Fair enough.

I didn’t say it was, scroll up. I suggested it to be a regional sub tree.
Canada belongs to Britain. Why there’s any Candadian vehicles in the U.S tree, and why another one is coming is a freak accident
Idk, most of what Canada used and uses is license made/export US stuff for aircraft, and tanks until cold war, with like 2 or 3 domestic airframes.
There really isn’t much British stuff in Canada
It doesn’t belong to Britain though, many Canadians would strongly disagree with you.
But there’s plenty of Candian stuff in the Britans tree.
For domestic Canadian designs, I am fine with UK, but stuff like grizzlys and cf-18, it is literally license made US stuff with very small modifications
There is a valid argument for the cf-18 to go to UK as a stopgap until typhoon, but if typhoon comes first update of 2025 it wouldn’t really be necessary
America didn’t use things like the Rizzly. Besides, Canada came from Britain, and let’s be honest, Britain, as a minor nation, needs the extra vehicles far more than America does.
They got 2 subtree already, and no they absolutely do not need most of the vehicles Canada would add, tbh Canada only a thing to please Canadians since it’s mostly copy paste or very close to copy paste
Well America certainly doesn’t need copy paste American vehicles

But if they had to come, would make more sense to go to America as event vehicles or premiums since they are just license made American vehicles
Those full lines of British aircraft(heck one line is spitfires until the Cold War and there are still spitfires to be added, simply put the air tree has more British than American(and in domestic and American aircraft are the minority)) and tanks would disagree with ya. Heck and majority of the “US stuff” used by Canada during WW2 (including its Shermans) was a gift from the British.
Also, it’s 8 domestic airframes(17 aircraft total) that could get up to 9-10 depending on how it’s counted
Centurion, Churhills(heck all the heavy tanks Canada could get are British), Hurricanes, Spitfires, Lancasters, Vampires we can go on. Almost all of Canada’s C&P is British(or at least had British involvement) and it’s enough to go until the mid-late cold war.
Odd, because all the Canadians I’ve talked to would say the opposite, outside a Canadian/Canada+ANZAC TT the British tree is the best place for Canadian vehicles.
It’s called lend-lease. Canada fought under the British Army in WW2. They used British equipment, British doctrines, British organisation, etc.
The only place this makes sense is:
- British tree
- Canadian tree
- Commonwealth tree

Well, as far as it’s looking, it’s a filler for both the U.S. and British tree.
I don’t control what Gaijin does. Most of us Commonwealth folks completely disagree with how Gaijin are handling Canada and Australia. It’s completely mind-blowing that South African and India are considered British sub-trees, and Canada and Australia are not.
To give additional clarification for those not aware. Canada and Australia are still Commonwealth Realm countries who accept the British Crown as their head of state. South Africa and India do not, they are only members of the Commonwealth of Nations.

Hmm, yeah that’s strange.
please tell me the properly domestic airframes that arent license made/modified US or UK airframes, also the whole british sherman gift thing doesnt make much sense since those shermans came from the US to begin with. its all mixed US and british copy paste except for the handful of domestic designs, which i support going to britain, and the few types of german modified tanks they have.
afaik no one else has easy eights so at least let the US have that as their own unique sherman type, i have an issue with british stuff and domestic designs going to UK, and i am not opposed to CF-18 to UK, but some of it does work better in US than UK
Edit: apparently japan does have an easy eight unfortunately, looks like US cant have a unique variant of our most prolific ww2 tank
Ok, full domestic:
FDB-1
Vancouver IIS
CL-84
CF-100
CF-105
CL-41
CP-107
And iffy:
Bolingbroke
CP-140
Ok, I missed counting/had to pull a few aircraft due to another issue since I last counted.
Expect for Canada wouldn’t have even had US-built Sherman if it wasn’t for the UK gifting them so Canada could switch its Ram and Grizzly production to just Sextons. Just because one nation built said vehicle doesn’t mean that the nation’s relations to the vehicle involve the builder.
Maybe in a bubble. and not to Canadian who a screwed over with that.
You want that because as the Americans win well all the Canadians get out of that is loss and being walked over.
Once again: “don’t like other nations getting your stuff don’t export it”. Instead, I’ve been looking to see the stuff we’ve exported.
Me watching US mains try to argue to end up getting two of the same Shermans instead of thinking hmmm this is just our tank but Canadian i wonder who they fought next to in Normandy and who was there head of state.
And the end of the Day the US can get a M4A2E8 but there is no reason to get this one

More like the US already has an “M4A2E8” as it’s this tank here:

Canada was just weird and called under a different name.
Tho it’s not like these ones were meant for US services as they came from the undelivered lend-lease for the Soviets(yes they have this in their tree as well), so the US was selling them for dirt cheap.
