intended as a cutting edge future replacement to the old BMP series in Russian service. While not as chunky and expensive as the T-15 Armata super-heavy IFV, it’s designed to finally offer the 21st century protection levels the Russian military has been demanding for a long time. However, the design turned out to be quite expensive and while it is currently undergoing state trials, it is unlikely to be ever mass-produced. You can learn more about it in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the Kurganets-25 is a Tier 9 Premium Tank Destroyer. Even though it offers decent protection and mobility for its class, this vehicle is all about firepower. To make sure you always have the right tool for the job, it comes with three distinctive weapon systems – a 57mm autocannon for light targets, fast and small Bulat missiles for highly mobile targets and, finally, full-sized ATGMs that can defeat pretty much anything on the battlefield. If dealing damage is your thing, few vehicles will match your playstyle better.[/p][p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Msta-S[/h2][p][/p][p]The Msta-S SPG was developed as a replacement to the older 2S3 Akatsiya. The goal was to match (or surpass) the newly developed NATO artillery pieces with long 155mm guns. The production began in 1988 and is currently ongoing with a modernized variant rolling out for the Russian military. More than 500 Msta-S SPGs are still in Russian service and dozens were exported to several other countries. It has seen some combat during the Second Chechen War and the War in Donbass. You can learn more about it in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the Msta-S is a Tier 9 Self-Propelled Gun, which makes it only usable in the Global Operations mode and in PvE. It comes with two shell types – a slow-flying one with a high flight arc, and a fast-flying one for use against more mobile targets.[/p][p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Khrizantema-S[/h2][p][/p][p]The Khrizantema-S is a dedicated tank hunter, built on a modified BMP-3 hull. The first Khrizantema-S prototype appeared in public as early as 1996 with the initial production variant (9P157) entering service in 2005. Around 2010, an upgraded variant called 9P157-2 appeared with a modernized Ukrainian optics system and a hull machinegun the original model lacked. This variant was in use until 2017. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the Khizantema-S is a Tier 8 Premium Tank Destroyer. It is quite a stealthy vehicle armed with a twin ATGM launcher. The key to achieving excellent results with this machine is long-range ATGM sniping followed by rapid relocation. The missiles are quite powerful and make hits easy thanks to their excellent performance.[/p][p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Gadyuka[/h2][p][/p][p]The Gadyuka (“Viper”) is a Soviet-era fire support vehicle consisting of a T-72A hull and turret but instead of the main gun, the vehicle is armed with two 30mm autocannons and two rocket pods in order to perform better against infantry in urban and mountainous environments. A single prototype was built in 1996 and even though the project was cancelled, it eventually led to the rise of the BMPT Terminator series. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.[/p][p][/p][p]In Armored Warfare, the Gadyuka is a Tier 6 Premium Tank Destroyer. Despite having only average protection, its two 30mm autocannons can, along with deadly rocket salvos, rip through enemy vehicles with ease. Indeed, the Gadyuka is one of the most destructive vehicles of its Tier and a worthy addition to every player’s arsenal.[/p][p]This bundle is available in our Web Shop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Pile of Gold[/h2][p][/p][p]We also have the Pile of Gold Loot Crate for you. This Loot Crate contains copious amounts of Gold for you to win.[/p][p][/p][p]This Loot Crate includes:[/p]
