A Line of Thai Aircraft for Japan!

When did I ever say look at the Camo? I understand this issue and stated that the same aircraft in different nations means you cannot positively ID it. What are you getting at?

You didn’t!

I wrote it in support of your post.

I added it as a “and anyone who says it’s not an issue because it has different camo: just look at these.”

I should’ve been clearer, sorry. I’d thought hearting your post and adding this should be sufficient.

My apologies lol sorry. Yes seeing Camo is not possible lol.

When will the Thai ground sub-tree be added? I really do want a T-84 in game already.

Who says? Gaijin lol.

  • 2 years on from Sweden getting a Finnish air tree and not a single unique Finnish aircraft added to the TT line.

  • 10 months on from Italy getting a Hungary air tree and not a single unique Hungarian aircraft added to the TT line since.

  • 7 months on from France getting Benelux air tree and a copy paste Sea Hawk premium with no unique BeNeLux aircraft added to the TT line.

Don’t act like we have no idea what the future holds when we have a track history of Gaijin just neglecting sub trees for multiple years after the trees were low effort copy paste.

Can’t wait to play, I like Type 90 more than Type 10 lol

I’m more interested in potential helicopters to flesh out the Japanese tech tree.

The big two would be the AH-1F (which would make for a good squadron vehicle) and the AH-6. You’ve also got the option of the Eurocopter Fennec AS550 C3 combined with the AH-6 for a “light attack helicopter” branch of the japanese TT.

There’s also utility helicopters like the UH-60 but I’m not familiar with the Thai Air Force to know if they arm their utility & transport helicopters.

I do understand that notion, but I would assume that they are trying to hold out on the F-2 For as long as they possibly can as besides the F-35 (which is FAR away for obvious reasons) it is THE LAST JET Japan is going to recieve from their own nation, period.

10 hours late but the problem with a South Korean subtree is that it literally has an even more lackluster air force option to add for Japan. What Thailand has is vastly superior than what South Korea could offer in terms of aviation.

I think if for a 1 line tree, it could be enough. Early tiers you have the Haechi-Ho, SX-1, and SX-3 which all had some Japanese influence. There is the T-6D which used Japanese Type 92 bombs. The KA-1 as a mid tier attacker. The T-50 which was actually offered for Japan’s T-4 replacement program. FA-50, then F-50. F-4D with Popeyes then end with the F-15K and KF-21.

Not amazing, but it includes almost all domestic designs.

Don’t get your hopes up, they’ve done a botched job for BeNeLux subtree’s WW2 era stuff by only giving it a Fokker G.I and copy-pasta Gladiator Mk I. Heck if they’re that lazy at giving unique WW2 content, at the very least they should’ve put a copy pasta Fokker D.XXI for the BeNeLux. Oh and there’s the Hungary subtree, which purely consisted of post-WW2 content only

Why?

For a Japanese Sub…

As stated before, there are so many more appropriate and better things to add to the Japanese tree (Japanese aircraft). Copy/pasting (again) a Thai sub will not add anything to the Japanese tree, and you will do the same with a tank?

What made the game interesting was the diversity of vehicles, here there is none.
This is getting VERY boring

The South Korean tree, where is it? An autonomous tree in… 2026?
It will be too late for that…

What Japanese Aircraft are there to add at this point? F-2 will come eventually, it’s still a little bit too modern. Then it’s just F-35.

Have you even seen the Japanese air tree? The Japanese air top tier is the smallest right now. This Thai line brings some variety and the much needed CAS.

@Smin1080p_WT
Since we are getting even more JAS39C to the game, is there a plan (or even just considered) to make “Early” and “Late” (or “basic” and “modernized”, in the same way MLU is currently handled perhaps?) variants in the future?

It would flesh out the trees and give an opportunity to give the trees that need it both a lower BR variant and a higher BR variant. They don’t necessarily need to conform to the MS update standard as i understand the issue of balance as some features that came early would be way to OP at a low BR and the other way around where features that came late are already almost a standard at even lower BR and would be weird not to give the early variant. Especially as more and more mechanics are introduced to the game.

At the moment they all feel very arbitrarily chosen purely for balance so practically none of the JAS39C in the game existed in that configuration IRL (It can be compared to if the F-16 were all handled as if they were all the same F-16 and given upgrades based on balance and not block/country of operation).

Second question:
Which features will the Thai JAS39C come with in comparison to the others (and ordinance if you are allowed to tell)?

Educate me then, instead of going full salt. Because as you are behaving right now, you’re not any better than “uneducated hateful fanboys”.

Edit: Why was this flagged? I just qouted the other guy.

This “technically possible” went too far honestly. I understood when Italian F-104S got access to AIM-9J to make them somewhere competitive compared to other nations top tier in the past, but now it’s just overused to justify each “balancing” decision.

I didn’t report you. And it’s quite funny of you to talk about fragile.
