They removed the Brazilian AMX, and with every update they ignore the second largest military nation in the entire American continent. We have the F-5EM, which could have been placed in Italy as a premium option, Gripen, Mirages, A-4s. We have ground vehicles with a military history like the EE-9 Cascavel, including projects like the Osorio and Tamoyo MBTs, international purchases like the Centauro 2, and Gaijin continues to ignore Brazil. And to slap the Brazilian community in the face, they put the Venezuelan Su-30 as a premium option while removing the AMX from the store.

Yes, but it’s painful to see the second largest military power in all of America being ignored in this way. Even with the MAA-1 heat-seeking missile we have, they’re using the worst version. Brazil developed the MAA-1B which has IRCCM. There are more modern versions of the AMX itself, but Gaijin choose to ignore one of the largest communities and nations on the American continent.

I humbly think your nationalism is getting the better of you.
If they gave the AMX the IRCCM missiles, it should’ve been 11.7 at least, making it even more unplayable.
I think you’re taking Gaijin’s usual indifference way too personal. They take South American vehicles mostly to milk the playerbase, and they move on. I repeat, don’t take it personal.

Considering it was not part of a subtree, or relevant to brazil as far as representation at all.
You should probably praise the change as it gives Gaijin more leeway when adding a LATAM subtree, as having a Brazilian aircraft in another tech tree complicates the addition of that vehicle in a future tree/subtree
Event/Celebration :
you still have the camo in the games for 3 vehicules is you want them has ‘brazilian’ :
You have to understand that they need to incorporate everything in some way so that they can provide updates for a long time.
They need to focus on the nations they have now, and then add the ones they have in their secret development roadmap. Plus, they said they wouldn’t be adding better missiles this year. You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for the Python 4.
As a Czech player, I also want things to change, such as the removal of Czech and Slovakian vehicles from the Russian tech tree.But not everything goes as you would like.

Same thing happened to our (Finnish) vehicles, which before fire & ice were scattered around the place (Ito-90s, pyörremyrsky, Kv1B, etc).
So I agree, vehicles and nations should come at their own pace, and rushing things is a recipe for disaster
Well,as I said, this is just my personal frustration on the subject, and yes, I may be being patriotic, but Brazilian tanks and planes in the game would help attract an audience from Brazil itself, which would mean more money, since it’s a large market.

Now that we have the MiG-29 sniper, what’s the point of keeping the AMX there? It wasn’t good, it wasn’t good for grinding, and it wasn’t selling.

It wouldn’t be that bad if it sit at 1 step lower br. Sniper is a completely different plane with different role and rank.
Very poor argument, Brazil has decent representation in-game for a nation that isn’t entirely in-game, directly by Gaijin with vehicles and celebrations and indirectly on local tournaments; I feel sorry for Cuban players, if there’s any with their only Cuban vehicle being the MiG-17AS being nowhere to be seen, I can’t even remember when it was available for purchase. This selfishness and the worst part being this nationalism which is the poorest support you can rely on when talking about nations in War Thunder has no place; The Su-30MK2 was needed to support high tier USSR premium vehicles to research, it has nothing to do with preferential treatment to Venezuela, because far from what I know, Brazil doesn’t operate Su-30MK2, and as others mentioned, vehicles are removed or added in the store based on their sale performance, yet never officially stated, at least this being the most obvious argument and availability of a better vehicle to be sold as a premium pack vehicle with solely purpose to research a tech tree like MiG-29 Sniper.

Which can now be a thing since we can change the nation name to suit the line ups we want
I thought Brazil had the largest military in South America? Did Argentina increase it’s military size recently?
You may want to read again, he mentioned the american continent, that implies the US being the first :)
American continent singular, Brazil is in South America, The US is in North America, those are two different continents. American continents plural, would have implied both which would include The US.
Americans/English are the only ones who prioritize the separation of America into subcontinents, when they’re part of the same geological plate, while the French, Spanish and Portuguese prioritize the mention of the continent as a whole.
Semantics aside, you were replying to a portuguese speaker, who appealed to America as the whole continent. Therefore, it implies the US as the first.
The only removed it from the store - not the game fffs!!
They will bring it back when they think there might be a bit more demand for it - this is ther way of generating some FOMO marketing.
