Commanders!

Since the Rough Riders Battle Path is coming soon and we’d like to take one more look at its weird and cool vehicles that you’ll have the opportunity to obtain soon.

First is the ELKE. While a combination of an unmanned turret and a light hull might seem unremarkable first, it is anything but. The most important part of the vehicle is, of course, its ability to depress and elevate its gun using a complex system. Here you can see it in action. The vehicle boasts -25/+20 depression and elevation angles.

And then there is the incredibly powerful (for its Tier) 75mm gun that is basically a crossbreed between a regular gun and an autocannon. Indeed, it is capable of automatic fire:

This light tank will be capable of tremendous speed but it will also allow you to ambush your enemies while taking cover behind a hill thanks to that elevated gun. What will be your tactic of choice? You decide.

The RDF/LT Ares is somewhat similar to the ELKE, but instead of focusing on the gun (which remains awesome despite being a Tier higher), it adds guided missiles to the equation. The regular missiles are nothing to scoff at, but the high-explosive Stinger missiles are devastating.

Fast and deadly, the Ares will decimate all opposition of played correctly.

And last but not least, we have the XM1302 on the top Tier. Here, the highlight of the tank (aside from its firepower and mobility) will be its new ability, “Mitigation” – this ability allows the vehicle to take reduced damage when moving fast, as demonstrated below:

We aim to make the XM1302 one of the most powerful vehicles of Armored Warfare thanks to its combination of a rapid-firing cannon and great mobility. This vehicle will be perfect for players who prefer not to stand still, but instead dart around the battlefield, aiding their allies or even single handedly decimating whole squads of enemies in a relentless assault.

And that’s about it, commanders, now you know everything about the next Battle Path. Well... almost everything, as we have one or two surprises left for you. But for now, saddle up because the event is about to start and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

Commanders!

Today we’ve prepared the following items for you:

• Object 490 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank

• Object 640 Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank

• M-95 Degman Tier 8 Premium Main Battle Tank

• ZUBR PSP Tier 7 Premium Tank Destroyer

• BWP-2000 Tier 7 Premium Armored Fighting Vehicle

• Shadow Protocol Loot Crate (final offer)

Between July 17 and July 22, 2025, the following items will be available:

The Object 490 Main Battle Tank was an advanced concept from the waning days of the Soviet Union. Designed in the 1980s, it represented a radical departure from the MBT paradigm. Its distinct wedge-like shape, along with the fact that the crew was located in the back, offered unparalleled levels of protection. But the most interesting part of the design was its double suspension paired with two engines, allowing the vehicle to stay mobile even after suffering significant damage. However, the conclusion of the Cold War put an end to this design, along with many other advanced Soviet projects. You can learn more about this vehicle in our dedicated article.

In Armored Warfare, the Object 490 Tier 10 Premium MBT is perhaps the best armored vehicle in the game. It’s a true behemoth that is almost impossible to slow down, let alone knock out, and concentrated effort is required to stop one of these things when encountering them on the battlefield. The combination of extremely thick armor and a powerful 152mm gun makes this tank incredibly deadly, even though these advantages are balanced by its mediocre agility and the fact that its gun is only forward facing. This MBT is ideal for you if you prefer slow, methodical advances while dealing massive amounts of damage with each shot. If you keep your flanks secure, you’ll be all but impossible to stop.

The Object 490 MBT is available in our Web Shop via Loot Crates. Collect 100 blueprint pieces from these crates to obtain the vehicle.

The Object 640 is one of the last Soviet era “super tank” monsters, designed to surpass anything the west could field on the battlefield. It featured extremely advanced armor, making it highly resistant to hits while keeping its weight low. The design was truly revolutionary for the late 1980s, but, like with many other Soviet projects of the era, it was discontinued due to the lack of funding. You can learn more about it in a dedicated article.

In Armored Warfare, the Object 640 “Black Eagle” is a Tier 10 Premium Main Battle Tank. It is a fast, agile and well-protected vehicle that plays in a typical Russian-style MBT fashion – ideal for players who want to take things up close and personal. This version of the tank does not feature any camouflage and is ready to be customized as you see fit.

The Object 640 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 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.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

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.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

The Shadow Protocol Loot Crate is now available. This Loot Crate contains Shadow Protocol Battle Coins and Boosters.

