Before the outbreak of World War II, neutral Belgium didn't have a navy. In 1936, however, a special flag was introduced for all state-owned ships—a black-crowned lion in the center of the Belgian tricolor. A few mobilized ships of the hastily created Belgian Naval Corps served under that flag during the short military campaign of 1940.

Earn Free XP, "Destroyed" ribbons, and Credits to obtain Shadow Lurker, Yellow, and Deep Red camouflages, as well as expendable economic bonuses.

    You can complete the combat mission chain by playing Tier V–X ships and superships in Random, Ranked, and Co-op Battles, as well as in Operations and Brawls.
