Crews often have to operate in the field. When there’s no fully equipped hangar with tools and specialists nearby, resourcefulness and ingenuity come into play! We’re dedicating Battle Pass Season 24 to the makeshift mechanics and resourceful engineers ready for the boldest improvisations. This season’s vehicle rewards were born from improvisation: the Romanian IAR-81 fighter fitted with a Bf 109G engine, and a Somali modification of the Italian FIAT 6616 armored car, equipped with a 57 mm rocket pod!

The German Bf 109 T-2 fighter is now available in the Warbond Shop for the first time. You can also obtain a trophy containing “Road Signs” decorations and the new “Black Widow” decal in exchange for Warbonds.

What is the Battle Pass? (click to expand)

The Battle Pass is an event that lasts for 90 days where players can earn rewards for completing challenges and earning progress points. Rewards range from Silver Lions and boosters to season-exclusive decals, decorations, vehicles and more. Completing the Battle Pass is simple: you earn progress points that unlock levels, earning valuable things along the way!

Leveling up the Battle Pass & Challenges (click to expand)

Leveling up is simple! Gather progress points to unlock more levels. One level is 10 progress points. Points can be obtained through logging into the game, completing Daily Tasks and completing specific Challenges. New Battle Pass Challenges unlock once a week and another three can be obtained through reaching specific levels.

  • Login to the game! Get 1 to 5 progress points for doing this.
  • Complete Daily Tasks! Get 2 to 5 progress points for each of these.
  • Complete Battle Pass Challenges! Get 30 points for each of these.


Rewards in Season 24

Purchasing the Battle Pass for 2,000 Golden Eagles will allow you to access every level. Purchasing the improved version for 2,500 Golden Eagles comes with an extra 150 progress points (15 levels from the get go).

Not got enough time to complete the Battle Pass? You can purchase progress points for Golden Eagles 28 days after the season begins.

The Battle Pass can be accessed on the right side of the screen while in the hangar

Check out all of the rewards in the season below.

New vehicles this season

IAR-81C (DB 605) (Italy)

A Premium Fighter for Italy at Rank III

Due to supply issues with the German Jumo 211Da engines, Romania decided to test their IAR-81 fighter with a Daimler-Benz DB 605 engine, taken from the Messerschmitt Bf 109, which was an aircraft already manufactured under license in Romania. The prototype successfully completed trials in the summer of 1944 but did not enter mass production due to technical issues. In War Thunder, the IAR-81C (DB 605) is a rank III premium fighter in the Italian aviation tree. Compared to the standard IAR-81C, the DB 605-equipped model offers a noticeable boost in speed and climb rate. The aircraft can carry a pair of Wfr.Gr.21 rockets or two 50 kg bombs on its hardpoints.


FIAT 6616UB (Italy)

A Premium Light Tank for Italy at Rank IV

In the mid-2010s, a Somali field modification of the Italian FIAT 6616 armored car appeared, equipped with a 57 mm rocket pod on top. While the rocket pod has no independent aiming capabilities, it will at least follow the direction of the turret horizontally. In War Thunder, the FIAT 6616 (UB) is set to be a fast, agile wheeled scout vehicle armed with a rapid-fire 20 mm cannon, capable of unleashing a salvo of 16 rockets at the enemy in close-quarters combat!

Get Silver Lions, Consumables, Premium Account Time and More in the Battle Pass!

The Battle Pass doesn’t just feature decals, decorations and vehicles, it also contains a lot of other useful items. This includes a large amount of Silver Lions, Warbonds to spend in the Warbond shop, Orders, Wagers and Backups for use in battles, a Test Drive for one of the new vehicles before you get it, 10 days of Premium Account time, unique camouflages for the two new vehicles and a title and loading screen to remember your accomplishments.

Get the next Battle Pass for free with Upgrade Coupons!

Two “Upgrade Coupons” are at levels 105 and 125 in the Battle Pass and are both needed to get the next Battle Pass for free. They also make the two new vehicles tradable on the Gaijin Market if you prefer.

To purchase a Battle Pass using the “Upgrade Coupon”, you need to wait until the current season ends and the new season begins. You’ll then be able to exchange two Upgrade Coupons in the Battle Pass purchase window. Upgrade Coupons must be available in your inventory to do this.


The Warbond Shop in Season 24!

Check out some of the main Warbond shop items in Season 24! You can view the full list of items available as well as the conditions for receiving them in-game.

What is the Warbond Shop? (open spoiler)

The Warbond shop is connected with and runs in tandem with the Battle Pass. Items in the Warbond shop can be purchased with a currency called Warbonds that are earned in the Battle Pass. There are a total of 6 shop levels and each one can be unlocked by reaching specific levels in the Battle Pass. In addition to purchasing with Warbonds, each item from shop level 3 requires a certain number of medals to purchase. Medals can be obtained through completing Special Tasks.

The Warbond shop can be accessed by clicking on Shop > Warbond Shop from the hangar or from the Battle Pass window by clicking “Shop”

More about the new reward:

Bf 109 T-2 (Germany) — first time in the Warbond shop!

The Bf 109 T was designed for carrier-based operations, but the second version lacked the necessary equipment. Instead, it was deployed in Norway, operating from short mountain airfields. It is a typical early Bf 109, featuring a good rate of climb, two 20 mm cannons and two 7.92 mm machine guns, and the capability to carry either a single 250 kg bomb or four 50 kg bombs into combat.

Decals

Season 24 introduces the Black Widow pin-up decal. Additionally, a special trophy available in the Warbond Shop contains decals that were previously featured in 2020. Expand your collection with classic decals you might have missed!

Cool, that IAR-81C (DB 605) is a big plus from me.

Although it’s strange that new vehicle rewards are for Italy at this time, I will be getting this battle pass nonetheless.

This battlepass definitely is a bit of fresh air to me after the last few we’ve had. Kudos, and I’ll absolutely be grinding this one!

oh man, thankfully the devs would have never locked unique vehicles behind a paywall, why would they write a nice letter to us in this forum otherwise!
another IAR-81 after a paywall? Nope, I’ve been corrected, this one is free!
Only romanian TT aircraft is the S.M.79 B as far as I know.

It is unique kudos to you, I suppose air mains will enjoy the second IAR-81, specially after the previous pass had it in the warbond shop.

Spoiler

This one is pretty funny

Oh cool! A unique Romanian plane that’s now locked behind a pay wall! What happened to you guys “hating” putting unique vehicles behind a pay wall? I’m just so happy that a vehicle that I want is locked behind your dumb battle pass design that’s I don’t even know how to grind?!! Like can someone help me?!? How can I get good progress in the battle pass?!?

They don’t want to quickly run out of vehicle ideas for the future battle pass. Gotta make it somehow sustainable in the long term.

With the amount of one off prototypes they tend to put in the BP out there, they could d0 6 and still have it run for quite awhile.

I stand corrected and have edited the post.

No free rank 3 ground vehicle in shop, only ground vehicle which is rank 3 + is behind the paywall.
Was it too hard to add a rank 3 tank which doesn’t cost money? I am seeing rank 3 ships and aircrafts but no rank 3 tank? Good for aircraft and ship players i guess

Once again, since Gaijin seem to have forgotten, a reminder that it’s been almost 3 years since Britain last received a new battle pass vehicle, with the Strikemaster in October 2023

From Somaliland, I never expected my nation to be represented in-game. The Somaliland Fiat 6616 is probably the vehicle I’ve wanted to see added to the game the most as well. I would’ve personally preferred it to go to Britain given the strong historical connection between both nations (Somaliland being a protectorate of the United Kingdom for over seventy years and it being a partially English speaking nation).
