Major Update “Tusk Force” - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

I’m still waiting on a lot of our wheeled light vehicles. The LAV’s (the ones we actually produced/used), and not just the 25, but the 105, 150, 600, and 300. More Strykers, HMMWV’s and what not. Same with missile carriers, it’s insane to me how we only have one, and it’s not even technically TT. Could have a dedicated line just for them.

I don’t have to be careful, theres already British players who begged for the Swedish CV90’s because of BAE saying they were entitled to the CV90’s so they clearly are.

What haven’t they asked for?

The funniest I remember was quite a few asking for the Gripen E from Brazil back when the Gripen A/C were first added.

Im surprised there isnt threads asking for Saudi / Kuwait Typhoons.

Yeahhh the UK tree is pretty lacking in the ATGM carrier department too, less so than the US, but there’s some fairly iconic ATGM carriers that the UK just doesn’t have.

Humber hornet when gaijin 203mm hesh ATGM lmao

Gaijin is just kinda allergic to non-M113 with tows ATGM carriers or something.

Ferret Mk5 would be a lot of fun

It’s just sad that most of the ATGM carriers that the US can get are not very good unless we get more bigger maps (which we should).

Same for Germany… though even in general there have been few ATGM carriers added. I can’t even remember the last one added for any nation. Possibly the Zachlam Tager?

(Personally I'm looking forward to...)

Jaguar 1A3: Similar to the RakJPz 2 but it gets applique armour (20 mm front, 10 mm sides), HOT 3 missiles and a gen 1 thermal imager.

Jaguar 2: The same but with TOW 2 missiles and a deleted bow machine gun. It also couldn’t be fired from within the hull like the 1A3 could.

Wiesel 1A2 MELLS: Same as the 1A2 but now with MELLS missiles, a gen 3 thermal imager, and a roll cage. This only entered service in 2022 though so it’s not that surprising to not see it yet.

Graif in 2.33 I think? Non-M113 would be Object 775 in 2.31.

I do love a rat ngl. I really need to get round to grinding out the German tree, I’d love to rat in the 1A2
Personally my wants are:
- A late Striker, the current one in game is about as early of a Striker as you can get, and technically shouldn’t have some of the creature comforts it currently possesses.

Late FV102 Striker

- The Humber Hornet I mentioned earlier, very silly thing, fires the Malkara ATGM, slow & awkward to aim (MCLOS), but had a 203mm 26kg HESH warhead, which for those playing at home is 9KG more than the FV4005. Probably wouldn’t be meta, but would be very silly. Would need an ammo crate though, only 2 + 2 atgms carried.

- The FV103 based systems, the Belgian FV103 with a milan firing post, the FV120 MCT, and possibly the test bed for the RS4 RWS Javelin firing trails. Not much to say here, I just like CVRTs.

- There’s also all the things with Vicker Viglant ATGMs, basically would be a british SS.11. The most well known example is the Ferret Mk.2/6

The funny thing is that the Striker in the game is the Late version with the Early 3D model, it already has thermals, something that only the Late model had.

@Smin1080p_WT Is there any official reason/statement as to why the German tech tree is still denied its KF41(perhaps the Australian trial version)? When the Chinese tree just got a tank, China does not operate unlike the operator country, Thailand…which is not getting it.

Is there any intent from the Devs to remedy this double standard?

Official answer will be like “doesn’t used by Bundeswehr. There is a lot things that can potentially added to Germany tech tree”. We both do same work… But i started a lot more earlier.
