Get the Iranian F-14A IRIAF in the ‘Persian Tomcat’ event

The parts are still fabricated as close to US specs as possible to fit the US-manufactured aircraft so it can remain air-worthy, so again while they are domestically produced they are done so to not-domestic specs to fit a not-domestic aircraft. If it was an aircraft 100% domestically produced - From blueprints and ground up - It would be an entirely different matter.

Shed some light on the issue then because last time I checked it was placed in the US TT because USSR simply didn’t need it.

Only because it would annoy ppl like you apparently since you can’t even tolerate the idea of it as a joke.

Polish MiG-29 couldnt use AIM-120 at any point in time. The whole integration project was abandoned at the very early stage. The closest to integrate were AIM-9X and JHMCS but that project also didnt go further than some very basic testbed.

So we went down from,

Missiles,
Politics,
needs,
Russia suffers.

and non stuck so anything else Russia main want to add ?

It’s really quite massive with some wonderful unique designs later on, with the Abrams from Wish (which is secretly a T-72) and the T-90M at home lmao, with even some great SPAA options! The only downside to an independent tech tree would be the air tree, which in a similar way to Israel, would be barren and lack unique additions (but there would be a few exceptions, similar to Israel and their modified aircraft, Iran has plenty of upgraded/modernized aircraft). The best solution in that regard would be subtree. Helis are a similar story I’ve heard, but I think there’s a thread on this called “Hypothetical Iranian Air TT”, I’ll paste the link in right here if I find it and edit it in.

Also apparently what we could expect in regards to helis: Hypothetical Iranian Air TT - #3 by NotKringe

Gaijin should start releasing combined-nations techtrees

Ok, so you do have an interest in which tree it goes to.

Nope.

I could put mental illness but that break the rules a bit.

I’m sure it won’t be long before something like that happens, however I think it would be a bit weird to implement. Just the thought of Two flags next to each other combined for a single tech tree seems, wrong. Just doesn’t feel right from my perspective, but it may be the best way to implement it. (Either that or they screw it over and add it as combined sub tree like they did with Benelux)

That makes us all spicy, then

nation - middle east / warsaw pact / etc

should work imo

I agree with this. There are many nations that might not have the vehicles for a full tech tree without it being entirely copy/paste but grouping TTs in via Region or Military Relation is a great idea

Well its not like it does need it so

If the USSR doesn’t need a subtree, it certainly needs a little filler like any other nation (although I’d say the priority is much lower in most cases) in certain areas and in certain roles.

If having 14 T-80 variants is the reason why the USSR doesn’t get a subtree, then at least give the USSR interesting variants like T-80UM-1, BVM (obr. 2023), T-90S, T-90 (pre A, cast turret), or T-27B2.

This is one of the specific points I’ve been making. By the logic, it should be an IIAF F-14 with all US weaponry.

Agreed.

The student movements from '77-'79 were the biggest factor. The Ayatollah tapped into it. The US was not interested in any way what-so-ever in getting rid of its control on Iran.

Ground? Yes. Air? What game are you playing dude?

We won’t get a Pan-Arab/Middle Eastern tree, MENA is going to get carved up into separate sub-trees.

I mean we technically have the USSR, which is technically considered a combination of nations nowadays after the collapse, don’t see why not ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Sorry, but what part of the US TT needs ANOTHER F-14. USSR and China, for example, could use a 12.3/12.7 missile bus.
