There’s only one country that needs a sub-tree now, Japan.
Israel can get one, but it’s not as needed.
All other 8 tech trees are solid.
Well, outside Soviets in 4 years when gen 5s exist, but we’ll get that later.

france…
They just needed a good excuse to jump into it to maximize profits. It could have come even earlier if they were going to time it with Top Gun since that movie got delayed.
At the end of the day, it’s more that gen 3 was the stepping stone for gen 4 and in the same way, gen 4 is the stepping stone for gen 4.5. The more we leap frog, the quicker everyone gets their toys as opposed to waiting multiple updates of US/RU back and forth.
Yeah, France is solid. Great ground that needs no augmentation, and air they have the best 12.0 at the moment that’ll turn into one of the best 12.3 - 12.7s with MICA RFs.
Japan do require a subtree, but clearly it’s hard to pick

I have to agree with you there Benelux or Poland is my guess
and i was reight, so funny huh? then you must like becoming into a cookie
Not that I’m against it but why does Japan need a sub-tree?
The only missing thing they have is top tier SPAA which Gaijin said they’re working on and we know there’s a few candidates. Once that’s sorted, the tree is pretty complete and still has vehicles that could be added over time.
the literally have a literal gap between 9.7 and 11.7
Because there are not many vehicle left for Japanese ground force

War Thunder being as, and sometimes more, realistic than DCS
This is not even remotely close to true, DCS is far closer to real life even if its missing some systems we have on our aircraft and some flight model data that simply can’t be recreated.
Ground & air augmentation.
F-16AJ can get replaced as well, R2Y2s can finally be replaced.
Far more CAS potential for air as well.
& unique ground vehicles.
@Nowel
Gaps are fine so long as the RANK has a viable BR.
The issue comes when rank 8 is introduced and rank 7 has nothing cause all the Leclercs are in rank 8.
Time will tell.
@AdmiralSnackers
Yes, DCS & War Thunder will miss systems & flight model data, that doesn’t mean they’re not realistic.
War Thunder had supercruise years before DCS [DCS got supercruising this year].
War Thunder had accurate landing physics years before DCS.
F-16C in both WT & DCS handle identically.
A-10A in both WT & DCS handle identically.

Speaking from real life, WT is not close at all. DCS presents a much closer simulation to how our aircraft handle and how our systems work. I play WT for the more arcade feel of it, even Sim doesn’t compare. But we can continue this conversation in DMs.

It definitely was a great way to reel in cash, don’t think the F-16 and MiG-29 could have come any earlier tho
I really hope they’ll start considering doing something about the extreme compression at the top if they keep up the pace. I’d like to be able to keep flying Phantoms n stuff without having to eat AMRAAMs all day
i play wt bc DCS occupies half of my disk’s space+my gpu isn’t a racing car like an RTX 720
USSR and US fighting alongside each other and against eachother at the same time
everybody hugging the ground no matter what the battlefield looks like
using SARH missiles at altitudes below 1.5km
lmao
and most tank games cost a lot of money
They said they may work on a solution for Poland and other countries too
Lol yeah I mean I was more talking about the actual aircraft and weapon system handling but if you wanna go into that argument then that’s fair too, although DCS you could put both on the same side too if you wanted
Isn’t that fine? Why add vehicles from other nations into Japan when you can just go play that nation?
I can understand if there’s like a critical gap that cannot be filled, but in the case of Japan, the only thing that comes to mind is the aforementioned SPAA issue which might be resolved anyway.
Hold on there, the last stance on this was the AJ would not be removed.
I think they could have done it earlier and people would have adapted as usual. However, what better way to rake in money than put two iconic fighters in the update before holidays where people are loaded with cash ready to spend lol.
I do think they’ll eventually decompress but right now the compression is kind of intentional. The new additions need cannon fodder to wipe out so that you an feel the natural progression into a better vehicle.
EDIT: I guess multi-quote is borked.
