Also China should’ve got PLZ-45 before PLZ-05 … Gaijin speedrunning again to latest modern equipment

I’d rather have the tor for Soviet tech tree than the pantsir NGL.

Yeah it still confuses me why they didn’t just add the TOR at the same time they give China one. But nah they surely needed the Pantsir to say competitive…

i just want a variety of cool looking ships seeing the same turet layouts are getting slightly old

“F-117-1 OCIP” Comes across as oddly specific on the leaklist. Anyone know what that can mean?

it would have made sense if russia didn’t have the ka52 and Su25SM3. But then again, there is italy as well. #JusticeforItaly

OCIP 1 is the upgrade package which gave it access to GBU-27.

wonder if it will come stock with GBUs

Yeah, same. That is one of the main reasons Id take KGV or Nelson over something like QE/Warspite. They use different guns and in a different layout. You can go from Hood to Barham to Renown and almost not notice you even swapped vehicles.

I mean it would have to since it has no weaponry besides bombs. Wouldn’t suprise me if they gave it 2x 500lbs dumb bombs stock.

Probably 500lb Paveway II.

Would be one of the worst stock grinds in game I reckon

Because it takes away from the reasons to grind out the US tech tree and defeats the purpose of having trees to begin with. If you want to fly the F-117, you should have to play the US TT to do so.

Like, if we apply the standard of evaluation being enough to justify a vehicles inclusion into a TT even if the nation in question doesn’t desperately need, then US and Russia together would probably render most of the minor nations, and even Germany, redundant. I don’t like that.

I’m not saying WW2 wasn’t important to China, just that using that as a reason why Singapore should go to China doesn’t work. WW2 was incredibly important to a lot of nations. It doesn’t really connect China to Singapore, anymore then it would to, say, the US or Britain.

Oooh… rather than Britain getting the F-117 can we get BAE Taranis:

You mean like adding a Mig-21 to the British Tech tree?

The MiG 21 was added through the Indian subtree.

Which is also stupid, but not comparable to a British F-117.
