I think chinese navy is next at bat, actually.
Which reminds me to dig through potential chinese bluewater suggestions…
Are you ok, bub?

Its less empty than you would think in the interwar/ww2 era, actually.
Yes I just hate the double standards that all
If the Germans ask for an F-16 then why can’t we have the same for our tree ?

to be fair the F16 asked its the argentinan F16, also regarding the Centauro B2 nah everybody was calling out on russian mains for that, cuz that was some hard bs, or well at least the ones asking for a centauro in the USSR tech tree

Or alternatively why the heck can’t we have domestic options, I’d much rather them than some bodge job addition.
Don’t get me wrong, there’s additions like the Rooikat, the Ystervark and Olifant which I really enjoy… just why can’t we have stuff like the Chieftain Mk.11, the CVR(T)s, Green Mace (yes that thing), Tracked Rapier, Contentious, stuff that’s British?

and ours we ask are through the Commonwealth statement so eh we are more or less in the same boat
Small detail, smin himself stated Commonwealth is not at home in the uk tree

Cause both are dumb and neither should be in those trees. Leo is German and F-16 is not needed in German tree. UK have 13 MBTs on rank VII-VIII yet they keep asking for more, meanwhile Germany have 10 and also no 11.3 premium which UK have. And Canadian Leo is gonna fill that gap for Germany like it or not. There already is C2 Leo in Germany, so there is precedence for Leos going to German tree.
Only Bs as far as I know. Very few if any imported As. It probably would have gotten Cs if it was retired in 2012 not 2006

I get that logic in the sense that Argentina has and will continue to be a nation that provides vehicles to the German Tree (proposed Pucara iirc was going to be German, and the TAMs are a thing)
However ignoring the fact that it made Britain actually competitive in Air, I don’t think many peopke actually liked the Gripen. I certainly don’t love it
Tornado FSP was around before 2011 and had C-5, so if they’d stuck with the original OSD it probably would’ve got it. alas, they did not.
I’m not asking the UK to be turned into a commonwealth tree there a difference.
I want them to use the public statement to fill holes and atcually brings some species to the tree.
(India shouldn’t be used nor any other Russian friendly nations)

Boxer tracked always looks goofy to me, like a legally distinct puma or something lmao
I’m sure we had this discussion before somewhere but iirc we concluded it probably didn’t fit them operationally because of retirement in the same year.
That said, I’d imagine that it would’ve been test fitted while C-5 was under development, iirc AMRAAM Cs have some slightly different fins
Russians ask for a tested Centauro
The haters : Silence
I don’t think people were quiet when someone suggested to add the Centauro to Russia (Which I personally think that was a ridiculous idea to add a Centauro to Russia when Russia has better options in mind.)
