The Explosive Watermelon!

One of the best fruits you can eat on a hot summer August day is a big, cold, juicy, sweet watermelon. It’s full of flavor! In War Thunder, the Explosive Watermelon is filled with rewards and you can buy it for Silver Lions!

The “Explosive Watermelon” can be purchased from the in-game Item Shop for Silver Lions from August 7th (11:00 GMT) until September 3rd (11:00 GMT). It doesn’t require a key and can only be purchased by players who have bought at least one researchable vehicle at Rank II or higher on their account.

What’s in the Explosive Watermelon?

The “Explosive Watermelon” contains vehicles and camouflages, decals and decorations, player icons from previous summer events and events from the new cycle from June to August inclusive, as well as useful consumable items: boosters, universal backups, wagers and orders. Some items from past events are appearing as coupons for the first time, and you’ll be able to trade them on the Market!

The Explosive Watermelon costs 60,000 Silver Lions.
