[Event] Floats!

Good luck having fun in WT. Good for you.

You need the bombs to sink the warships guarding the cap points.

As one of player who joined in 2015, I really missed that event.

It would be awesome if we gets Korean War event and intercepting V-1 buzz bomb event, Intercepting B-17s with Me 262 event again.

I see N1K was removed, was there any other changes made to the event or just that?

Finally… that thing was just broken

It’s too bad that other nations didn’t make good floatplanes.

Y’all cringe, hail to the master Japanese floatplanes

If WW2 had not happened, Japanese floatplane could have been a good product as a transport aircraft in the islands

I would like to see Japanese floatplanes such as the E16A, which can be said to be the perfection of the two-seat reconnaissance floatplane, and the M6A1, which can be operated on submarines, implemented, as many of them are not yet implemented.

I know the event will end on Monday so it won’t happen this time but as a bit of feedback for next time this rolls around, let us use the normally inaccessible naval floatplanes for this event.


That’s 10 or so floatplanes that are normally unplayable unless you unlock the ship it’s on and then unlock the floatplane mod.

More variety, more chaos, more fun and then everyone gets to experience the superiority of the Walrus.

They really need to make these unlockable in the normal Air tree (probably in the same way the Kingfishers are). :(

A couple of them with like a single 7.62 and no bombs I get but others like the Walrus or the goofy French RV with wings confuse me because lack of cockpit aside they are fully modeled and detailed and I’m pretty sure would be superior to the kingfisher in every way.
Gaijin put a decent amount of money into them all, even the ones that only are mounted on one or two ships when they could have just substituted a different one.

And they languish in obscurity.

My squadron leader, Bo Time put a video on the event where they joked about the Walrus being added because he, among many others have no idea they exist in-game, locked behind cruisers.

CANT Z506B

CANT Z.508, the swift giant.

CANT Z515

CANT Z.516, the CANT Z.1007 but for the sea

Savoia Marchetti S.M. 55 M. Serie 25

Macchi M.C.99, the italian PBY Catalina at 90%.

Caproni Ca124

Macchi M. 41 bis.

CANT 25

Maybe even this thing:
CANT Z511 Idrogigante

I unironically love this event. I’m spading planes I never thought I would! I’d like to see more events that force the use of under used or weird vehicles.

We can’t even play the Ro.44 (the one launchable from some ships).

Ro.43 yes, Ro.44 is the one in the aviation TT.

I confused the two planes my bad.
