Atlas Cheetah E

everything should be in German cuz German

So is the Kfrir, what’s your poinit. People already had this argument, South African vehicles should not be in the French, since the nation itself is French Ally or have any common relations the to the French, the Nesher is based of the Mirage 5, why isn’t it in the French tree ?

The Cheetah series is based of both the Kfrir and Mirages, having more relations to Israel than it does to the French.

Your error of thinking, is MoDiFiCaTiOn Of A fReNcH aIrFrAme, doesn’t mean it should be in French tree.

There is a lot French vehicles that can be added and the Cheetah is not one of them.

You missed the point.

It should be placed in the British Tech Tree just as other South African vehicles are in the Ground Forces Tech Tree. The Atlas Cheetah should definitely get added ingame in Britain.

+1.

This shouldn’t be an argument and is straight forward

This is a South African vehicle and should go to the South African Sub-TT. It’s like saying all American leased vehicles by the Soviet Union should be in the American TT (which it’s not).

Besides that it’s a +1 for me (UK TT addition)

New news about sub-tree tech because of the debate if I feel like it needs posting here:

M8 just give it up it’s going into the British now weather you like or not SA is a sub tree of Britain so any further SA vehicles will go in there.

Giving up what exactly?
I don’t really care regarding the placement of Cheetah as long as it comes to the game as I mentioned before.

Very good of you to link that post. It certainly is a deviations from earlier ones.
Some vehicles might end up in very strange situations of course.

I understand connecting it to Israel and France by it’s historical relevance but if it’s South African it should be in the British TT. Especially considering the AML-90 is already there so French vehicles in the British TT via the SA subtree is already a thing. As for whether it could go to Israel it could serve as a premium or higher tier squadron vehicle as an additional option to the British TT.

For an addition into the Isreali tree I’d recommend Chile’s similar ENAER Pantera (Mirage 50’s modernized for Chile by IAI), or the actual Cheetah E’s they purchased - as spare parts sources however, not as service aircraft

ENAER Pantera

+1 not sure about placement but either way great suggestion

I think that Great Britain should keep everything related to South Africa since they already have a sub tree within the game. If Israel wants a plane with similar characteristics, they have the Mirage 50CN Pantera from Chile, which has a better engine and more weapons (Python 3, LGB Griffin) than the Atlas Cheetah. And in the same way it was modified between Chile and Israel.

It’s easy,

Q. Could you clarify if it’s possible we will see South African Aircraft in the British tree too now that they have ground forces within their tree? Currently there is only the Rhodesian Hunter as a premium aircraft.

  • The British aircraft research tree is already quite representative (five lines as opposed to four in ground vehicles tree before South Africa was introduced). South African aircraft may be added in another capacity - as a premium or event and squadron vehicles.

It is not a South African vehicle, it is french-israelian.

Since it is operated by South Africa, belongs to UK TT.

Pantera could easily be in the French tech tree as well. Further Kfir variants easily are enough for the Israeli tech tree.

With the South African Gripen C confirmed for the UK tree, it is to be expected that the Cheetah would be added to the same tree. Hope it gets passed to the devs soon!

Would still love to see a Air sub tree with mirage CZ mirage F1AZ and Cheetah in Brittish Tech Tree :) think it would complement the Brits in that BRs :)

I agree, Britain has no dedicated fighters between 9.7 and 11.3 and the Hunter F.6 and FG Phantoms both have huge weaknesses, so particularly the Cheetah’s could provide a much needed alternative to the current options.

As for the argument that the UK tree is too big, lots of it is minor upgrades and could be foldered to become 4 lines plus a South African line, or they could simply add those vehicles in where they would be convenient such as having the Cheetah’s foldered with one another before the FGR.2 and if we were to get an Mirage F1, then that could go after the Buccaneer nicely as a strike platform.

Currently there are South African and Australian aircraft embedded into the British tree, rather than a dedicated sub-tree. I see no reason to change this method.
