T-72B3 “Arena”

An Event Vehicle MBT for the USSR at Rank VII

One of the areas of further modernization for the T-72B3 tank was equipping it with modern active protection systems. A variant of the tank equipped with an Arena family active protection system was demonstrated at the RAE-2013 exhibition in Nizhny Tagil. This system complements the T-72B3’s already good level of protection. The Arena is capable of engaging incoming guided missiles on approach, destroying them with a fragmentation field several meters from the T-72B3’s armor. This modification is equipped with a ChTZ V-84-1 diesel engine and Kontakt-5 ERA.

Discounts for purchasing stages using Golden Eagles

Unfinished stages can be purchased for Golden Eagles, but if you’re very close to completing a stage, its price will 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 39,000 mission points, then the price to unlock this stage will be 499 Golden Eagles. If you’ve scored 43,000 mission points, then you’ll only need 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 8 stages, you’ll receive a non-tradable coupon for the T-72B3 “Arena”, 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 January 22nd (11:00 GMT) until February 9th (11:00 GMT) for 750,000 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.

To make a tradable coupon, select the “Coupon T-72B3 “Arena” (USSR)” in your inventory and click the “Modify” button.

The “Upgrade for coupon” item is valid until 11:00 GMT on February 13th. Until this time, you can use it or exchange it for War Bonds. Afterwards, it’ll disappear from your inventory.


Tracking your progress

You can track the progress of completing stages and the “Upgrade for coupon” item by clicking on your Nickname > Achievements > Paintball Arena. If you don’t manage to complete a stage on time or would like to purchase a stage, you can do so with Golden Eagles until February 13th from the Achievements window, which will give you the corresponding rewards.

Ohh joy, I just had to open the news at the right moment… yay a new T-72 an a B3 model at that, perfect I’ll get back into GF with this.

Hmm Arena, isn’t that a soviet/russian Active Protection System or am I thinking of another thing, or is this just a T-72B3 clone an Arena is just the event version?

Like don’t we already have this?

Not bad

Yes, but worse. No side relikt, 840hp engine. Soo… T-72B (1989) but with better fcs, aps and a better round. I wonder where this will land.

The T-72B3A we already have is the Arena APS mounted on the T-72B3M / T-72B3 obr. 2016, with upgraded engine and armour, which is a modification on the T-72B3.

This is an earlier T-72B3 (the stock T-72B3 in-game) fitted with Arena back in 2013

As if to rub everyone up the wrong way after having the Terminator demolish matchmaking… let’s add another Russian MBT as an event vehicle!

I mean, off the top of my head Arena is your average APS, alright for taking care of ATGMs, but still, this feels a bit daft.

Also also, we’ve just had two russian event vehicles for chrizzle. Why are we getting another?
