gaijin, add eet-2 Osório to the Great Britain line, we Brazilians deserve it because we are bigger than the Argentine community and we are much less represented!
And why the British line? Because most of the parts come from there! Except for the cannon, which is French, and the engine, which is German.

but you see the cannon and engine of a tank are pretty unimportant, arent they
Brazil to Britain? Where’s the sense of that? Specially talking about the powerhouse that Brazil can offer to the game that is the EE-T2, if as a minor nation Italy is the best option and even Italy itself has a handful of vehicles from Romania, Hungary and Italy itself filling the gaps in battle rating 9.3 where this vehicle could be better placed in-game.
Turret was a Vickers design. Predecessor to the turret on the Mk.7. German government actually vetoed industry participating in development of Osorio so UK or France are more appropriate unless there’s an actual Brazilian subtree on the cards.
Prototype had a L7 105mm gun before Brazil selected the 120mm GIAT. British 120mm L11 was evaluated but recoil force was too great,

This vehicle was better than the Abrams and Challenger, it would be in 11.0 and Italy did not share parts for the Osório like the AMX A1, Brazil is not an official sub-nation of Italy, it would have to come to Great Britain because the chassis, turret, fire control, track, suspension, etc. are from the Vickers company
It’s more probably it’d be 10.3 like the AMX40. The reasons it was better than the Abrams are not really important to war thunder gameplay. It’s still less armored, slower and with a worse gun compared to the M1A1
Maybe the turret the cannon goes into is more important? Ay? Which was supplied by Vickers and literally taken off a Vickers MBT.
Just to see numbers, share your opinion on where it should go
Where should the Osório go?
- Germany
- UK
- Italy
- France
- LATAM

I’d also like to comment on the topic that the tank should go to Britain as the tank is almost entirely a Vickers design with only a few things from other countries

Yeah I believe the AMX-40 and Osorio use the same gun, and according to Wikipedia they are the exact same weight 43.7 metric tonnes.
You should include a LATAM tree option

Didn’t originally include it because I wanted to just have it go between the current nations
fair fair
You’d pair Brazil with Portugal, which you’d be cheeky and slot with Spain, so put whereever Spain goes.
That’s a possibility, but I’m not sure portugal really features much interesting, unique vehicles that could warrant even making a sub tree for nations that could receive it (mainly Italy, maybe France ?). Italy already has Hungary that gives it plenty of stuff to fill its gap and France by itself (plus Benelux) is also not in need of other NATO vehicles that Portugal could bring

You’re right. I’m just thinking about Gaijin’s reluctance to consider South America (apart from the few Argentine vehicles here and there). Maybe the best chance for Brazil is if it’s paired up with others. To me, for interesting and unique - I’m probably pushing for a former-Yugoslav like tree, Serbia-Croatia, etc. They’ve done some really interesting homebrew modifications to their vehicles (not sure what tree it’d go).
Seeing that most agree that the Osorio should go to the UK until a LATAM tree is added. Is there much other reason for discussion of the location of this tank besides BR?
Obviously I’m voting for a Latin America tree if the option exists. If that’s out of the question it’s the UK.
I understand, better to have a new Tech Tree than continues cramming of Trees like how SA is in Britain with India
