Update 2.1.2 brings a unique opportunity to add the brand-new Grumman F5F Skyrocket to your Hangar!

The quick and maneuverable American heavy fighter performs great in any battle situation. The high speed characteristics and boost duration help this aircraft immediately intercept most targets and turn the tide of battle, even in the most distant areas. At the same time, the maneuverability of the F5F is closer to lighter aircraft, which makes it much more comfortable when performing maneuvers. The armament requires accuracy when firing and allows hitting targets at medium distances. The Skyrocket's flight performance makes it an irreplaceable ally and a dangerous enemy.

To add the Grumman F5F Skyrocket to your Hangar, you need to execute missions from the special operation order. You can receive this order from supply crates available in the Supply Service for 750 gold. You can also receive it as a reward for completing the personal combat missions within the Crimson Dawn event.

You can purchase special supply crates in the Supply Service from November 19 (01:00 PT / 04:00 ET) to December 18 (07:00 PT / 10:00 ET).

• You can activate the operation order until December 18, 2020 (07:00 PT / 10:00 ET).
  
• Operation order missions can be performed until December 20, 2020 (07:00 PT / 10:00 ET).
  

30 missions are already waiting for you. Complete them and receive not only the Ho 229, but also an exclusive decoration set (paint scheme, nose art, emblem) for your new warbird.

• You can skip several operations or the whole chain by purchasing certificates in the Premium Shop.
• Those who don't have time to fulfill the order's conditions in the allotted time can resume an operation order without losing its progress using tokens.
  

Upon executing 15 missions, you will receive the Grumman F5F Skyrocket together with an exclusive decoration set (paint scheme, nose art, emblem) for a new aircraft. In addition, you will receive interim rewards for each operation order's mission: materials, tokens,boosters, days of Premium Account, equipment, consumables, and supply crates!

You can skip several missions or the whole chain by purchasing certificates in the Premium Shop.

Those who are unable fulfill the operation conditions within the allocated time will be able to reanimate the operation without losing their mission progress using Tokens.

In addition to the operation order for a new American heavy fighter, in the special supply crates, you can find many valuable awards, in particular new experimental equipment, which has noticeably higher characteristics than its standard counterparts.

Take your favorite Soviet fighters out of the Hangar! Completing the missions of this event will reward you with equipment, extra battle experience, materials, and unique supplies. And don't forget about aircraft discounts!
