Today we’ve prepared the following items for you:

• Type 10 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank
• Hunter Tier 9 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle
• Pindad SBS Tier 8 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle
• Type 89 Tier 7 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle
• K21 Tier 8 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle
• Europe's Edge Loot Crate

Between May 23 and May 30, 2024, the following items will be available:

 
 

The Type 10 MBT is the most modern Japanese Main Battle Tank in service and one of the most advanced war machines in the world. Using sophisticated electronics and crystalline steel armor, this tank is more than a match for any enemy that would threaten the islands of Japan. You can learn more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Type 10 is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. What puts it apart from the other MBTs of its Tier is its special NERA armor. This highly-mobile MBT starts every battle well-armored, but the protection levels decrease with every shot taken. Additionally, this MBT features a special system that tells you the exact chance to penetrate your target. Overall, it’s one of the most powerful MBTs of its Tier and certainly a good choice for players, who prefer rapid action to slow advances.

The Type 10 Tier 10 Premium MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.

 

 

 
 

Another alternative name for this vehicle is NGAFV (or Next Gen AFV), since it belongs to a whole program to replace the obsolete M113 APC in Singaporean service and to operate alongside its predecessor, another indigenous Singaporean IFV called Bionix. Hunter is the name of the production model of this program. The Hunter AFV is the pinnacle of bleeding edge of technology. In this sense, it can be compared to the AS21 Redback and both vehicles share several characteristics, not the least of which being relatively large size. This bulky IFV offers considerable levels of protection and firepower. It is expected to serve in the Singaporean army in large numbers in the near future with its mass-production having recently begun. You can read more about its history in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Hunter AFV is a Tier 9 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle. As its description above suggests, it is a rather standard-sized IFV with good levels of protection and excellent firepower (consisting of a 30mm autocannon and a Spike ATGM launcher). It also features a recently introduced type of armor, NERA. Simply put, NERA is an ablative armor kit that deteriorates whenever it gets hit. In other words, the vehicle starts with excellent protection levels but it will lose some with damage taken as the battle progresses. Apart from that, the vehicle is adequately mobile and quite universal. It can, of course, also deploy Mechanized Infantry.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

 

 

 
 

The SBS platform is one of the first domestic armored vehicles developed by Pindad (the largest Indonesian armor producer) for Indonesia and is officially listed as a “light tank”. It was developed sometimes in the early 2010s with some prototypes in different configuration appearing in public in 2014 or so. The variant in the game is a long-range MLRS fire support vehicle with a 122mm multi-barreled rocket launcher. You can learn more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Pindad SBS is a Tier 8 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle. This AFV is fairly unique, since its main weapon is a multi-barreled rocket launcher capable of firing over obstacles. This makes the Pindad incredibly powerful in both offense and defense. Static enemy targets stand no chance! This vehicle is best used with Commander Ophelia Kitescu and in a platoon – the firepower of such a formation is truly without equal.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

 

 

 
 

The Type 89 Infantry Fighting Vehicle is the current Japanese service IFV. It was built in very small numbers between 1989 and 2004. The low-production meant that, with the development costs sunk into it, each unit was incredibly expensive. In fact, to date, the Type 89 is the most expensive IFV in the world. Otherwise it’s generally unremarkable – last generation steel armor, a 35mm autocannon and massive guided missiles (that were also meant for landing ship destruction instead of just anti-tank combat) are generally being all phased out by now. The Type 89 is, however, still waiting for its replacement. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Type 89 is a Tier 7 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle that is capable of not only deploying Mechanized Infantry, but also to destroy its targets at long distances using its powerful guided missiles. It is also fast and maneuverable, but does not feature thick armor.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

 

 

 
 

The K21 is a modern Infantry Fighting Vehicle, designed to replace the K200 series in the Korean Army. It features good protection and a hi-tech weapon system with the "hunter-killer" capability. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the K21 is a Tier 8 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle. In the game, it is an IFV with solid protection and firepower, but also excellent mobility. It carries Mechanized Infantry.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

 

 

 
 

The Europe's Edge Loot Crate is now available. This Loot Crate contains Europe's Edge Battle Coins and Boosters.


