Maybe, but it could be another situation such as the Class 3P, they added it right before adding South Africa to Britain.
If the long term sub tree leaks are anything to go by, who knows.
Consistency isn’t in Gaijin’s dictionary, so it could go either way, who knows?

that is a problem that lays with sim itself. I don’t think vehicles (outside very few exceptions which can only be on the same team) exported or captured into another tree should be playable in sim at all.
no American harriers facing the native harriers in the British tree, no german Churchill or sherman, certainly not phantoms or f104 everywhere and all the T64 family tanks shouldn’t be on opposing teams either

that one was done out of spite, it was the literal update prior to the SA trees addition just to be an ass
I say +1, them sim players made gaijin nerf some models for air rb, so its just fair for them to suffer with more copy pastas in different trees

When did they do that?
I had only seen a few pictures and thought it was just US paint for training pilots. I had no idea this was an actual thing. Thanks for the detailed and interesting read!

This wasn’t even exported though. You can’t even use that argument with this bs

Im also for captured vehicles to appear in tech trees. however only as premiums like how they are in the german tree.
Well, I don’t. It just makes it pointless to play one nation. US and USSR have a ton of domestic options for cold war that are infinitely better than captured vehicles.

yes but it adds that little bit of spice while itself being something which can give a nod to a bit of history not so well known about
They can give a nod to history with a skin

-1, As many have said already, these types of captured/tested vehicles should only be available for tech trees that have no other alternatives. The russian tech tree has the luxury of a VERY diverse cast of indigenous planes that fills the role and BR that this plane would otherwise fill. Not to mention, this would be a complete copy/paste without anything interesting to add.
If we were to give the russian tech tree this vehicle, we might as well just give both russian and american planes to each other and make the tech trees viritually identical, since both of them have captured, disassembled and evaluated each others’ aircraft throughout the cold war.

Screw it, why not? +1

For BP/Event, captured and only tested make better rewards than 90% of them.

It’s better to add the Iranian F-5 in USSR tech tree. Anyways +1

I would only be in support of this if it also meant the US or Israel could get the captured Mig-21F (Israel would actually be properly justifiable, seeing as they nearly used it in combat and outfitted it with prototype Shafrir IIs for interception duties).
+/- 1, depending on circumstance.
Ain’t no way Japan should ever be on pact side, that should be reserved strictly for pact countries…
+1 would be cool
