This was one of the most fun rank II premiums to play in the British tech tree in 2016! Good to know you’ll play it now as well.

I remember times when you could get low tier tech for completing some simple tasks, good old War Thunder.
Anyway even temporarily available premiums is a good feature, would be nice to get more of them for different nations, especially vehicles which barely have any differences, but unique for this tech tree, so they aren’t overfilled with copypaste, but people who want it can get it.
