I think it’s more like they squeezed in another ship and a plane before this one, compared to last year (as this is the 9th single-vehicle event, when last year Alcione was the 7th) that’s why we’re running a little late compared to 2024. We should see a Big Plane event in Aug and a new bluewater in September if it follows the pattern going forward now, maybe next ground vehicle in October…(?). (Also you can see why naval they’re probably going to stick to two a year from how much they earn back from them).

They choose this over the Object 640, The Leaks were indeed true they just had to push it and replace it with copy paste
They said a month ago the next event would be a a naval one

Object 640 was leaked Two times as the Summer event vehicle
Leaked doesn’t mean it will be

The event list was leaked Two times staing Summer event and then it was pushed to Winter due to the Leak being true if it was leaked Two times on a lists from diffirent sources mean it’s true this vehilce being copy paste proves it
They said a month ago it would be a naval event, unless object 640 is magically a ship now it was never going to be the vehicle no matter how many lists it was in

Those leak lists are majority of times just made up. Remember the US amphibious thingy for winter event?

Ive seen leaks list with the fictional planes from ace combat (obviously a joke leak list but not the point here).
Just because it is on leak list does not mean it will come into the game nor it will appear when leakers say it will.
AFAIK A-6 SWIP was leaked multiple times for good year and something and it is still not in game.

It’s fictional camo. The ask was about historical camo. When was this specyfic camo on Shisaka?
Iam Truly dissapointed with this one.
The Ship itself is not bad (in my opinion, i loved the Shónan even when she got only 2 cannons) but as a event vehicle its quite lacking.
There are basically just 3 changes as far as i can see,
- Diffrent Camo
- all Tripple AA mounts got replaced with Shilded Dual mounts
- the Gun Shild on the front Cannon is diffrent
My biggest problem with it is that it dosent get Premium bonuses as its just a worse version of the TT one.
If it was Premium then it would be ok as its a solid ship for 3.3 and would help resarching everything.
Look at the message where it says NAVAL, object 640 is not a SHIP, it is a TANK

Once again, with reading compression this time, Gaijin OUTRIGHT SPECIFIED that the next event would be NAVAL

never. Seems unique to that one seaplane tender. The real thing:
Akitsushima was much larger btw, actual Shimikaze size. Shisaka and Syonan are smaller. You have to see the seaplane, the H8K onboard to really get a sense of it. Could be a fun boat in its own right some day, 2x 5 inch and a few 25mms.
