With the epic story of the Battle of Midway hitting cinemas worldwide this week, and in light of the recent discovery of the wrecks of Japanese aircraft carriers Akagi and Kaga by the R/V Petrel research ship, we've put together a special pair of combat missions. These missions and their rewards will give you a chance to relive the momentous struggle for Midway Atoll and get a taste of U.S. and Japanese Navy carrier tactics for yourself.

As the Battle of Midway took place between June 4–7, 1942, these missions call on you to earn 47,642 base XP playing both USN and IJN ships. Once you've reached the goal, you’ll get a full day's rental of a Tier VIII Premium aicraft carrier: VIII Saipan when you complete the American mission, and VIII Kaga when you finish the Japanese one. Alongside each of the 1-day carriers, you’ll also get a 6-skill point Commander who you can keep permanently.

Please note: if you already own either or both aircraft carriers, you will not receive the rental or any compensation for the ship. However, you will still receive the Commander.
