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.

These are all bad suggestions in your opinion

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.

Right haha. Nobody is stopping anyone from making such suggestions. Speaking of, I’m going to start working on one, such as the A-37 Dragon Fly that was transferred from Vietnam to the Soviet Union.

Because nobody but you can be right

Lol, maybe I’ll make those suggestions for you if you’re too lazy

Preemptive +1 from me!

-1 from me. I can understand wanting the funni MiG-28 ingame, but that isn’t enough to justify it’s inclusion ingame. Russia is choked full of aircraft as it is, and there is still more to add, they don’t need copypasta.

I understand that, my idea on it’s inclusion is when and if the Iranian sub tree leak does come true, it can be a skin for one of their F-5Es, would be more interesting that way anyway since it uses Iranian and Russian missiles and wouldn’t be a copy and paste.

+1! I see this as an event vehicle or something.
