The Lewis machine gun did not easily gain worldwide recognition - manufacturers in the USA were not interested in it at first, but in Europe Belgian businessmen took notice of the design and as a result, the production of the weapon was organized in England. Subsequently, the widespread use of the Lewis machine gun by the Entente powers in aviation and infantry made it one of the symbols of trench warfare and the entire First World War. From October 15th (13:00 UTC) to October 18th (13:00 UTC), a unique premium squad with the Lewis gun for the USSR will temporarily return to the shop for Gold!

By the end of World War I, over 10,000 of these machine guns had been purchased - which was a substantial number for this weapon type. A significant portion of them survived the Russian Civil War, making the USSR one of the primary users of the Lewis gun during World War II. In the early stages of the war, these guns were used by the People's Militia, but they also often found their way into the hands of regular troops. In Enlisted, players can command a squad of Soviet marines wearing distinctive black overcoats and armed with Lewis guns. The engineer of the squad not only wields a machine gun, but also has access to a wide range of buildable structures, including anti-aircraft, anti-tank and heavy machine guns!
