Its still pretty bad especially when it comes to historical vehicles, the KV-1B had a large role in the Continuation War yet its locked behind Germany. Split subnations are also pretty terrible.
Does anyone have pictures of the SS-1, the SS-2, the SS-3, and the SS-4 prototypes? I know they were around on the old forum, but that’s shut down and I can’t find any of them online except for the four-barreled SS-1 (kai) prototype.
Do you have pictures of the SS-4 and the SS-4 (kai), by any chance?

I remember playing the Stingray on Armored Warfare, was a VERY effective little light tank.

Will the stingray be at 9.3?
Depends on the ammo it gets.
cant really be higher as it doesnt get thermals
It’s basically the VFM.5, so as long as it gets comparable ammunition, the Stingray will also probably be 9.3 with the VFM.5
Stingray will be a great addition to my 9.7 lineup. Besides my top tier lineup, it is the only one I play on a regular basis. So other than Stingray, I am really curious for the Oplot, I wonder how Gaijin implements it.
It should get M426, which is just a bit better than the DM33 of the VFM5, not sure if that would be worth a BR increase but we’ll see.
Well, Norway is a different type of thing. Norway ain’t subtree for Sweden (Gaijin did not proclaim it as such) therefore additions from it were mostly premium filler. I would agree if u mentioned Finland because that one is indeed treated unfairly.
But, the more I think about, the more I feel like VT-4 should not have been denied this update, and should not have been considered a premium, but not because it is kind of MBT in quantity, but because Thai subtree feels too unfinished.
M163 is nice to have as an AA for 7.3 lineup, Thai T-84 shall be an interesting addition because I am done cosplaying glasscannon cautious camper in Type 90s/10s (I just want that Soviet-style full “W” gameplay). But M60 TTS will be a copypaste for already full lineup at 9.0, Stingray is great as well, but its uniqueness is ruined because devs will add the same exact vehicle to the US (I am not against it, but to keep some sort of uniqueness, they could have postponed it for next update or give their Stingray II), and the VT-4 being excluded leave not a lot to await from such a subtree. I mean, was it not denied and premium, it would be a fairly nice introduction to Thai subtree, like:
M60 TTS => Stingray => VT-4 => Oplot-T. M163 in AA line. Also a lot of space for further additions at lower tiers, but this time around it is quite a weaksauce.
mmm They where trying to uptier the VFM5 in the current BR changes, so idk. I hope it’s 9.3 though. The XM8 is 9.7 and is simply better than either the Stingray or VFM5.

I feel like it’s only premium so Gaijin can sell something alongside these Thai vehicles. If it’s delayed I think there’s a better chance it’d be added to the tech tree instead.

I guess this is another suggestion from me then (working on Indonesian stuff rn anyway) - but what about the Monk?
Japanese/Thai Beginners Pack exclusive PFP? xP
Edit: Done, suggestion now pending.
