@Smin1080p_WT
Hey, is there any chance that upcoming premiums like the Dutch F-16 could still be a pre-order pack?

Hi @Smin1080p_WT!

Is there any reason for the new german Mi-24D is rank VI with 380.000 RP to obtain while the others are just rank V and only 150.000 RP? Or this is just a dev server thing?

854

Still there, (on different language version)
