Political saying to leave the possibility for new nations open, just like they said they are working on english light tanks / french, japan spaas, this could still need years until the next nation gets added.
They first need to fix israel and make japan a bit better before they think about adding a new nation
“We plan to add these bonuses in a future major update, planned for October-November 2023.”
That is a funny few years lmao
The bonuses for researching a new nations =/= a new nation.
doesnt mean they need to add a new nation for that update, they can add it to benefit the old nations and rewards older players to try sth new
Can someone remind me why people keep asking for a sub-tree for Japan, again?
So again why did they need to add that top line if they aren’t adding a new nation ?
They could of said,
Bonuses for researching new in-game nations as we introduce new nations,
it becomes increasingly challenging to capture the attention of veteran players.
They have already traversed the ranks multiple times, and therefore,
each new journey through a different tree becomes less captivating.
Because Japan has a lot of gaps to fill, which it cant on its own… or Gaijin will take years to fill them even when they can be filled natively
If you don’t like the addition of a sub-tree you could just skip those vehicles and play the only Japanese vehicles.
This a video game, not a nation simulator. Games need balance
First Puma ifv atgm rocket ( EuroSpike Spike LR missile launcher, and KF-31 and last KF-41 prototipe missile unknow )
Okay… and?
Its a game?
Maybe people should consider adapting to play around those flaws?
By adding a subtree of an allied nation which doesn’t quite warrant its own tree to fill gaps and flaws which would also IRL help the JSDF
Oplot-M maybe squadron vechile

Such as…? Taiwan? The USA? Last I checked Japan isn’t exactly allied with many Asian nations.
It’s just F-16AM/BM MLU only but not F-16PM
Maybe Thailand? They were allies back then still in friendly terms as far as I know.
Oké then, what “new” nations do you think gaijin could add?
Let me go first:
BeNeLux, Yugoslavia with poland, ASEAN.
What more?
To be fair it teased a new nation and rank VIII ground in general, not for this year.
Rank VIII ground in 2023 only started to really become a thing with the olivia T-90M mention and the “more Leopard 2s for Germany this year” statement from Smin last update.
Japan still has stuff to add Air and Ground, Gaijin just prefer to take a Type 16/10 and add another P to the name and call it a day
Japan has links to other countries, Thailand as mentioned, maybe it becomes a tree for other Asian nations, maybe it borrows tech from the US forces stationed
Plenty of suggestions have been put forward, but if nothing happens Japan gets left behind… and at the end of the day its a game, and there is money to be made for Gaijin
Britain could get the Warrior CSP
yugoslavia with poland? i’d pair poland with czechoslovakia but not yugoslavia
