You can find the full details for Operation: Steel wall here.

You might want to actually own a Russian tank before you say that.

And American tanks are most likely to get them IMO. Even some of the American mediums have some troll worthy turrets that can bounce anything of it's tier and above.

The only Nation I'm not positive is able to reliably get the medal are the French. I never played them enough on the other server to know how good they are for this but I never bounce vs these tanks.   :Smile_Default:

7000 credits. The last bonus they gave out gave Exp and while I got the bonus it never actually showed up as a bonus for me, simply had the extra exp equal to the amount the medal gave.

So you get an extra 7000 credits but likely didn't notice it right away if you did really well already.

I have done it like 3 times since it started and didn't notice I was getting a bonus because I did it in my KV-5 and was getting over 100k anyway. lol