 

• Battle Coins are the primary currency of the Europe's Edge Battle Path campaign and are used to progress through it and to obtain its prizes.
• Battle Coin Boosters are usable only during an active Battle Path and increase your Battle Coin income by 900 percent for two hours.

Please note that you have to obtain the access to a Battle Path to use both items.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

 

 

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

See you on the battlefield!

Commanders!

Yes, it’s that time already. Today we’d like to tell you more about the first prize of the upcoming Tales from the Dark Battle Path. The first machine obtainable will be the BTR-82A Armored Fighting Vehicle.



The BTR-82A is a modified version of the BTR-80, which itself is an evolution of BTR-70 so it makes sense to start in the past. In fact, let’s go all the way back to the 1950s. Back then, the Soviet Army was equipped with an armored six-wheeled variant of the ZIS-151 truck called BTR-152. BTR stands simply for “bronetransporter”, commonly translated as “armored personnel carrier” or simply “APC.” It had a lot of weaknesses, the chief amongst them being the inability to keep up with tanks and other tracked vehicles in difficult terrain, especially when crossing trenches and other obstacles. Despite this, it was a successful vehicle produced between 1950 well into the 1960s that was widely exported and license-built in China.



But the Soviet Army demanded more – a troop carrier of excellent off-road capabilities and none of the issues the BTR-152 had. And that’s how the BTR-60 was born. The BTR-60 model had sloped frontal armor for improved protection and excellent mobility thanks to its eight wheels. It wasn’t exactly well-protected on the sides (anti-bullet armor, steel only) but that wasn’t really a requirement. The important part was the fact it could finally keep up with armored formations and could, like the BMP-1, swim. It entered Soviet service in 1960 under the name BTR-60P (P stands for “plavayushiy” – “amphibious”) and would be produced in several modifications (the most successful being the BTR-60PB) for another nearly three decades until 1987 with over 10.000 built (but western sources claim as many as 25.000).



An upgrade of the BTR-60PB called BTR-70 was developed in 1969 with some differences that aren’t really all that obvious to an untrained eye – mostly a longer hull and more powerful engines (the BTR-60PB had two 90hp engines and the BTR-70 had two 120hp engines). It was accepted in service in 1971 and produced from 1976 well into the 1980s with, once again, several thousand vehicles built and exported.



Enter the 1980s and the Afghan War. The wartime experience gave birth to another upgrade in the lines of eight-wheeled BTRs, called BTR-80. The BTR-70 suffered from a number of issues, including reliability problems of its two carbureted engines, poor protection and the general layout of the design. The BTR-80 solved some of these with the engines being replaced by a single 260hp diesel. The exit door was also redesigned and was located on the side of the vehicle.

To accommodate that as well as other changes, the BTR-80 was longer, wider and heavier than its predecessor, but not by a lot (the weight increased by 2 tons to 13.5 tons). The drawback was that the protection was increased only slightly and still consisted of welded steel plates that could only stop small arms (the sloped front was 10mm thick, the sides were 7mm to 9mm thick).



Despite the weight increase and the engine change, the mobility remained roughly the same (the operational range actually increased). The vehicle was still pretty fast and could reach the speed of 80 km/h (40 km/h off-road). It could also swim (the maximum swimming speed was 9 km/h). The armament consisted of a machinegun in a small turret (like its predecessors) and that was about it.

This APC entered service in 1986 and remained in production well beyond the fall of the Soviet Union with roughly 4000 built. Former Soviet republics inherited their share of the BTR-80 and the vehicle was also exported to several dozen countries. Numerous upgrades were also developed and produced, including the BTR-80A APC from 1994 that was armed with 30mm autocannon in a new turret, significantly increasing its firepower. Even today, the BTR-80 remains quite a common sight despite the concept being somewhat obsolete.



