Australian vehicles

With India now in the British Tree because its “commonwealth” I wonder if the Australian Abrams in the US tree is getting moved to us/duplicate added?

Yeah…

It’s is pretty funny that British mains are complains about non British vehicles not being in the British tech tree, out of all the reasons to say that gaijin hates Britain this has to easily be the worst

Would you like an example of correct vehicle placement by country of use?
German G.91, an Italian aircraft used by Germany, it’s in the German tech tree not the Italian tech tree, the M1A1 AIM is used by Australia, part of the COMMONWEALTH. The Commonwealth is led by Great Britain, so it should go under Great Britain.

If you are going to make that argument, the CAC Wirraway, an Australian North American NA-16 is in the British tech tree, and the CAC Boomerang, a development of that is in the British tech tree. By your argument the F-4J (UK) should be in the American tech tree because it is an American plane, along with every other American plane in game.

Its just the hypocrisy. We get a Indian vehicle that doesnt even remotely fit into the rest of the tree, in either aesthetics, purpose, playstyle or BR but an Abrams that would, is given to US (which is the only other place it could go)

Does Australia and other nations like Canada, need to be better represented yes. But their vehicles would actually fit better in the British tree than India’s Soviet stuff. if we have to get Commonwealth nation stuff, lets at least get the Commonwealth stuff that fits into the tree. Do I want an Abrams in the British TT (A little) but mostly no, not at the moment.

Gaijin is an Hungarian company, Hungary is a western nation. A-5C is a Chinese export jet.

Eh… that is questionable. Their HQ moved to Hungary from Moscow about 2015 I think. (but I dont think they transfered fully till much later, 2021-2022, at least I recall seeing their google page displaying a Moscow HQ until about then) But most of their devs are still located in and around Moscow and the company was founded by Russians and was a “Russian Company” for about 15 years before that. Moving HQs doesnt mean they arent still Russian. Apple has a HQ in Ireland, doesnt make them an Irish company

Gaijin Entertainment is a Russian video game developer and publisher headquartered in Budapest.”

Yep, the wiki page, where google would have pulled info from when googled wasnt updated till March 2021

Doesnt prove they didnt move earlier, I know, but will explain why I thought their move was much later or that their move wasnt fully completed

Last time I checked the commonwealth isn’t a nation, nor is it even a proper military alliance.

I guess I should clarify that a nation’s vehicle would be something they directly used or made.

If there’s an indigenous vehicle from a commonwealth nation then it might deserve its place in the British tech tree, other than that if that vehicle originated from a nation that’s already Inc. game, it has no place in the British tech tree as it has nothing to do with Britain.

Really neither of them should be in the British tech tree, the challengers are underperforming and should have been buffed years ago and there are other British vehicles that could have been added.

The commonwealth is a great way to get vehicles that aren’t from in game nations into the game, like the LAV especially since Britain is lacking when it comes to ifvs

But it seems like they’re gonna add the t90M soon so maybe it was just easier for them to make that model either way, bad practice

I agree. Completely, I was thinking something like the Scorpion 90. A few commonwealth nations used it. Would have been perfect for a SQV and the standard Scorpion could have come to the TT. Everyone is happy.

Association of states/nation, in War Thunder it is similar to an alliance, as Australian, Canadian, NZ, SA, and India are all represented in the British tree, so either move all Commonwealth nation’s vehicles into the British tree, or separate them, maybe into 1 tree.

So what you’re saying is that the the Grant I in the British premium tree should be in the American tech tree, same as the Mustang I? Even though these vehicles were NOT used by the US, same as the Grant in the American premium tree and the Mustang I in the American tt, those last two vehicles should BOTH be in the British tt.

Looks like you’re just an American main crying because we should have some of your vehicles.

Britain has nothing to do with the AIM. It belongs in the US tree.

Australia is in the commonwealth so it should be.

Australian domestic vehicles can go to the British tree but the M1A1 AIM is not an Australian domestic vehicle. The US tree has been watered down enough. It doesn’t need to be watered down more because other trees don’t build competitive vehicles.

Britain builds competent vehicles, gaijin just hates us

Chally 2 is superior to Abrams in many respects. They just couldnt be bothered to finish it in game.
