Situated in the southernmost part of Japan, Kagoshima has historically been an important port. It earned the nickname “Naples of the East” thanks to its access to the sea, hot climate, and fantastic views of Mount Sakurajima, one of the most active volcanoes in the world. Take part in this new naval event in War Thunder and get themed decals, the IJN Shisaka and a loading screen depicting the ship against the backdrop of Mount Sakurajima!
From July 23rd (11:00 GMT) until August 6th (11:00 GMT), earn mission points in Naval Battles, unlock stages and receive rewards!
IJN Shisaka was laid down in Japan in 1944 and ended up in service with the Chinese Navy after the war and remained in service until 1990. In War Thunder, IJN Shisaka will be one of the best Coastal fleet ships — it’s a slow but well-armed frigate with three 120 mm guns and a large number of depth charges on six side mortar launchers and two stern depth charge racks. Thanks to an extensive battery of 25 mm guns, IJN Shisaka can be a great anti-air ship for your team!

How to get all rewards
Each stage can be obtained for 35,000 mission points, where every new stage obtained will give you a new reward.
Please note: After finishing a stage, you need to collect the reward manually. To do this, click on your name in-game, go to “The Naples of the East” and click the “Get Reward” button.
You’re able to earn mission points in Naval Battles at Rank III or above in Arcade and Realistic Battles. The number of mission points to complete a stage depends on the game mode and the maximum Rank of the vehicle that you use in battle. There’s a multiplier for earning mission points, which is shown in the task description in-game.
You can also earn mission points by using event vehicles that are Rank I and II. Event vehicles that can be used have the name of the event that they were obtainable in on their stat card.
Stages change every two days at 11:00 GMT on July 25th, 27th, 29th and 31st, August 2nd, August 4th

Discounts on purchasing stages using Golden Eagles
Incomplete stages can be purchased for Golden Eagles, but if you’re significantly close to completing a stage, its price will now be significantly reduced.
Let’s say you have earned 85% of the required mission points to complete a stage, then the price of purchasing this stage will be halved. If you’re near the finish line for a stage and are at 95% progress, then the price will be reduced by five times. For example, if you’ve scored 30,000 mission points, then the price for unlocking this stage will be 499 Golden Eagles. If you’ve scored 33,500 mission points, then you’ll only need to pay 199 Golden Eagles. Remember to keep this in mind if you cannot complete a stage on time!
The Upgrade for a coupon
When you complete 7 stages, you’ll receive a non-tradable coupon for IJN Shisaka, where using it will immediately activate the vehicle onto your account. If you don’t want the vehicle and would like to sell the coupon on the Market, you’ll need the “Upgrade for coupon” item.
The “Upgrade for coupon” item can be earned in parallel with the stages throughout the event from July 23rd (11:00 GMT) until August 6th (11:00 GMT) for 600,000 mission points.
After receiving the “Upgrade for coupon” item, you can convert a non-tradable coupon for the vehicle into a tradable one and sell it on the Market. The tradable coupon can be sold after 6 days from the moment it’s created.
The “Upgrade for coupon” item is valid until August 10th (11:00 GMT). Until this time, you can use it or exchange it for War Bonds. Afterwards, it’ll disappear from your inventory.
To create a tradable coupon, select the “Coupon IJN Shisaka (Japan)” in your inventory and click the “Modify” button.
You can track the progress of completing stages and receiving the “Upgrade for coupon” by clicking on your Nickname > Achievements > Naples of the East. If you don’t manage to complete a stage on time or would like to purchase a stage, until August 11th from the Achievements window, you can purchase each stage with Golden Eagles which will give you the corresponding rewards.
