Mitsubishi J2M6 Model 31 - the last Raiden, the last suggestion

I know this is getting off topic but the Boeing B-17B (Early) Flying Fortress would suck in all the right ways and should be added for that reason alone

+1 as usual.

Alright bro you can go do Cold War vehicles now )))

It’s sad that it has come to this, WW2 has created a HUGE amount of vehicles that “too many” is really too few, and your suggestions show this to be true even for a country as small and limited on options as Japan is.

This is unfortunate, as Malaysia could have brought the CAC Sabre with it.

First, from the Cold War era I could only write about 10 proposals (aircraft and ground vehicles) for Japan.

Secondly, I don’t like writing suggestions for modern vehicles because I don’t fully understand most of the technology used in them. I struggled mightily with suggestions for the FS-T2 Kai and the MiG-25P.

The suggestions I’ve managed to write represent only two-thirds or even less of all the aircraft suggestions I’ve planned. One could add another 100 suggestions to the existing aircraft suggestions for Japan, and there would still be aircraft to suggest, 50 more suggestions to tanks, 20 more suggestions to helicopters, and at least 70 or more suggestions to ships. That’s a huge number of possible suggestions that gajin could completely ignore.

This really should be a sign for Gaijin to add more non-top tier content. Especially because this is only for Japan alone, only until 1945 and only aircraft specifically. A lot of nations in game have significantly more than this even, and then there’s still even more nations we just don’t have in the game such as Poland for example.

The 20s through 40s have just brought so many unique vehicles, as well as many more even after that, but for some reason the game seems to just be rapidly progressing towards the modern day and leaving all of these behind.
I really hope once they are done they won’t just let the game die, because with it we would lose what may be the only chance to ever see many of the lesser known missing vehicles in a game.

I wish I could be as optimistic as you. The last Japanese WW2 aircraft was the B7A2 (Homare 23) added on July 26, 2023, and the last vehicle in the tech tree was the A6M5 Hei added on March 10, 2021. Japan is the most neglected nation in War Thunder in this regard.

Agree I am sad there is no A6M8 as its the last of the much beloved ZERO. To be honest I loved the A6M5 when it was placed at 4.7 as you had an awesome line up.

If you have an excel file of vehicles not submitted that would be cool to have. Though I know not every plane or tank is viable in game a million old Biplanes is a bit much.

I have it as a large file in Notepad. And it’s really large, at least in my opinion.

Poland mentioned 💪💪💪
