KF41- Australian lynx

Ideal British lineup: Canadian Leopard 2s, Australian Abrams, Indian Rafale, Su-30, T-90M, 2S6, Singaporean F-15, SA Gripen, and why not both Canadian and Australian F-18s, I see no problem with this whatsoever!

On a more serious note, no, unless there is somehow an independent Australian tree, then maybe as a premium.
It’s not like Australia would be exactly hurting for similar vehicles between the Redback and Boxer. And an Aussie subtree in Britain would have even less of a hole with how many British IFVs there are.

Even australian boxer wouldnt mske sense in UK tree. They have their own versions.

Would go as a premium to germany as well most likely

A sign of things to come maybe :)

Metaphorically, Germany also declined the KF41 AUS from the moment it entered the drawing board, as they already have their own KF41. So if we’re being technical, both nations “tested” the KF41 AUS, but the vehicle was only designed to be used by one of them.

Just because it was declined by Australia does not change the fact that the variant was created just for them, and is not one that Germany (to my knowledge) would ever consider using.

If you look at the design it is quite obvious that it differs in many ways from the production model given to Hungary, it differs because it was changed for Australia only.


True but as of the moment that is where all of their homegrown vehicles reside, and I would not want all Australian vehicles to continue being premiums or event, so it is only natural to put some in the tree.

Germany didn’t choose the Australia-specific model either, and yet, the KF41 AUS chose Australia regardless of if it was accepted or not.

Not opposed to that either, we can have both, representing both sides of the competition.

Specific, meaning a specific country that adopted it with their own model. Last I checked the Challenger 2E, Vickers Mk.7, and VT4 were not created for any one nation in particular, and since there is no good choice for an operator nation it is given to the producer country as an example of their export abilities.

If it was based on a British Boxer design I could see it going to Britain, but Britain had nothing to do with it so yeah, it should go to Germany.

Also Australia are now building Boxers for Germany.

M1A1 AIM is in the US, which has some modifications for Australian requirements

I think it’s pretty obvious that Gaijin only did this because they were looking for a convenient American squadron vehicle, not because they have any intentions of adding more Australian vehicles to the USA. Same deal with the Canadian Leopards.

And ? Its still a german devloped vehicle and thats where it would end up going.

Like i said german developed.
And last i heared UK does not use them either and australia is not a subtree of the UK. As a result UK has no rights to it. While germany does since they developed it.

Yes and the devss said germany isnt getting the hungarian model , sontake a guess what we are getting instead.

Kf41 is completly developed by germany. Its not homegrown. Look at the abrams as well.

Neither is the kf41. Rheinmetall just customises them to customer requests the base and technology behind it stays the same.

As a result the kf41 would go to germany

They could have chosen any export Abrams but they chose the Aussie one so I don’t think this is true.

The same thing literaly works on australian kf41 for the geeman light premium /squadron buddy. You are making your own grave😂

Besides that remembee gsjin said germany will get other kf41 variants at one point

I am in favor of unique customer-requested modifications or upgrades going to the customers. I think we just disagree on this.

Obviously I am not concerned if the UK uses the KF41 or not, but while Australia isn’t an official subtree they have the largest game presence in the British premium tree, so it’s only natural that some would spill over into the main tree at some point.

Not the KF41 AUS I hope?

KF31—>KF41 (Prototype)—>KF41—>KF41 AUS

KF31 is the very first concept vehicle, and the KF41 (Prototype) is the 2018 model. The standard KF41 is the vehicle used by Hungary and soon-to-be Ukraine, Gaijin apparently claims Germany won’t get this one. KF41 AUS is the unique Australian-tailored version in this suggestion.

So my guess on what we’re getting if not the KF41 production model would be the prototype from 2018, KF31, or a different IFV entirely.

The M1A1 AIM being foreshadowing to more Australian stuff in America is very unlikely.

And yet the KF41 was not selected by Australia, the K21 was. There have not been any trial vehicles to go to a tech tree other than the nation that trialled it (Such as the AH-64 to Sweden) or the nation that built it (Challenger 2E).

It’s foreshadowing that Australia is not a sub-tree of Britain and their vehicles can go wherever they fit most appropriately.

Remember that I was just stating my opinion, I’m not discrediting the possibility that Gaijin will add the Australian KF41 to Germany, I am just protesting it in advance.

If having a different opinion online is “making my own grave” then call me a professional gravedigger because I’ve got a lot of them.

Also Gaijin just gave an Australian Leopard 1 skin to Germany. And not as a market camo but as an official release.

I agree. But you are missing the point where australia is not part of the game and as a result it goes to the developer nation.

Uk has no right to it. It has been stated multiple times already that australian and canadian vehicles are not at home in the british tree.

Since australia is not in the game the best place to implement it is its home nation of germany.
Its the exact situation as the 2a4m can. Its specialy developed for canada and still went to germany. You know how many other leopard versions could have replaced the 2a4m can , which arent canada specific?

Yeah literaly doesnt matter.
Besides that were australian developed vehicles.
Not ones exported from another country.

Not a kf41 / a prototype which isnt a fully released version.

Hungary specific denied

Eveeything points to this since it the most finished version easy as that

Or just the kf41 aus to germany

Honestly the british playerbase is the most entitled Playerbase just demanding the whole seriously annoying. Uk has no right to every commonwealth vehicle this has been stated multiple times