The obsolescence stems from the fact that the world has simply moved on from large masses of cheaper APC vehicles to more expensive but less numerous infantry fighting vehicles – at least in frontline service. The reasons are simple – few countries have manpower to spare and as modern weapons require more and more specialized and better trained troops, the life of each individual soldier has become a precious commodity.

The BTR-80 production stopped in 2011 and especially Russia was left with hundreds (if not thousands) of these in its stocks as well as the tooling to produce even more. Additionally, there was the experience from the 1990s and 2000s wars to consider (mostly Chechnya).

To use all that potential and mould it into something new, a large upgrade of both the BTR-80 and BTR-80A variants was developed by AMZ (Arzamas Machine-Building Plant) between 2009 and 2011 with the first prototypes being ready in 2009 and tested extensively in 2010. These upgrades proved to be so comprehensive that each vehicle received a new designation:

• The BTR-80 upgrade (machinegun version) received the designation BTR-82
• The BTR-80A upgrade (version with 30mm autocannon) received the designation BTR-82A

The main goals of the upgrade were stated to be a general upgrade of most characteristics as well as reliability and, upon its reveal, it was stated that the upgraded vehicles had 2 times higher combat value than their earlier BTR-80 counterparts while retaining the crew of 2 men and the ability to carry 8 more in the back.



The biggest upgrade was the firepower. The BTR-82A was equipped with a new unmanned turret with a stabilized gun mount housing the 30mm 2A72 autocannon along with a coaxial 7.62mm PKT machinegun. The turret was designed so that it could carry other types of armament as well (like foreign alternatives to the main armament for export). During the development, the 14.5mm KPVT machinegun variant was dropped entirely.

The gunner had a new stabilized TKN-4GA sight at his disposal. It wasn’t all roses and sunshine as the initial accuracy when firing on the move was quite low (due to the inherent instability of the wheeled platform compared to a tracked one). These issues were, however, solved to the point where the BTR-82A was about as accurate on the move as a BMP-2.

While the armor remained fairly thin (basically anti-bullet only), the crew protection was increased by including a new aramid spall liner. The bottom was also redesigned and included spaced plates in order to increase the protection from mines. The vehicle retained the side hatches, making it faster for the troops to disembark and to use whichever hatch was more convenient (or at least that was the theory).



These changes of course increased the vehicle’s weight (to 16 tons), which was compensated by the installation of a more powerful engine (KamAZ-740.14-300 diesel producing 300hp) along with transmission and suspension improvements. The BTR-82A also remained amphibious. There were other improvements in electronics as well and an air conditioner was installed to increase the crew’s comfort.

The vehicle officially entered Russian service in December 2012 and was first shown to the public during the 2013 Victory Day military parade in Moscow. At that moment it was already two years in production (since 2011). It’s worth noting that these were all newly built vehicles – older BTR-80s were also converted to the BTR-82 standard (but these refitted vehicles became designated BTR-82AM). The conversions weren’t much cheaper though – due to the extent of the overhaul, the cost of such a vehicle was only roughly 15% lower than that of a new one.

The production of the BTR-82 is running to this day with the estimates varying between 1500 vehicles built to more than 2000 (how many of these are newly built or conversions is unclear). At the moment it is only covering the needs of the Russian Army, although in the past the vehicle seems to have been exported in some numbers, most notably to Kazakhstan. It was also seen in Syria during the Russian intervention (and some of these were allegedly transferred to Syrian hands).



Interestingly enough, sources vary wildly when it comes to foreign sales of the BTR:

• Azerbaijan is supposed to have 100 to 200 according to some (from 2018-2023) and used them during the Nagorny Karabakh war in 2020 (which seems plausible as one of these was captured by the Armenians)
• Belarus is supposed to have around 30
• Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan are supposed to have anywhere between 20 and 110

The BTR-82A has seen several conflicts since its introduction. As was mentioned above, it was used in Syria in 2015, in 2020 during the Armenia-Azerbaijan war and, most notably, during the Ukraine conflict where a number of them were captured by the Ukrainians.



