Vehicle Blueprints

Vehicle blueprints are special items that provide a discount to the research cost of Tier II–X vehicles research.

Each blueprint consists of fragments that can be received in the following ways:

By completing Daily Missions
By completing special missions of Prime Gaming Kits
By completing Stages in Battle Pass
By taking part in various in-game events

Each blueprint fragment provides a certain percentage discount to research, and with a fully assembled blueprint you can research the vehicle without spending any experience at all.

The discount is applied to the research cost of the vehicle, but not its modules. In order to research a vehicle with the discount, you should have all previous vehicles and necessary modules in the branch researched.

All actions with blueprints are available in the TECH TREE tab below the Battle! button in your Garage. To switch to the Blueprints mode, click in the upper-left part of the Tech Tree screen.

Blueprint Fragment Types

There are three types of blueprint fragment in the game:

Duplicates of already assembled vehicle blueprints automatically turn into national or universal fragments. You cannot turn a non-duplicate vehicle fragment into a national or universal fragment manually.

National and universal fragments will not provide discounts until they are converted to a particular vehicle blueprint fragment.

To do this, you will need a certain number of fragments of each type:

Tier II–IV: 1 national + 4 universal
Tier V–VI: 2 national + 6 universal
Tier VII: 3 national + 8 universal
Tier VIII: 3 national + 10 universal
Tier IX: 3 national + 12 universal
Tier X: 4 national + 12 universal
