Yeah that makes more sense, we already have plenty of copy paste.
What’s with war thunder player and Indian tech tree obsession

imo gaijin should only add the unique airframes into the british tree and ignore every other design bc like an indian TT has only like 7 unique airframes

The same thing as Poland, it should be a tech tree but isn’t, so people ask for it

Can someone tell me if India uses mica ir? I could not find any reliable info
They must yeah, Rafale and m2k 5f can carry those, it’s the basic missile included in any Rafale package.

here some reall quick search online.
best and fastest way for you to find the proof, go look for india parade formation fighters. you will clearly see rafale with mica ir.

Exactly, most of this stuff is already in Britain, could be added into Britain (Vampires in folders, Hawks in folders, etc.), and could make multiple tiers more fun (Mirages from South Africa and India in Rank 7, rather than gimped Harriers and Phantoms, Tejas, Atlas, and MiG 29s over the Harriers and Tornadoes, etc.)
Problem is that on Ground there’s a lot less room (especially now since Australia seems to be a full fledged subtree instead of a split nation).

Eh, Britain has enough slow reverse speed tanks. We don’t need a T-90… another T-90.
Thanks for the spoiler, I forget how bright they make their stuff. Like it’s camouflage, how in the bloody hell are you hiding your equipment with neon green and orange stripes.
Although, I feel like the only ones that will be added will just be your generic BMP and T-Series. Can you imagine the outrage this community will have if Britain got a Leopard? The Germans already cried and whined because we said, “hey, Canada is Commonwealth, the 2A4M should be with us” and they said, “no, only we get Leopards” and then the Leopards went to everyone.
Edit: I know the Arjun isn’t technically a Leopard 2, but it is heavily based on it by the looks of it, plus, let’s be honest, the Germans will still freak out because it looks vaguely similar.

Sadly, I think you’d be right at this point, I don’t mind the modified ones but I wouldn’t want 1 to 1 copies unless it filled a gap nothing else could.
I like to think it’s rule of cool.
Oh it’s cool, don’t get me wrong (I am a sucker for that one forest camo in Russia, with the grey and the greens), I just don’t know how it is as practical as the dark green and khaki tiger stripes on the others. Granted, I’ve never been to India, and my only experience has been wildlife documentaries, psychedelics while learning about Hinduism, and Jungle Book (the cartoon, I don’t like live action Disney movies). Maybe it does work, I wouldn’t know.
Maybe the Arjun would be a premium. I would absolutely be against the premium status of it (I’ll end up buying it because I kinda dig India), but it’s not my decision, plus I’m sure it’s already a suggestion, and God knows how Gaijin hates repeats.
The thing with India is that you can get all tree types whether you talk about ground, air, helicopter or naval for both coastal and blue water. None of the other trees like Israel or Sweden can offer such variety. Being inside Britain as a sub tree is sure to leave out a lot of Indian equipment given the way sub tree is implemented.
Granted the air tree is not very unique but is serviceable enough to have a separate independent tech tree.
Also, in my view the tech tree is not just a representation of the machines but rather a history of the vehicles used by that nation for its warfighting capability. So even if initial aircrafts of Indian tech tree are same as Britain, I don’t mind it as it gives the complete history of India from its colony days to current state.
Is the MiG-23MF intentionally excluded?
Also, why are the BR of some of these jets so low (3.7? 4.3 for an Iskra?)
And do you have any sources for the carriage of air-to-air missiles for the MiG-25RBK? That’d have to be a domestic modification, at least Soviet ones only carried dumb bombs. And no, it’s not “technically compatible” because of the PD, the R series and P series MiG-25s have different wing structures and avionic systems.
Also are the BRs presented RB or AB? I’m going to guess AB since there’s a lot of discrepancies in BRs for the imported vehicles.

Except Sweden has plenty of variety, their domestic stuff, plus German and Russian stuff from the Finnish line, plus the F-16s and 18s for Norway and Finland. Plus the fact that Sweden used British equipment (Vampires, Hunters, Stridsvagn 101 (if I recall correctly).
I view India like how I view Korea. India was British through (what would be) Rank V. Just like how Korea is Japanese until Rank V as well, Israel is on the same boat (I don’t think they should’ve been their own tech tree). Otherwise, India can easily be a subtree (plenty of British copies, along with French stuff that could easily be in a folder).
