Aircraft grades

By progressing aircraft specific missions, you can earn aircraft type grades. Grades in game correspond to chevrons, with grade 5 being 1 chevron, grade 4 being 2, and so on until grade 1, which is 4 chevrons with a star above it. If an aircraft has a higher grade than another aircraft, it will be above it in the team leaderboard, even if the second aircraft had more personal points.

The segments indicate the progress towards completing a mission on a scale of 1 to 5. The total number of segments corresponds to a certain aircraft grade.

• Grade 1: 13 segments
• Grade 2: 11 segments
• Grade 3: 9 segments
• Grade 4: 7 segments
• Grade 5: 4 segments
