Ah-64E for Germany

Machinery of War Discussion
70

Unfortunately Switzerland does not operate any attack helicopters so Germany’s heli tree can’t benefit from that subnation. And the only other european nation operating a LDIRCM helicopter netherlands already went to france. Germany has to wait for a new attack helicopter to be chosen by Germany. It seems that it could take years for Germany to choose a new attack helicopter as they ordered a bunch of H145M as a stop gap.

The only nations left to be added to war thunder with AH-64E are Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, South Korea, Taiwan, Egypt, Morroco and I don’t see any way Mi28MN and Z-10ME can come to Germany.

Since its main weapons are 8 Spikes at best, it would be around 12.3-12.7 with thr current compression) aka, sidegrade to the Tiger but with MUCH better Sensors xD
Let alone the Zoom)))

Gib LFK NG for KHT )))))

@Smin1080p_WT When will LDIRCM be fixed?
will it take long?

What about the Chieftan 900 getting its composite armor, as it was a prototype and planned/intended to recieve composite

Also what about the MiG-29 Sniper recieving the EL/M-2032, Derbys and other Western armament as it was a prototype and was planned/intented???

75

Sadly there was not enough evidence to support this. Unlike Yak-141.

well at least it feels like the spanish had block 2 is still on the table.

As much as you have denied other options (rightfully so)
The possibility of the spanish tiger had block 2 was never denied yet.
Germany being part of the project and being one of the main developers could be enough ground

Does that mean the rah-66 can get its full stinger loadout (shown in picture)

And the AN/ALQ‑144 IR jammer and the M130 countermeasure dispensers as they were planned to be added if it did go into service?

Hi Smin,
It seems that a newer public report from EDR Magazine (ILA 2026, June) states that the German H145M will be equipped with lightweight DIRCM, providing 360° coverage.

Its a Leopard and has no other relevant tree in game currently to go too.

Poland is not a German sub tree. There are 3 Polish operated vehicles in game. 2 of them are not in the German tree: Poland | Operator | War Thunder Wiki