Several upgrades were developed for the vehicle over the years, including a spaced armor kit, a slat armor kit on top of that and two Kornet launchers added to the turret.



But even in its basic state, it’s a solid machine that’s performing well on the battlefield – or, rather, as well as can be expected with the changes the use of drones en masse has brought.

In Armored Warfare, the BTR-82A will be a Tier 8 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle.

What you’re looking at is a lot of firepower in a relatively fragile package. At first glance it’s obvious that the BTR-82A is not well-armored and even though an armor kit will be available as a Battle Path overprogression module, the armor will be nowhere near as thick as on other modern IFVs.



However, the vehicle’s other traits more than make up for this handicap. The BTR-82A will not only be highly mobile thanks to its low weight and powerful engine. We’re thinking:

• 3.8s to 32 km/h
• 21.41s to its maximum speed of 80 km/h
• Hull traverse rate 47 deg/s

But, most importantly, the BTR-82A will essentially feature Tier 10 firepower as its autocannon is similar to that used by the T-15 with the same shells, accuracy and all that. We will naturally tune down the damage output so that it doesn’t dominate everything on its Tier but its firepower will still be very high. And that’s without the second overprogression update that will add two twin-tube Kornet launchers to the vehicle (again, similar to the T-15 Armata) – and yes, they will come with the double launch feature.



For the future, the vehicle will also receive a new ability called Drone Jamming that will, as its name suggest, counter drones (the visual model will have the Volnorez jammer on it).



In summation, the BTR-82A will be a glass cannon IFV with thin armor but a lot of firepower – a great tool for either risky PvP gameplay or overall great PvE performance.

We hope that you’ll like it and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

Commanders!

In today’s developer diary, we’ll discuss the changes we made to the Boxer RIWP Tier 10 Premium AFV.



This vehicle was available as the top prize of the Exile Battle Path and the changes we made included specifically:

• Hydra turret no longer fires two rockets at once, adjusted the rate of fire to compensate
• TOW turret no longer fires two missiles at once, the time between launches changed to 2s
• Brimstone turret time between shots increased to 4s
• Starstreak turret no longer fires two missiles at once, adjusted the rate of fire to compensate
• Hybrid turret no longer fires two missiles at once, the time between launches changed to 2s

One of the more common complaints from long-time players was that the turrets were too similar to play and, indirectly, there were two superior configurations that overshadowed all the others (Hydra and Brimstone). This limited the choice players had to pretty much one. In the current iteration, however, the launchers serve the following function:

• Hydra rocket pods are a much more reliable close-range fighting option as we made the rockets fire consistently instead of the previous double launches that were powerful but had a higher skill ceiling, making this configuration more comfortable to play
• TOW ATGM configuration was buffed and now represents a basic, reliable option that works for most situations. Previously, this configuration was underpowered and therefore underused but now represents a viable choice for players who do not have a preferred gameplay style and like things that work
• Brimstone ATGM configuration previously utterly overshadowed the TOW configuration. It’s still very powerful but instead of the more consistent damage output of the TWO configuration, you have longer reload times and therefore have to be a bit more careful how you aim (we kept the partial reload option in order not to nerf it to the ground)
• Starstreak configuration is a damage-output-centric long-range option to the Brimstones now as it no longer deals so much damage per shot due to the removal of the double launch option and requires players to stay more in the open to perform well – a nerf, but a needed one

The Hybrid configuration is still a work in progress as we aren’t really that happy about its performance. While the single launch Brimstone launchers do work better, the Javelin locking time seems excessive and we’ll be looking to reduce that to make the turret more comfortable.

Right now, the Boxer RIWP performs within expected parameters and, given its popularity, we consider the change a success. Do you though? Let us know on Discord and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

On the 23rd of May 2024, starting from 8:00 CEST, the server will not be available for 2 hours due to a planned server maintenance.

