Hey. The specific Merkava variants the US got via events have not appeared directly in the Israeli tree.
We added other variants (even if slightly different) to Israel to still keep the event ones somewhat unique for those that obtained them. The same is true for the Class 3(P). South Africa has no shortage of light / wheeled vehicles.
Hey @Smin1080p_WT, we’re a bit stumped on a riddle. Can you name an iconic US “non-MBT” ground vehicle that you think would fit into the top ranks of the US TT? Specifically end-of-line :)
I’m sorry if this isn’t the right place to ask, but what about the Chinese M8? From what I understand, it lacks any differences with the event M8 in the US TT, aside from the livery. Is that just a one off, or am I mistaken?
A) No South Africa does not prevent domestic British things from coming (as apparent by the last few updates)
B) Spesifically this was about Class 3(P). One vehicle that we don’t have plans to bring to the British tree at the moment. We don’t rule out other South African vehicles being possible.
As I said, we aim to avoid it where possible or use different variants of it where it can be done. But for China’s lower tiers (particularly Rank I), there is not a huge amount of options. So this is indeed more an exception than the norm.
I disagree, the South African tech tree is the standard of what a subtree SHOULD be, comprised entirely of indigenous designs, and even a very copy paste subtree has their places, such as Japan. The problem is, Gaijin has just been using them to buff nations, which is not why people like sub trees.
I only disagree in the sense that the Viljante does make sense in the BR tt.
