WoT CN: New Hangar For The Dragon Boat Race Event
The hangar is dedicated to the celebration of the “Dragon Boat Festival”. In 2022 it will be celebrated on June 3rd.
Looks interesting, but we won’t have it.
This event will take place in 
China, and this hangar was made for it. In the form of rewards, they will have new customization and it seems, in-game loot boxes.
Event name: Dragon boat festival CN. / h36_dragon_boat_2022
The hangar is new, but it uses elements from previous Chinese hangars.
Duan-wu or Duanwu (Chinese 端午), also called “double five”, as it falls on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar, is a Chinese traditional holiday of the calendar cycle that falls at the beginning of summer. Its name is usually translated as a festival of dragon boats, according to the most common ritual and entertainment event on this day – a rowing competition in boats depicting dragons. On this day, it is customary to eat zongzi.
Duan-wu has its parallels in the cultures of other Asian countries: Kodomo no hi, originally, in exact accordance with the lunar calendar – Tango no sekku (Jap. 端午の節句), – in Japan, Dano (Dano, Surit-nal) – in Korea, Doanngo (Tết Đoan Ngọ) – in Vietnam.

Good one-time damage, outstanding frontal armor and decent mobility – all these are the parameters of a really comfortable tank that makes you want to go into battle again and again. The accuracy and visibility indicators of the car are quite modest, and dictate the game at the forefront.

Created in February 1944 on the basis of the T-44 tank. It differed from the base tank in the shape of the hull and turret, engine, armor and armament. The installation of a powerful 122-mm D-25-44T gun caused a number of disadvantages, such as a reduction in ammunition, the difficulty of loading when using a unitary shot. The use of separate loading shots was considered inappropriate due to the low rate of fire, and the tank was rearmed with an 85 mm gun.
Crew 4 people:
Commander (radio operator);
Gunner;
Driver;
Loader.
Role in battle: Versatile Medium tank
Special category Equipment: Mobility.