Today we’ve prepared the following items for you:

• ZTZ-20 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank
• Panzer 87-140 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank
• M-95 Degman Tier 8 Premium Main Battle Tank
• Type 96B Tier 8 Premium Main Battle Tank
• M1A1 Storm Tier 7 Premium Main Battle Tank
• MBT-70 Tier 6 Premium Main Battle Tank
• Treasure Trove with 10.000 Gold
• Europe's Edge Boosters

Between May 16 and May 23, 2024, the following items will be available:

 
 

The ZTZ-20 is a fictional Chinese Main Battle Tank for the 21st century. It combines western influences with some ideas taken from the T-14 Armata. You can read about its (real and fictional) history in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the ZTZ-20 is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. On its own, it’s a beast of a machine and one of the most powerful vehicles in the game, featuring both a powerful gun and thick armor. It does have a special feature though – its missiles can cover a wide area with burning White Phosphorus that reduces enemy vehicle camouflage and deals damage to anyone entering the zone.

The ZTZ-20 MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.

 

 

 
 

The Panzer 87-140 is an experimental version of Panzer 87 (Swiss Leopard 2A4), fitted with a RUAG 140mm smoothbore cannon and an armor kit called WE. It was developed in the 1980s and early 1990s to counter the next generation of Soviet MBTs, but with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the project was shelved, only to resurface around 2005-2006 but never passing the experimental stage. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Panzer 87-140 is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. Much like other Leopard series MBTs, it’s a long-range fighter with an extremely powerful gun and the ability to fire with pinpoint accuracy. Even though its armor leaves much to be desired, at long range, this MBT has few equals and can be considered one of the best snipers of its class.

The Panzer 87-140 Tier 10 Premium MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.

 

 

 
 

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.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

 

 

 
 

The Type 96B MBT, as its name suggests, is an evolution of the Type 96A, featuring such elements as an upgraded fire control system and a much more powerful engine, resulting in considerably better mobility and speed. Unlike the Type 96A, however, the Type 96B is a prototype, designed for the Chinese military team to use during the annual Tank Biathlon event in Russia. In 2017, the Chinese team won the second place, being defeated only by Russia. You can learn more about its history in our dedicated article!



In Armored Warfare, the Type 96B is a Tier 8 Premium Main Battle Tank. Gameplay-wise, it’s very agile and fast for its class and uses advanced ammunition, making it highly suitable for players who prefer mobility over armor protection, even though it can take a lot of punishment as well.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

 

 

 
 

In 1985, the Abrams was upgraded with, amongst other things, the 120mm M256 smoothbore cannon. Over 5000 M1A1 tanks were produced until 1992. This tank participated in Operation Desert Storm, which forged its legendary reputation.



In Armored Warfare, the M1A1 Storm is a Tier 7 Premium Main Battle Tank. The M1A1 Storm look was inspired by Operation Desert Storm, including a gorgeous camouflage net model. But, more importantly, this tank is equipped with a massive frontal dozer blade, adding extra armor and ramming damage to the long list of its advantages.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

 

 

 
 

Germany and the United States cooperated in the 1960s and 70s to create the ultimate Main Battle Tank to replace the aging Patton tank series in service. The MBT-70 prototype tank was the U.S. result of the development program. It was exceptionally well armed with a 152mm gun, capable of firing guided missiles and equipped with cutting edge technology, but high costs and endless delays in development led to the cancellation of this project and the subsequent adoption of a more reasonable design – the Abrams.



In Armored Warfare, the MBT-70 is a Tier 6 Premium Main Battle Tank. Several features make it quite unique – it has a large caliber gun that, while slow to reload, delivers tremendous damage with each shot. It can also fire devastating guided missiles and while its mobility levels aren’t the best, it can devastate its opponents with well-timed shots, relying on its armor to keep it alive while it reloads. And last but not least, this vehicle has a hydraulic suspension available, allowing it to tilt its hull to improve its gun depression and elevation.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

 

 

 
 

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.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

This week, we prepared a set of small missions for you with various clown-themed assets to terrify your opponents because let’s face it – clowns are scary, especially the most recent kind. And because the event’s clown-themed, we thought we’d make you play some of the worst vehicles of Armored Warfare (that we are aware of) before we buff their performance in the near future, just for kicks (so consider this mission a spoiler of sorts).



