I pray for my irrelevant nation to be represented in War Thunder
Here is a clear image of the Somaliland 6616 with the Soviet rocket attachment, the rockets themselves can’t pivot up or down but can be rotated alongside the turret - the vehicle if ever implemented uses the same gun as the Marder, it should and probably would get APDS.
It could either go to the UK as we were their Protectorate for quite a bit and still have good relations with them, or Italy as the vehicle originates from them
Wow!! Your suggestion thread is incredibly well made, I’m really going to enjoy reading it fully, thank you very much!!
While i’m not a fan of putting a whole continent as a tree of its own, I still definitely support the addition of said vehicles to the game. And this topic lays a great foundation for studying all of this and discussing these vehicles. Bravo!
The FIROS aint got shit with this lol, please make a suggestion!
Need!
Thanks for including my suggestions! I am 100% in favor of a tree like this, as it gets some really interesting vehicles into the game! +1
Of course there is copy-paste, it’s completely unavoidable, but I’ve tried my hardest to reduce it to a minimum (just look at the latter half of the Potential Additions section).
It also kinda depends how you classify copy-paste. Does it count all export vehicles, regardless of whether they’re already in-game or not? Because there are a lot of export vehicles but I think most aren’t in the game.
Just a quick run-through, these are the blatantly copy-paste vehicles (i.e. in game already and with very few, if any, modifications):
21 vehicles out of 76, so 27%. High, but not the highest — I believe Israel has more proportionally. ‘Most’ is certainly incorrect.
I don’t believe technicals are suitable for suggestions anyway, so I left them out.
Not really imo, especially when none of these nations individually come close to any of the countries on-game in terms of vehicle developments. It only shines when they’re all together.
Besides, there’s suggestions for a Latin American tree, which is hugely supported. I’ll admit they have many more unique vehicles, but still.
Such a sad truth but like one technical with an SPG on the back will go a long way to making this a popular TT, after all dabbing on Libyan minefields is a favorite past time for Chad lol.
Anyways really well made suggestion! A very good curation of vehicles. I hope we can get to see more African representation in the game soon, the aircraft suggestion gonna be nuts to make lol
Working on it slowly o7
At some point Gaijin is going to have to revise the tech trees on regions instead of nations because right now its a mess and getting worse with each update.
i’m dying from laugh rn XD But the tree in wt is a good suggestion
I mean, LATAM suggestion was greenlighted and received positive feedback, so this one has (even tho I dislike continent-scale TTs) a place to be.
Atp West and East European TTs look like options, even though they will be the strongest in the game with such rate (but imagine a whole European TT…)
lmao
only the south africans pulled that off
lmao
looks inside
its all soviet hand me downs with a sprinkling of hand me downs from the British and French empires
That is overkill definitely though
Care to elaborate?
I dont think i can without stirring up an off topic controversy to be honest. The idea of africa unified in any sense is just a bit amusing considering how international relations are down there
No, I mean, about you denying the comprehensive upgrades?
Because I don’t agree with the idea of a continent tree either, but nonetheless some of these modifications/locally developped vehicles are very good. The Egyptian and Algerian ones for example.
Obviously Africa isn’t united. I was just using the official African Union motto. South America isn’t united but a LatAm tree is highly popular. Taiwanese vehicles are in the Chinese tree, despite potential future ‘issues’. Etc.
Hardly. Olifant is a heavily modified Centurion, and the TTD was heavily inspired by the Leopard 2 (and only saw one prototype).
I think if you bothered to look at all the vehicles, instead of briefly skimming over the names (T-72!!! Must be a copy!!), you’d find most vehicles a) aren’t in the game, and/or b) are domestic upgrades or used only in Africa, even if developed by other countries / foreign companies.
I just noticed the mention and my suggestion in there, thank you!
Intresting idea, I like it.
Some of these vehicles definetely need to be added to their original tech tree first though, namely the BMPT, Yitian-L and FK-2000
Quite a rare vehicle, that being said luckily I do have images, albeit kind of low quality.
This version of ARMA 8x8 likely has 600 horsepower engine. As far as I can remember only ARMA 8x8 came with 720 horsepower engine was showcased during İDEF 2021. It is not amphibious with higher GVW.
This version was base for RABDAN 8x8, which has 600 horsepower engine.
SAMSON Mk.II’s armor protection starting from STANAG Level I and up to STANAG Level IV.
