Canadian Ground Forces Tech Tree

The US main want Canada because “Canada is just next to the USA”

The German main want Canada for their leopards

The British main want Canada because of the Commonwealth

And the rest of the people claim that Canada is copy and paste but don’t really look the quality of the tree

Just let us have our own tree dammit

All the reasons that you mentioned are correct,except for the last sentence.

Canada in itself would be a solid tree.

Could help bolster the early tier by adding the Universal Scout Car. It was suppose to be armed with a 20mm according to Secret Weapons of the Canadian Army book.

Either way I want Canada to get it’s own tech tree

Canada is in a rough spot in War thunder, torn up into three nations while not being big enough to get its own tree.

I think it would be best if all Canadian and Australian stuff got put into the British tree so that all the commonwealth of nations is together as one

I’d say both this tree here and the air tree I’m working on disagree.

Theres a lot of vehicles canada has used, but not enough to be more than a subtree

I’m sorry used? Do you mean Built

There are over 100 unique vehicles in this tree alone, and in the air tree, over 80% were built by Canada.

So you pull the not enough number out of your ass.

Still used by the Armée Canadienne natively built or not, dont ignore the export vehicles Canada used for nationalist reasons or whatever you’re trying to say.

tell me how many of those vehicles would actually fit War Thunder that arent already in the game. because the most notable ones are either American or British-built. the Kangaroos wont make any sense, The otter only had a Bren gun, the Grizzly is just a Sherman, Sexton would more than likely get the British army variant added as British forces used them more, Lynx would be very interesting to see, Leopard C1 and the Canadian centurions would be interesting to see but still there’s not a full tree to be made here

(note Canadian flagged things aren’t marked)
So there is a total of 141 things here, out of the number there are 29 copy and paste, 19% of this suggestion. Rounding down by things that should be in other trees there are about ~100 unique vehicles give or take.

And the those are? As most of the US and UK stuff are heavy and post-WW2 mediums.

All the the WW2 trucks are CMP(Canadian military pattern), also I see you skipped the LAVs which are domestic vehicles built in Ontario.

Ah, yes because another nation used it makes it not domestic even those the makers also used it in numbers.

And I guess the Jumbo is C&P then? The Grizzly is still a Canadian-built tank.

And where do you see a Kangaroos on this suggestion?

That also isn’t on this tree and was only brought up later. It also has a turreted .303 Bren Light Machin Gun that can perform the AA role.

Are you talking about the 2-pdr one? (which is another domestic vehicle) or the post-war M113 one that someone was trying to make a suggestion to alow it to be added?

Only if you look at MBTs, Heavys and most WW2 mediums. Which it sounds like you are doing.


And I see you skipped the Ram, CMP and LAV families as I pointed out earlier all of which have about 10 things each give or take. Also other one-offs like the Bobcat 105(or its older brother the XA-100) and all of the post-war trucks/cars which about half would be unique to Canada.

The 2A6NL in the proposal should be replaced with the 2A6M because Canada got their 2A6s from Germany, not the Netherlands.

Okay, and why is the Leopard 2A6NL part of this hypothetical TT?

Canada never had 2A6NLs, in fact, they never had any other variant than the 2A6Ms (CAN), which at the end of the day all are ex-German Leopard 2A6Ms.

Why are you asking me? I’m not the one that made the tree.

However you are incorrect, the 2A6M CAN that Canada currently has is ex-dutch 2A6s. The 20 German 2A6s were borrowed from Germany and returned when Canada bought the Dutch ones. It’s in the story here and elsewhere I found it.

2 Likes

The dutch 2A6s went to Germany because Canada specifically wanted mine protection, which those didn’t have. They also got used to the 2A6Ms already and wanted to keep them. The 2A6NLs went on to become 2A7s.

This is wrong? Canada never returned Germany’s 2A6Ms, they instead had purchased Dutch 2A6s and gave them to Germany as a compensation.

However you are incorrect, the 2A6M CAN that Canada currently has is ex-dutch 2A6s.

Lol. Yontzee is stright up wrong.

maybe but nothing I found states that. just “Canada had bought 20 Dutch 2A6s that allowed the return of the German 2A6Ms”

I do recall seeing stories that the Dutch 2A6s were used to pay off the other leos but I found nothing looking into this for an answer and instead claims that the Dutch 2A6s were converted into the 2A6M CANs.

Yea, that’s what I’m saying. Canadian forces wanted to keep the german 2A6Ms but since they were only leased, they had to return other tanks. The solution was to buy 2A6NLs and give those to Germany. The 2A6Ms were turned into 2A6M CANs and the 2A6NLs into 2A7s.