Without further ado, here’s what you can win:

Between May 15 and May 26, 2024:

• Win 7 matches of any type using OT-65A to receive the Joker camouflage
• Win 7 matches of any type using M1 Abrams to receive the Joker Violet base paint
• Win 7 matches of any type using ERC 90 F4 to receive the Joker Green base paint

Once you complete all three of these missions, the following missions can also be completed (you can technically complete them even before the three but if you don’t complete the other three, they won’t count):

• Win 7 matches of any type using LAV-300 to receive the player title “Joker”
• Win 7 matches of any type using ZBL-08 to receive player avatar “Joker”

Players who complete all 5 missions will also receive 4 Battle Coin boosters.

Please note:

• The prizes will be handed out after the end of the event
• The mission begins on May 15 at 00:01 CEST and ends on May 26 at 22:59 CEST

We hope you’ll enjoy the event and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

The General Dynamics Light Tank prototype is one of the contenders in the U.S. Mobile Protected Firepower program to replace the Stryker platform in the fire support role for the U.S. Airborne forces. It is one of very few modern Light Tanks in existence. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the MPF is a Tier 10 Premium Light Tank. Within its class, it’s one of the heaviest and the best protected specimen with its hull protected by NERA armor capable of absorbing damage in the initial stages of battle. With its powerful 120mm gun and decent mobility, it is a decent front-line fighter, holding its own even in the thickest of fighting.

The MPF Tier 10 Premium LT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.

 

 

 
 

The Streetfighter II is an upgrade program to overhaul the venerable Challenger 2 Main Battle Tank for the conditions of modern battlefields, especially urban combat. It features a number of improvements and extra components, most notably a dozer blade, a Brimstone ATGM twin launcher and an advanced camera system by Elbit. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Challenger 2 Streetfighter is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. Its main advantages include excellent frontal armor (enhanced by the presence of its dozer blade covering its lower frontal plate), increased ramming damage and long range lethality, courtesy of a powerful ATGM launcher. Whether you desire to bring the fighting up close or support other MBTs at distance, the Streetfighter’s got your back.

The Bradley AAWS-H Tank Destroyer was an attempt by Loral Vought to mount four kinetic guided missiles on an extendable arm while using the Bradley IFV chassis as a platform. Kinetic missiles were cutting edge tech back in the 1980s – unlike standard ATGMs, they destroyed the target by their kinetic energy instead of a HEAT warhead, accelerating to several times the speed of sound. There was little to no defense against them, although they did have some drawbacks, which was why they were never adopted in real life. You can read more about the vehicle in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Bradley AAWS-H is a Tier 8 Premium Tank Destroyer. It’s an ATGM-based TD, carrying special kinetic missiles that actually become more effective with increasing distance to your target. It is the embodiment of a long-range missile carrier and is perfect for players who prefer sniping to close combat.

ADATS stands for “Air Defense Anti-Tank System,” describing its purpose very well. The system is intended to engage both air and ground armored targets. It was developed in the 1980s by a Swiss company called Oerlikon-Contraves and was offered as an interesting hybrid that would be able to deal with both Soviet tanks and helicopters or attack planes. Unfortunately for it, it came too late – only Canada would actually accept it in service and the end of the Cold War meant the end to all attempts at its large-scale introduction. The ADATS missiles were quite large but, more importantly, extremely fast and were certain to be extremely destructive to any Soviet armored targets, even though this thankfully never had to be tested in real combat. The ADATS turret was offered for a wide variety of platforms and was actively installed on a vehicle that is kind of like a cousin to the Stryker, the Canadian LAV-III. In this configuration, the vehicle was called MMEV.