• Battle Coins are the primary currency of the Shadow Protocol 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!

https://armoredwarfare.com/en/web-shop?tags=loot

The Boxer RIWP is a combination of a Tracked Boxer hull and a modular turret called RIWP. Both components are fairly new and haven’t been officially combined as of now but the Boxer platform can theoretically support this weapon system. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.

In Armored Warfare, the Boxer RIWP is a Tier 10 Premium AFV that’s unique for one reason – it offers five fairly distinctive weapon configurations along with a reliable autocannon capable of quickly dealing with lighter targets. It can also deploy Mechanized Infantry.

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

You can read more about it in our dedicated article.

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.

This vehicle is also available in a special bundle, which contains the following items:

• AMX-10 RCR Tier 8 Premium TD

• Vive la France skin for AMX-10 RCR

• République skin for ERC-90 F4 Sagaie

• 500 Gold

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

We’ve also prepared two French historical camouflages. In reality, it’s pretty much one iconic camouflage with two different layouts that is most famous for its appearance on the Leclerc MBT. It consists of green, brown and black stripes and is available in two variants – one has the edges clearly defined while the other variant has them blurred. Both were observed on the Leclerc MBT, sometimes even on vehicles from the same series.

Please note that each of these camouflages can be installed on any vehicle that has the camouflage customization feature available (any vehicle with the exception of vehicles with permanent skins) and that each of these camouflages can be used in all three environments.

The Leopard 2 Revolution is a continuation of the older Evolution upgrade, intended to improve the performance of the older variants of the Leopard 2 Main Battle Tank in order to make it excel even on the battlefields of the 21st century. The improvements include a comprehensive armor upgrade, ROSY soft-kill APS and smoke grenade launchers as well as an entire suite of cutting edge electronics. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.

In Armored Warfare, the Leopard 2 Revolution is a Tier 8 Main Battle Tank. It is not only well-armored, it also features an extremely accurate 120mm gun with advanced ammunition, allowing it to destroy its opponents at very long ranges, rivaling those of Tank Destroyers. The German tanks in general perform best at longer ranges and the Revolution is no exception.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

https://armoredwarfare.com/web-shop

The Marder 2 was an experimental German IFV, developed in the late 1980s to replace the aging Marder IFV. It featured more armor, a new turret and a brand-new Rheinmetall dual-caliber autocannon that could fire both 35mm and 50mm rounds. Despite its qualities, the vehicle was never accepted in service due to its high cost and because it was no longer needed because of the fall of the Soviet Union. A single surviving prototype can be found today in the Koblenz military collection. You can read more about it in our dedicated article.

In Armored Warfare, the Marder 2 is a Tier 8 Armored Fighting Vehicle. With its 44 tons, it’s one of the heaviest and toughest AFVs around. Unlike many other AFVs of its Tier, it is not armed with guided missiles, relying instead on its extremely powerful 50mm autocannon. This vehicle can also deploy Mechanized Infantry.

This bundle is available in our Web Shop.

Commanders!

The Rough Riders Battle Path is coming in the second half of July and, as usual, we’d like to take a moment to tell you more about its prizes.

As you already know, the topic of this Battle Path is the history of U.S. light tanks – or, rather, the U.S. cavalry. As such, the Battle Path features numerous American-themed prizes, including vehicles and everything else. As usual, we have three new Premium vehicles for you:

• ELKE Tier 7 Premium LT for reaching Level 20 (featuring an elevated weapons station allowing you to ambush your enemies with ease)

• RDF/LT Ares Tier 8 Premium LT for reaching Level 35 (featuring powerful missile launchers as well as 75mm gun)

• XM1302 Tier 10 Premium LT for reaching Level 50 (featuring new “Mitigation” passive ability – the faster you go, the less damage you take)

Additionally, you can earn the following older vehicles by progressing down this Battle Path:

• T92 ACAV Tier 2 Premium Light Tank

• RDF/LT Tier 6 Premium Light Tank

• M60A3 SLEP Tier 6 Premium Main Battle Tank

• Expeditionary LT Tier 6 Premium Light Tank

• Griffin 120mm Tier 8 Premium Light Tank

It also has to be mentioned that the Light Tanks from the vehicle pool are getting buffed. You can learn more about that in our dedicated article.

