That is not the case, there are 3 CM named there, each for different parts like Bug reports, forum mods, national mods etc. And well Stona Smin Orson and Magazine are the most active out of CMs, i have never seen rest of them.
And there is also this
This actually got me on the question of why doesnt French main do the same, yes Algeria hates France exceptionally(well the French killed a fifth of Algeria), but what about other places
Just give me anything F-2. F-16AJ is a joke ;.;.

If you want to see the reaction of french mains when it comes to adding subnations, just check the BeNeLux case, the reactions weren’t so clear cut, but a good chunck was actually unhappy with the addition of foreign vehicles in the tree.
Since i’m somewhat one of these people, i can explain my motivations by :
- potential delay of native french
- gap filling with leopards and whatever else instead of native leclerc protoypes
- it gives a reason for gaijin to not work on the bug reports pending for years now, because their impact on gameplay are somewhat softened by the arrival of said foreign vehicles
- add a bit of national bias for homegrown vehicles and the fact that france doesn’t need a subtree, and particularly in the modern era
that’s how it goes for me, to each his own reasons, i don’t pretend to represent every french main
TLDR : i grinded france to play french stuff, not F16 and leopards

Be careful what you wish, BF109F-2 is also “anything F-2”
Several years have passed, but the gaijins still ignore the reduction to real characteristics and functions of the Stinger, Mistral and Type 91 MANPADS. And at the highest level, Japan has the shameful Tan-Sam SAM without a phased array radar at 30 km, which it has in reality, LOAL and ARH homing head of missiles at 14 km. We say hello to the Pantsir S1.
And yes, 80-90% of the maps in the game are absolutely unplayable for high-level SAMs - aircraft/heli can jump out at your respawn at low altitude and shoot you from behind a hill/mountain/lowland with impunity. Another part of the maps is designed so that if you try to leave the respawn on an SAM (to hide from aircraft/heli), you will be instantly shot by enemy equipment. Oh yes, it is very realistic for SAMs and SPAA to stand next to tanks in direct line of sight of the enemy.
Complained by Britain mains as well
I guess challies just suck but leclercs doesnt
Same for Britain
I am not British(but I probably own more British vehicles than 90% of British players in this game)so I cant make a definitive comment, yet if you look at chaps like morvran you can see that as well

yep,
well tbh i think there’s also a good chunk of UK mains opposed to foreign vehicles tbh.
But some like to troll on the indian Rafale in particular (french/bri’ish shenanigans and not a real wish for some, i suspect)
I won’t pretend to know the proportions of each group (opposed / supportive of foreign vehicles) for each nation though
Type 81 could possibly get its radar soon alongside the ARH since multiple systems sams are confirmed technically type 81 is one of them, it could even be one of the first as a test.
