when the swiss hunter was added as a SQDN aircraft. That was and still is a pretty hated decision as gaijin didnt announce the swiss as a subtree for two more years. Without the signalling of a swiss subtree it should have been a squadron vehicle in the british tree, because thats where the hunter is from.
wasnt there already the F-86K in that spot for 5 years?
two years early is excessive is it not? Gaijin needs to work on transparency significantly if thats the case.
did the hunter controversy stop gaijin looking at argentina being a subtree?

Ye, that would tbf the best IF it ever comes
they can make the SU30 stand on its nose but harriers are still a brick fresh out of the kiln
im praying for it as its my 3rd favourite modern MBT behind the leclerc and my child the streetfighter
they should change the “add on armor” modification for the m4a3a8 to the thunderbolt vii added armor
tbh its that or only the British tree I dont see it ever only going to germany, it was never intended to go into service with germany where as it was a contender for the LEP. if germany suddenly turned around and said that they actually do want the Challenger Rh 130 over the KF51 then yeah sure add it to only germany but realistically isnt gonna happen lol
Never intended for British service either btw and the kf51s currently isn’t even wanted for the bundeswehr

as a vehicle in the tree for that BR.
there wasnt a gap to fill in the TT there
Could this mean Syria is a subtree for Russia due to squadron Su-22M3, or was it just added to Russia since Syria had no subtree in any nation and Su-22M3 is a Russian jet?
part of a british project
Still waiting on the Su-30MKI and now Mig-29K :(

lets not open that can of worms again
wouldn’t every varient of every prop overcrowd the tech tree?
No? It was a German project to test the 130 and compare it to the french asclon. The British allowed it because well they wanted to see how the 130 would fit or something.
The LEP was British the chally 130 was german
no thats what folders are for

We dont announce a full sub tree until its ready to be shown or talked about in more detail.
Again, the same as the Indian T-90 and Thai F-5 too that preceeded their sub trees.
The only exceptions being what we dicuss in CM disclosures regarding larger and longer term plans. Like Greece, Singapore etc.
It wasn’t added to take the F-86Ks spot? It was to help provide Germany with more CAS / AGM-65 carriers and a decent squadron vehicle. We made this clear at the time.
As mentioned above, we have already talked aboit Greece far ahead of time more recently. That also has had the opposite effect of what you described of people being upset its not here already. So it goes both ways.
It wasn’t really a “controversy” and no it did not. Getmany already had Argentine vehicles before it got the Swiss Hunter. It was decided long before that.

ahh yes then Gaijin better start buying folders we will need hundreds
unless you have something stating that it wasnt a contender for the LEP then idk what to say as I have seen mention that it was so again unless you have a statement that it wasnt
