Pilots,

Two days of conflict, on 24 and 25 August 1942, mark the naval Battle of the Eastern Solomons. It was the second major engagement between the US Navy and the Imperial Japanese Navy, during the well-known Guadalcanal Campaign. Throughout the course of this battle, the ships of both navies were never in the line of sight of each other, thus all attacks were executed by carrier and land-based aircraft. To commemorate this historical event we have prepared some great discounts and dedicated in-game missions for you to enjoy. Check out all the details below!
