The J-22M1A aircraft (or another variant, the NJ-22 Orao 2.0) should be added to the Italian research tree, since Romania—which is represented in the Italian tree—also participated in its development. Please.
NJ-22 is Yugoslav. And we basically know it’ll go to the Soviet technology tree if not a Yugoslavian one which the ladder is preferred.
As much as I did not want the Orao to go to the USSR (well, not to be added at all rn to begin with overall), it going to Italy would make less sense. Romania did not participate with the upgrades beyond the base one (which was Yugoslavia at the time). The M1A is almost fully/fully indigenous (Serbian) with it’s upgrades
Pretty sure nothing was confirmed at all, or when I last checked I guess
It’s been so long since we got the last new tree and it was fucking israel of all things. And even now the only news about new trees have mentioned Korea quite a while ago. My hopes for a yugo tree are quite low.
I would rather have IAR-93A and MB for the Italian regular tree.
