Soviet-Japanese battles historically took place in Manchuria shortly before and during World War II. Yet few people know that the Soviets were racing against the US to land on the Solomon Islands. In fact, no one knew about this at all. And they still don’t. Even the Japanese army didn’t expect to face the might of the Soviet forces in the middle of the Pacific Ocean!
In this experimental event, the armies of the USSR and Japan meet in battle on “Pacific War” locations and you have access to a balanced set of weapons and squads.
From July 22nd (13:00 UTC) to August 6th (13:00 UTC), get battle score in battles and move up the rewards ladder! Please note that you have only one day to complete each task!
To speed up the process of earning event progress, you will be able to purchase a booster that will increase the battle score counted for the tasks by +25% (however this will not increase the rewards from battles)! In addition to the booster, you will also receive a unique nickname decorator!
Rewards
You’ll get rewards during the whole event, and the further you progress through it, the more valuable they’ll become. You can easily skip a few tasks and still get the main rewards!

Rider squad with М72 PTRS (USSR, BR I)
A heavy Soviet motorcycle manufactured by MMZ, based on the pre-war German BMW R71 motorcycle.
Various weapons could be mounted on the sidecar versions - for example, this one features a PTRS 41 anti-tank rifle.
The squad includes two Rider class soldiers and an engineer with a submachine gun.
Heavy Tank No.6 (Japan, BR V)
In May 1943, Japan made an offer to the German government to buy a Tiger E tank (chassis number: 250455). It was planned to be shipped by sea in a disassembled state and assembled later.
Although the deal was finalized and even paid for by the Japanese side, the tank was never actually shipped to Japan. But have no doubt - you will receive it!
The tank comes without a squad and is available for the 1st Armored Regiment (Tanker II).
