French players got upset that Sweden got the Ito when they were added, NASAMS is just a repeat of that lol
they should be thankful for getting it in the first place, the same with the Austrian SK-105
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
Should of just added the Austrian one into Germany… Should of let the alpine tree
Old forums and reddit, it’s been how many years since the Ito was added? I’m sure you could probably find a reddit post given the old forums is gone
Also anything will have someone who’s upset with something it’s how this stuff goes
They should be thankful that they got a handed a copy-pasted version of the Crotale under another national flag, that they never used, instead of the vehicle they actually built and tested domestically?
This is certainly one of the takes of all time.

Tbf iirc this model can’t fully turn the turret correct? I remember talking to some peeps about this a while back wondering why it wasn’t added (more likely gaijin was too lazy to hire someone to model this for France)

You asked the same question in the suggestion thread, and this same answer was given - there are videos of the system with the turret fully rotated 180°
Eh it’s been a while besides isn’t there like a multi vehicle Crotale system also? Or something similar like a smaller truck mounted with the Crotale? That would be neat also alongside this
It was also mounted on a weird Renault truck.
Found the one I was thinking about
Ngl I dig the hell out of this, ZA also has them which is cool
Canada isn’t set as a dedicated sub tree to any nation yet, So by your logic the Italians shouldn’t have any of the Hungarian vehicles they didn’t have anything to do with.
The US received a lot of vehicles from the British during the lend-lease program, Which is still overwhelmingly under represented ingame for the US.
Where’s the Fireflies the Americans used in Italy?
Literally the ones who designed and built it.
Germany has the Class 3P despite not using it.
The Brits have the VFM5, A clone of the CCVL, despite it literally being designed to be exported only, On top of that its a tech tree tank, While the CCVL in the US tree is event/pay walled.
The prototype of a prototype that the Brits didn’t even intend on using gets to be a tech tree while the nation that did the majority of the work designing doesn’t get theirs for free, Oh but its so bad the Americans got a copy of a vehicle they designed and built, How horrible, So unfair.
Added prior to ZA sub tree as it was German developed.
It’s more the fact that both USA and Japan should’ve had distinct versions. I’m not seething over the fact the stingray is in the USA tree but slightly disappointed it wasn’t a different variant.

Issue isn’t that they have it, it’s that it’s the Thai specific versions which had quite a few small adjustments compared to the intended production model (which was the standard of the second prototype).
But despite being a Thai specific vehicle, it has the US flag in game, unlike the Finnish ITO or Norwegian NASAMS in the French and American techtrees respectively. The Thai version also gets the roundel in front of the name, as if it’s the copy and not the other way around, which again is just wrong.
Either the one in the US techtree should get the Thai flag and the name should be changed to have the roundel (US star in this case) instead of the Thai version, or they should remodel it into an actual American Stingray, which would be either one of the Cadillac Gage owned prototypes.

Mate, would you prefer getting nothing for 4 updates? Or get at least 2 copy-and-paste within that time frame? Before finally getting 5 new Grund vehicles, not C&P. Which, from my understanding, still costs around 10 grand for them to produce.
Also, what a company is worth does not mean what a company actually has as its annual budget.

Crotale missiles

Think i should have worded that better but the point still stands.
Hungary isn’t Italy, Italy didn’t have any involvement with those vehicles.
But no one is going to bat an eye that they are in the Italian tree.
Yet, If one day Gaijin where to decide to say Canada is a sub tree of the US, Based on how much whining there is over them having a couple Canadian vehicles, We all know what kind of a reaction that would stir in the forums here.
According to the forums here:
Random nations being thrown together to fill out tech trees is OK, But not if it ends up in the US tree.
Major nations like the Brits getting 3 sub nations (Australia, South Africa, India) and Germans getting 2 (Argentina, Switzerland) is OK, But good luck arguing giving the US one.
(No South Korea, Despite having a deeper connection to each-other than Germany/Argentina).
Imports of things that where only purchased in small numbers or even just tests is OK, Just not if its to the US tree.
Its just interesting how much of a double standard there is.
For some reason its the one and only tech tree where its a problem when they get something that has even the slightest involvement with another country, They MUST share, But NEVER receive, Or else there is endless whining.
