June Calendar
We are pleased to present our June Wallpaper, available in a number of different sizes to fit your PC's monitor!
This week, we’ve prepared another set of attractive items for you:
Kornet-D1 Tier 10 Premium Tank Destroyer
M-95 Degman Tier 8 Premium Main Battle Tank
ZUBR PSP Tier 7 Premium Tank Destroyer
BWP-2000 Tier 7 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle
Treasure Trove with 10.000 Gold
Between May 25 and June 1, 2023, the following items will be available:
Kornet-D1
The Kornet-D1 Tank Destroyer was one of the proposed variants for the BMD-4M chassis. As a dedicated tank hunter, it was supposed to be armed with two Kornet ATGM quad launchers, providing the Russian Airborne forces with long-range tank-killing capabilities. The project was launched in 2013 but the vehicle never reached the prototype stage with the program likely being canceled in 2018. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.
In Armored Warfare, the Kornet-D1 is a Tier 10 Premium Tank Destroyer and a tracked counterpart to the wheeled Kornet-EM progression vehicle. It is only lightly armed but also very stealthy and its lack of vision range is compensated by the ability to deploy a Sniper. Additionally, when configured properly, the vehicle is capable of launching two missiles at once, making it incredibly deadly against any target, especially at long ranges.
This vehicle is available via Loot Crates, which drop Kornet-D1 parts. Collect 100 Kornet-D1 parts from these Loot Crates to assemble the whole vehicle.
M-95 Degman
The M-95 Degman is an advanced Croatian prototype MBT, developed during the 1990s and 2000s. It is based on the previous Yugoslavian project, the Vihor MBT, which in turn has its roots in the improved T-72M series produced in former Yugoslavia. You can read more about its history in a dedicated article.
In Armored Warfare, the tank is relatively fast and fairly agile while carrying some potent firepower for its Tier. In fact, its owners can choose from two powerful guns:
125mm 2A46 Russian-style smoothbore gun, known from many Russian MBTs
120mm CTG NATO-style smoothbore gun that you know from the Challenger 1 Falcon MBT
It’s worth noting that the 120mm shells have higher penetration values and the gun can also fire Falarick ATGMs while the 125mm gun has higher damage per shot. Both guns will feature good handling as well as overall performance to offset the vehicle’s weakness, which is its mediocre armor. The Degman must rely on its mobility and firepower to survive, making it an ideal vehicle for aggressive, daring players.

ZUBR PSP
The ZUBR was a Czech privately-funded project by PSP Bohemia from the 1990s to develop a successor platform to the aging Soviet-era BMP-series IFVs and various other obsolete specialized vehicles. Even though it was quite advanced for its time, it was ultimately unsuccessful due to the end of the Cold War and the subsequent cuts in European military budgets, including the Czech one. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.
In Armored Warfare, the ZUBR PSP is a Tier 7 wheeled Premium Tank Destroyer. What makes it fairly unique is the fact that you can choose from two different weapon systems for this vehicle:
Cockerill CT-CV turret with 105mm gun
Four-barreled TOW ATGM launcher
Each of these weapons changes the gameplay style of the vehicle considerably and it is up to you, how you configure this powerful machine.
Clicking the link below will open the game’s launcher. Please select the Market option on the left and select Armored Warfare to access this offer.
BWP-2000
The BWP-2000 IFV was a Polish attempt from the mid-1990s to develop a replacement for the license-produced BMP-1 in the Polish military, since it was getting obsolete by that point. Its protracted development led to its cancellation at the onset of War on Terror, leaving Poland without a modern tracked IFV to this day. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.
In Armored Warfare, the BWP-2000 is a Tier 7 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle armed with 60mm cannon as well as a set of ATGM launchers. When it comes to AFV playstyle, the BWP-2000 is definitely more of an infantry carrier and fire support vehicle than a scout due to its large size and powerful armament as well as the ability to deploy Mechanized Infantry. It can take quite a bit of punishment and deal it in equal measure.

Treasure Trove
Today, we have a special offer for you. A veritable treasure trove of 10.000 Gold awaits you at a discounted price.
Please note that this item can only be purchased once per user. You can find out more about Gold and its uses in our dedicated article.

We hope that you will enjoy the offer and, as always:

Direct-Fire SPG: Testing
Commanders!
Not so long ago, we unveiled our plan to overhaul the Self-Propelled Gun vehicle class into direct-firing vehicles. We have gathered your preliminary feedback but in order to evaluate it further, we’ve prepared a demonstration for you.
The plan is rather simple. In the next update, we’ll be introducing a direct-firing version of the Tier 6 Akatsiya SPG as a separate vehicle (temporarily in the Tank Destroyer class) and will be handing it out to every active account.
For one week, you’ll have the opportunity to try it out and submit your feedback via the form linked below. After the week passes, this vehicle will be removed from your account and its performance analyzed along with your feedback.
Click on the image below to open the form:
The following rewards are available during the testing:
While using the testbed Akatsiya:
Win 5 matches in PvP to receive 250 Battle Coins for the Eclipse Battle Path
Win 10 matches in PvE to recieve another 250 Battle Coins for the Eclipse Battle Path
Three randomly chosen feedback posts submitted via the form will receive 6.000 Battle Coins
Please note:
The event begins on May 25 (with a regular Thursday maintenance)
The testbed vehicle will be removed from your account after the end of the event
Visual customization used on the testbed vehicle will not be compensated in any way (install anything at your own peril)
The testbed vehicle does not count towards any missions or objectives and may experience other issues not connected to the tests
The vehicle is for the purposes of this test introduced as a Tank Destroyer
Only those feedback posts where the submitter did clearly put some effort into them are eligible for a reward
The rewards will be sent after the end of the event
We hope you’ll have fun during this temporary event and, as always:
See you on the battlefield!
