World of Warplanes: Update 2.1.20

Pilots!

New Aircraft

Update 2.1.20 introduces a brand-new reward aircraft:

•  Curtiss P-40N Kittyhawk

This warplane is inspired by the venerable First American Volunteer Group, widely known as Flying Tigers. It retains the great maneuverability in turns, which is characteristic to the whole P-40 family, but is augmented with a pair of wing-mounted 250 lb bombs. This makes it excellent for a wide variety of roles, both as a great dogfighter and a point-strike aircraft for ground assaults.

To earn it, you’ll need to participate in the upcoming game event.

New Achievements

Added the Dragon Tamer achievement that can be earned in the upcoming game event.

New Emblem

Added a new emblem dedicated to the U.K. Royal Air Force.
