We have another significant mobility buff for the Brits passed to the devs (thanks to L2ulan)
A huge buff for the Vickers Mk.11
350 hp → 508hp
15 hp/ton → 25.5 hp/ton
This would make the Vickers insanely fast, for context, the comparable Rooikats have a hp/ton below 20. This would bring it close to the Radkampfwagen in terms of power to weight.
We can cope this gets implemeted soon

Oooh, Very nice
I really need to finish that line at some point :D
Would be a very nice 9.7 light tank if they also give it DM33
The MiG-23 at the moment has an issue with its radar rn where it doesn’t get picked up by RWR during manoeuvres.

As we cannot take off from carriers anymore in sim. Can we get aim 9L on one of the british phantoms to differentiate it from the other one?

New datamines have dropped and it appears mid/high tier Britain is getting a tech tree rework.
The South African line is being murdered, and replaced with lines specific to vehicle types.
Britain will now have:
Domestic MBT line
Export/Foreign MBT line
IFV/TD Line
SPAA Line
Light tank line
This makes the tech trees more streamlined in terms of vehicle type, but removes the unique subtree line.
Gzazbi claims the devblog tommorow will cover a “British ground tree rework”, however its not confirmed and I’m not sure how extensive it will be
These changes will take place AFTER the major update, so you’ll have time to grind out what you need

Hopefully some more Vickers MBTs then :D
Hopefully! It also gives a dedicated line to add light tanks to
lays the works for the Vickers Mk.4, 7/2 and the Arjuns
also hopefully Vickers Mk.3i 3M and the rest

Yeeeeaahhhhh Booooyyyyyy !!
I would have liked to see the Challenger 2E be brought into the Vickers Mk.7 line, but maybe they will change that later

we could get the Greek Trials version of the 2E for the export line, rather than the one we have currently

That would be good, then Britain would have two fast Challengers to use at top tier
I hope its a prelude to bringing in a bunch of British domestic medium/mbt and light tanks from the cold war. Also allows for a better tipple from the Commonwealth.
A lot of people focus on 10.0 and up, but really where the bread and butter of interesting British design comes in is really the 6.0-9.0 zone.

Need APDS overhaul for that bracket to be fun imo.
Oh and a SPAAG for 6.0-8.0
clearly a job for blowpipe, would be balanced at around those BRs by sheer difficulty of use, like the RB05A on the SK60

Finding it hilarious that the Rapier cant one shot recon drones :D
And apparently its fine
Recon drones are truly made out of wondrium, i have had them eat multiple stingers and rolands before and just shrug it off like nothing happened…
On a side note they are also the one thing i find AHEAD works well against.
