You’d hope so and you’d think that given (from what i’ve seen anyway) that the most egregious balancing issues stem from some sort of Compression, that Gaijin might at least genuinely consider it, if not carry out some major decompression.
these 2 systems don’t protect the same layer, they are more complementary than anything else
as for Aster 15, it’s going to be upgraded with the EC variant, although it’s in a weird spot right now. The main missile of Mamba is Aster 30 however
“Don’t worry; we’ve planned for so much copy and paste.”

I mean forgive me but the Warrior CSP Turret (It’s got a proper name, I just can’t remember it), which mounts the CT40, isn’t that similar to something you guys use? Because now there’s a fair bit of crossover, so less effort?
I don’t know what to tell you. It wasn’t enough evidence, I’m sorry. I don’t like it and I may personally believe Challengers need some buffs, but there’s a fair amount of evidence that Challenger 1 and 2 are only really designed to be protected against 400mm ke.
I don’t really recall any bulletproof or conclusive evidence brought forward.
Japan in reality does not have so many vehicles that could be added.
Take MBT for example. Japan has 4 generations of MBT, Type 61, 74, 90 and Type 10. The number of their models is just above 10, and much of them have similiar performance, like Type 90 and 90(B), and Type 74(E) and (F). Japan only has one IFV and one wheeled scout vehicle.
USSR, on the other side, has several MBT families, like T-54/55, T-62, T-64, T-72/90, T-80 and T-80UD. They also have at least 3 different BMP families and the BTR-80 models. The Germans and the US also have much more ground vehicles in reality.
The reason why Japan can’t receive sub-trees, I guess, is its infamous history of aggression against surrounding countries and the poor relationship between them in reality. Adding vehicles from N. or S. Korea or China will definitely cause anger among the players from those countries. The same works for Israel. Now it seems that Gaijin has decided that Thailand would be a nice choice for the Japan TT.

If you talk about specially this turret, no we don’t use that (afaik).
If you talk about CTA40, this gun is 50% developed by both UK and France, both have multiples vehicles that use it.
But we have hulls and turrets in the game that could go together and make some easy additions quick to model (like amx13 hull and Am30DCA turret for easy ~7.7 SPAA).

Japan has two IFVs, but okay.
Guys, this is not a wishlist topic. Lets please try to keep on track. This is going way off the beaten course now.

Then add sub-TT.
They could have gotten a sub-TT for almost 10 years now.
Like GB got Australia since 2014. So why couldnt Japan get Thai, Chinese, Taiwanese or Korean vehicles since 2014?
Ok time to keep it on track, dobvleg this week maybe?

I think you know that it’s very disingenuous to imply the French defense industry produced more than a fraction of the Soviet and Russian Federation designs.
The Soviet Union is famous for churning out vast, vast quantities of designs, variants, prototypes and what have you. It’s just counter-factual to see other nations as remotely comparable.
I would like to ask if re-balancing a vehicle will also take a long time, since there are several dozens of vehicles that are waiting to be buffed or nerfed. For example, the T-80B and T-80U, or the T-72B twins.
If it costs you so much time to make some brand new vehicles, then it will be a nice option to devote some of your energy to fixing or balancing existing vehicles.
I think they’re in a weird space where camm is going to replace everything eventually but they’re still be using both side by side in the meantime as adoption is worked on. Both missiles are made by the same company and all that
devblog this week?
I can’t speak to whatever Gaijin’s internal reasons are, but seems to me they just put whatever is ready. Seems to me they throw in whatever, whenever it’s ready and call it a day.
So as I see it, any lack is a lack of sufficient quality and quantity of evidence and nothing more.
I hope
Not that simple
MBDA may be one company, but it’s still pretty segmented, and i’m ready to bet the french aren’t going to abandon the aster for CAMM any time soon, especially considering there’s a fair margin to upgrade them still
I’m not gonna say that we are close to the number of vehicle Russia have tested/developped etc… I have no real idea of the real numbers.
But i’m also pretty sure that in the same way, you have no idea of the shiton of vehicle France worked on, sometimes just dozen of differents turrets on the same hulls etc…
