NORWAY - DENMARK - ICELAND
INTRODUCTION
This is an idea i have for a new nation for War Thunder wich includes Norway, Denmark and Iceland. There are plenty of vehicles from these three nations to create a new nation instead of introducing new subtrees, and both Air and Ground will do just fine here, with the strongest part of them being the naval branches, as these are after all so-called “Seafaring nations” with long traditions at sea. Below i am going to show you folders describing each tech tree with images of them.
Splitting up tech trees, and max having one to two subtrees for the nations would be the absolute best thing to do. Not only would it make the grind easier, or solve the 5 lines problem that we currently have, but it would give so much more content to the game. New tech tree vehicles, premiums, event vehicles, battle passes, other history events. This would be a benefit both to players and the developers of the game. Another positive thing about this would be that players have a wider variety of nations to choose from, each wich requires a different playstyle. And if you, for example were a fan of Swedish vehicles, you won’t have to grind through a ton of other vehicles, planes or vessels to get to them. It is as they said at the beginning of the 20th century in the Norwegian Navy, it is better to be many small than to be few and big!
There are as i said plenty of vehicles form all three of those nations, especially naval vessels wich would make wide and unique branches, as a fact, most of the vessels are of own domestic designs! And considering that Sweden and Finland are in the exact same situation here, there would not be enough space to merge everything in one tech tree. It’s certainly possible but it would only include a small fraction of the vessels that could be added from these nations, yes even the unique and special ones that would be awesome to see.
But, judging from how much longer and greater connection Norway, Denmark and Iceland have had together, I believe that these three are a much better combination, as these have an extensive history that extends over hundreds of years. This is a very long story that I can not include here, but in summary it happened a lot over the years, and one was differently United but the Norwegian-Danish union actually spread over a period of 434 years ( 1380 to 1814). This is something that has greatly changed the culture and language of both countries to what it is today, to a much greater extent than what Sweden has. And Iceland has for an even longer period been part of both the Norwegian kingdom and the Danish and has a very deep connection to these countries.
If this techtree were to one day be implemented, there are a couple scenarios i could think of that would happen. It would have to be named Norway, and be introduced as a Norwegian techtree to at a later point not so long after have Fenmark introcuced as the major subtree under this nation. This would be as so far Norway is the biggest part of the combined NDI trees.
Note that the trees are to show the potential, so the layout and
branches are not perfect and are still being worked on as you read this
GROUND FORCES
Spoiler
This is the ground forces techtree that i have made, i have tried my best to compare the vehicles with those in-game for the placements and battlerates. The majority of these vehicles are either built by the respective nations or modified, but it also features unmodified. It consists of ca 111 vehicles wich of Norway has the majority.
AIR FORCES
Spoiler
In the early days of Norway and Denmark’s air forces, they were building and designing their own planes, they also license produced planes up until the breakout of ww2. Some of these are qualified to be included in the techtree. In later years there has been developed missiles, bombs, various installations and modifications for a wide number of planes, even participated in the development of F16/F35’s. These nations were also the first export customers (“Operators”) of many planes of the military aid. This tree would bring some nice stuff
NAVAL BLUEWATER
Spoiler
These nations did never really operate a large amount of battleships, this due to a number of reasons such as cost, required manpower and need. Norway did for example decide to have a navy consisting of many small vessel (anti invasion fleet) instead of few but big vessels, wich resulted in many smaller destroyers and various gun and torpedoboats being built instead, But they operated some coastal battleships. Denmark used mostly cruisers and coastal battleships, and no destroyers.This tree will be a very strong part of this series, due to the vessels mostly being unique, both in terms of construction or amament.
NAVAL COASTAL
Spoiler
This branch would by far be the strongest and best part of this series, with a very large amount of domestic designed and built vessels in addition to a wide variety of domestic developed weapons and mofided stuff. and the best part of it all, they are very different. everyting from powerful gunboats and small and nifty torpedoboats, to whalers armed to the teeth or captured German vessels, to stealth battleships and history’s 2nd fastest naval vessel! enough content to last for years and years.
NOTE This tree is just half finished! the old one were just such a mess i had to use this
HANGAR MUSIC
Spoiler
What is a techtree without hangar music, every tree needs their one characteristic song!

CONCLUSION
Spoiler
I am not saying this should be the next nation to wartunder, neither the one after that, but that it should be seriously considered as an option instead of introducing new sub techtrees.
There is a lot of potential nations that could be added to war thunder, and i believe this could be one of them
- Canadian techtree
- Yugoslavian techtree
- Latin American techtree
- Polish techtree
- Korean techtree
- Multiple combinations from the middle east
- Norwegian techtree
- Egyptian techtree
- Spanish techtree
