China should not get a M1A2T Abrams

The US and China have terrible relations now too. The US and China have also fought a war against each other. They have never been, since Communist China took over, on ‘good terms’. What’s your point? End of the day, it is double standards regardless of which way you cut the cake.

If they Always added the best version to the US, there would be no incentive to grind other nations, or at least that’s how gaijin sees it

The US rarely ever has a need to update outdated platforms, other nations do. It leads very often to foreign operators of vehicles upgrading them well past any domestic production standard. This can also be seen on the RU side with many vehicles such as the MiG-21, or even in some newer cases like how most of the best Su-30s are export variants.

Exactly, still waiting for some Leopards Bradleys and Abrams

Thats not true at all though? Theres like six different blocks of the F-16. The US is up to V4 on the SEP package for a tank from the 80s. Its a choice by Gaijin not to add those for some reason that feels like just balant bias most of the time. A clesr majority of the top tiers of US vehicles is still from the 90s while almost everyone else is on 2000-2020 (roughly).

The US doesn’t operate the newest blocks of F-16s though? Block 70/72s are only for foreign sale. and wasn’t the SEP V4 canceled?

Nah, both should follow through as hundreds of other copy pastes.

They don’t and they did.

The US sells the latest variant of F-16s abroad because, simply put- they don’t need them. They have F-35s and F-22s; whats the point of making the F-16 better when they already have a vastly better system?

Also, the US is looking at upgrading from the Abrams, its current heavy tan- I mean MBT (sorry Pentagon), the moment it can afford to and sees a need for it (drone warfare isn’t exactly looking favorably on current MBTs- we need to find a solution to drones before finding a replacement for the M1A2).

But the point is the US has more modern stuff not being added at a pace equal to its contenders. Where is the SEPV3? Russia already has the T-90M (2020), Germany and others with their 2A7 (2017) and the 2A7V in (2021) (according to google). The SEPV2 was 2008? Wheres the M3A3 Bradley?

I can come up with a name for the F-47 but that doesn’t mean I have any right to one

Then you also oppose USA ever getting M1A2 SEP3 as well.
Otherwise you’re applying double standards.

yes but not as extreme as they tried to make it where US didnt get an f16 with sparrows

i get your point, China does have a lot of choices at top tier. BUT, the game is about realism and having the most amount of vehicles in the game, so i would propose it as a event vehicle, what do you think?

The T90M in the game is OBR-2017

As a premium, squadron, or event vehicle for the US; yes. For China? Absolutely not.

is that why many US top tier planes are missing their BOL pods?

So your post argues Taiwan isn’t China, and shouldn’t ever be recognized as China despite it literally being named China IRL.
That is what your post portrays by claiming M1A2T shouldn’t go to its RIGHTFUL tech tree.

It’s not just opposing M1A2T either, it’s opposing VT-4 in Thailand, as well as all tank additions in the future.

year of entry has nothing to do with the initial version, the War Thunder version is the T90M Obr Proryv-3
