    I want to finish my A-4E early research. 160K from finishing

    Fwiw, don’t forget that the Squadron vehicles do NOT get the 2.0x SL or RP boost that premium vehicles get (yes, you “can” add a talisman to a squad vehicle, but you cannot add the 2.0x SL boost that premiums get). So, just think of them as fun/special/unique tech tree vehicles and don’t stress about them. Some are absolutely worth getting, but you would be better off spending your $'s or GE’s to get a good premium vehicle that you like. Then, you will have more SL’s to buy, crew train, and expert train the squadron vehicle you wanted.
