US Airborne Day Decal Trophy Requirements
To earn the Decal Trophy for free during the event window, players need to complete a straightforward gameplay requirement. You must play 3 battles using US aircraft while achieving an activity level of 70% or higher in each match. Completing these criteria grants the trophy, which contains one of four historical airborne decals:
- 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment emblem
- 82nd Airborne Division emblem
- 101st Airborne Division emblem
- 17th Airborne Division emblem
For players who prefer an immediate unlock without fulfilling the battle requirements, individual decals are available for purchase directly in the in-game store for 509 Golden Eagles each until September 2.
UH-1C XM-30 Pack Discount
Alongside the gameplay challenges, the event features a promotional discount for collectors and aviation enthusiasts. The store includes a 30% price reduction on the UH-1C XM-30 bundle. This offer applies directly to ownership of the pack, allowing pilots to add the premium helicopter to their US tech tree setup at a reduced cost for the duration of the sale window.
