We definitely need more Indian vehicles in the british tree (at least in the air tree, I don’t know about the rest since I only play air).
Imo, we shouldn’t get more Soviet/Russian vehicles, since I don’t think they fit with the british tree. However, what we do need is indigenous Indian vehicles. Here are some I’d like added:
-
HAL Ajeet: A lightweight, very agile gunfighter developed from the Folland Gnat by HAL. Would probably be in the 1st line at Rank 6, with a BR something like 9.x, foldered with the Gnat (which has to be added too since it’s literally British).
-
HAL HF-24 Marut: Originally designed as a supersonic interceptor, it was never fitted with proper engines. Because of this, it never managed to break the sound barrier and ended up being used as a strike aircraft. Would definitely sit at Rank 7, 4th line with a BR like 10.x.
-
HAL Tejas: The most modern Indian fighter in service, it’s a very unique aircraft due to its very small size (13m long by 8m large) and its extremely diverse armament (it can carry European, Israeli and Russian ordnance). Would sit at Rank 8, probably in line 1 between the Gripen and the Typhoon, with the Mk1 at perhaps a 13.x BR and the Mk1A foldered with it at a 13.(x+1) BR.
-
Mirage 2000H or 2000I: Export variants of the Mirage 2000 for India (similar to the 2000C and 2000-5 respectively). These are unique mainly because they were fitted to carry R-73 missiles. Would be a nice premium for Rank 8, with a BR of 13.x I guess.
No, search for “call of Mahabharata” on the WarThunder forums search bar. India should be its own tech tree
Actually quite opposite. We do not need any indian vehicles in brit TT

maybe not in the ground tree but the air tree can definitely receive some
the main problem is, right now a great part of vehicles added are soviet origin, which doesn’t fit the british tree. But some others vehicles would fit way better

First off, what is lacking in the tree? And secondly, saying Indian aircrafts are all russian copypaste shows that you don’t know much about them. The Tejas is a completely indigenous Indian aircraft that has nothing to do with Russians. The Marut is also very unique, and would go in a spot of the tree that isn’t very loaded. And the Ajeet would be foldered with the Gnat which is a British aircraft. I don’t see where the Russian copypaste is here
Anyway, there is a ton of room in the British tree for unique Indian aircrafts without taking the spot from British vehicles
What vehicles are lacking in waht context?
for tanks, in the cold war era alone theres a plethora of chieftains and centurions missing.
Most the CRVT family of light tanks.
Spaas that are only now just being added and even then its worse than the strela and osa which are at the same BR.
For air?
Were missing again a plethora of jets from the early cold war and pre tornado era, were missing a good few harriers, missing a good few of the variations of modern jets as well not talking about the typhoon.
Im not saying all the indian equipment is russian copy and paste at all.
the whole point in that saying “Indian” in quotes was to remark on the fact weve yet to see an actual indigenious indian vehicle, the Arjun for example would of been a far nicer addition than that ridiculous T90, which while has slightly different model and dozer blade is functionally the same thing.
You don’t see the high BR squadron vehicle for Britain is a T90 ?
The high tier premium for Britain is a modified Mig21?
Or the best SPAAs being russian copy and pasted under the guise of Indian stuff?
India on its own could facilitate a tree such as Isreals, without needing to ram it into britain so ham handedly.
You also forget this is Gaijin doing this, Britain already has a subtree in south africa, as well as that, lets look at the most recent sub trees added, they were nothing but literal copy and paste.
Benelux?
Hungry?
Finland (more reasonable but still)
Britain does not need India put into it while most of the stuff it has is either incorrectly modelled or just not implemented correctly, as well as missing most of our early cold war and late coldwar gear.
So to answer this question mate, an absolutely metric ton of stuff.
EDIT: Just checked your accoutn, what are you even concerned about britain for? you’re a level 14 whos played only france and sweden what would you know about what britain has and doesnt have? xD

I completely agree with that, I never said I agreed with what Gaijin picked for Indian equipment
Again, I completely agree that they’re doing it the wrong way
I also think India belongs with Israel better than UK both technologically and diplomatically, but Gaijin decided to stick India with UK so here we are.
That’s a real problem indeed, but another. The fact we need this fixed doesn’t invalidate the idea of other stuff
I will grind UK in the future, simply when I do I’d like the Indian stuff to be there since Gaijin won’t add it anywhere else
In conclusion, I share your view on 90% of it, simply I think it’s a bummer that at the end of the day UK gets russian copypaste instead of actual Indian tech.
But India 100% fits better Israel, both because they have more to do with each other and because Israel needs a subtree more than any other nation. I even made a photoshop of the Israel tree with an Indian tech tree
They shouldn’t have just arbitrarily done it at all, I don’t believe India should go to isreal, however get its own minor nation tree.
It does completely invalidate it when theres stuff thats been in the game for years and is being ignored to churn out “indian” stuff that is simply copy and paste.
As well as that I believe Indian tech realistically has no place within the UK, just as it would be absurd to see random UK stuff planted in an Indian tree, it buggers me off too much tbh.
They never said they wont add it elsewhere, they just claimed india is a subtree to justify some C&P malarkey in the UK tree, which is filled with SA, as well

Russian copy and paste is inevitable that’s why Britain shouldn’t get more Indian vehicles. Future Indian vehicles should get added to either Germany, Russia, Israel, or an independent TT (search “Call of Mahabharata” in the search bar)

You can’t ignore the Mig-21s, Su-30s, Mig-27s, and many more. India shouldn’t get added to Britain

If they are truly hellbent on adding india to Britain, they could limit it quite easily to British export stuff like further Jaguar Variants or the Sea Harrier FRS51.
But yes, absolutely 0 reason to add any C&P soivet vehicle at this time. Especially when so much is missing from Britain, let alone South Africa

Israel was once a “subtree” of the USA, and Italy was a massive part of the German tree, but they both ended up becoming their own trees. In fact there’s even a Chinese event vehicle in the US tree. So India could do the same thing as Israel and Italy and become a brand new tree that starts at rank 4. Maybe even rank 1 but the Copy and Paste would be too high.

Well it has already been added to UK, but for sure it should be removed from it. Like a few people in this forum I believe it fits best Israel, since Indians use a lot of Israeli tech and Israel really needs a subtree for air. India can’t be a nation of itself since it only has two lines worth of stuff, and only really starts at rank 4 like Israel
Completely agree mate, and the british stuff like the vickers variants and so on should go to britain
100 percent agree there as well mate, it’s diabolical that our top ground squadron vehicle is a damn T90 xd and the 12.3 prems a mig21.
Albiet suped up, still a mig21 at the end of the day.
He just told you that isreal was a part of the USA, and Italy was a part of germany at one stage.
They were subsequently removed from the larger trees and added as their own minor nations.
For example the Megach 3 ERA I believe is no longer in the US tree for purchase however I have one.
How so? ive seen absolutely huge lists of indian vehicles.
even so, if it doesn’t have enough stuff, gives no right to stuff it randomly into britain.
The canadian leopard 2A4M has more place in britain thanthe T90 Bhishma does.
Rather see the Leo2 and M1A2 britain actively trialed than a T90 as a squadron vehicle.
Could actually make Isreal a bit more diverse playstyle wise but who knows.
Its gaijin, well get leopards in every tree or T series and be pleased with it
