As the suggestion says, as a sub tree for Japan.

Now we need the ASEAN Heli sub TT suggestion

This is my biggest concern. The vast majority of information about their domestic vehicles is from secondary sources / speculation. What little figures they do give, they’re very often clearly exaggerated.
Gaijin could still add a lot of them, there’s often very clear design links to other known vehicles, and a lot of the time visual analysis is enough to get a 90%+ accurate understanding of them.
But if they do something wrong? I can certainly try and make detailed breakdowns of why something might be wrong (let’s say weight, or ATGM type, or engine model, or vehicle name) but there aren’t really any primary sources to back that up.

My guess it wont be a sub tree anymore as i think they want Thailand as the main sub for Japan…instead it might be similar to the U.K tree where we might see individual additions when needed or just to give more to the tree… this includes events as well.

To be fair Britain had India added as official subtree, even if it’s mostly premium so far. Italy had Romania too. With Japan having more space left, I think there is even more potential for techtree additions here, especially for air where they could even add another line like the Thai one.
My guess would be Indonesia, since that has been a pretty well accepted option so far, with Singapore and Malaysia probably being stuck in limbo for another while.

I will add that with the removal of the R2Y2s from their respective line, said line will only have vehicles up to rank 3 and become the shortest branch in Japan, I can only hope that in this situation gaijin sees fit to bring another subtree eventually to the line, I’d say Indonesia sounds like the perfect candidate specially considering their recent acquisitions for the future which include the Rafale F4 and F-15EX, as well as the KF-21, gaijin could also add some of their MiGs if required but I’d say they could probably steer clear of soviet aircraft and add the western ones for the most part

Apparently, we’ve reaons to assume that Thailand may got their hands on the K1A1 at some point - In fact there is an official Document with technical information for a tank designated K1A1-TH.
No details can be shared in case someone asks for it.
However, there is a chance to suggest Thai F/A-18C/D Hornets, stay tuned for more.

Very interesting vehicles alleged by the Defense Services Museum in Myanmar
Most images courtesy of tms313 on Twitter
The two M4A4 Shermans outside of the museum sport very strange mantlets, and the “gun” on the left one appears to be a fake.
A photo inside the museum shows another Sherman, with this one having what appears to be a riveted mantlet, and with a smaller cannon of possibly 37 or 47mm caliber.
Also be sure to note the hull MG on the right Sherman, resembling an upside down Type 3 HMG
We also have some interesting portees which, as evidenced by the sign, were constructed by the EME (Malaysian Corps of Royal Electrical & Mechanical Engineers) across multiple different “Eras”.
From top to bottom we have, as best as I can make out:
- Nissan Patrol 160 series with 125hp P40 engine, mounting what I assume is a ZPU-2.
- Dodge M37 with a “76mm mountain gun”, which seems to be this piece that I cannot ID.
- Just your typical M40A1 recoilless rifle (possibly of Spanish or Pakistani construction according to Wikipedia) mounted in the rear of what I’m guessing is an M38A1 MD jeep.
- T16 carrier with 20mm Hispano, also found within the museum.
Better photos of these models and their respective plaques would be much appreciated.
And here, the vehicle that suprised me the most:

This is an improvised anti-air tank based upon the Comet, with what I think could be a 37mm Chinese Type 74 twin mount or perhaps just the standard Soviet 61-K. Again, further information would be very useful.
I’m not even sure if these are all the SPG models the museum has, so I might do some more research later since there’s bound to be more photos from tourists.

That 76mm gun on the Dodge M37 looks like a Yugoslav 76mm M48 mountain gun

I’ve been looking at a whole heap of old Indonesian Archive images from this Facebook Page: Priyono Bitles Combat | Facebook. There are some interesting images of Indonesian vehicles (some I didn’t even know we used) as well as other interesting & rare images of historical events and the like (ships, aircrafts, infantry, etc.). I’d suggest taking a look if you’re interested in that sort of stuff
What i found from there was that for the new light tank procurement program in around 1983, two wildly different designs was tested, but ultimately went with the marked-up Alvis Scorpions due to “reasons”.
Vehicles Tested
The first is the Wiesel which we already know was tested with the .50 cal turret, but apparently it was also tested the 20mm variant as well
Wiesel
The second design we tested was the Austrian SK-105 Kürassier, honestly I have no clue about the variant differences, but since they’re firing at night I would assume it has thermals or NVD
Although we didnt buy either of them, the SK105 turret was eventually used in the amx 13 retrofit (yonkav 2)
with that out of the way here are some additional rare images of tanks/vehicles we used

With the appearance of multi vehicle SPAA, we could expand the tree to include the SPYDER MR from the Philippines and/or the MBDA SAMP/T from Singapore. Although I wonder, does anyone know any updates on Indonesia acquiring their own version of the HISAR-O?
Edit:
Missed another part of the update that adds the SPYDER AIO, now it would be even more easier for Gaijin to add the SR and MR versions!

They were ordered on 2022 but no recent news, supposed to be the Trisula-O (Medium-Range) & Trisula-U (Long-Range) as well as the SİPER
it would be similar to this
but with the Czech Tatra truck (currently unknown which version, could be this)
plus technically it wont be the multivehicle system we can add since we have NASAMS, Rapier, Skyshield,
GROM Poprad w/ Cobra ADS, etc

NASAMS, Skyshield, and Rapier (I suppose Rapier could be considered but wouldnt really be a match for the SPYDER systems) technically arent vehicle mounted and would be stretching the definition of vehicle based combat of WT. Also dunno how would the entire Grom Poprad Aster system would be employed, like there would be technically 2 different weapons configured to a search radar. Now if only the Badak Skyshield was real tho

its how its currently implemented though, with one radar-less vehicle as the weapon system and another as the radar (except at a lower BR obviously)
