Israeli early Ground forces (rank 1-2-3)

Does that have traverse?

They got the launcher point sideway so probably. there’s also this thing

Completely agree with this reply. The game is already suffering from terrible arcade 2.0 issues regarding the gameplay features and maps. modern stuff in the past, vice versa. Allies vs axis match making non-existent. Much more but I’m derailing. I’m surprised so many are supportive of smearing historical tank battles even more in ways like this. No thanks.

All the vehicles in the TT were used either by Israel, or the people that would make up Israel. The only questionable one is the M22.

Lets not forget that the copius amounts of “COPY PASTE STUFF GAIJIN” is already prevelant with the actual equipment nations in game use. Imagine the exact same if they go and pretend Israel was a thing in the 30’s forward by just grabbing every other nations stuff and throw it in to make a full tree for giggles.

And? We found an L3/33 in Iraq… should we put it as an 8.0 premium for a future middle eastern tree? They were used out of neccessity because it was all they had. Israel didnt exist in the time those vehicles were actual mainline use (many of which werent even mainline use to begin with). Atrificially making some tech tree to make it “fit” with other nations would be beyond pointless, let alone completely not historical.

You can go ahead and shorten it to

That’s all that matters.

The people that would become Israel used em. Not to mention, there’s already subtrees. Israeli people using a vehicle makes alot more sense than, for example, france using Benelux vehicles

Israel indeed captured a good amount of T-34-85 and SD-100 (Czech version of SU), even though there is not much coverage about them they did serve in the test units for about a year after the Suez crisis. According to Michael Mass there was even a department in Makhshar (Technology and Maintenance Corps) that specialized in Soviet tanks like T-34, SU-100, IS-3 and later T-series tanks.

Same about IS-3, some were used in test unit for a brief period of time, some were paraded. But unlike aforementioned tanks they were used in combat at War of Attrition in 1969-1970, but in untraditional way as artillery bunkers in the Tempo (Okral) position on the Bar Lev Line, the engines and transmissions were removed and more ammunition was carried in the back of a tank for the purpose of being indirect artillery.

I really hope tier I-III will be a thing in 2025, I have a feeling about this, even if it is a tier III update

So much copy paste will reduce the number of new Israeli players, remember that you still have to research rank 3 EEUU/Brit/France to unlock this nation, so I dont see it important. In my opinion ofc.

+1 any addition to the struggling israeli tech tree is great

+1 It Is very good for Israeli TT! I think you can add also the H35

Another tank i think Gaijin can add intro the Israeli TT: T100. The T100 was used by Egyptian in Israeli-Arab war and Israel captured a limited Number of them.
