So with the recent announcement of the German and Norway Leopard 2A8, you may ask who eles can get one?
of course there is France / BeNeLux with the Dutch Leopard 2A8. But there is also Czech who have purchased 61 Leopard 2A8 tanks.
Although some may argue that Czechoslovakia isn’t a USSR sub-tree the reality is that is where the Czechoslovakia vehicles have gone. And just because Gajin say no now, doesn’t mean they wont in the future
This is the first time in my life that I have seen such a ridiculous forum topic. Leopard 2a8 is a tank that is not in the game and you want it in the Soviet tree.
The Leopard 2A7 and Strv 122s are overpowered enough, we do NOT need the 2A8 in the game.
ragebait 0/10, honestly this is worse than german main ragebait
2A8 is too ugly for the USSR tree. T-90M at least looks sexy.
The 2a8 should only be added for Germany.
Nope. It will be added to multiple others, especially those who get Norway and the other order customers.
With the state of Germany at the moment, they only hitch a ride on other nations who order their tanks.
That is likely to be the case, but personally I would definitely prefer not, in order to preserve the uniqueness of the new top tier. I don’t even play Germany anymore, so this is not coming from the perspective of a German main. I feel like the France will still have the newer Leclerc to be added, and Sweden will have their own heavy leopard.
ATP, just give china the f22 bc why not…
YES please we need it
The USSR mains claiming stuff from Czech is nothing new lmao Gripwn AH64 ect ect lol, its your standard cope and baut from them lol
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
USSR should be named Russia. Or its going to be a coalition tree.
I will not get perma banned over such basic ragebait.
I would rather never see czech vehicles at all in warthunder than see them as subtree to USSR.
Also USSR doesnt need leopards. No need to kill TT identity further.
But it does need competitive tanks. Not the t-90 trash boxes. And as soon as “X need to get tanks for lineups” or “full experience” its always something from USSR that is being added because some small spot on world`s face used (hello finland, Germany, hungary) or intended to use something from USSR (hello oplot-p and 80U). Thats ridiculous logic applied.
You are equating countries getting vehicles they HISTORICALLY used with need for competetive tanks.
Thats false equivalency.
“both”?
No, i equate tanks that were added for balance and lineups (or whatever “full experience” is for those devs) to tanks that are needed for balance and lineups.
“Historically used” ussr techs in Hungary - is when the Hungary was the ally, therefore, must be a subtree of USSR as GDR is a subtree of germany, if you want to go that way. Tho they dont offer anything unique so should not even exist in game in the first place, but that`s the next question in line
Hungary getting tanks hungary used during cold war is not the same as russia hypothetically getting czech leopards 2A8s which have no connection to russia and whats more, were bought to deter russia.
Thats geniunely stupid.
UK used US tech during WW2, does that qualify UK for subtree of US?
