If it’s different make it premium otherwise it goes to clutter the tree
Wether it gets the light tank or medium tank class in-game entirely depends on Gaijin.
I’m expecting it to be a light tank in-game, just like the M8s
’ 80x M10 combat vehicles have already been delivered but are still expected to receive funding in FY 2026 for program support, covering sustainment and maintenance for two battalions.
(However, follow-on procurement of the M10 will be halted) ’
yea like BMP-1 and likes are gaijin-classified as LTs
// but it would’ve been interesting to see a top tier modern ‘medium tank’ (non-MBT), if the designation was made totally official ~ and Gaizilla had to agree accordingly
I mean, it weighs almost as much as certain MBTs, its top speed is similar to that of an MBT and it has a 105mm gun
I feel like the armour is going to be the deciding factor. If it doesn’t have good protection it’s most likely going to be a light tank in WT
It’s allegedly resistant to 30mm rounds on front and 14.5 on sides, but I can’t find any values so I don’t actually know. Another reason why it shouldn’t be added over something like the XM1302.
Indeed. As we have previously already explained. There are no plans for this currently. Hence why they are a sub tree of the British tree.
Hey Smin, I was curious to whether or not I-Derby ER is planned for next update to help SPYDER?
I was hoping the community update would mention it but unfortunately not.
Hey. Its too soon to go into spesific details about what new ordinance may or may not be within the next major. This is the sort of content covered in dev streams and the dev server for what new things come to the game in that regard.
Any chance at a hint if we might see something Indian soonTM or are they more a “longer term plan” currently?
Very much enjoyed the last addition of the Marut (even if an event vehicle) and just hope to see something like that if not this patch then in the near future ^^
Any possible chance for UK/Japan/Italy/France to get their 3rd coastal lines?
Time to target is so long many are probably just going to lose lock
Is a top tier AESA jet coming to sweden just like china and the ef-2k nations?
Please say tuned to the news for more details on whats coming this update. We are only a couple of blogs in so far.
when can i expect the next devblog?

Spoiler
Probably Monday or Tuesday now

Next week.
It’s going to be mediocre no matter what it’s classified as. However at least when classified as a light tank it’ll be basically pointless instead, while when classed as a medium tank it would be completely pointless in game.
