Duplicate Vehicles: Why We Add Them

To start, I do believe you bounced a round, just so you’re aware.

~54mm of protection cannot stop a DM53 equivalent round.

If you bounced a round, it wasn’t due to the ~54mm of protection the ERA provides flat [which is still ~54mm right now, today, this minute], it would’ve been due to something else entirely.

Overlapping plates, server errors, etc.

When did I say that. I said it’s the only one of its type. Machine gun tanks do not have a place as seen by m2a2 and it’s why they never added more

Because they don’t fit in the game…

._. Light AA Mk I is also a tracked vehicle.

You give me a .50 cal humvee for 1.3 - 1.7 and that’ll be my #1 SPAA truck.
Can’t comment on machine gun tracked vehicles cause I know less about them sadly.

And in the name is a anti air…

This entire post really comes off as “we don’t care, we want to milk the game for as long as possible instead of improving it.” If this was meant to improve the situation at all within the community congratulations, it failed.

I’ve normally approached the Franco-Swiss approach from major components perspective, so far, because if MOWAG requests to use a turret built in another country, that other firm has to agree. But if if you want it from the nuts and bolts side of things, here are a few examples:

  • Panzer 61 and Panzer 68 involved the French Firm SAMM who developed the drives for the PZ 61, produced a stabilized PZ61 turret, and then produced stabilized drives for the Panzer 61. S1. S2.

  • Potez 630 B-2 and Potez 632 B-1, two French Potez 63’s that were ordered by Switzerland, with specific fitting requests for Swiss armaments. The 632 was also fitted before delivery with a Hispano-Suiza Engine. S1. S2.

  • Shark FL-20 was a prototype partnership between MOWAG and Fives-Cail Babcock. S1.

  • Promotional Material for the FL-12 explicitly calls out Fives-Cail Babcock. S1.

It’s not hard to accept that the Swiss and French collaborated to develop a number of really interesting vehicle designs.

Any time Gaijin is caught doing something wrong, its never their fault. They always somehow find a way to blame a third party every single time. Gaijin rarely ever accepts accountability for something. They find a way to blame someone else always.

I don’t care about copy paste. Just reduce the grind if you are going to keep adding vehicles. I’ve noticed the trend of you adding vehicles reducing the grind but adding the RP you took out back just a few months later with new vehicles. It’s a scam. I’ve played off and on for over a decade and yet have not been able to finish multiple trees. I get close but you keep adding new shit. I have yet to finish an air tree as air is boring as fuck in top tier. Japan is the only nation where I have 99.99% spaded for ground but only at 10.0 for air. It’s just too much. Also you keep adding Squadron vehicles but it takes months to get one vehicle. Y’all can suck it on that shit. I’ve been hearing a lot of this game is dying for the past few months and well I am now in that camp of let it come you deserve the death of your company.

At least give us a rp boost for having the exact same vehicle but in another tree

… That does not make it a joint developed lmao with that logic the Abrams is German because it uses the l44

Also again not jointly developed. Just requesting differences

Because they are the manufacturers of the turret system. That’s all lmao

The F-15EX Eagle II isn’t coming to the game anytime soon. Gaijin will definitely want to release it together with stuff like the Su-35S and J-16. The more realistic option right now is the F-15E with an AESA radar – no extra work needed, just replace the radar on the in-game F-15E
