It’s a very similar case, but at least we have photographic evidence about Swedish T-80U.

I understand there are photos of Sweden testing the tank. I was responding to the argument that a vehicle shouldn’t be implemented simply because it wasn’t painted in a Japanese paint scheme or didn’t use a dedicated model for Japan. The T-80U, among many other similar vehicles (like the JGSDF M36, M47, Swedish Mi-28, and AHS), weren’t built specifically for Japan or Sweden either. They were just the same vehicles from the military of the countries that built them.
The Mi-28 still had Russian camouflage and the red star on it, and the same goes for the T-80U.
I’m not saying whether these vehicles should or shouldn’t be added, but in my opinion, this argument is rather irrelevant. We already have plenty of vehicles like this in the game. If it wasn’t a problem then, why is it a problem now?

To anyone more knowledgeable, could this particular magazine be helpful? From what I’ve read it has info on the FX program.
I thought that was a problem, and I still think it is. Personally I’m not a big fan of adding non-existent vehicle.

-1, the amount of rabbit holes nations can go down if we start giving nations stuff that were “tested” by nations is too large, especially with NATO and Pilots serving on different countries aircraft quite regularly
F-22 for the British Tree because some RAF pilots flew them when they were being considered as an alternative to the Eurofighter anyone?

-1, Does Japan Operate the F-14? If they do get one then China gets the F-20A. If they did Operate it it would need to be Iranian operated

The F-14AJ is a joke

same for the F-16AJ and J-11A. like it feels like gaijin hates japan and china equally.
Like instead of F-16AJ they could have the mitsubishi F-2 or even at least keep the F-16AJ and put the mitsubish f-2 after it. Same for J-11A. J-11B is much much more unique and not copy paste at all, but gaijin added J-11A which is copy-paste; in fact, i would still be fine with J-11A if they folded J-11B with it

it would be too powerful at the BR the F-16AJ is, perhaps a prototype version could go there but I know little in that regard how that would work
I expect this is what’s gonna happen, it could be 12.7-13.0 depending on how the radar is and what missiles it gets
Such as?

I’d wager they mean the Ho-Ri Prototype and Ho-Ri Production, which in all fairness I’d love to see the things replaced with the actual Ho-Ri as approved for production but best save that for another topic.

All of japan low tier which is easily destroyed with 12.7mm fire. only japan low tier tank that is actually slightly decent is chi-ha.
Okay, but two tanks isn’t “full of paper tanks”, which was his claim.