In Armored Warfare, Stryker ADATS is a Tier 9 Premium Tank Destroyer. It is a wheeled vehicle armed with two weapon systems – powerful long-range guided missiles and short-range unguided rockets, offering it some survivability in short range combat as well as the ability to deal tremendous damage if left to its devices.

In 1985, the Abrams was upgraded with, amongst other things, the 120mm M256 smoothbore cannon. Over 5000 M1A1 tanks were produced until 1992. This tank participated in Operation Desert Storm, which forged its legendary reputation.



In Armored Warfare, the M1A1 Storm is a Tier 7 Premium Main Battle Tank. The M1A1 Storm look was inspired by Operation Desert Storm, including a gorgeous camouflage net model. But, more importantly, this tank is equipped with a massive frontal dozer blade, adding extra armor and ramming damage to the long list of its advantages.

Sometimes called the French Terminator, this vehicle was designed on the Leclerc MBT chassis with one purpose in mind – to accompany tanks and fight off infantry attacks the same way as the Russian BMPT series does. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Leclerc T40 is a Tier 9 Premium Tank Destroyer. It offers you a combination of a durable hull, rapid-fire 40mm automatic cannon and, most importantly, the Javelin missile system. Simply right-click the target, wait until it becomes locket and fire the Javelin ATGM – it will home itself on the target, attacking its weak roof armor. Thanks to this ability, the Leclerc T40 is one of the most destructive vehicles in the game.

The AMX 10 RCR is the updated variant of the French AMX 10 RC fire support vehicle by GIAT, originally developed in the early 1980s. This light and nimble wheeled 6x6 AFV was armed with a 105mm gun, allowing it to knock out even armored targets at considerable distances. Over 200 of these aging vehicles were upgraded by Nexter in 2010 with improved armor and electronics, enabling them to fulfill modern battlefield tasks until their eventual replacement by the Jaguar. You can learn more about its history in our dedicated article!



In Armored Warfare, the AMX 10 RCR is a Tier 8 wheeled Premium Tank Destroyer. It’s incredibly agile with its wheeled chassis allowing it to outrun pretty much any enemy on the battlefield save for the fastest AFVs. Its gun accuracy is also top notch, making this vehicle perfect for sniper-style gameplay as its thin armor can’t protect it against enemy shells at close distances. This vehicle also comes with the Hydraulic Suspension active ability.

The Sabre is an interesting British recon vehicle, assembled together from older Scorpion hulls and Fox turrets after both parts were brought to zero hour state (completely overhauled) by a company called Alvis. The resulting vehicle from the early 1990s was called Sabre and, considering it was made of decades old components, it worked fairly well as a scouting vehicle, participating in the Iraq War as well as in several peacekeeping missions. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.



In Armored Warfare, the Tier 6 Sabre Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle is one of the deadliest vehicles on the battlefield thanks to its rather unique upward-aimed Swingfire missile launcher that allows it to fire over obstacles or while hidden, for example behind uneven terrain. While being quite difficult to master, this ability makes it a potent ambusher, especially in skilled hands.

The Falcon is an experimental turret developed in the early 2000s in Jordan as an upgrade to the Jordanian Al-Hussein (Challenger 1) Main Battle Tanks. It's a low profile turret, armed with an automatically loaded Swiss 120mm L/50 RUAG smoothbore gun, capable of firing standard NATO ammunition. The operator controls the turret from inside the vehicle's hull, significantly improving crew protection. A prototype was built and tested, but the design was never mass-produced.



In Armored Warfare, the Challenger 1 Falcon is a Tier 8 Premium Main Battle Tank. The best word to characterize this lumbering behemoth in the game is “tough” – its excellent hull armor shrugs off most shells while the damage its low profile turret takes when it is reduced by 90% thanks to the fact the crew is not located directly in it. Despite being generally very slow and sluggish, the Challenger 1 Falcon can take tremendous punishment and is ideal for the players who prefer the British Main Battle Tank play style.
