Update 2.1.32
Pilots!
On March 12, from 08:00 to 12:00 UTC, the servers will undergo maintenance to deploy Update 2.1.32.
[h2]New Aircraft[/h2]
Update 2.1.32 will introduce a brand-new reward aircraft—Avro Lancaster B Mk. III, the British Tier VI bomber.
The Avro Lancaster heavy bomber was a legendary Allied aircraft in the European theater of World War II, responsible for numerous iconic operations and audacious raids against German industry. Lancasters helped sink battleship Tirpitz in the fjords of Norway and gained eternal glory in Operation Chastise, when 19 of these specially modified warbirds from the Royal Air Force's Number 617 Squadron sneaked into the Ruhr Valley and successfully damaged several river dams in the region.
The Lancaster B Mk. III in World of Warplanes is a British Tier VI bomber that brings immense demolishing power to the battlefield. Slow and lumbering, this flying giant won't be the first to reach the enemy base, but when it does, it will unleash its fifteen 500 lb (227 kg) bombs in volleys that can turn even the strongest opponents into rubble. Though lacking in speed, this aircraft is in no way defenseless. Its four defensive turrets cover all directions, with twin-mounted Browning Mk II machine guns on the nose, dorsal, and ventral turrets, along with four more on the rear turret.
To earn this aircraft, you'll need to participate in an upcoming game event.
