I mean to be fair any other additions from them would be BRs/Ranks below the Gripen.

So if this is just focusing on stuff on stuff the can be adding in the spaces in the screen shot then it makes sense but if it everything then ya missing South Africa is a problem.

To be fair, the SARC was adopted by the British

I mean, the Olifants are upgraded Centurions, so I feel like they have a place in the British TT even without ZA being a subtree

Can’t get that (or the Impala, Mwari or any of South Africas Mirage F1s), gotta get copy paste from various other nations instead

Can’t believe it took so long to get a Scimmie, so ZA air (and scorps) is probably going to be another when did I start playing again, May 2019? Scimmie was added October 2024, call that 5 years, already been a year since scimme give or take so, 4 years? At least by this logic we’ll have both Scorps and the Cheetah by 2034!

Gaijin is a masterclass at adding only what is popular and will sell for short term numbers, instead of investing wisely in what will bring long term numbers. It’s basically a rug pull that exists for many years before occurring. In the future they will definitely try to sell the idea of a “War Thunder 2”, because War Thunder 1 was ran into the ground by poor investment and bad decision making.

It’s only been two years since South Africa made its debut in the British air tree, give Gaijin some slack!

I don’t know fighter aircraft 10.0 - 11.3 but big gap between Hunter F.6 and F-4M Phantom FGR.2

Tornado F.2A before Tornado F.3

UK tech tree none aussie Mirage III

India can make a whole 4 lines tree so it’s really as they like tbh
Then can fill as much as they want to

that’d be it

I just assumed it would be your standard 90mm HEAT slinger considering it was on a light chassis

ah, then a better fit is needed, without searching my brain comes up with nothing, closest i could say would be a land rover with a recoilless, but thats different

oh I never meant to say the Oli’s didn’t fit in the tree, i was just saying that there are british built alternatives / equivalents

and the Hunter F.6 is dubious at best, better since SRAAMs were buffed though, its a 8.7/9.0 airframe at 9.7 because of a gimmick missile. I don’t know about others, but if the SRAAM was just deleted in game from the F.6 and GR.1, I would be a lot happier person, so really its a 8.7-12.0 gap,

without subtrees that area with a proper fighter would be difficult to close, but maybe P.1154 (Supersonic Harrier with Red Tops) could fit

otherwise an Aussie Mirage / Cheetah would be fit fine

When is the new update WT CDK? There are many complaints about the malfunction

the “Best” option would be one of the Simba based options, but you loose the size advantage

Not only that but you also have Australian and Canadian stuff to think about too.

still waiting for the rest of the DDRs tanks and planes in the german tec tree.

Yea the CDK is pretty much unusable. Only a handful of maps work but they are missing lots of textures, every time you add a unit there’s an error message and god forbid you try to add anything like a base or airfield since the CDK just instantly crashes. Can’t even show the units without a 10 minute freeze and crash. Hell you lucky if the CDK even starts in the first place without crashing.

If it ain’t earning Gaijin money it’s a project not worth developing.

I’m almost certain that the Leopard 2A4 premium in the French tech tree doesn’t sell well, because people don’t play France to use Leopards. It’s a very, very bad option.
There are Mirage 2000 prototypes with AESA radar, Mirage F1 variants equipped with MICA missiles, and more advanced Mirage 2000 versions like the -9 — so why on earth add premium equipment that already exists in other tech trees instead of focusing on what actually makes the French tree unique? It makes no sense.

Yeah, and that’s a mission for… nation folders!

@Smin1080p_WT, can you please hint if we will see a WW2 premium pack for Japan this year? (Like Hell on Wheels)
