Ships[/h2] The bundles will be available for purchase until: Fri. 03 Dec. 06:00 CET (UTC+1)

Five new black ships await you this year. You can purchase X Yoshino B, IX Pommern B, VIII Saipan B, and VIII Loyang B from the Armory or Premium Shop, and VI Dunkerque B can be obtained from sequential bundles in the Armory.

X Yoshino is a variant of the never-built Project B-65 battlecruiser that was under development in the early 1940s. The ship's main battery is represented by rather accurate long-range 310 mm guns that can unleash a weighty salvo. Yoshino carries two quadruple-tube torpedo launchers on each of her sides. Players who helm her can choose between long-range 610 mm torpedoes and torpedoes with an average range that are faster, can deal greater damage, and have lower detectability.

X Yoshino B is a standalone Special ship. The only difference in comparison with her standard counterpart— X Yoshino—is the color scheme of her permanent camouflage.

IX Pommern, named after an eastern German province, is a variant of the H-class project battleship. The ship is armed with twelve 380 mm main battery guns. She also has solid armor protection, powerful secondary armament, torpedo armament, and the Hydroacoustic Search consumable.

IX Pommern B is a standalone Premium ship. The only difference in comparison with her standard counterpart— IX Pommern—is the color scheme of her permanent camouflage.

VIII Saipan is a light aircraft carrier that was built following the end of World War II. The hull of a Baltimore-class cruiser was used as her basis. She has powerful but small squadrons. While the aircraft on her deck aren't numerous, they have high survivability and decent armament. Her torpedo bombers each carry two torpedoes, bombers—two HE bombs with high chances of causing fire, and her attack aircraft—powerful Tiny Tim rockets.

VIII Saipan B is a standalone Premium ship. The only difference in comparison with her standard counterpart— VIII Saipan—is the color scheme of her permanent camouflage.

VIII Loyang is a destroyer that was initially built for the U.S. Navy. She is armed with four rapid-firing 127 mm guns. The ship has good maneuverability; offers a choice between two types of torpedo armament; and has access to a wide variety of consumables for slot 3: Engine Boost, Defensive AA Fire, or Hydroacoustic Search.

You can also look forward to the Armory offering ships from previous years' Black Friday events.


[h2]Combat Mission[/h2]
You will obtain a special combat mission if you meet either of the following conditions from the beginning of the Black Friday 2021 event:

• You already have the standard counterpart of the ship, and before December 31, 2021, you become an owner of her themed black version.
  
• Before December 31, 2021, you become an owner of both versions of the ship.

As part of the combat mission, five victories gained playing both ships in Random, Ranked, or Co-op Battles will bring you Doubloons. You can obtain and complete the special combat mission for these ships only once until December 31, 2021.
