Event Rewards
The main reward of the event will be the Italian all-weather attack helicopter - the A129 CBT Mangusta. It has good survivability and impressive armament. The helicopter's armament configuration is primarily aimed at active countermeasures against surface targets. For close combat, the helicopter is equipped with a 20mm M-197 Gatling gun system with very high damage. Also indispensable in close combat are 2 LAU-61 blocks for firing 70mm NAR rounds with a redesigned fire mode. This system automatically fires a full salvo with 1 click. At medium range, the Israeli Spike ER multifunction anti-tank missile system can be used effectively against enemy aircraft. For long-range combat, the helicopter's consoles are equipped with a modernised American heavy anti-tank missile system with BGM-71F missiles and an Israeli multi-purpose multi-platform missile system with laser target designation. Skilled and timely use of these systems can inflict considerable damage on the enemy.
This helicopter can be obtained by absolutely all players who have completed the Event Pass!
As the event progresses, players will have access to the Turkish ASWRocket anti-submarine launcher. The high speed of the projectiles and the fast reloading will allow you to effectively fight not only submarines but also torpedoes. There are also unique rewards for fans of ship and profile customisation: the Solar Dune flag, the Jo Ha'sano avatar and the Clan Navigator title.
The Ocean Ascendancy Bundle introduces an innovative concept for a versatile and stealthy battleship, the Pan Spatial Teton. Named after the mountain range of the same name in North America, the Teton symbolises unparalleled power, unyielding strength and true greatness. Unpretentious in both enemy type and range, the Teton's formidable armament allows it to emerge victorious from any battle.
- You can purchase Pan Spatial Teton during the event.
