British definitely the best place for MY and SG, but the problem is just did UK TT got that much of slot to add those vehicle. UK, AUS, NZ, MY & SG are the Five Power Defence Arrangement (FPDA) member and the main role of this group is to counter the enemy from north (I think we no need to be that specific, we all knew who we talking about)
And some picture from Bersama Lima Exercise few day ago:
Also some interesting photo: HMS Prince of Wales paying tribute to HMS Prince of Wales and accompanies by Japan
I think India should be a tech tree on its own but yeah, the current implementation of the UK TT is just all over the place. A subtree rework would give MY and SG a comfortable seat with the FPDA in the UK TT.
Personally speaking, current UK TT development making MY & SG can only be added to Japan TT and formed somekind of SEATO alliance including Japan + 5 ASEAN founder + ANZAC. It doesn’t need to add all vehicle at the same time but what it make is giving enough vehicle to Japan to added in the future, but I think there definitely some players from certain country calling this Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere (GEACPS) TT🤣
I think this is a misrepresentation. Nothing much to offer top tier but Myanmar has a defense manufacturing industry. EE-9 Cascavels and BTR-4 are some interesting additions Myanmar could offer, which I think is pretty good enough considering that the China TT does still have a lot more domestic options that it could add.
Personally I don’t think the actual content is an issue, just that Singaporean players don’t want it. It’s like SK to Japan, where it’s just the most controversial option to solve a problem that has a better solution (in China’s case that is fixing domestic content).
For western vehicles in China though I really don’t mind. I’m honestly pretty excited to see if the rumored ROC rafale deal goes through because I think that could be an interesting addition.
Yeah, probably not the most enticing examples, but there is interesting subtree content.
For example I’m really interested in the later Pakistani T-80UD variants and maybe even the Oplot-P.
I do think China can and probably should have a stronger domestic focus for now, but there is still interesting options here.
OMG I’m sorry I really don’t think before speaking and it’s always you catching strays. I’m sorry I feel so bad now. 😭😭
Let me rephrase, if one has support for this idea, which is fine… I don’t think at all Singapore would be excessive for China (in regards of content).
And this is another issue. I personally know one who is a little obsessed with Taiwan, so he wants it to happen. But again, it’s one.
For those I am too, but one must still remember to ask before suggesting a sub-tree: Does it deserve a full line? Because (speaking for aviation) I would really, really rather have a 5th Chinese l before any of those suggested nations…
Even though I’d like to see more ASEAN tech introduced to the game, notably to have at least something to go for in JP tt (before sub-trees it was on life support, almost in coma I’d say), I think some of that “Eastern” tech should not really be researchable material.
Ik that something like Su-30/MiG-29 have different (western) systems included, but I believe they shall be more of event/permium material, unless the modification/modernisation was deep enough to define it as almost a domestic design.
True to most extent, but it also depends on what is offered for said planes.
If somehow Su-30 gets into the game [sub-tree], devs can pull out the “systems for such weaponry available but was not purchased/fielded? give them weapons” type crap like they did with Swiss aviation sub-tree, and having a yet another Kh-38MT slinger is… meh, to say the least.
Edit: also, I didn’t say the tech should be “left out” because it is of Eastern or Western origin. What I meant was whether changes done to aircrafts, say, of Eastern tech by including Western tech actually changes playstyle. Again, speaking of Su-30, if Kh-38s are given to it, there would be no reason for GBUs that were the defining thing of the aircraft in Malaysian service specifically.
If no difference is made, then it shall rather become premium/event/squadron than regular researchable one.
Call me crazy but I wouldn’t mind it getting passed around a little (not being RU exclusive), the 38. Japan, UK and China all have (Japan being potential just yet) aircraft that are ‘compatible’. Su-30MKM, 30MKI, and 35.
But of course. It’s fine and probably better if they do not.
I simply did not mention everything under the sun there is for Myanmar, was a wall text I didn’t want to bother at that time of day where I was, so I simply mentioned what I would like to see Myanmar offer the Chinese tree the most, their latest MiG-29, simple as, of course they have more to give
And what’s wrong with a MiG-29 and older T series tanks? It’s fair if you don’t want that but it would be cool to see those and whatever gap Myanmar could gap fill or even add in my opinion, specially the MiG-29SM as we lack different variants of that jet even in the Russian tree itself, the 29SM is pretty much the SMT but without the massive tank that makes it heavy and sluggish. But again it’s just my opinion. To me I also don’t mind western vehicles in China but Singapore would be excessive, it’s also controversial for Singaporeans as they don’t really seem keen to have their nation in China, a few months ago there was backlash over that “leaked” Singaporean Leopard 2A4 to China, and the reception about Indonesia to China as well was really negative and now we’re seeing the Indonesian Mi-35P in Japan instead.
Su-30SME isn’t that much different from the 30SM either so both are in the same basket, I said so myself that the 29SM is just like the SMT but without the massive dorsal fuel tank that makes it heavy and sluggish ingame, so it would be a lighter modern MiG-29, the Fulcrums seem to be forgotten by gaijin in general, we lack so many variants at the moment, the S/SM, the 29M, the 29K and such, they’re giving all attention to Flankers. Sure China has the F-16A MLU and JF-17 for squadron jet at 13.3 but a 29SM from Myanmar in the tree as an option could be cool
Honestly we’ll probably see the AGM-84E SLAM missile eventually as a potential equivalent for western jets and the few Flankers with western components that are compatible with it, I think the MKM is? Not sure I’ll have to look into it
Hey it’s by being abysmal that it stays at the lower BR it is, and the J-10A has almost a straight up copy of that radar, thank God the J-10B/C change that, but yeah the 29M in Russia would be 1 of the few jets I actually want and would fly in that tree. I’ll be honest I really don’t enjoy playing Russia much, so a modernized Fulcrum in China through Myanmar would be really peak for me at least and although it wouldn’t be drastically different than the SMT it would still be a bit better lol
