The M10 RBFM Sirocco: A Vehicle with a Proud History     

The ultimate reward of the D-Day Challenge is the fabulous M10 RBFM, a French Premium Tier V tank destroyer with a historical custom look, Sirocco. This formidable TD became the symbol of the liberation of France and all Western Europe in August 1944.

The M10 RBFM was in service with the marines of the French Army. These tank destroyers actively participated in military operations after the Allied landings in Normandy.

During the liberation of Paris, the M10 RBFM  helped destroy a German "Panther" right on the Champs-Élysées, with a precise direct shot from a 2 km distance! During World War II, a special style called "Sirocco" was applied to the M10 RBFM. This style became an integral part of its formidable image, making it instantly recognizable to enemies.

Complete every mission of the Challenge and park this legendary vehicle in your Garage for free! We recreated the M10 RBFM down to the smallest detail, so it’s fully consistent with its historical prototype. This tank destroyer is a vivid reminder of one of the most important events in world history.

Battle Parameters

The M10 RBFM boasts great view range, complemented by a good camouflage value. It’s best played at a distance, using its camo values to stay concealed behind cover. The M10 RBFM has good concealment for its Tier, so take advantage of this to get closer to enemies and pinpoint their locations. 

How the Challenge Works

To get your hands on the M10 RBFM with the unique Sirocco style, you need to complete 14 consecutive missions.

• Missions to be performed in historical vehicles*, so you can pay tribute as you complete them. Task conditions will be diverse, but in general these are simple, yet captivating.
• Missions to be performed with any Tier VII-X vehicles. These missions are a bit more challenging, but completing them won’t be too difficult.

Missions for each stage will be quite simple and doable for a wide range of players, check them out! Along with the missions you’ll find interesting facts about the Normandy Landings to help you learn more about this historical event.

Each completed stage increases the XP bonus and Crew XP bonus. All bonuses accumulated during the challenge will be valid for three days after the completion of the marathon. The bonuses will be applied to any vehicle in Random Battles and Grand Battles.

To get the M10 RBFM, you only need to complete 10 missions. However, if you want to decorate it with the unique Sirocco historical style, you'll have to complete the remaining 4 missions. This style is worth sweating over!

In addition to the main reward, you can earn additional prizes and bonuses:

• A Commemorative medal called "Ready for landing!"
• Consumables and equipment
• Personal Reserves
• XP bonuses and Crew XP bonuses.