You will also be able to earn the MPF Tier 10 Premium Light Tank via blueprints available in the Battle Path Shop. The M10 Booker skin for it was also added to the Battle Path Shop pool.

There is also a returning Premium commander called Anthony Diaz for reaching Level 49. This rugged commander has a set of versatile skills that make him suitable for a lot of vehicles.

And last but not least, some of the most epic skins and camouflages are making a return as well, including (but not limited to):

• Full set of Prime skins

• Freedom Rider skin

• Ridgway skin for M8-120

• Rough Rider skin for M60A3 SLEP

• Gunslinger skin for the T249 Vigilante

• Asgard skin for the M1A2

• Vanguard skin for CATTB

• Full set of MERDCS camouflages

• Reforger 83 camouflages

• Skins for the reward Light Tanks mentioned above (such as Acid and Reaper)

Here are some of them:

But those are older prizes, what you want to see are some new ones, right? Let’s take a look at some of the new skins and camouflages that are coming in this Battle Path:

This skin for the Bradley is called M3A2 Cavalry Fighting Vehicle.

The M3 series of the Bradley platform is built for reconnaissance, carrying fewer troops and more ammunition and sensors instead. This particular Bradley belonged to the 1st Squadron of the 4th Cavalry Regiment, as seen in November 2004 during Operation Iraqi Freedom, the American invasion of Iraq.

We chose the Bradley not only for its cavalry version, but also because it’s one of the best performing IFVs in the game currently. And to make things even better, we finally made Bradley’s launcher elevate and depress in battle. Take a look:

Next skin we have for you is called IPM1 Danger Zone for the M1 Abrams MBT.

The "Danger Zone" was an IPM1 Abrams participating in (and winning) the 1987 Canadian Army Trophy that took place in the Bergen-Hohne training area. It belonged to Company D of the 4th Squadron, 8th Cavalry Regiment, 3rd Armored Division in West Germany. It used a stylized version of the "Bill the Cat" cartoon as its emblem, which was an inside poke at one of its rivals, 3-64 Armor, who had been using the comic-strip cat Garfield as its mascot.

Another major emblem was the "Spearhead" belonging to the 3rd Armored Division, located at the back of the turret. The flags on the vehicle were event-specific and were not used in regular service. The Canadian flag was in recognition of the close training between the team and the Royal Canadian Dragoons. And, last but not least, the name "Danger Zone" came from a popular song from the Top Gun movie.

As you can see, the skin converts the M1 into an IPM1 with its rear turret stowage.

The third skin we have for you is called M60A3 Crustacean.

The "Crustacean" was an M60A1 tank serving in Germany in the 1970s with the 73rd Armor Regiment. It was one of the vehicles selected to test the new camouflage patterns coming out of the MASSTER program in Fort Hood. The variant used on this particular vehicle used two primary colors – Rust Brown and Sand, each covering roughly 40 percent of the vehicle in wide areas. The rest was divided between Forest Green and Black colors. This camouflage appeared in 1973 and was used on multiple vehicles of the VII Corps. The emblem on the tank consisted of a stylized depiction of the Mk.VII Liberty tank from the First World War with a shell on top of it. The meaning of this emblem is unknown.

While the original “Crustacean” was an M60A1, we decided to adapt the skin for the M60A3 Main Battle Tank as the M60A1 already has a nice historical skin (the USMC, also available via the Battle Path Shop or during events). The skin is available for both its configurations:

As for the camouflages, colors and decals – as we mentioned above, these follow the history of U.S. cavalry from the Revolutionary War and the American fight with the British.

The Civil War was also a major milestone of the U.S. cavalry history with both sides relying on brilliant commanders and brave soldiers.

Then came the Rough Rider era and both World Wars that saw the cavalry change into a powerful mechanized force.

The Cold War saw the cavalry change again into an Air Cavalry branch with helicopters and Armored Cavalry with heavy vehicles, including tanks.

And even after the fall of the Soviet Union, America’s greatest adversary, the cavalry units continue to uphold their traditions as a new threat rises to challenge the most powerful military the world has ever seen.

This and much more is waiting for you in the Rough Riders Battle Path. We hope that you’ll enjoy this event and, as always:

See you on the battlefield!

Commanders!
