Update 2.1.27 introduces a brand-new reward aircraft–the American Tier VII multirole fighter Chance-Vought XF4U-6 Corsair.
This modification is based on the regular late-model Corsair but packs even more punch! The XF4U-6, also known as XAU-1, was adapted to serve as a ground attack and close air support aircraft during the Korean War. Its four 20 mm cannons pose a serious threat to both aerial and ground targets, while a whole battery consisting of ten rockets will easily deliver a killing blow.
To earn it, you'll need to participate in an upcoming game event.
