Yeah exactly, I mean if Israel is the bar, then such trees are acceptable, but if Israel is below the bar, then the question becomes why are they an independent tech tree rather than a subtree? However, I don’t feel like Gaijin have really properly confirmed where the bar is set.
For bluewater, there’s of course the Austro-Hungarian navy from WW1, which was a major power with plenty of warships to offer. Unfortunately nothing really that is post WW1 for bluewater. As for coastal, I don’t know too much about Austria’s stuff, but Hungary had a fair few interwar, WW2, and postwar gunboats, and I’m sure Austria had some things too, as well as of course the WW1 Austro-Hungarian brownwater coastal vessels (which Austria-Hungary was a world leader in, so there’s going to be some good stuff to offer there). Of course overall it won’t be the US or Japanese naval tree, but it doesn’t need to be, it just needs to be good enough.
There’s a whole Hungarian ground tree suggestion on the forum with loads of vehicles, so Hungary will have plenty to offer don’t worry.
Then it will be a mire hungary austria tt, there is also a alpine techtree suggestion, and austria is only on line
