Don’t remember people complaining much when Sweden got those

So what? That doesn’t mean copy paste is good. Soviet F-5E is a bad addition, regardless of if unrelated nation has an unrelated Russian MBT
People definitely complained when they got them. Reasonably so. It was Bologne and a half that Gaijin gave it to them- and people even now are complaining about it. I sure do. I bring up how much I hate copy paste just about every chance I get.
The US shouldn’t get Captured Soviet/German Vehicles, and the USSR shouldn’t get captured German/Western tech. End of Sentence. Period. However, if nations must, and I mean MUST, have other tech, at least make it tech they actually had the capability to operate in a fighting capacity. None of this “well we captured one but we didn’t have any exterior armaments available for it but still we should get it” Horseplay.
I would not sit here and argue for a US Su-27, or T-34, or T-80, etc. etc. The US should have domestically produced or acquired vehicles. ONLY.

Agreed.
Better yet, add it as a skin to avoid copy pasting vehicles.

USSR about to get the same treatment - people are mad

I haven’t seen a single player happy for German copy paste.

There’s going to be people upset about it, but most people like them from what I’ve seen.
At least half of them were modified by Germany and are unique vehicles, namely the KW 1 C. The outright copypaste vehicles shouldn’t be there.

I dislike any and all copy paste that makes visual identification harder or nearly impossible (especially with decals to cover-up roundels)
Sure… Right after the US gets the:
MiG-15, MiG-17, MiG-19, MiG-21, MiG-23, MiG-25, MiG-29, Su-7, Su-22, Su-27…
Do you see why this is a stupid suggestion yet?

The point is, these are all bad suggestions, USSR F-5 included.
Tech Trees exist for a reason.

Give me one good reason why enemy nations should have the same aircraft.
There’s some argument for china/russia sharing things and US/Britain sharing things and Italy/Germany/japan sharing things, but what reason is there fore sharing things between post-war US and post-war USSR when the two nations are directly opposed.
All these weird copy-paste things do is ruin GSB and ASB enjoyment for zero benefit other than “there’s a premium F5 option now!”
In which case, if you want a premium F5E, why not just keep it in the U.S tech tree?
That has to be my biggest annoyance. If I want a premium yak-3, I need to buy it in the french TT rather than soviet (with Eremin’s being market only) and end up with yak-3 vs yak-3 and confusing my teammates and getting teamkilled and whatnot. At least Mustang/Corsair/Hellcats are in british tree and britain is allied to US.

Because it’d be pretty cool and 66 other people think so too
So, your argument is:
“It’s cool”
versus
“It negatively affects players in 2 game modes that rely on visual identification.”
I do not think “cool” outweighs the negative impact.

Do you not get I’m being sarcastic? Of course it is bad for game health and not a reasonable addition, this doesn’t exclude me or others from wanting it though.
The objectively correct opinion, yes.
