WT isnt NATO vs Warsaw Pact. We have 10 nations, not 2 alliances
I’m saying that is the reason why we are getting F-16 and Mig 29s in every post war tree
Define unique, because if a nation ingame got copy past from nother ingame nation thanks to it’s sub-TT, i really have hard time to see where is the unique thing there.
And literally only one full WaPact country which is ridiculous.
Not every NATO nation had F-16s and not every red nation had MiG-29s
If there is some basis, yes
Some things you wish is grasping at straws
Looks at Kiwi F-16 for UK tech tree
It’s a whole that need to be filled but if you don’t want that then we can always get the F-14 that the MOD was looking at
The UK has no hole needing to be filled atm
Well, except the gaping one above 11.3
Some things should be unique, others should not.
F-14 and F-16 are good examples.
I think that a nation that exported its vehicles should assume that they will not be exclusive.
If you sold your plane or tank to half the planet…
There will always be exclusive options for each nation. It must be assumed that the exclusive will represent a lower % of the TT, adorned with a lot of filling.
This is what i was talking about.
Canadian CF-18 are one thing. An F-14 that a british minister sniffed once is entirely different.
If you don’t like the Tornado and Phantom, tough biscuits.
We’ll get something for 11.7+ when the time for a BVRAAM platforms comes
Even worse example…
There are few additions which would help but it still tricky
There’s Sea Harrier FA.2 with AMRAAMs, Tornado F.3 AMRAAM package (forgot the name)
But that’s still not much
Ideally (as I said few times in past), Canadian Hornet would be great filler
Ah yes a 700MPH jet can fight against a 1,300 jet hmm
For the record, I’d much prefer unique British airframes. But we’ve already been hard denied the only truly competitive airframes Britain can get.
What’s left for Britain would be heavily carried by their missiles (and we’ve been hard denied their historically accurate missiles at that)
Britain unfortunately is going to need a C&P.
Best options are:
- NZ F16 (more real than the F16AJ)
- Canadian or Australia F18
- SAAF Gripen C or RAF Gripen D
Though I do hope we actually see the Sea Harrier FA2 sooner rather than later
War Thunder’s biggest problems is that it is built around WW2 combat.
Well, I’ve never played air post-early mono-wings I’ve made it to late cold-war/early-modern on the ground.
and is painfully clear these vehicles aren’t made for War Thunder combat/WW2 combat.
