Love everyone arguing against the nonsense of F-14 in Soviets.
Why is it nonsense?
(looks at his battle count)
Checks out…
It’s an American aircraft sold for export, and the Soviets never captured an F-14.
Same reason why F-15 F-16 and Apache are in multiple nation TT
We’ve explained it already, stop being ignorant like you haven’t already heard the answer. The Iranian F-14 is going to the USA as an event vehicle, and that’s not changing. Cope.
Yes but Iran as a sub nation makes more sense in Russia then USA for example why is there a Swiss Hunter in German tech tree?
I tell you all reasons but you all just say no
Iran is not a sub-tree and will never be a sub tree cause there’s not enough vehicles.
Also Russia isn’t a tech tree, the Soviets are.
Russian equipment is just hosted in the Soviet tech tree.
I play since project X and in the last few weeks i played less war thunder so you just say what i say is wrong because i have a life?
I didn’t say sub tree i said a sub nation like switzerland
Fun fact :
Even with a shit ton of missiles, F-4S player statcards are usually trash as hell.
It is consistent with previous implementations.
The Canadian leopard would work in the UK tree due to the history the 2 nations have together, but it is in the German tree because it is a German tank.
Same playstyle BTW.
Only reason I haven’t played F-4J is cause I have Phantom FG1.
Yet people will say F-4J is bad and F-14A is OP.
And no, not saying they’re equal, just saying they’re largely equally balanced for the BRs they are.
The Hunter F58 is a British jet yet Germany got the swiss one
Your “reasons” lack logic, and don’t align with gaijin’s rules of implementation of vehicles into war thunder.
I and probably the majority of the Iranian player-base are very ok with the plane being added to the US tree
And I also agree, both me and my Persian friend are more happy it isn’t in the Israeli tech tree as that would’ve been a huge insult.
Why does it need R27R? it has Fakour90 and Aim54 Fox-3 missiles, and sejil Fox-1. IR missiles are overrated for a low CM count airplane anyway
The reason it needs the R-27R is because unlike the F-14A and F-14B it won’t be receiving the AIM-7F/M. All it will have available for a agile Fox 3 other than the R-27R will be the AIM-7E-2 which doesn’t really cut it.
I still don’t understand how this ended up in Germany
The Hunter F.58 was most likely added to Germany to provide a platform with access to TV guided AGMs at that BR. They are most likely treating Switzerland as a support nation, just like Australia and Canada.
Most of us may dislike this, but that’s how it’s going to be.
The USSR tree does not need a F-14, they do not have an Iranian subtree, neither the Soviets nor the Russians had anything to do with the Iranian F-14, except for supplying R-27Rs, which didn’t actually end up being used on the Iranian F-14A. Therefore the Iranian F-14A is going to the country of origin.
So its fine if its for Germany, but not if its for Russia? Adding more cas planes helps no one and is more of a reason that they shouldn’t have added the Swiss hunter at all instead of a reason it should have gone to Germany.
