You do remember that for the longest time gaijin refused to give a discount to the (losing) Axis vehicles during the May sale? Now they do. Same thing here. Since this battle was not an english civil war, ALL participants should receive something special for their side. For example, a unique He 111 P-6, Bf 109 E-8, KG 2’s 20 mm armed Do 17 Z-2s or a Ju 86 P/R

Since the people who started it lost, why should they get content? Leave the Germany slop for GERMAN themed events

So, which one is it and when will you learn to have the same description for the same task?

Whats the issue?
Both the thing you quoted and the thing highlighted say the exact same thing

“Earn 10,000 mission points with British aircraft” = aircraft only…
“Use the vehicle and finish the mission on it” = use whatever vehicle you want but finish in an aircraft…
See the difference?
Review of the Battle of britain pack:
cool for collectors, Mid as a plane to fly. slow but turns ok
If someone tries to turnfight you, they die. you climb fast, turn instantly and have ok firepower. only drawback is that its a little on the slow side
I regret not picking it up earlier. that engine is extremely powerful for the BR, you can chase down almost anyone, outclimb most and the clipped wings more than make up for being a little heavy as you can jink fighters easily from that roll speed
guns are ok, would prefer the 4x browning .303 and 2x hispano gunload over 2x hispano 2x browning .50 cals but this is a personal preference
its an early spit, you turn perfectly, mid guns and engine overheating all the time.
Its a Typhoon mk1b EARLY its only a three blade prop instead of a four blade prop like its later counterpart so loses some speed, accelleration and subsequent sustained turnrate. but at the same BR, its fine there but should be lower than the TT brother
Hits really hard, turns really hard at low altitude (hammered a japanese fighter in a one circle fight today its nuts)
Looks really nice. Glad to see Douglas Bader representation.

I think I’m most happy about the camouflage. Although I swear these spitfires come out 3 or 4 times a year. Feels like they’ve only recently been on sale

Feels like just the other day I saw Brit mains crying about how they never get historical sales, ask and you shall receive I guess

I decided to get it. The reinforced nature of it meant I felt it could tank a hit and being only 2.3, I didnt feel outclassed. In the 3.0 Spits, with the same loadout. I found myself a little undergunned.
yeah, this is the main reason I usually play the Plagis over it. But I really do need to start playing props a lot more. I have fun everytime, but for some reason find myself drawn towards the Tonkas and co most of the time.

take more punishment for a less refined flight. Do think the tropical hurricane is best with the 12 guns however i think id take the 40mm hurricane over all other hurricanes nowadays,
i know youre a simulator man but maybe start hopping into discord calls with me for some realistic mode flights from time to time, would be fun
I can never land hits with those :D
I am… for higher BRs…
Havent gotten into prop Sim much yet, its a whole other learning curve, was thinking about starting with the Mossies coming this major and next. Ideally id like some foot rudder pedals to help with managing the yaw, but cant afford them.
ARB, I find kinda stale above about 6.0, with a few minor exceptions like the Tonka GR4
So, definetly down for RB and cleaning house in the Spits in a squad
similar to the 47mm tempest, theres a knack to it which i for some reason kinda figured out.
i get that, unless you have contrarotating props it can be finnicky. may be worth starting with the wyvern or FR47 seafire at first.
agreed, ARB is only fun from 3.0-6.0 and 8.7-11.7 IMO avoid biplanes, second gen jets (other than the fun ones like hunter) and to straight to SRAAM smacking or 9L jousts before peacing out as soon as you see an AIM-120 in the killfeed
looking forward to squadding up. weve got messerschmitts to squish
Was kinda why I was thinking getting into them with the Mossies, being twin engine they should have the similar benefit.
Yeah, lowest i’ve gone in a long time was this Hurricane, its usually 3.0 in the Venture Spit.
Highest is usually 5.7. I find 6.0+ cna have annoying uptiers.
Yeah, I tried to get into the Javelin, but just couldnt, that thing is just sad.
I should start playing more Meteors but I find that entire BR range a mess. I am looking forward to the F6 though.
Definetly.

Funnily enough the tech tree Mk.1 late has an unlockable FAA camouflage. Though objectively I feel the premium camouflage looks better
